Greeting's Oriens Obscurum,

This report will be a report expressing more of what I'm really about. After all I'm sick of ranting and I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing it. Lately we have had some very active new comers whom I am very pleased with. People are taking part in HOO and I must say that this is what I've been waiting for. I want people to take an interest in us and I hope that we can all, together make this House the best in the DB. I want Oriens Obscurum to dominate in competitions and I want us to be the talk of the DB. For too long have I sat back and watched Arcona falter. For too long have I seen the House and members slowly die. I want us to set the future of the DB. I want us to be the new talk in town so to speak. So lets get out there and show the other clans what we are all about. The Independence games are currently on and I'm hoping to see more people register and taking part in the events. I cant tell you enough that this is one of the best ways to prove yourself to me and the clan. Many promos and medals will come from your hard work and determination. While I am pleased to see people taking an interest in the Shadow Academy I want you to know that, that isnt what we are all about. The competitions are the best way to show your activity so get out there and participate in the Independence games. (link below). Register do the events and lets stomp the opposition.

The rebuilding of HOO is coming along slowly but surely. In order for me to initially start rebuilding I'm gonna need to get our battleteams, House website, and members prepared for the thing's to come. Right now the members are becoming more active and I appreciate it. In order to get the battleteams in order I'm going to need to know a few key thing's from you all. I need to know what you are interested in. I need to know if your into writing, gaming or both. So send me a SEPERATE email letting me know. Dont just reply to this mail. email me completely seperate cause if you all reply, everyone in the House will get it. I havent really been working on the House website like I want too because to tell you the truth I have no real knowledge of creating or working on a website. All I have been able to do thus far is compile the history of HOO. So if any of you have any website building experience email me.

Also I need to know if anyone is interested in the Master/Student program. Information on the program can be viewed here - http://www.arcona.net/index.php?page=tutelage

I would also like to see more people getting IRC. It is what we use to communicate with each other. You can always find an Arconan willing to have a convo. If you end up getting it you can find us at #arcona.

www.mIRC.com

We also have message boards that can be used to do thing's such as Run Ons and general discussion amongst the members of the DB.
