Consul Report

Sorry, no fiction this time. Be on the lookout for fiction next time.

Greetings Members of the Royal Clan of Scholae,

This marks my very first report as Consul of Scholae. Many thanks to Phoenix for guiding this Clan over the last year or so. Next time you see him, slap him in the mouth for me.

Now that we’ve rid ourselves of the evil dictator Phoenix, welcome to the evil dictatorship of Lucien. Most, if not all, of you know me, so I won’t go into some long spiel about who I am and what I represent. You all know what this Clan is about, which is to immerse ourselves in the DB universe through many avenues and to have fun while we do it. This brings me to my next point.

Competitions. These aren’t just for us to spin our wheels. We create and run these competitions so that you all can grab more medals and to assist with your promotion requirements. No good comes from the whole process if people don’t participate. We end up with one or two entries and end up having to lower the level of awards handed out and that doesn’t do anyone any good at all. So, I guess what I am trying to say is this. If you don’t like the competitions that we put forth, tell us what you WOULD like rather than just not do them. We ask for your feedback and input at most junctures, yet we get no responses. This is disconcerting when combined with the lack of competition entries.

So, in an effort to boost competition participation, I will be adding an addendum to the MAA Promotion Guidelines that states this: “Any member seeking promotion will have to submit to no less than two competitions before they will be considered for promotion.” This goes for each rank and the number of comps required may increase as ranks increase. The MAA Guidelines state this as an optional requirement, yet I am making it required.

Now, onto more interesting and upbeat things.

Don’t look now, but there is a House Feud on the horizon. Some of you may have been able to glean small glimpses of what it will entail, but I can assure you that it will be a departure from what we usually do, yet will also serve as a primer for the upcoming Great Jedi War.

Hmmm. GJW. Some of you have not participated in one, so allow me to elaborate on the idea and process of the GJW. The event is held once a year or so, and the winning Clan is declared First Clan of the Brotherhood. Clan Taldryan has won each and every GJW so far and has never relinquished the title of First Clan, causing some of them to be smug. I want to wipe that smugness off their faces. I want them to lose so bad that even Plagueis is ranked above them. Simply put, I want to win, and so should you. This is the premier event in the yearly DB calendar and one that everyone gears up for and participates in.

So, I want everyone to focus on this upcoming House Feud as though it were a GJW. Play as many games as you can, enter as many events as you can. I’m going to put this in here so I know that people have read this report. The top points winner in the upcoming House Feud will be rewarded with something extra. I won’t reveal what it is just yet; just know that it’s pretty sweet.

Projects. Man, do we have a lot going on behind the scenes. Impie, Camord and I are busy working on a big ass project that will blow your minds. I’m so hyped up on this project that sometimes I don’t want to wait to show you what we have so far, but I know that I’ll just get hopes up and be inundated with questions about how it’s coming along. So just suffice it to say that when it’s released, you’ll all drool uncontrollably, so you may want to invest in bibs.

Thran, Phoenix, Slagar and I are working on putting together a GJW primer House Feud Event. It will encompass some of the fictional things that Phoenix and I have alluded to over the past few months. It is slated for release on December 1st, so be on the lookout.

Now, I want to take this time to tell you how things should be operating here in Scholae. While I do in fact have an open door policy, I’d also like Thran to be in the loop on everything. So, if you have a question, concern, or suggestion, run it by both of us. That way the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. Thran will be taking care of the day to day “operations” of the Clan, while I focus on projects and member development.

Conclusion

  • Do competitions or face the wrath of me.

  • Tell us what kind of competitions that you would like to compete in. Specifics please, not just general ideas.

  • If you want to be involved in a Clan wide project, let me know. I currently have needs for:

Coders

Graphics artists

Writers

  • Submit articles for the Royal Gazette. Reiden works real hard to put this publication out for you, so do him and yourselves a favor and submit articles. There are awards and nobility points up for grabs.

  • Keep an eye out for the House Feud.

In darkness,
