LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS


Everything in Moderation

With Blue's recent departure, and having not heard from Damned in several weeks, we seem to need two new mods.

The Requirements:
1. Civility
2. Some html knowledge
3. The time to check into the club two or three times a week
4. The ability to spell better than =Door26 (believe me this one isn't hard)
5. And, of course, a love of all things Phantom

The duties are pretty basic:
1. Fave submissions (you should be marginally aware of dA policy violations & very aware of our rules)
2. Add new members to our watch and membership list.
3. Update the journal with phantom tidbits or thumbs when a contest is running or affliates when asked.
4. Occassionally scrounge up contest prizes (yes, being good at begging is helpful)
5. Communicate any questionable activities to the other mods.

If you are interested please note the club. A link to a sample of your html /journal abilities would be appreciated.

Literature

Remember that the mods have decided to start faving literature, so if any of our members have read some good phanfic here on dA let the club know. Some basic rules for literature submissions:

1. The works must meet dA's submission policies, especially on mature works (see their policy page here: [link]).
2. Completed works are preferred (there is nothing worse than waiting for installments that never come bec the author has tired of the story ).
3. Almost any type is acceptable: Canon, Alternate Universe, Continuations, Sequels, Crossovers, One-shots, Poetry, Vignettes, etc.
4. *Remember* We are an all age group, so either keep it clean or have the appropriate mature tag in place *and* have a sex/violence warning at the top of the submission.
5. The decision of the mods on any particular submission is final.

Thanks Everyone

Blue's Note to the Club
Hey guys this is Blue here! I wanted to tell everyone that I had such a fun time helping out here and seeing all of the awesome work ya'll have created. Unfortunately I've been having to deal with a serious heart problem that is interferring with my daily life. The great news is that I will recover with some hard work. Maybe i'll be back at a later date I don't know yet. Thanks for being so great!!

+ Announced on the 9th of March there is going to be a sequel to the Broadway smash Phantom of the Opera. While Andrew Lloyd Webber didn't reveal much he did say that the new musical will be set in New York City and that he's in talks with "Phantom in Manhattan" writer Frederick Forsyth about story ideas. Here is his video announcement:

+ Poll Results: Our Devious Members voted overwhelming against a second Phantom Musical based on the book Phantom of New York. Seems like AWL may be barking up the wrong tree.

+ We would like to ask everyone to not "favorite" the pieces we have shown on our page. Please follow the link to the original artist's page and give them one there. Truly it's not fair for us to get their glory. So please please tell your friends and spread it around!
