Nominate Worlds To Promote

Thus far our header has two WORLDS "promoted" - the Watercooler and the Bootleg News Reporter. In general there are three criteria we look for when promoting WORLDS to this position:

(1) Frequency of updates - The WORLD should be updated about daily

(2) Overall quality - The WORLD must be of a certain level of quality

(3) General interest - The WORLD must be on a topic that most of our audience would find interesting (i.e. no personal or ultra-niche WORLDS)

If you feel that any other member-created WORLDS should deserve this honor please nominate them in the comments here.
