Going to start my second report off with this: Some losers have too much free time on their hands. Wondering what that is in reference to? If youve checked out the DB site in the last two days or so you would have noticed a very annoying April Fools Day joke that changed the entire site to reflect a Light Jedi club. Light blue on white background = painful on the eyes. I say, joke because jokes are actually supposed to be funny not just annoying and stupid.

Well, there hasnt been a whole lot going on at the clan level. Kir has recently discovered the joys of working a 40-hour a week job on top of college classes, a social life (sure we believe him) and the DB. Hopefully well be able to start thrusting out details for the upcoming clan competition should be very sexxxcellent.
Bloodfyres XWA/XvT bracket tournament has moved onto the second phase with Demos being the only member from Tal participating. I know flight sims arent really are thing, but hopefully Demos will manage to bring us home some nice TIE Defenders.
Speaking of tournaments, Korras has decided to run a similar version for the FPSers in the DB. Following BFs lead, he will be rewarding individual members and clans with ground assault vehicles along with medals I assume. Not details released as of yet, but expect a regular ladder or bracket style competition. Another chance to shine, Dinaari.
The Battlefront, Allegiance, Jedi Academy server was recently shut down due to lack of funds. Fortunately, Spears already has a new SA JA server up and running at 216.128.69.217:27960 with the password DJB (yes, all capitalized) so you JAers dont need to be freaking out just yet.

Ben has selected his Aedile and sent it off to the MAA. Khans being slow and apparently has to get Jac or Mavs written approval before being able to okay it, so Ill let Ben announce it when it goes through. I dont even know if the guy knows he got the job.
AWOL check was completed and sent to Kir and I for approval. I think Kir just has to send it into the MAA office and Dinaari will get a little less roster heavy.
My competition, The SHAFT concluded on March 30th with a very impressive turn out. Everyone who participated did fairly well, but Duga dominated the competition winning every single medal plus two extra crescents. All from a month of wins, which is gross.
Final Results:
Duga - 245
Kraval - 176
Kir - 28
Chaos - 28
Pyralis - 12
Michael - 10
Jive - 4
Locust - 3
Sharad 3
Nice work guys, especially Duga and Kraval who have an impressive lead over everyone else. Most of the medals have already been rewarded I just need to finish up the last bunch I got.

Haikus - Starting from this week, a topic for a Haiku poem will be given every Monday. The goal is to write a poem following strict metrical pattern of 5, 7 and 5 syllables in three units. Only one such verse will be accepted. The idea is to express the single thought; single moment of consciousness. Setting the poem in a specific season isn't required, but will be a definite bonus.
The first topic is "Anger". The closing date is 3rd April. Please send all entries to Aragorn [Log in to view e-mail addresses] in .doc or .txt.

As I mentioned before, not a whole lot of work done on any clan projects, though I did manage to add my comments to a few other peoples projects. Mainly the proposal for a revamped Rules of Engagement. If any of you are even familiar with the old guideline for all things competition written by Mike Halcyon, you will undoubtedly be aware that it made little sense, did not follow the standards of MP that we use every day, and was basically worthless shit. Anyways Korras mentioned something to me about wanting to re-write it and since I was bored and wanted to do something I sent the Order Leaders and Jac and Mav a re-written preliminary version, which was renamed the Rites of Combat. Never been a fan of non-SW names in a SW club, its just weird.
Aside from that, Kir and I added some feedback to the Obelisk HQ description, so I guess that will be released sometime in the future. Not sure when exactly. And that was basically it for this week.
*--= Proconsuls Corner =-- *
Well, Ive definitely been bored this last week. Rain cancelled pretty much an entire week of work, and Ive had little to do DB-wise to occupy my time so Ive been doing random things all over the place. My favorite is arguing with people real life, IRC, MSN, AIM its all good really. Well, another week another member who has risen above the rest and is deserving of accolades.
Duga, for your disgusting amount of MP wins in the month of March, I salute you with my wang. Congratulations.
Also, as a side note, Ill now be making this a bi-weekly or even monthly thing so as not to get bitched at by the MAA/Kir. Sorry guys, but were not CEK.
