-> ### Recent News <-

GJW seals and medals have, finally, been handed out to I believe everyone. A final congratulations to all who participated.

The Mirror Mirror runon has ended. If you haven't already, thank Impie and Ludy for the fun. I enjoyed it, and hopefully you did too.

In the most recent GM report, Muz outlined several new policies that everyone should take a look at if you haven't already. Not the least of which would be the policy for creation of Independent Houses. For the newer members, it basically allows a group of members who aren't satisfied with the current Clan choices to form their own Independent Hose. A similar policy had been in place a while ago, but had not been in effect lately. For more info, the policy is linked in Muz' report. There are also a few new robe options that are open to everyone. I personally like the Scoundrel model, but that's just me. I have got to say I'm looking forward to some of the things that figure to come out in the near future.

HEK QUA has taken all applications. Alaris and Arion will be discussing the applicants within the next couple days. I'm thinking we'll get a decision by this time next week. I personally know of several qualified people who applied, and am confident that whoever is chosen will do a great job. (or a good of a job as you can do with the inarguably less awesome house :P). Look for HEK AED decision to be announced soon after, if not concurrently with the QUA choice.

Narrowing our scope even further, we have two new Battle Team leaders to announce today. Octavia, of Exar's Shadow (is it really my business to be announcing HEK things? probably not, but who's stopping me? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...ehem), and Sanguinius for Keto's Vengeance. Yes, I said it. Our battle team finally has a BTL. And look how I wedged it here right in the middle of my report so you wouldn't even notice it if you didn't read carefully. But yeah, Sang has proven himself through the GJW and otherwise to be capable and generally the best person in my mind to run the battle team. I know he's got plans fictionally with where to take the team, so get in contact with him if such things interest you.

Oh yeah. Also there's the House Feud coming up. It's still being written at the moment. Hopefully we'll get on the ball and finish that soon so you guys can go crazy...er... crazier than you all already are. :P

ACC:

Our new Combat Master, Erinyes, has been on the main news page several times lately. We've got a new Clan Trainer for the ACC, Impetus, as I'm sure you're all aware.

I've referenced Timeros before, and I rather like the guy, despite his rocky relationship with some members of CP. Anyway, his latest report includes some tips for ACC writing and they're pretty thought-provoling, if such things float your boat. I definitely know in the next few ACC battles I have I'll be thinking about the things he mentioned. Anywhere, <A HREF"=http://darkjedibrotherhood.com/dbjedi/viewreport.asp?ID=12690">here it is.

Medals:

A lot. Like... a seriously huge amount. Really. Aside from all the GJW Seals, there were a plethora of merit awards.

Promotions:

Sang and Cassandra = DJK

Oh, I remember back when I got my real saber... good times.

/reminiscing

Anyway, Congrats to both of you in this significant event in your DB careers.
