Happy holidays, all you readers of The 'Shroom! As strange as it may feel to file issue 200 away in the archives, it's time to move forward to issue 201. You'll notice many of the aesthetic changes are carrying forward, though!
This is where I'd usually tell you about our holiday theme, but we already did the big milestone blow-out last month, so, this year, we've opted for a lighter, more relaxed December issue. We've strung up the lights, we put those shiny End-of-the-Year Awards plaques out next to the candy bowl, and we're all curling up by the fire, unfolding the paper in our hands and settling in for a long, lazing weekend read. Won't you join us?
Speaking of joining us, a once-a-year opportunity arrives! That's right, as of today, the Director Election begins to determine who will lead The 'Shroom through 2024! As a reminder, Waluigi Time and I are not running, so don't hesitate to jump right in, because The 'Shroom could use you! You have until January 13th to post a campaign, so if you've ever thought about stepping into the role of Director or Sub-Director, put your name on the page with a plan for the year (it doesn't need to be big or complex!). With the big milestone in the rearview mirror and a lot of under-the-hood changes to make things easier to swap around, it's a great time to get your feet wet and learn the ropes of the position!
Everything else announcements-wise, you can read in the Staff Notes. We've got a good selection of sections for you to read, including a new Mario section in Critic Corner and a game you'll find to be quite interactive in Fun Stuff, so go on and enjoy the issue and the holidays! Have a happy new year!
