First of all, I need to thank Zefram for the huge amount of work he has invested in to this community as Head / League Admin, and also as member of the CDT. For those reasons, Zefram has been added into the Extra Staff section. It is common knowledge to most already but for the few people who haven’t heard what’s going on, please check out this previous article.

 As a result, changes had to be made to ensure the success of the upcoming season and more importantly to guarantee the maintenance of the NSL while bringing more games to competitive NS2. I would like to announce that in accordance to internal discussions, a new staff roster has been selected and is hereby effective immediately. It’s my pleasure to introduce our new staff members: Yaluzan, Tico, Warforce, and Vindaloo. While I’m at it, let me add that these changes may be modified in the upcoming weeks in order to get the most productive staff possible.

 One of the biggest changes is to split the Head Admin position by reimplementing the League Admin title in addition to Head Admin. They will work together in running the NSL, with the League Admin focusing more on tournaments, including the regular season, while the Head Admin focuses on managing the NSL staff and members as well as having the final word in discussions. Tudy and myself will be handling these roles as League Admin and Head Admin, respectively. To help run and organize the regular season, continental admins will also be added: Tico as the NA Admin and Yaluzan as the EU Admin. The Referee Admin, now in form of Vindaloo, remains, with his field of activity focusing on managing Referees and everything related to rules. Feathermonster will take care of the Casters in addition to running the NSL’s Social Media (Twitter, Steam group announcements, and website calendar). Sephy and Unique still handle the gathers and NSL Teamspeak, respectively. While each staff-member has his or her own task area, we all continue to provide feedback and advice to each other.

 There are no other changes for anything associated to the website itself at this time. We are still looking for motivated people with the ability to work in a team to code for the website (Ruby knowledge required). You can also help by becoming a referee or caster -- just contact Vindaloo or Feathermonster, respectively.

 As conclusion, let’s wish the new staff success in bringing us more matches and events in the upcoming months. Stay tuned and also join the NSL's Steam group, to be informed about Season 6, which will be on its way very soon. We hope you will all enjoy what we have planned for the future of the NSL.
