1) Here it is folks! The eagerly awaited Great Jedi War is finally upon us. Make me proud and slaughter your opponents and make them regret they ever faced you!

Keep in mind that like all the other large scale competitions that happened recently, the rewards for this will be commensurate with the participation of the Clans. The more you fight, the better the goodies!

As a side note, it's quite possible that I show up in some of these competitions just for fun. I might play a game or two of JK2 or something like that. I haven't decided yet and it will depend quite a bit on my availability, but I think it could be interesting. :)

2) There were some concerns this week about Shadow being both in Taldryan and having worked directly on the GJW. I can assure you that I trust him fully and know that he would never abuse this trust.

In any case, he can participate in any event, but he cannot win anything. This has long been a standard rule of mine and it applies here as well. If someone participates in the creation of an event, they can participate in it, but not win it.

The whole DC-Taldryan thing will be solved once this GJW is over anyway.

3) I suggest you take a good long look at the Tau website http://www.knology.net/~reinthaler/

I believe it certainly fits the personality of the squadron! Scary when you think that they main preoccupation should be to keep me alive! :P

4) I'd like to remind everyone to submit to the EH newsletter (and our own for that matter). I will not be happy until I see the DB overwhelming them with our (high quality) submissions! I know DB members have the talent, now let's go and show those slackers in the other subgroups what we're made of. :)

5) Once the GJW is fully underway, I'll start working on the next DB-wide competition. Assuming I get things done the way I want to, it should be very interesting. I don't intend to start it any time before July at the earliest. I want to give the Clans plenty of time to run their own competitions. You can bug me for details about it if you think you're have the endurance for it. I can be very stubborn. :P
