(<small>Sorry to Fremoc and Shikyo for pushing down their reports! Be sure to read them guys!</small>)

There will be no introductory fiction for this particular report. I will simply redirect you to the Arcona Family Feud Storyline Arc. If you haven't read it already, I'd suggest taking a few minutes to peruse over it. It is rather pertinent to the current competitions and fictional basis of the Clan.

Report

So, we're back to report posting. I do apologise as to the lateness of this report. It is seriously overdue. For that, I can only extend my sincerest of apologies. I was swamped at University in the closing weeks leading up to Christmas, and over January myself and Wally were very busy constructing, writing and developing the Arcona Family Feud event. Suffice it to say we will be getting right back on schedule as of now and we have some big news for you.

Firstly, I'd like to say that there is an ACC championship ladder running at present. I'd urge you all to sign up and participate. Even if you don’t get through, its some good practice. Wouldn't it be great to have an Arconan champion? Signups are being taken at present. Refer back to Dash’s post lower down in the news postings for more information.

Secondly, The Old Republic is on the rise! Apparently the Dark Brotherhood guild is starting to dominate the server. Now is your time to get involved in the community. I've had a few reports of individuals moving into different channels and playing in their own groups. I'd strongly advise against this. It is the time to show that you guys can work outside of Arcona and get involved with the community at large. Join the big groups. Play with other Brotherhood members. Get involved in Ventrilo. This is a good opportunity for the Brotherhood to make its mark on the server. It would be nice to see some Arconans joining in on that process.

Now, with the rounding-off of the Arcona Family Feud event, and with the collation of data that is currently going on, I can only say I'm astonished. You have all done a fantastic job. The activity rates, the quality of submissions and the enthusiasm you have all shown in this event has been inspiring. I feel like a proud father, so well done to you all. Please, keep it up.

We have a couple of new items being drawn up as we speak, so keep your eyes on this space for further developments.

Celahir has had to step down from his position as Quaestor of House Galeres. I would like you to all join me in saying thank you to him for his work since we were reclanned. Taking his place will be the very able Sanguinius Entar. He is a good man, but be nice, he can be delicate. He is now the main contact point for all members of house Galeres. A big warm welcome to him. Similarly, Xathia has had to step down from her position as Rollmaster of Galeres. Again, join me in thanking her for her work.

Now, with the departure of these two members of the Summit, there are two positions available. Galeres Aedile and Galeres Rollmaster will be opened Dark Brotherhood Wide:
