Some of you may have noticed a change in the titles below your names on the forums! After some discussion with players in game, we have come up with a new title scheme that fits the Settlers universe a little better!

In addition to this fun update, there is a new program we're going to be implementing. We have a great and robust Player Created Guides & Help section of our forum, where you guys educate fellow players by detailing adventures and giving advice. After watching how much of a boon this is to newer people, we wanted to start up a small program to aid in identifying those who are helpful. Players who have created multiple guides and are well-behaved on the forums will be receiving a new title: Settlers Guide.

Every single week, a new winner is selected to win 250 gems. It can be a silly picture, an impressive production layout, or a really cool decoration design! This week, asaboi won for sharing something every gamer has experienced at one point or another (see what I did there?!):

The end of the year is here, and so is the time for making resolutions! Some of us will resolve to lose weight, or be nicer, or get that promotion...but what about our little Settlers? They must have ambitions and hopes for the coming new year as well! For this contest, we ask that you share what your Settlers are resolving to do in the coming 2013 year. One grand prize winner will receive 1,000 gems and five lucky participants will receive 250 gems for their entries!
