Hi Rafonauts
Here's another quick rundown of what's happening on the discussion boards at RAFO.
From the Management:
- Ben (Nebhead) is working on Premium Account functionality at the moment. He's currently getting the PayPal integration part of that up and running so that accounts will be automatically enabled at point of purchase. Be prepared for an announcement in the near future about Premies!
- Interested in fashion? Want to win a prize? Look out for the Read And Find Out T-shirt design competition. Details will be announced on the CMB soon.
On the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Board:
- Join the Russian Book Club's discussion of Buddha's Little Finger by Victor Pelevin. And don't forget that the SF Book Club's choice for June is The Gone-Away World by Nick Harkaway!
- There are lots of rereads happening at the moment. Larry is reading Malazan, R Scott Bakker, and A Song of Ice and Fire. Rebekah (that's me
) is rereading The Wars of Light and Shadow by Janny Wurts. If you've read any of those, or want to, why not check out the threads on the board?
- Keep your eyes peeled for announcements about book giveaways and competition winners.
The Wheel of Time Board:
- The Board is going through a series of discussions about various characters, so why not join in? Currently, the topic is Thom Merrilin and Noal Charin.
- What's going to happen with Perrin in Towers of Midnight? Share your thoughts.
- Next book news: Towers of Midnight is now available for pre-order from Amazon. Release date is 26 October 2010.
On the TV & Movies Board:
- Have you seen Iron Man 2? If so, share your opinion in the discussion thread.
- Join discussions on Fringe, Glee, SG-1, Doctor Who, and more.
- Look out for the discussion on the final ever episode of Lost on Monday!
The Games Board:
- Get your virtual hands on a free copy of Portal for PCs and Macs.
- Newly released Red Dead is a hit!
- Starcraft 2 will be released on 27 July 2010.
On the RPG Board:
- The Mafia Game is into Day 6. Check out what's happening here.
On the CMB:
- Looking for something to do in the first weekend of July? Come along to RAFO's first Edinburgh Gathering!
- Grammar/language discussions heat up: what's your pet peeve?
- What do you like about yourself? Get some self-affirmation by taking Nossy's simple survey.
