Quaestor Report

2003/01/15, 11:00 PM, Quaestor - House Gladius

Well it's been kinda a bad week for me. I hope that it's not been bad for anyone else. On to the news.

Promotions/Medals

Rage Akaido was recently promoted to Dark Jedi Knight for her completion of the Jedi Trials. Well done!

There were a few medals handed out in the phyle for a small competition. Details are in the phyle report.

I wish I could say I gave a medal for a story that was sent in for our competition, but alias there were none.

Activity

It's been a very slow week. I would like to see more communication but I know I can not force it upon you. The month is half way over so everyone needs to start thinking about sending in your activity report for the month. Those are due before Jan. 29th so I can include them in the last report of the month. Please do not forget!

Also do not forget to check in with Kodiak or you'll find yourself floating outside of our base >:)

Competitions

Just the KMT right now. Everyone is really waiting for the Great Jedi War to start.

Krath Monthly Topics are as follows:

Poem:

"Hymn to Pain"

Style: Limerick

Min: 1 page

Max: 3 pages

Font: Arial, size 12

Describe a painful experience your DB character has gone through. You can adapt a real life situation if you wish, or adapt a role-playing situation or the like.

Fiction:

"Invasion"

Style: Short Story

Min: 2 pages

Max: 10 pages

Font: Arial, size 12

You feel a strange twang in the back of your head. Something is not right at your Clan's HQ. You leave your studies and investigate, only to find a horror beyond horrors stalking your fellow clanmates! You track it, trying to keep out of sight, but you fail. The horror has found you!

DB / Clan News

Really nothing to report here. It has been a very quiet week. There are a lot of stuff going on with the SA as Mage has dominated the news page :P Go read what he has to say.

Seeing as how no one has had any issues, I'm guessing I'm doing a decent job and making everyone happy. If you think otherwise feel free to tell me.

I am rather disappointed about the lack of entries I got for the small competition I made to help everyone prepare for the GJW. I'm hoping this is not the trend I'm going to see when they finally annouce it open for all.

And speaking of the GJW, looks like we might be waiting another 3-4 weeks for it. There were some set backs but that is to be expected. Check the DB website regularly for any updates.

It seems our Desann decided to make an email group. If you wish to be a part of it you can. I personally do not wish for it but maybe you people can change my mind.

Phyle Report

Greetings brothers and sisters

First of ....I am DJK!!!! uhm okay :P uhm yeah ... drinks are on me :P Well then lets come to the report. This week was as silent as usual. Even though I got really TONS of mottos for the motto comp not that much happens. I guess most of you have exams coming as I have and have to study that's of course okay.

Activity

As mentioned above quite leveled. No changes. But I hope that will change when GJW are coming.

Competitions

Mystic Motto Comp finished

I really got many many mannnny mottos for this comp. It wasnt easy to choose the three winning mottos. For those who havent won anything I would like to mention again that the activity and the effort is important not the medal :) Dont be sad just try again :)

Here are the results:

1st place: Dem: Cave Adsum - Beware we are here

2nd place: Aari: Of the arcane most dread

3rd place: Dem: Let darkness reign

Medals were already awarded, sorry that I didnt annonce them earlier. Congratz to the winners :)

House Competition

I heard that no single story was written for this competition. I have to say I am a bit disappointed, I know I didnt participate either, but still it is alarming that no one else seemed to have interest in a comp for the whole house. I am sure our House summit is very disappointed and I want to appologize for my BT's and my own lack of activity.

Monthly topic, KCC and other DB wide comps

The KHP already said that many many entries came in for the KMT, but dont be afraid to send something in as well.

We have a Limmerick topic about Pain and the Story topic is about Invasion :)

KCC matches have slowed down a bit. But look at Jason he won against me :P so go and challenge him ;P or me. Dem, Siterath and Jade have character sheets as well.

If you want to challenge me please notice that I am in the preexam phase so I might be responding only slow. I have a battle running as well, against Timeros. It is like a debt. If I win he will join tarentum if I lose he still has a choice :PWish me luck.

GJW are coming soon so stay tuned.

Promotions - Medals & Courses

No promos nor tests but 3 medals this week.

The medals come from the Motto comp again COngratz to the two winner:

Dem: 1x Cres with Emerald Star

1x Cres with Quartz Star

Aari: Cres with Topaz Star

General News

Dark Voice

The editors of the DV mentioned that they only got 5 submissions for the DV so far. I urge you to make submissions. You did so many great pieces of work, why not sending them in and getting a Dark Scroll for each? :P

IWATS-course submission rules

Since there were so many submissions the HM made a set of rules for IWATS courses, read them and follow them otherwise you dont get the IWATS course added to your profile:

1) Submissions must include your DB PIN and proof. Proof may be in the form of another official online record, or forwards of the mails from the Professors.

2) If you choose to use the forwaring system, you must CC: the Professors of the Courses. Any IWATS PROF who turns around and says, "Hey! I didn't pass that person!" will put a slight damper on your record.

3) It's preferable that you include the number of courses, or even a list of the courses, that you have passed to date. This way, I can go through and do the people who only have a course or two to enter when I'm on the run. ;)

AWOL check
