Welcome to issue number ten of round number eight.
I am afraid I must start by apologising for the length and content of the Buzz this week. It has got to the point that we are desperately short of regular writers and both Coastie and Afty have been unable to submit an article this week. Joke and I discussed this morning whether to delay by a week or at least provide you all with something, and because I am writing this obviously you can determine our decision.
Joke and I have bought to you a number of our "weekly" articles including Once Upon A Time and Behind The Name. Joke also has decided to go on a world tour of Bootleggers and starts up a Crew Of The Week piece. This week pays homage to Death Valley.
I urge anyone out there considering to put an application into the Buzz to do it, your involvement can have real positive impact on the community and I am sure you will get far more out of it than you may think - please use the Bootleggers Buzz page, to submit an application from the drop down box.
Again I am truly sorry about the strength of this issue, I had hoped to do far better.
Behind the Name
Joke
Each week we have a discussion with a few random players to help everyone get to know them a little more! The victims this week: Fuckle, Redherrings and JMurph
To start off this series, we'll start at the top of the list, and with the family at the top of the Stats, and the first to have members at the top of the States Page, Death Valley!
It's time we bring back a favorite feature and add a little humor to the Buzz with a small collection of jokes to hopefully give you guys a little laugh...
