The Zelda Eternity Summer Marathon; ZE/ZW Merge

SkermefatenPosted on July 27, 2011 by Skermefaten

Well hello there Zelda Eternity readers. The time has come to announce two very important things! First off, as you must have noticed from the title, another Zelda fansite has merged with Zelda Eternity. That site would be Zelda World.

For those of you who don’t know me, hi there! I’m Skermefaten, your new webmaster. I was originally the webmaster of Zelda World. I began Zelda World back in July 2010, and during its time of being live it did much better than I originally expected. It came to a point though where I wasn’t in a position to be able to run the site anymore. So, seeming how I was close with Zelda Eternity and I was a huge fan of the site, I approached Mike with the idea of merging. And well, here we are! With the merge, Zelda Eternity won’t be changing name-wise or anything else of the sort. We’re basically shifting Zelda World into Zelda Eternity’s current setup.

However, Zelda Eternity does have new staff members from Zelda World, as well as some new content. ZE’s newest staff besides myself are DodongoBomber, Nick, and Prince Deity. You’ll be seeing them around on the site real soon.

As for the content, ZE now has a Twilight Princess Video Walkthrough from Zelda World that is in progress and should be complete in the near future. Not only that, but the Ethnicities of Zelda section has been revamped. As you will see there is a neat little navigation system and each race has or will have an informative article written for them (such as this Gerudo article and this Sheikah article). Plus, the Epona Side-Quest guide for Ocarina of Time has been redone. Work will continue for all these sections, and of course more content is coming for Zelda Eternity in the future.

Now, onto the second order of business. We’ve got our summer marathon set for August 1st at 5:00PM EST, and it will span for four days! The marathon will mainly feature Garrett and Richard (Richard now runs Nintendo Guru) from last year’s marathon, as well as DodongoBomber and myself. In this stream, every canon-Zelda game (excluding the DS titles) will be completed. This year’s stream is sure to be even more awesome than last year’s, so don’t forget to be there! We do apologize for giving you such a short notice, but we still hope you can make it.

I look forward to working with Zelda Eternity as one of the webmasters now, and myself and the new staff will be sure to help make Zelda Eternity a better site then it already is.

Remember guys, August 1st at 5PM EST!

Oh and enjoy my userbar. ^_^

    I have a camp that week, but luckily it won't be all night, so I'll only miss about a 4th of the stream.

    Guys, this is great news. I am quite serious when I say that the ZE marathon last year was the best part of my entire summer, hands down. Also, it really brought together a great community, so hopefully it can bring in some new ZEers this year as well.

    Secondly, I think the merge is a great idea, since both ZE and ZW members know and support each other.

    But I'm wondering: will you guys allow audio guests? Because that would be super cool and other synonyms for awesome.

      Of course we'll have audio guests. Due to improved networking capabilities, the stream can handle a lot more activity, and we shall try to book as many entertaining souls as possible.

      See you guys there,
      Richard.

        Don't worry; I've memorized the first half of 'War and Peace', and I can recite it at will. That's sure to keep the chat members interested.

          You do that while Richard recites "The Raven" and I recite the entire script from "The Princess Bride", and we're sure to attract/repel thousands of viewers. =D
