This week Brianna Royce of ‘Massively’ waxes lyrical in her article Working As Intended: The forgotten fields of Green Acres

Personally I feel she’s under something of a misapprehension. The contact she’s regretting the loss of is still very much there in our game with our active EMs, frequent visits from Mesanna and the recent in game ‘meet the devs’ events.

As the nominations begin to be recorded on the stones some people might be wondering what it’s like to be a governor of one of Britannia’s cities.

Our intrepid reporter, Frarc, current governor of Jhelom on Drachenfels, has been kind enough to share his knowledge with us.  We hope you will find The Governor  to be interesting and helpful.
