Congrats sir. Tis a lovely time to have an anniversary (mine is tonight).

I'm humbled, and thrilled that we could play some small part in your lives. And as for the game design position; never give up. Keep sending out those resumes and keep trying. I did it for over 5 years and it was worth every minute I spent emailing, going to shows, going to conventions and finding some way, any way, to make it into this industry.

I think you have to special order it from IKEA.

Personally I disagree. A press release should be as tight and straightforward as possible, pared down to the bare minimum of necessary information.

The title of the press release and the first paragraph should both be written in such a way that they tell the entire story in as few short sentences as possible. And it needs to be clear and concise enough that it could be reprinted verbatim should an outlet choose to do so or to quote it directly.

Remember, most the people reading this may not have ever even heard of CoH. Taglines like:

Everyday Heroes

International Online Community Fights to Save Their City

etc.

"Faith Manages," though touching and loaded with history for some misdirects the 15 seconds most people will give your press release.

Besides, we don't need to appeal to external validation such as Babylon 5. Hiding behind a "similar" effort to justify our collective efforts rarely makes for center stage publicity.

Short of it: Press release should be about the now growing effort to save City of Heroes. Nothing else.
