Alright folks, here's report number two. It promises to be short and sweet.

First up, I'm impressed with the activity of some, not so much with others, and to be honest I can never remember who the rest are or where they belong. We need to find a way to fix that because I've got an itchy finger that's just waiting to award some folks (provided Ji ever calms down with his own awarding...). I think several competitions will be loosed on the house and there are always Voice competitions running monthly.

There have been some concerns voiced to the summit and I wanted to let everyone know one more time that I am here for you. I'm not here because I like basking in adoration of the masses...well okay, I do like the basking part but how do I know if you love me if you never talk? I am here to assist you in furtherance of your enjoyment of the club as a whole. Between Ji, Krandon, Severon and myself, there is nothing we can't handle. We might have to get together and get back to you on it, but we CAN and WILL fix what ails ya.

Now we'll move on to the rest of the report. I promise this will be just as boring.

Since you followed the clicky, you get the full report. So, here we go.

VOICE: Load the Can(n)ons #6 - This month's opponent is a character everyone should be familiar with (and want to kill)...Jar Jar Binks! I expect to see a lot of submissions for this since I know most of you have discussed ways to kill this character :P

Bi-Weekly Mission #1 - Clue - As the name suggests, this is a very mission-oriented topic. Check out the details to see just want the mission entails. Basically, think of this mission like a Murder Mystery, but with dark jedi. This topic ends on the 14th of the month, and another topic should be up on the 15th

Will you be a Valentine? - The first Valentine-themed topic. This is a poem based around the idea of either convincing a light jedi (group or person) that emotions are superior or cursing them in some manner. For the Light Jedi out there, you can probably reverse roles and try to convince the dark jedi to change their ways

Bows & Arrows - Our second Valentine's theme. You have the power of the ultimate "match maker". Your job is to write a story based around the most unlikely matches you would attempt to make, based on this power (ie. Jar Jar and Watto as a couple :P).

I believe I told you in my last report that I would begin having projects that I need to complete. Here I will give you a list of things that occupy my time when I'm not working.

Member Retention - Ongoing Member Training - Ongoing Wiki Organization - 0% (still getting started) Odan-Urr Fictional Development - 0%

Here is where I'm going to ask YOU for favors. I am looking for about three people to assist with the Fictional Development side of the House.

If you want to jump on this, shoot me an email at [Log in to view e-mail addresses]

In other news, I missed a lot of time to be available to you gents due to inclement weather keeping me from the office. However, I will clearly reiterate my point earlier in the report if you even bothered to read this far which might actually happen. I am here for you. Regardless of whether I can get to the office or not, my inbox is always available. If you need to get in touch with me and I cannot be found, fire off an email and I'll respond to it as soon as I receive it. Give me at least 48 hours to respond before starting to worry. I might be stuck somewhere due to snow or other nastiness that comes with living on a mountain top.

As much as I might complain about you guys sending me stuff, I actually DO enjoy getting these little incidental emails. It shows that I can help you with something and enhance your experience within the Dark Brotherhood and inside of HOU. So, please, feel free to harass me as often as you like. Even if it's just to say hello. I like knowing when you guys are alive.

That's all I have for now. KAP Akhera Nol (Sentinel)/AED/Odan-Urr (Medals and such)
