Hello again all,

I am super tired right now, but 'tired' isn't listed under the exceptions of the Tuesday Rule. Therefore, i am going to suck it up and give you this week's report :P

Spectre/Kaerner/Tarentum News

It's been a pretty slow week hasn't it? Well, the new houses are still going strong, and Spectre as well. The two BTs in Kaerner are not yet full so before Scion and Nami auto-place you, you might want to shoot either Teia or me an email as to which house you want. (that was for non BTs who might be reading.)

There is, however, a big spot for Tarentum News! Oberst has stepped down as the Consul of Tarentum, and former PCON, Ronovi has taken his place. Now filling Ronovi's PCON spot is Ji K'awiil, so congratulate both of them in their new positions!

Activity Records (which are pretty thin today...)

Apollo Holds 1st place in the Motto Competition

Carter Passed the Advancement Studies test Passed Training Saber Basics Tied with 1st for the SA competition Second place in graphics

Xergo Mao Passed ACC Basics Promotion to ACO Transfered to the Rogues :( Tied for 1st in SA competition

The Rest

Go Participate in the Competitions!!! Do some gaming!!! Earn some merit awards!!!

Gaming.

I have a question for all of you. As i hate gaming ( :P ), i am going to need your help with running the gaming side of this Battle Team. If you would like to see something gaming wise happen, email me with any comments you may have. I can keep requesting gaming competitions, mixing up the gaming "topics", and try to promote it the best i can. But i would like to hear your input on the gaming side of things.

Xergo

A sad fact, Xergo has transfered to the rogues... It pains me to see such an active member leave, and i do hope he will come back another day. Until then, have a good time Xergo!

• 6 competitions to take part in!
