First off, if you were present during my absolute trash fest on IRC last night, you have my sympathies. If you were on Vent with me, ever more so. This week, we have a lot of new projects hitting the fan. First off, analysis of the Battle-Team’s strengths is currently taking place. We’ll be assessing both to see where we could put some active people, maybe move some people around. I won’t bore too much with the politics of it all, but some very nifty things on the horizon.

Real Life: Fiancee and I will be heading to Philly for Thanksgiving, Iowa for Christmas. With the holidays nearing, I was just wondering what other people’s plans were, or what traditions you celebrate. I’m so far behind in buying 360 games. I need, FableII, Saints Row II, Fallout3, TFU, MercenariesII, and basically everything in between. Lord of the Rings Online has been holding me down for now. Mines of Moria comes out tomorrow. BOO-YA.

Qel-Droma News

I will start leaving most of the promotion news to my second in command, Legorii. I’m going to try a new system of reporting, where we don’t overlap as much.

Right now, an extremely important trivia is going on right now via email. If you didn’t get it, please, PLEASE let me know asap so I can send you a copy and get you a shiny. There are 20 questions, and the top 3 get 3rd level Crescents.

Closing Thoughts

To my younglings out there. Your promotions are weighed by you, and you alone. Take a look at this new trivia, it will count HEAVILY towards your next promotion, or even merit award. There is a load of competitions running at every single level. I know some of you think they’re ghey, but to get to the higher ranks of DB life, you have to put in your time. Besides, 5 minutes out of your day can’t hurt, while having some fun doing it. As always, I recommend getting on IRC and getting in #Arcona to talk with your clan mates. Don’t forget to check out Vent as well. And now, I bring you ASCII.
