Well, I was hoping to write this report on the new DB website that was promised but since that may take a few more days I felt that I should probably get my report out now.

I would like to start and welcome everyone who has come back to the House or is joining us for the first time. Saitou has returned from vacation and we have had several new members join us as well. Hope everyone enjoys it here and if you have any questions feel free to ask me or one of the other summit leaders. For all you new guys I believe Uzbad should send you an email on how to get promoted shortly if he hasn't already, I look forward to your work in our House and clan.

I would congratulate everyone who has earned awards this last week: especially Mune and Vithril on their Steel crosses and Cornix on his dark cross. We've had a ton of cluster of fires given to our house as well as other medals for placing in various comps so once again congrats to all who've won something. Its good to see that we can still be active in the hot days of summer.

More congrats are due to the new summits of HDS and HC. Its been a long time since any clan in the brotherhood has had three houses, each being single order, so this is a great accomplishment for everyone in the clan who has helped make it a reality. I look forward to great things coming from the new House and I lok forward to working with the new summit.

Finally, the news section of the report. As everyone knows the new Rebirth website has been delayed for a few days but in the mean time I encourage you to check out the post here: http://summerprojects.darkjedibrotherhood.com/summerprojects.html. It includes some nice previews of the new system to help hold you over and it also has some info that's important to read. Go check it out if you already haven't.

Second, with the new mono-order houses again in the clan I think it might be a time for change in the House. I would like to make each phyle specific to a certain activity so the Tet can concentrate on one type of comp and you can have more fun. So if you haven't already please let the summit know if you have any of the Star Wars games (JO, JK, JA, etc.) and if you would like to participate in a phyle geared toward specific activities.

Third, I have some ideas I've been working on and they should be out by my next report.

If you've seen the email Dalthid is looking for ACC halls based off clan specific things, our homeworlds and such. If you are interested let me know and I can give you the generic info about our clan worlds and whatever else you need. If there's enough interest from the house I'll make it a comp but even if not you will still be rewarded for writing something.

I would also like to offer my condolences to Cornix on his loss. Its hard to lose anybody, especially a friend and I want you to know my thoughts are with you during this time. Take as much time off as you need because we'll always be here when you come back.

Okay, sorry for the long report but it seems there's a lot to say. If I forgat something you'll hear from me later, otherwise have a great week.
