The West Star closes

Following the departure of Sim Leader Nick Buchanan, the GC today took the decision to close the Simming Cup winning Star Wars sim, The West Star.

The sim had been running since September 2010 and was one of the founding sims of Phoenix Roleplaying.

Phoenix Roleplaying wins five Simulation Cup awards

The results of the 2012 Simulation Cup have been announced and Phoenix Roleplaying has done very well indeed!

We entered a total of nine sims and five of them won awards in this competition, whose judges included our own Robert Longtin (although he did not judge any contest with Phoenix sims in).

Kvant won Outstanding Firefly Sim, with The West Star collecting Outstanding Star Wars Sim. 

Excellence awards were also collected by Fighter Ops, Greenleaf Skyplex and Jericho, for creativity, character development and originality respectively.

We will be receiving fuller feedback on our performance and these comments will be posted on the site as soon as possible after we received them.

Congratulations to the winning sims!
