Prometheus is busy helping members get their sites registered with search engines and thinking up new contests. If you see an error or have a suggestion for an Elysium Gates contest (all contests are listed in Olympiad) be sure to contact him with the details.

I ran into Lady Kythera Ann while she and Pegasus were flying around Elysium Gates. She and Pegasus are very excited about the staff having picked another Elysium Gates Outstanding Site for the Elysium Gates Hall of Fame. The member site that received this award went to the site called " The Valkyrie Conspiracy" This is a great site with with lots of interesting information about the history of Hitler assasination attempts during WWII.  Lady Kythera Ann says she really enjoys reading her books.  Be sure to visit it!  Also be sure to visit the member picked Elysium Gates Site of the Year Recipient!  Charmaine Fine Arts
