Episode 2: Send in the Clones

I would have done some mind-numbing fiction here, if it weren't for:

a.) the GJW

b.) the annoyance of some of the less... shall we say 'creative' members of the clan

and c.) because I'm entirely too busy to.

So, I will skip the fiction this week, and lead rite into:

Night Hawks Tetrarch Report 3

(-News-)

PHYLE ACTIVITY: Great Jedi War is going to be entering the second phase next week. Participation is good. Copy me on your submissions.

Also, there are three comps for Night Hawk Phyle Members only. Emotive Outburst, Song of the Night Hawk, and the Tetrarch Trivia. Participate and win! No puchase necessary.

I'm also running a Roll Call. That means everyone has to check in with me. Send me an email, copy me on a competition submission, complete a shadow academy course, win a medal, anything that finds it's way to my email with your name on it works fine. Show me you are alive and kicking by June 11th (week from tomorrow). No one is on LoA as far as I know, so this should be no issue. I really don't wanna AWOL anyone, especially during a GJW. Check the roster to see if you are going on the endangered species list.

HOUSE ACTIVITY: Great Jedi War first phase ending the 11th, second phase starting soon.

GJW run on is at http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/message_board/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2154 We need only 8 more posts by the 11th! W00t! second place so far...

HMR-HAD run-on and 'Library' Run-on kinda stalled out, but still running on.

StarLion is still working at the Mark Ragnos website. Must be feline dystemper...or something.

CLAN ACTIVITY: Great Jedi War Entering the Second phase...details at eleven.

My Breathe Life comp still running. No submissions, thanks to the GJW. Know what that means? Easier for those of you who do submit to win a nicer shiny. To remind you, it's a Character development fiction, 3 pages TNR.

Great Jedi War needs everyone to go and fight, lest our clan get mocked like English kuhnigets by the French. Hunh-hua!

BROTHERHOOD ACTIVITY: Highest priority is the Great Jedi War. It's on. Go participate... 'nuff said.

New KMTs have been issued. Go try one on for size if you're all caught up with your GJW stuff. With the war going on, less people will participate in the KMT's, so it may be easier for us to win these. They're due at the end of the month, so there's plenty of time for you to take your time and do some quality work.

ICTE on Saturday afternoons, people. They were cancelled last week and replaced by Celestial Fury... I don't recall exactly what that is.. But I'll check on it and let you know.

(-Victories-)

PROMOTIONS AWARDED: Erlandil Valenthort was promoted to Guardian. Excellent. Now to become a Hunter...

DECORATIONS AWARDED: StarLion was awarded a Dark Cross for his work on the HMR Website. I'd have been the one who awarded it, but Manji beat me to the punch. glowers Congratulations on a job well done, StarLion.

Erlandil Valenthort was awarded a Crescent with Emerald Star for nailing the Tetrarch Trivia.  Rock on.  

Jonuss Rai Sadow was awarded a crescent with Ruby Star due to his massive pwnage on the May KMT.  Way to pwn.  

SHADOW ACADEMY COURSES: StarLion scored well on the HTML and PHP:I exams. Congratulations, StarLion.

ANTEI COMBAT CENTRE: Erlandil is fighting his qualification match. Good luck Erl.

Muz Ashen won a skirmish with Nekura Manji Keibatsu.  Yes, this is a shameless plug.  I think it was a good and close fight.   

(-Future-)

COMING MISSION ASSIGNMENTS: Everyone, and I mean everyone needs to get out there and participate in the Great Jedi War. With a week and a day left before the end of this phase, last minute submissions may strongly influence our clan's standings.

The Poetry comp (Emotive Outburst), a Fiction comp (Song of the Night Hawk), and the Trivia comp (Tetrarch Trivia) are still running.

SYNAPSIS: The GJW is rocking! Get out there and take no prisoners. Five Krath themed assignments, JO, XvT, all sorts of stuff. We're making somewhat of a showing, but in order to place we need far more people to submit. I think we'd all like to see our Clan's name in the top three spots, besides the fact that we win novas for that kind of thing.

(-RECURRING CRAP-)

Alright guys. Last week's song was 'Gunman' by Funker Vogt, and the Trivia answer was Ben Cooke, who will play Kit Fisto in Episode III. Erlandil nabbed the medal. Let's see what you can do. That's right, it's time for Tetrarch Trivia (patent still pending)

SONG QUOTE:

Come from the land of the ice and snow

where the midnight sun makes the hot springs blow

hammer of the gods

drive our ships to new land

to fight the horde

singing and crying;

"Valhalla, we are coming..."

TRIVIA: The pirate named Krayn was killed by a Jedi's first self-made lightsabre. Who was the Jedi?

Remember, solutions are to be sent to my email, not the newsgroup. There are three medals that can be awarded to this. Last week only one actually did. So get me the answers, even if it is later in the week... When the Rebirth comes, every medal you have will increase the credits you earn as allowance, so get your answers in, it may just help you get closer to your dream fighter. Besides, Quartz crescents are the rarest of them all!

NIGHT HAWKS ROSTER: (with GJW submissions!)

StarLion - 2 submissions (including run-on work)
