The Official Kongregate Announcements Thread

‘Everything every user needs to know everyday’

I want this thread to be helpful, useful, simple and fun. The goal of this is to better keep users informed and hopefully show them new things going on around the site that they may have never noticed otherwise, which would ultimately bring the whole site’s community closer. I sincerely hope this thread will be beneficial to every user possible. If you failed to login for a day or even a week I hope that a simple read of my thread will get you up to date and on your way.

For any additions, suggestions, or corrections please either post a shout or send a private message to my account

If you see something that should be announced before I do feel free to contact me and I’ll try to update this thread as soon as possible. Please do not complain about any announcements that were missed or omitted.
