TWOUS FONEDINI RETURNS

Twous Fonedini recently announced that he will be making a return to The City of Southside after a long vacation.

Twous is a respected player in the community and highly regarded for his fragging and grinding capabilities. Some of his achievements include: 1st player to raid Obsidian Crown Bank in Update 2.0, 1st player to obtain a Spookfest Mask during the 2021 Halloween Event, and production work in MonoLyft Update 2.0. The team here at MonoLyft News Network would like to welcome him back into the community and we wish him well re-adjusting to life in Southside.

Roger Gruezo, a five star driver, has extended his warm welcome and had a few words to share:

"oh he's playing again - amazing"

A CONCRETE CHRISTMAS?

Members in the community have become frustrated with the delay of Winterford, the signature winter map of Monoford.

Monolith member, HuskyD0G, has expressed his frustration with an image of a crying wojack.

This has sparked discussion and concern about the delay of Winterford. While the developer's commit log has been active with new features being prepared for the awaited XMAS update, they have been vague about the date of the map switch. Players are already beginning to fear the worst: Christmas in concrete hell, Southside.


MONOAWARDS FINAL VOTING

After much anticipation, voting for the 2021 MonoAwards has been announced and gone live!

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO WINTERFORD!

MonoLyft News Network has received word that WinterFord, the signature winter map of MonoFord, will be making its arrival to the server today!

For those unaware, WinterFord is a seasonal map that makes its return every holiday season. However, there has been a longer-than-usual delay in releasing the map along with the XMAS update. This has resulted in public outcry and placed more pressure on the developers to finish their work. With news of the map transition happening today, this will surely put worries and concern to rest as the community makes its transition to one of the most anticipated maps of the year.

Thankfully they went back to Winterford, wondering why there was a delay when Devultj makes it seem like it takes 20 minutes to set up

WINTERFORD ARRIVES!

WinterFord is now the prime destination for all Monolith members!

Witness the beauty of WinterFord! The snow has covered the entire city and the oceans have frozen over. Take a look at the team's favorite pictures of the new map.

XMAS UPDATE: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY.

The anticipated update has gone live, but immediately generated controversy for its choices.

The WinterFord map time is sunset instead of midnight, as it has been for the past two years. Curious of public opinion, we contracted the MonoLyft Data Collection Agency to run a survey. The results have shown that feelings are mixed. With half of the players explicitly liking / disliking it and another half having no opinion.

The new user interface has resulted in server-wide complaints. Many think that the server has taken a step backwards by making it less practical. Health and armor can only be viewed by holding down C, while not in combat. Wallet balance can only be viewed by entering the inventory using Q. While driving, the UI disappears completely and players now have to hold down C to view their health, armor, food, and thirst.

All in all, instead of having a persistent UI with all useful information displayed to the user, players now have to take 2 additional steps to view the information that was presented in the old UI. The MonoLyft Data Collection Agency ran a survey and gathered public opinion on this change. The results revealed that a majority of the community feels that the UI should have never changed.

We reached out to DevulTj for his comments on the map change, but he refused to reply.


MONOLYFT EXPERTISE UPDATES!

Our feature has been updated and now reflects the changes that arrived with this year's holiday update!

We scoured through all of our guides to update any reference to the old versions and map. You may notice that some images and GIFs have not been updated, this is because the WinterFord map is expected to last for six weeks. Given this short timeframe, we would rather wait until the release of the Riverden map and the codenamed "Milehigh" update to create new images and GIFs for everything.

HOW MONOLYFT HAS BEEN GIVING BACK

MonoLyft has been spreading Christmas cheer by hosting multiple charity events in the past few days!

Baljeet Wang and Juan Guadalajara have wandered the streets of WinterFord to look for lucky contestants to compete in our charity event. People lucky enough to be selected by us were taken to a secret location to play a game of Highest Number Wins. To play, the dealer would do /roll 100 and the contestant would do /roll 100. The person with the highest number would receive $5000 from the other.

In the pictures submitted by our photography department, the man in the white shirt was lucky enough to be selected and win $5000! Do not mind the guns shown in the pictures, the man feared for his life when the team approached him but his safety was re-assured when the team showed him their weapons.


THE GRINCH LURKS WITHIN MONOLYFT?

Shiba Shibalini has found himself kicked from the organization without warning.

One of our team members consulted with him one day ago to gather details. He claims that Pizza Vercetti has invited him to the organization three times since his first kick. Every time he re-joined, Shiba would find himself organization-less the next day. None of the five star drivers have been able to give clear answers as to why, thus leaving the question: Does the grinch lurk within MonoLyft?

PENNYSLVANIA MILITIA OR SANTA HAT MILITIA?

For the people of WinterFord or a menace to society?

The Pennsylvania Militia was the source of chaos in WinterFord this week. Members operating the "Guns R Us" store found themselves under investigation and later subject to arrest by the WinterFord Police Department. The store has been considered a sanctuary by the citizens of the city, choosing it exclusively for their self-defense needs.

When the police confronted the store owners, chaos ensued and the police quickly found themselves overwhelmed by the armed citizens on the property. Detectives and citizens who attempted to aid the police were also murdered and brutally set on fire.

MSIDE VS 666: THE CONFLICT CONTINUES!

The streets of WinterFord have been tainted with blood since the war erupted.

Members of both sides have taken every opportunity to foil the operations of the other. During a confrontation at Penthouse, 666 aided the police force and helped fight MSIDE. The shootout ended victorious for both 666 and the police. MonoLyft's own member, Kman Guadalajara, has responded to the call to action by temporarily joining 666.

MONOLYFT MUNITIONS REBOOTS OPERATIONS!

The subsidiary announced that it will be restarting its operations.

MonoLyft Munitions announced that recent events and orders from higher star drivers have prompted them to manufacture weapons exclusively for the organization. It shared that a goal was set to produce more than 40x XM8s and 80x G36Cs by the end of the year, a goal which has already been achieved. Director of Operations, Adom Alonso, stated that no additional information will be disclosed at this time. Cave Johnson, 5-Star Driver, was also there to oversee and assist the manufacturing process. Two individuals from another organization were also present on the property, however MonoLyft Incorporated has prevented us from identifying them.

MSIDE VS 312: THE WAR IS OVER!

Both sides claim victory in different ways.

The ongoing conflict between 312 (Formerly 666) and MSide has concluded. Leaders of 312: Glendal Yang (@Glendal gang), Kira Zoro (@Little Luck), and Jonathan Doyna (@Wolv), have been deported from MonoFord by authorities and sent to their respective places of origin. Without anyone to lead the remaining members of the organization, MSide claims a victory by technicality. However, 312 also claims victory since they claim to have had more wins than losses over the course of the war. Rumors have circulated that MSide informed MonoFord authorities about the immigration status of the 312 members, resulting in their deportation. Both the Chief and Mayor have refused to confirm these rumors.

Does the conclusion of this war mean less bloodshed in the city? Not quite. 312 is just one of the many organizations that MSide has been fighting simultaneously. Leaders Alex Archer (@Alx) and Ethan Verelli (@Ethann) have declared war on other prominent organizations such as
Nebula Clan and Valhalla.

MONOLYFT CIVIL WAR

Current, former and contracted MonoLyft members have launched a revolution to initiate change.

What caused this to happen?
Members apart of the Anti-MonoLyft movement have made it simple: Poor Leadership.

Lower star drivers have suffered from random organization kicks and harassment. Pizza Vercetti, four star driver, has kicked Shiba Shibalini, Adom Alonso and Baljeet Wang from the organization without valid reasons or prior notice. Both Cave Johnson and Roger Gruezo, five star drivers, have done nothing to address the situation and allowed Vercetti to continue.

BTYLmyY.png


Who are the MonoLyft Juniors?
They are a division within MonoLyft Adjacent that answers directly to Barry Gunderson, the current leader in the absence of Ethan Oxford.

Higher star drivers have refused to recognize the legitimacy of the organization despite its frequent appearances in the city. The members were eventually forced to rename themselves to Serial RPists. They consider themselves MonoLyft at heart and are now fighting to be recognized.

What is the current state of the war?
Shortly after announcing its initiative, Anti-MonoLyft was met with force far sooner than anticipated.

In a quiet log cabin sitting in Pine County, MonoLyft Incorporated and 8.2k raided and killed innocent farmers. Anti-MonoLyft suffered a setback in food reserves and weapons, but a large majority of the coke was saved from the quick thinking of our drivers who hid it. Anti-MonoLyft followed up with a skirmish in Pine County Town and claimed victory after defeating MonoLyft Incorporated and allies.

Anti-MonoLyft had its partners arranged and listed in the event that MonoLyft Incorporated escalated it. Once again, the high star drivers proved their hostility and unwillingness to make change by responding with bullets rather than words. Because of this, Anti-MonoLyft declares ALL OUT WAR and welcomes all of its partners to join in.
