Just a quick community update: several people have noticed some familiar tunes coming from some YouTube videos recently. It's true, several videos from HookedGamers.com have asked for and received permission to use music from The Codex and The Heretic in their title sequences. There's some good stuff there, with some good coverage of E3. Here are some examples for your viewing pleasure:
Marvel Vs. Capcom 3
Dead Rising 2
Vanquish
LittleBigPlanet 2
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
We don't tend to announce this sort of thing on our site, but we've been receiving some indications of interest from the community and we decided to spread the word. Check out the videos above, and more on HookedGamers.com! |

Big news for our advertisers today. We here at Edgeworks HQ have been working for a while now on a custom, in-house stats tracking system called The Catacombs, which allows us to track site and forum activity, as well as analyze it automatically. It's a great system, and very helpful when planning future projects and initiatives.
Well today we are opening a part of that system up for the public, specifically the Ads tracker. Starting today, our advertisers can log in to a special section of the site, using their already-familiar Forum user accounts, and get up-to-the-second statistics and analysis of the performance of their ads, as well as a way to create new ads and renew ads that are coming to the end of their lives. Which brings me to the next change: the ad payment system. Rather than the clunky old "$20 a month" system we were using before, which didn't take into account changing traffic patterns or the number of ads being displayed, we are now working on the standard CPM system, wherein advertisers pay for a certain number of pageviews for their ad. This system allows for much greater flexibility for the system as a whole, as well as much greater reliability for our advertisers.
This is a quantum leap forward for the advertising system of EdgeworksEnt.com, and we're confident that our advertisers will agree. So if you've been thinking about setting up an ad on EdgeworksEnt.com but you've been holding back, now's the time to do it. Go check it out! |

When I woke up this morning, I noticed that there was already a thread about this being February 9th, the anniversary of Edgeworks Entertainment's founding. It's true, February 9th has come again, and this time is marks the fifth year since this community began. Five years! That's hard to believe. The release of The Codex, the announcement and release of The Heretic, the release of Vox Populi, this date has seen some big events for our community. So what have we cooked up this year, I wonder?
Well, we recently moved to a new hosting plan, which will ensure that Edgeworks can keep functioning for a long time to come. We've also got too many site updates to name, most prominently the move toward a custom MySQL database for Edgeworks content that will make updating the site much more efficient, as well as providing in-house stats tracking and customization.
Is your blood pumping yet? Are you totally stoked and jumping for joy about the back-end architecture changes to the Edgeworks site? No? Ok, well let's see if we can do one better...
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages, I have an announcement to make. Today, February 9th, 2010, Edgeworks Entertainment is unveiling a brand new, completely original, live-action webseries called Radical. And what's more, we've got a teaser for you. In fact, we've got a teaser, a desktop, three avatars, a media page, and a whole new site section and forum section for you to explore! We also have a Facebook page you can become a fan of, and an iTunes podcast will be up soon. There's enough new content to keep anyone busy for a good long while, and there's more on the way.
Over the next few weeks and months we'll be posting more news and content, as well as merchandise and sponsorship options for those who are so inclined. We're aiming to begin full production later this spring, and we will be announcing a release date for the first episode around then as well. In the meantime go watch the teaser, go check out the desktops and the production stills, but most of all, go spread the word:
Edgeworks is back. |

Just a quick update: over the next few days, we're going to be moving to a new hosting company. If all goes well there shouldn't be a problem, but there may be some downtime in which the site isn't accessible over the next few days. We'll keep you posted on when the switch is complete, and in the meantime, Happy New Year!
Update: The site is back up! We're still ironing out some links and functions, and optimizing the site, but you should be able to use everything as it was! I'll post another update when everything is fixed.
Update: Alright, all the features should be back up and running. If you find any problems with the site, please send them to troubleshooting@edgeworksent.com. |

Just a quick update: we have a new Edgeworks front page. This new page displays news from each of our productions separately, and includes a short description for newcomers. The newest post from any of our sections will be posted in its entirety, followed by three posts from each section. The section headers are also links to the different site sections, allowing non-regulars to more easily find their favorite series.
Also, please note: this design isn't final. We will be making a few adjustments and fixes in the coming days, but we thought we'd open it up as a sort of public beta while we tweak it. Please feel free to share your thoughts (and any bugs you might notice) in the comments thread. |
