Opening Statement

For the next 30!... oh wait we'll never see #60 cuz the year has only 52 weeks

Project Progress
Andrast (In Progress) - Lead: @Tyranystrasz
@jacenpeter has continued the terrain work on the southern part of the Ered Nimrais aka the White Mountains. And that also already concludes the changes in Andrast in the past week.
Anfalas (On hold) - Lead: @otho
Anfalas is currently on hold and will receive again proper attention once Pelargir is done.
Lamedon (In Progress) - Lead: @_Luk
Again one of the most active and progressive projects is Lamedon, mainly because really many staff member tuned into the various aspects this fief includes. This week we have some new terrain by @Demonataz in southern Lamedon, changes and additions to the locations Rendûl under the lead of @_Luk and Nan dawar under the lead of @Mandos, and lastly new roads in the north.
Lond Daer (In Progress) - Lead: @Mandos
This week's addition to Lond Daer is.... Hogwarts! Well not really but the school does indeed have some similarities to Hogwarts I think
Beyond the city walls we once more got some unique terrain by veteran voxeller @wodleth!
Lothlórien Vegetation (In Progress) - Lead: @Eriol_EandurBeyond the city walls we once more got some unique terrain by veteran voxeller @wodleth!
@Ryiw and I are preparing the last two regions of Lothlorien for vegetation jobs. I had to remove quite a lot of trees in region 4 to get light to the ground and space for the new smaller trees. We are also working on the new streams running down from the Misty Mountains in regions 3 and 4 and all trees in region 4 were pasted in.

Misty Mountains (In Progress) - Lead: @Emilio_ & @Finrod_Amandil- Eriol_Eandur
I have been busy with exams and Emil is still enjoying some holidays; so no progress from the mountains for once!

Moria (In Progress) - Lead: @Despot666 & @Finrod_AmandilEDIT: @aifendragon is just leading another Moor job while I'm writing the Times again! #aifen4valar
Despot and many other helpers, among them the chief fish @Credoo have worked and already completed another hall this week, intended for trading between Dwarves and other race's merchants from near and far.
Additionally we will close the pillar contest once and for all in a few hours and make our choice. Check the gallery to see what awesome submissions we got. We are also working on how we could reuse those creations that will not make it into the 2nd hall.
Pelargir (In Progress) - Lead: @Credoo & @kisosAdditionally we will close the pillar contest once and for all in a few hours and make our choice. Check the gallery to see what awesome submissions we got. We are also working on how we could reuse those creations that will not make it into the 2nd hall.
The Eastern Slum is finished, complete with a watch tower and a large dock! All the fields around the norther slums are finished now as well, thanks to many adventurers building walls and roads. Several houses were built this week, by artists... and adventurers! (I added a few good job pics to my collection.) Again, you lot who claimed sections need to get to it!

Closing Statement
So in case you have not gotten that yet even though I wrote it about a dozen times already in this edition, I'm having exams at the moment, and thus I'll also have an exam-related closing quote:
“I failed in some subjects in exam, but my friend passed in all. Now he is an engineer in Microsoft and I am the owner of Microsoft.”
