I guess I'm nicking the very end of the day with this report. I've just had my mind on other things, one which will (hopefully) be of benefit to the DB as a whole.

As far as big news, everyone knows, Jedi Academy is now out. I'm one of the ones who is reviled for having it (Heh), but it's a great game. I think it's a lot of fun, and will hopefully bring new life into the Obelisk Order, the DB as a whole, and hopefully it'll net some fun and talented members for Tarentum, as well. As may be read on the DB site now, I got spontaneous and bought a 6-player server for JA tonight, which should be up in 2-3 days. For people who have JA/will be getting it, I hope to be able to play you all on there.

I tried to be a little non-chalant about it, but yes, people heard, Jac awarded me a Sapphire blade. I came home from work to that nice surprise in my inbox, and I really am grateful for it. It really reflects on you all, since Tarentum is the greatest Clan, and I just have the opportunity to stand up at the front. You all are the ones who deserve the credit, because it's an honor for me to be able to serve you as your Proconsul.

Promotions will be coming around. There are a lot of people on my list to be promoted, but medals will also be coming around. I've seen a lot of great activity, and willingness to serve and give from people, and I love seeing that. I like to be able to reward people as much and as often as I can, so I thank everyone who is doing their part to make me be able to reward you. :) I do think there is always room for improvement, but I think every House, and everyone, is putting forth an admirable effort, as far as I can expect. We have problem spots like every Clan, but it's no one house, or one individual. If anything, Tarentum has always been united, so any problem will be dealt as a Clan problem, and I know it will receive support to be overcome from everyone. We've always been united, and we'll always continue to be united, and support each other in everything.

We've got new mebers, and I know there's more coming in. We need to concentrate as a group, and a cohesive Clan at that, to making sure we keep in contact with all of our members. Let's not let anyone slip away due to simply letting communication slip away. Let's make use of this mailing list. Let's make use of the message boards. Let's continue to make use of IRC. We have all sorts of options at our disposal, so I want us allt o do everything we can to maintain communication, and ensure that Tarentum is the most active Clan there is. For those who think members equal out to domination, let me point out the recent Arcona-CSK Feud. Arcona is measurably larger than CSK, and has great talent within her halls, but CSK is slated for the win. Skill wins competition. Activity ensures the win. Let's do what we all can to ensure our place is not diminished. I know we're the best there is, Tarentum. You all know we have some of the top talent there is. Let's go out there, and make sure everyone knows that the name of Clan tarentum always has been, and always will be among the names most honored, and most respected.

I'll continue to do what I can to help out, but it also takes a showing from everyone. Even if you don't play in things like the ICTE, come out and support those of us who do. Confidence is what scores the win. Even if the medal goes to someone else, knowing that you put your heart into it, and that you were, above all, a sportsman and an active participant, that scores a win for us being the most active Clan there is. In everything that we do, ACC/writing, flying and the JK series, let it be said that we put out 110%, and that we stood for the honor and friendship that lives within Tarentum.

Anyways, I don't want to make this any longer. Let's rock this place, Tarentum.
