Words From The Pokemon League Judge

I would like to begin this post by personally thanking the following members:

Cherkat
Deneves
FatherGoblin
KitsuneGin
LovelyStrife
Taterbud
toys4life

All of these members have chosen to become PokeFarm Supporters. The funds raised by these members have repaid the cost of keeping the forum software current and adding the blog feature. You folks have my sincerest thanks!

Advertising revenue from the site is still sufficient to pay the server fees so I don't want anyone to think that the site has any financial problems. However, some of the staff members have been talking about offering real prizes for tournaments and other special events.

These prizes are not big ticket items (we will not be giving away Wii's or DS's) but will instead be small fun items such as Poke-plushies and other strange import toys. I would like all of you to post in the comments ideas (or links) to small prizes you would like to see offered.

I know PokemonUSA used to give out badge pins at their card events but I know of no source to get such things. If someone knows of a source please let me know.

I also have a request to make. Does anyone here on the forum know anything about creating a browser toolbar? I'm interested in putting together a PokeFarm toolbar that would integrate with the forums, offer the RSS feed from the main site and be able to offer PokeDex features. I know all of the move data is not in our database yet but that is a lot of data! The level up moves are in but we are still adding in egg and TM moves.

(Thanks to Nana Nettie for her help on the PokeDex thus far)

In closing the state of the farm is good. I'll be renewing the server for another six months in October and all is well.

PS: If anyone wants to host a website on the same server (30 slots) I have some openings and the rates are quite low.
