A new reign begins on the GW Amp site today. A new herald of the Site Manager title has been chosen and his name is Wyat_Hawke.
For those unaware, outstanding staffer/member Kanna recently stepped down as Site Manager for the site. In his departure, a new SM was sought to fill in the void. Kanna will be missed as staffer but I am pretty sure he isn't completely leaving the site. I would like to be one of the first to thank him for his time and effort he placed into the site on a daily basis. Also please give congratulations to Wyat in his new position for the site.
With Wyat taking over as SM, we are considering opening up to take on new staffers. Stay tuned for news on seeking out site assistance. If anyone has any questions feel free to contact Wyat or myself.
Stay tuned to Gameamp.com for more news on Guild Wars.

Usuallys, new is about things that happen. But on a few occasions it warrants to report on things that didn't happen. Because they didn't happen. Just so you know about the calamity you just avoided.
For instance, millions of WOW -and not to mention movie- fans can collectively sigh with relief as:
| QUOTE | | “I got in contact with Paul Sams of Blizzard, and he said, ‘We will not sell the movie rights, not to you…especially not to you,’” Boll revealed. “Because it’s such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it.” |
Most shocking is probably Boll's calling a movie of his (albeit one he's not allowed to 'make') bad.
Too bad there's no news on the movie Blizzard already announced to be working on during Blizzcon 2007, but we at least now know it won't be a Uwe Boll abomination. Which must come as a relief. I mean adaptation, of course.

Ever wanted to try a particular race and class combo in Arena play? The tournament gives you the chance to make your ideal gladiator. With your three available character slots, you can freely experiment with different combinations - and coordinate with others to craft a "dream team."
When you create a new character on a tournament realm, it will automatically be leveled to level 70, be fitted with a basic set of gear, be given a tidy sum of gold and appear in one of the designated starting areas. Handy NPCs in the vicinity include skill trainers, gear and item vendors, and Arena battlemasters. Everything you'll need to prepare for the Arena Tournament battles ahead is conveniently located right in your starting area.
The Cost is $20 per account, for the entire 6 week period.

Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. today announced that World of Warcraft®, its award-winning, subscri-ption-based massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), is being prepared for release in Latin America. The Latin American localization will be based on the existing European Spanish version but will feature entirely re-recorded in-game speech. This new version of the game will be rolled out in select markets throughout Latin America starting in the first half of 2008 and will also be available to Spanish-speaking players in the US and Canada at that time.
A dedicated Spanish-speaking team is being assembled at the Blizzard Entertainment offices in Irvine, California and Austin, Texas to ensure that Spanish-speaking World of Warcraft players based in North and South America will receive high-quality 24/7 support in Spanish. Positions are currently open on the company's customer service, quality assurance, community relations, and web teams, and a new official website for the game's North and South America-based Spanish-speaking players is in development.
| QUOTE | | Making World of Warcraft more accessible to gamers around the world has been a longstanding goal for us; Spanish-speaking players on our North American realms have already shown a great deal of enthusiasm for the game, and we're pleased to be able to offer them a fully localized version. |
-Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment.
Further details on pricing in local currencies for Latin American players, as well as country-specific availability, will be announced closer to release. Also closer to release, Blizzard will provide details on language-pack downloads and character-transfer options for existing Spanish-speaking players on the game's North American realms.
