In June, we asked for nominations. You responded, and we announced 19 nominees in August. Now it’s time to reveal the three winner of this year’s Squiddie (officially the Ongoing Worlds Medal for Superior Online Role Playing). Choosing just three winners from 19 excellent candidates was extremely difficult as many are deserving of a top-level award. However, that’s our job!Aug

What a SciWorld we had last month! In case you missed it, Bravo Fleet and Star Army partnered together to host the 2018 edition, which was an absolute blast! As far as we know, this was the first time that two different sim clubs co-hosted the convention. The first SciWorld was in 1999, and it has been held continuously since 2011. We believe that this year’s SciWorld was the 16th, but we’re not positive as many records from the early 2000s are no longer available. Read More

That’s right, SciWorld 2018 is today. See you over there.
We would also like to give a special thanks to Alexander of Bravo Fleet and Wes Davis of Star Army for chairing this year’s convention. Great work so far! We can’t wait for SciWorld to begin!

It gives me great pleasure to announce that the 2018 SciWorld Online Convention will be hosted by 2017 Squiddie winner Bravo Fleet & 2013 Squiddie winner Star Army on Saturday, July 28th! Obviously, we’re changing things up a bit this year. We’re holding SciWorld in the summer instead of the spring and you get two hosts for the price of one (actually, it’s still free).
If you’ve never heard of SciWorld, it’s a time when the entire simming and online roleplaying community comes together for one day in online chat rooms for engaging discussions, interactive trivia games, and live chat role plays. In short, we share ideas, information, and energy! Bravo Fleet & Star Army are on point to plan, advertise, and execute the festival. Indeed, it takes a lot of work to make SciWorld happen! Read More

What a FallFest, indeed! A veteran simmer friend of mine even commented that it was the best FallFest or SciWorld ever held. Believe me when I say that’s a high compliment coming from a distinguished individual! For those who may have unfortunately missed FallFest, a week ago, we had a day full of provocative discussions, live role plays, and interactive trivia games. Attendance and energy was phenomenal throughout. It’s a real testament to the power of our broader community. And as FallFest always is, it was a blast!
I’d like to personally thank everyone who had a part in making FallFest 2017 happen–everyone from chair Zachary O’Connell and his leadership team at Bravo Fleet to the event hosts to anyone who had a role behind the scenes, be it IT support, graphics design, advertising, simply inviting a friend, or something else I’m not thinking of. You guys rocked it! Finally, I’d also like to thank everyone who attended and participated. Without you bringing your energy & ideas, there would be no FallFest.
See everyone at FallFest 2018 in about a year. Read More

It gives me great pleasure to announce that 2017 Squiddie winner Bravo Fleet will be hosting FallFest VII on December 9th, 2017! Bravo Fleet’s own Zachary O’Connell will serve as the chairman. Bravo Fleet is a fantastic club with a storied history. We have no doubt that they’ll put on an absolutely wonderful festival a month from today. Oh yeah, Zachary O’Connell’s pretty cool too!

Earlier this year, we asked the simming & online role playing community to nominate their very best for our pinnacle award, the Ongoing Worlds Medal for Superior Online Role Playing (affectionally known as the Squiddie). You responded with 19 nominations for 17 different people, games, and clubs. And my what an outstanding group it was! The consistent high-caliber of the nominees made our job of picking winners extremely difficult. For that reason, I want to personally thank everyone for providing us such a great group to choose from… even though it made our job more challenging.
If you recall, Squiddies are awarded to only one person, one game, and one club each year. The prizes come in three categories (Excellence in Role Playing, Originality & Innovation, and Facilitating the Community Experience) and are awarded primary for actions during the prior calendar year. In this case, 2016. Without any further ado, here are your 2017 Ongoing Worlds Medal for Superior Online Role Playing Laureates… Read More
