The Best of the Forum (BF2)Here are some of the best quotes of the past week or the most relevant topics of the moment:
Cat Named For Candy Bar Strikes Backhttp://www.zfgc.com/forum/index.php?topic=31586.0Praise the Dark Lord Snickers
In before whiny new members complaining that they don't know who Snickers is.
Respect Yourselfhttp://www.zfgc.com/forum/index.php?topic=31633.0With all the negativity on the boards, I thought it was time for some positivity! In the topic, all you have to do is tell us about a ZFGCer and why you like or respect them!
The only rule is that if you dont have anything nice to say about someone, dont say anything at all. You dont have to first be mentioned by someone else to post or anything. I'll go first.
Got a topic you think should be featured? PM 4Sword or Zidane!
Weekly Awards (WA2)A section for handing out awards to screenshots, graphics, projects, and other various things depending on what's happening around the forum.

Featured Project (FP2)Legend of Zelda: the Elemental Crystal by gotest
http://www.zfgc.com/index.php#?action=games&sa=view&id=88Editors' Note: The Featured Project section of the Weekly is hereby closed in its current sense. The Project of the Week on the site will be chosen on what appears to be the best project in the WIP section. This decision was mainly due to the inconvenience in setting up interviews, the fact that some very good projects are made by inactive people, etc. However, if you want to have your project featured, then PM us about it and an interview can be set up.Know a project you think should be featured? PM 4Sword or Zidane!Authors of this week's issue: 4Sword, Zidane
