Hey there, Cestus! And now for the latest:

Run-On Officially Ends Tomorrow at 11:59 PM

The run-on has been short, but content-wise, it's been pretty good. We've had some strong writers emerge, even if few in number, and some of us are planning to wrap it up even if it takes a little longer after the 12th. I am planning for Oberst to judge the top three posters, and he or Anshar will give out the medals. Our story will end some time after the questions of how this happened, and as of the end of the RO, Eden's got a new governor. So I think we've got some good content.

Once again, here is the link for the RO: http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5808

Other House News

While I did state that "Art of Battle" competitions must be finished by the 10th, I noticed that Frosty and Nami's fight in particular had been extended. Therefore, you all must complete your remaining "Art of Battle" competitions by July 23rd. Otherwise, they will be removed and will not count toward your total scores.

I have some plans for some small, humorous comps to keep us tided over before the main storyline that Anshar has been mentioning comes up. If you guys have any ideas, feel free to give them. Also, on the 14th, Nami's first created competition is going to be run, and it looks good. Here's the link in case you want to look at it.

Removal from Google Groups

As I am writing this e-mail, I have removed any and all members who have left Cestus due to AWOL checks or transfers. With the exception of the clan summit, a few clan higher-ups, and the group's owner, the list should stand at 23, which is the current size of our roster.

Arrivals

Everyone please welcome Neo {Dark} and Zaldra to House Cestus! We are always happy to have new members, and I hope they stick around!
