I mean, there are some games I don't find fun, but I'd like to have for the sake of having them. Terraria, for example.

Why would you want to have a game that isn't fun? The only games I have that aren't fun are ones that I mistakenly thought might be fun. v_v

Well, why would you own a tennis ball if you hate sport? Maybe you have a dog who likes to play fetch, or you need it for the garage parking trick. It's nice to have games for their potential for fun, or because you're able to have a good experience with it with others. For example, I dislike Terraria, but I own it because my sibling loves it and it's fun to play games with them. I have the FNAF games solely because I appreciate the effort the dude went to in making them, but I wouldn't play any of them.

But to be fair, those are the only two examples I actually have. Most games I want for wanting's sake are like, visual novels I've read/watched people play through and appreciated, like Danganronpa and the like.

The game in mind that I would be interested in, but do not really think would be very fun is TIS 100. It's like a bad joke for a nerd who's WAY too into puzzle games (which I kind of am). Still, the TIS manual is very well done, with a ton of little jokes, fake To-do lists, highlighting, and the entire document looks scanned in. For someone who's interested in NS government simulation, which often requires reading through dozens, if not hundreds of pages of documents, this kind of thing looks right up my alley. But still - would I really play it? Eh...?

The following games have been moved from Gold Rewards to Silver Rewards:

Starting today, the Monarch's Game Bag has been separated into two sections: Gold Rewards and Silver Rewards.

Gold Rewards are rewarded to those who win the Monthly Recruitment Contest (as was previously the case) or Wintreath's Finest of the Year.

Silver Rewards are rewarded to those who win Wintreath's Finest of the Month, write 2 articles for official Wintreath publications, or gain 1500 recruitment points in one month but don't win the recruitment contest.

So I encourage everyone to start recruiting, writing articles (how about for the Orendi?), and getting active to win Wintreath's Finest!

Laurentus gets very excited.

Do previous recipients count? 

Lol where the hell have you been? That post is a year and a half old.

But no they don't. I'd have to go back through and give points to everybody who had won Wintreath's Finest and wrote articles before then, which would be a lot of people. Plus that'd give me 6 points (won WF 3 times before that), so I feel there's a conflict of interest.

You'll get a point from the Orendi RP coverage.

*is sad*

EDIT: Listen fuckers. No one dare touch Dark Souls 3 or Oulast 2.

Now I'd better do a fuck ton of recruitment, win every award imaginable between now and the end of the year, and get elected Wintreath's Finest of 2018. Don't fuck with me on this. 

*reaches finger out towards Dark Souls 3 and Outlast 2*

I'm not touching them, technically I'm not touching them.

*grabs a branch and reaches it to the games*

Still not touching them. 

Great news! I've added some games to the bag:

New Gold Games
7 Days to Die
Battle Chef Brigade
Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition
Dead Island: Definitive Edition
Figment
Hard Reset Redux
Hitman: The Complete First Season
Hollow Knight
Resident Evil Revelations
Sniper Elite V2
Sniper Elite 4
Staxel
We Were Here Too
Zombie Night Terror

New Silver Games
Little Nightmares
Sniper Elite

I did it! I won Wintreath's Finest twice this year! Now gimme muh Dark Souls 3.

@Wintermoot, could you do the honors? ^

And while we're at it, I'd like to use my points on Sniper Elite 4. Thanks!

With the new Ambassador Program rules, the following people have earned reward points for their service, courtesy of your Thane of Diplomatic Officers, Katie:

@Emoticonius 8 points
@BraveSirRobin 6 points
@taulover 4 points
@Mathyland 2 points

Keep up the good work, people, and I hope to see more Ambassadors earning dem big stacks of rewards points!

Yay, congratulations, keep it up, but stay away from Outlast 2.

Also, @Wintermoot, I feel like "The Cake is a Lie" adequately sums up mine and Gerrick's situation.
