Greetings Gladius for another, yes another, fabulous rendition of the Gladius Quaestor report, brought to you by the wonderful people of the Jedi Treadmill! Why just settle for another boring, run-of-the-mill workout on a treadmill. With the Jedi Treadmill, you get practice droids and a lightsaber to hone your skills with, all while you shed away those excess twinkies! Jedi Treadmills, the only workout proven to be Force-Certified.
Got any ideas for sponsors? Yes, you can all help me come up with these too, if youd like. Just email me some ideas if you feel the urge. Anyways, onto the report! Yes, you can all feel free to say Shut up Sithie! at any time. ; )

Phyle Reports:
--Mystics of the Black Arts:
Hey Mystics! Wow what a week! Medals given out, activity coming up a bit, interest in doing what we do
best...being insane. I have given out the format for submitting your personal mental record. If you need
that sent again I'll be happy to do so. Justinian did not reply to my personal AWOL check. You get a
night in the Closet of the Damned for that. We have a message board where everyone can post and be 'lil
Mystics. I've got the link for it updated on the DB page. Get posting everyone! If you guys would like,
maybe we could start a run-on that could be worth some medals or even promotions. Think on that for a
while, give me ideas for a possible run-on, and have a wonderful week writing for the next monthly topic.

--Wizards of the Crypt:
Greetings, Wizards. Kodiak here with another weekly report.
Aliera Hydan. I didn't like doing it, but I have to be impartial. If she does make contact with me, wanting
back in, I will probably let her back in. Good news is our vacancy was filled soon after that. Guys,
welcome Praiv back to the Wizards.
phyle. I ask because I would like to keep you all active, and if your active, then you enjoy some comps to
do. Do, get back to me ASAP about stuff you would like to do.
Well, that's it for now.

If you have been visiting the boards, you know we have a Clan fun debate coming up, sponsored by myself, debating whether Gladius is truly STILL the insane House of Tarentum. Our Sith Brother of Tridens, Murkow Defender, would like to claim the title of lunacy for himself and Tridens. This comp is purely for fun guys, and I hope youll all participate and enjoy.
It is open to the entire Clan, and you will have the opportunity to debate alongside or against our fellow Clansmen of Cestus and Tridens. For more information on this debate, look into the Clan section of the Message Boards. More info is found there. Also, make use of our own boards! Go to the Gladius section and post. Post new ideas for comps, ideas for run-ons, or start a run-on! If youve got a nickname youd like for use on the Message Boards, once you register, I can help get you in touch with Proton, who will be only too happy to help you out, as he has done with a number of us already.

Im sure hed love to put your work up as well. And with as many talented writers as there are within Gladius (yes, I do mean each and every one of us), we should want to exhibit our work.
On the system of merit points, if everyone still agreeable on this system? If someone, anyone, everyone, etc., feels it shouldnt be used, or absolutely loves it, or whatever, and you desire to say so, go ahead and email me. I always am glad to hear from all of you. I may be changing it a bit, since Oracle/Chancellor Shadonyx is planning on changing the Brotherhood medals. Id like to hear some feedback on anything, everything. I just feel in a mood to ask people to talk more. I know. Shut up Sithie. : )
Reminders:
--Merit Points:
Remember Gladius, medals and promotions can be earned faster, by mere participation. Merit points are given as you participate, and more activity brings more points, which yields medals and promotions. Awards and promotions according to point requirements as follows:
-Dark Cross -- 50 points
-War Cross -- 150 points
-Steel Cross -- 300 points
-Grand Cross -- 450 points (because Activity is the heart of the Brotherhood philosophy)
up to GRD -- 150 points
JH to DJK -- 300 points
above DJK -- 450 points
I have not yet assigned a minimum/maximum point limit yet, but points will be awarded for quality, length, and extra points may be awarded for special considerations. Points can be earned for stories, poems, run-on participation, pic submissions for fun comps, anything. Points can also be awarded for those who participate in the run-ons, discussions, etc., currently on the Clan Message Boards. Extra points awarded for anyone who starts and gets run-ons going.
--Dark Voice Submissions:
When you submit to the Dark Voice, you can earn merit points for those submissions as well. Make sure you CC those submissions to your AED/QUA so that we know to award you for your activity above and beyond what you may receive for submitting.
