Plagueis Rollmaster Report #7 - Less Taxed

Not So Taxed

First off, sorry for the late report folks. For those who don’t know, my secondary job is as a tax preparer. Hence, the last few days, being the last few days of the US tax season have been shall we say, quite taxing. I know, bad pun, but at least you won’t have to hear it out of me for another 8 months or so. Now that I’m not working 6+ days a week I'm going to be around a lot more.

Now onto the important stuff. We just wrapped our latest event, The Enemy Below and I must say the summit was quite pleased in the participation.With well over half the roster (or just shy of 2/3 when you take out the clan summit) submitting to the event an average of almost 10 entries per eligible entrant, I must say the event was a great success. I know I enjoyed reading all the haikus in week 2, definitely was a great distraction from W2s and 1040s. I was particularly impressed with the work or some of our newer members, notably Obsidian who submitted to 21 events. As I said in my last report, clan feuds like this are an important way for folks to advance and it was great to see that chance taken advantage of to it’s fullest. This definitely gets my

Seal

Now that the big event is over, it's now time to start looking towards some day to day competitions. While theres definately some fun comps going on right now. There's this one from Pollus and another one from Obsidian. However I also wanted to point out that this is a good time to run events. While I'll likely be putting together a couple soon, running events is a great way to earn credits and for our newer member to advance. Please feel free to contact me, Abadeer, Selika, or your House leaders if you have any ideas for events or just want some general feedback.

Recent Happenings

Before I start rattling off notes about reports, one particular one brought me special joy this month. In this month’s Headmaster Report it was announced that members of the Circle got the top two spots in number of SA exams taken in the month of March! I wanted to congratulate both Sereph (#1) and Obsidian (#2) on their titles. Their dedication makes me convinced they’ll both do well in their careers going forward.

  • In the Voice Report , Wally not only reminds us how much he likes swords but also details a new system that will allow you to (appropriately for us) acquire NPCs. Just be careful or Selika might just kill them all!
  • Atra provides some useful ACC tips and some info on how new venues are devised in the Combat Master Report. As a note, we’re definitely going to be looking into getting some Aliso related venues put together as part of our larger lore project.
  • Howie comes out of his cave to deliver another thrilling Master at Arms Report with notes on policies relating to competiions and transfers
  • Oh, yeah, this past weekend there was some big Star Wars convention in Florida or something. There was some trailer for the next movie they showed off there with some bit about breathing and some wierd looking new ships (which I WANT). Wally also took some photos which include some Aabs guy in them. No word of any Vader/Emperor bunny ears as requested.

Now, a quick word from our former BTL Azmodius who I was really glad to work with and a bit sad to see go but the wish the best in his new role.

Parting Shots

Hey everyone and welcome to my last report as BTL. I know it has been a short term, but I am very excited to be working with Kelly Mendes as her new Aedile of House Ajunta Pall. As I am still new to leadership roles, I feel Kelly will be a great mentor with her many varying positions over the years, a plethora of experience, and energy in all things she does. The former HAP Quaestor, Laren Uscot, will be Taking on the BTL ( or "Evil Yoda" as I like to call it) position henceforth. He is much more than qualified and capable of assisting all our newest members in getting their bearings and getting to know other members.

I will definitely miss working directly with/under Arden. He has been a great superior and a fountain of information when needed. Though we haven't gotten much of a chance to develop a fictional dynamic in our short time together, I still hope to accomplish this someday as our complete opposites will make for some very interesting back and forth. Lastly I would like to highlight the accomplishments of some of our members within the Circle.

=========

Even though Azmodius is moving on to bigger and more Aediley things, I know the Circle will be in good hands. Laren Uscot will be taking his place and he's definately more than up to the task. As a recent ACC battle showed, Laren is the Gimli to my Legolas so I definately think we're going to work well together even if he can't hit anything at more than 200 meters.

Closing Thoughts and Moment of Zen

I mentioned the Last Jedi trailer above and I will say I really am looking forward to it. To me, the second part of a trilogy is always the most interesting in it’s storytelling and the little bit we saw definitely seems to be headed somewhere interesting. However, it was another trailer that came down during Celebration that gave me a bigger nerdgasam. Even though I didn’t end up buying Battlefront after being an Alpha Tester, the Battlefront 2 trailer (which will serve as our Moment of Zen) definitely got my attention. 50 points to anyone besides Slags who can guess why.

Eh, boss. I'm excited to work with you all! Oh, and loving the report goodness.

Space Pew Pew is why!

You're on the right track, but it's something a bit more specific

Congrats Taranae on your promotion. You have passed your master. Proud of you.

Grats to the other promos and dhinys

Eek report!
