[Ann.] Official Public Release

(url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/")EV-Nova.net(/url) is now up and running. What is it, you ask? I'm glad you did that (and if you didn't, I don't care, I don't have time to write up a PR thing for each and every one of you :p).

(url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/")EV-Nova.net(/url) has been designed from the beginning to serve one purpose: a centralized location for EVN users (I say users rather than merely players because of the variety of services (url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/")we(/url) provide aren't limited to the gamers) to come for all of their needs, such as storyline help, provided by the (url="http://"http://www.evula.com/survival_guide/")EVN Survival Guide(/url) (which, by andrew's request, isn't up yet). The (url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/forums/")Forums(/url) are not just an alternative to Ambrosia's own Nova board (we're not trying to compete, just providing options), but it also hosts the progress logs for Nova plugins that are in development.

What are some of the other services? Why, I'm glad you asked again (in case you can't tell, I'm responding to voices in my head). (url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/")We(/url) also provide limited webhosting for Nova plugs (more information can be found (url="http://"http://www.ev-nova.net/services/hosting.html")here(/url)).

Who is running this show? Iron Eagle and I (EVula, in case you don't know how to look to the left) are the two main people behind this site, and we've both been around for a LOOONG time (not Viagra old, but we've been around a while). We've played EV, we've played EVO, and in my case, I've beta tested EVN -- who better to run a site dedicated to the latest chapter in Mac gaming? The other three people who have helped build the site into what it is now are David Arthur, Starkiller, and DarkSkies. David Arthur needs no introduction; Starkiller is the webmaster for the (url="http://"http://ucplugs.evula.net/")Upcoming Plugins Directory,(/url) and DarkSkies is another oldie (he used to run evnews.org). This roster is hardly static -- if you think that you can help make an even better resource to the community, feel free to drop us a line at (url="http://"mailto:support@ev-nova.net")mailto:support@ev-nova.net(/url)support@ev-nova.net

Nice site - good job, EVula. You could perhaps cut off a few hyperlinks though, couldn't you? : )

Bravo, although I currently hold the record for self promotion in a single post: 66 links (one for every letter in a sentence) in 8 minutes. 🙂 Check the EV-Nova.net Forums for the actual post, I can't remember where it is.

It was fun, although it was still work. You can't allow yourself to have too much fun, as you need to stay alert enough to look for bugs (which show themselves rather easily) and typos (much harder to find). However, it was still a blast, and I'd be more than willing to beta test anything else for Ambrosia, if given the chance.
