HLK News #14 - February 14th, 2004

SITH WAR SPECIAL

I think it'll be important for all CNS members, not just HLK members, to read the details in this report, especially concerning the Sith War.

1. SITH WAR
   

HLK only accounts for a small portion of the Clan members, and if we can get enough of our non-Sith members to participate in this thing, the Clan will collect a lot of participation points. Even if the members of HLK weren't talented (and we are talented in areas), we would gather up enough participation points to drown out any advantage some talented clan out there might have.

In addition, while this is really designed to be a Sith-oriented Clan competition, people like Lenzar are treating it like it's a house competition. Bringing up Lenzar brings up my motivation for getting this house to do well in the Sith War.

I think a lot of people (and we're talking a lot of people in the DB outside of this clan) would like to see someone destroy Lenzar's house. I think we're the ones to do it. Yeah.

There's a web site with all of the events. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT ANYONE WHO CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE XWA BRACKET MUST EMAIL MALIK ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) AND RAI ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) BEFORE SUNDAY NIGHT. Apparently this bracket is a heavily weighted portion of the Sith War, so it might be important for us to concentrate a bit on that. I know the Clan has two participants, I still have firewall issues, so I can't participate, but if you don't have those issues, and want to get some points for the clan (and perhaps a Nova or two) then participate.

I'd like a few Novas. Never gotten those before.

Anyways, the details are at this site:

1. Beat the AED competition
   

I know I promised Tiger that this would get the #1 position in the reports, but I think the Sith War is more important. However, it seems like a quick enough competition, and I plan on participating, the details are here:

1. Freelancer and Allegiance
   

The Freelancer guild is being run by our own Aedile ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]), so get into contact with him if you have the game and are interested. Actually, I myself am becoming more inclined to buy the game, the Star Wars mod really looks good.

The Allegiance movement is being run by Mav ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]). Mav is obsessed with the game. Yeah.

1. ICTE
   

Don't forget the ICTE as perhaps the simplest way of participating in the DB. Every Saturday afternoon, 4pm EST in #outerrim.

1. Conclusion
   

No medals, no Shadow Academy courses passed, no promotions. In those respects it's been a slow week, but that is completely overshadowed by this Sith War. You will doubtedly be bombarded with emails by myself keeping track of how the house/clan is doing.
