User blog:D. Cello/It's Monday, Monday, gettin down on monday...



Hai hai, fellow wiki members. Penultime "getting down post", I'm on the sixth post of a seven news challenge -- only wednesday left and you will never hear a reminder of that damn song on this wiki again XD

I would like to open this news post with a little bit of info acquired: we now have the NAMES of Ezio Auditore's SON and DAUGHTER. That's right. Confirmed in the Comic Con 2011 Panel by one of AC Embers creators (sorry, I couldn't hear his name over the crowd, maybe someone on the comments can fill this out for us), Ezio had two children following the events at Constantinople. Those two kids are named Marcello and Flavia Auditore, and they both will play a very important role on the animation by Ubiworkshop. You can hear the confirmation and info at approximately 0:19m:15s at this video recording of the Assassin's Creed Panel made by [www.gamespot.com Gamespot]

Following that, our new piece of info is wikirelated! We now have a new, redesigned main page portal, with new, very pretty buttons and more info in the same space. Well, actually, its around 50% bigger, but trust me, our first prototypes were a LOT bigger.

I spent a couple of days figuring the best arrangement of buttons out of 15 possibilites and over 600 combinations (and doing the coding... I hate the coding), but the ones truly responsible for the execution, with Special Credits for this new arrangement, goes to/are:
 * Lord of War... Clown -- responsible for the awesome icons
 * Apprentice Uditore -- Who gave me the half-height button idea and actually made those bars.

So that's it, peeps. If you like the new portal, give your kudos on the comments.

To finish it off, I would like to share with you all a Ezio tribute video made by one of our own.. The video, called Ezio's Farewell, is a music tribute to Ezio Auditore made by our ComDev Sick-Steen. It is pretty fun, so make sure to watch it! (and follow him if you have a Youtube account ^^)

Also, make sure to check this blog out: Apprenticeship for Dummies. It's a blog made by one of our apprentices, Udi (the same one who made the bars for the main page) regarding the best ways to make yourself stand out here on wiki and initiate your path to awesomeness. To be honest I have *not* read it, but she is a good bambina (even if just a little weird XD), and I told her I would announce it here when she finished it. =P

That is all for today. Look forward to the next blogpost, where more AC info, wiki info, useless info, or all of the above, will be present once again. And if you ever need of help or love, the staff is here for you.

Cello out.
