Starting next weekend running the IHL in the Central division and then starting the East and West Coast divisions of the HCL the following Sunday will be the biggest challenge of the ORLWorld to this date. Along with that we are building an entirely new frontend to the website and to the ORLWorld Owners, staff and visitors areas. It is a big challenge in deed. We could use some assistance.
ORLWorld Existing Staff
PadreBri has already agreed to be the IHL Race Steward and keep a record the statistical standings of the teams each week, for public viewing. He is also the editor of the ORLWorld Newsletter. He would appreciate any articles that you would like to be in it, submitted to him, I am sure.
Given has agreed to be a Pixelhorse writer along with Unionjack. They will write articles fitting both the Pixelhorse and the finalturn.com' s audiences.
Lenny271 will once again be a Race Steward, but will have the additional duties of keeping many of the records for both leagues.
Unionjack will be the East Coast Race Secretary for the HCL as well as the Race Sec for the Monster races in the Central division. He too is a Race Steward for the ORLWorld and will keep several of the records for both leagues also. If at some time his duties as Race Secretary take up too much of his time, he might need assistance in his Race Steward duties.
Mystic as Vice President for Memberships will be responsible for the membership drive, the promotion of GR2003 and being editor for the Whats New section of ORLWorld.com.
Indian Shadow was going to miss this next season of racing because she is so busy building our new 3D environment that will be seen through our browsers. We have put together a stables for her so that she can still enjoy seeing a stables of hers compete all season long while she continues her work. Long after the season begins she will continue to add new areas that we will be able explore as well as upgrading the existing ones at that time. She is currently working flat out to produce the Owners stables and offices so that they will have immediate access to everything in the ORLWorld during the season.
Miss Solar Slew will be very busy starting her Bird Racing Association season which will begin the same time as the HCL will. I hope everyone will follow this amazing sport that she started about a dozen years ago and give her encouragement since this is her first year that she has gone public with it. We still hope that she will have time to write some articles for us during the season.
I JimCougar am of course, President of the ORLWorld and my job is to try to keep you engage in the activities of the ORLWorld as best as I can. You will have to pay attention throughout the season because the ORLWorld is a fluid organization which means things could happen that might call for new decisions on your part. Whatever they could posssibly be if any, you will have fun working them out. As the HCL West Coast Race Secretary, IHL Central Race Secretary and ORLWorld Webmaster, I will both operate many of the races and provide you with many easily accessible images and replays of the ORLWorld activities.
Areas Needing Help
Game Data Supervisor
Where we will first need help with is the new information from GR2003. We need someone to supervise the organization of this data. We want to help all gamers by getting it organized and placed in easy accessible areas. Any who would be willing to compile information and send to us or to post it on their own personal sites and allow us to bring it up into our viewing window, would be greatly appreciated. Part of this is screen capturing all of the 3,000 horses along with their attribute screens. I could take some time to do alot of screen capturing if someone else was willing to compile the images in usuable form.
Members Only Supervisor
The next area that we will need help in is the graphics department. I am creating a Members Only area for the ORLWorld registered members. It will consist mainly of game screenshots of many up and coming games in genres that they will have an interest in. It will also consist of every scrap of information that we can get our hands onto of all the existing and future horse racing games in any format. I need someone to both collect images and to create the pages of thumbnails so that I can just post them in this area.
Vice President for Sponsorships
This is the last position and a keenly important one. This position is for raising money to finance all of our championship and post-season awards. They will also be responsible for ordering all of the awards and seeing to their distribution. The Inaugural Season's championship and post-season awards are coming out of my and Indian's Shadow's pocket. With the addition of a new league and a new coastal division we can not do it alone again. We had two choices on how to raise the money. We could charge an fee for participating in the leagues' activities or we could sell sponsorships/advertising. We have chosen to try out sponsorships/advertising for the GR2001 game engine leagues and if successfull, we will use this as a model for the New Breed League season. I will be more detailed about this in a separate announcement. The sponsors in a sense would pay for the trophy, plaque, etc. of a specific championship or post season award. They could name it anything that they chose. We will create nice banners for them and post them on the home page and in the 3D buildings as advertisment for them also. Their chosen name will be added to the championship or post-season award name and will be used each time that specific one is mentioned.
There are other areas that could use help and if you have specific skills that you think we could use, by all means let us know about them.
