Sorry for the lateness of this, had too much work with the Independence Games this weekend and then a major ear infection stopped me from thinking coherently enough to write mails longer than 5 lines ;-)

Anyway... where are we ?

I've heard from rather few of you in the last weeks. Looking over the Aleema and CSK lists, I see (in no particular order)

Koidyis Soilatus

Dalthid

Sayo Venchetti

Selket KuroHyo Entar

Arania

Kaiann

Shadow

Xehr

Dar en Kendrath

Now that's for the last two weeks. 9 out of 16, and quite a few with only one short lifesign. Looking at the other seven:

Deus Excelsior

Enahropes Teriad Entar

Ziltopia

Draco Aloran Caanis

Dr Pepper

Xrath Darksythe

Elbwyn

Hmm... okay. The only one I heard anything from recently outside the lists is Enah, the whole rest seems to be lost in the nowhereness that is right next to the country of Awolia...

But back to actual business and I think I already mentioned the big agenda item:

INDEPENDENCE GAMES.

Frankly, if you can't find an event that you want to do in this one, you will have a hard time ever finding one. This is the most in variety the Brotherhood has ever seen and thanks to who submitted events and who didn't, it's very Krath-biased too! So sharpen those quills and do at least one of the events!

A few ones that you can do rather quickly:

#2 Brain Teasers

#14 Caption Contest

#29 Muddled Jedi

Neither of these will strain your keyboard too much...

For the experts among you who like the high difficulties, I recommend:

#4 Juggling Words

#6 Letter Tax

#17 Poems from Words

And finally, for those who prefer straightforward writing about good topics:

#1 The Dirty Secret

#7 Ballad of the Dark Warrior

#18 Death Becomes You

Just nine picks out of the 29 events - not to say that the other 20 worse because they aren't!

Now surf over to http://independence.starfleetacademy.net/ and pick your favorite thing to do! Remember: Promos go only to those who are actually active!

Speaking of active: Some members recently were active and thus received medals (from Dalthid's "Dear Diary" competition):

ACO Koidyis Soilatus got a Crescent w/ Sapphire Star for first place,

ACO Dar en Kendrath a Crescent w/ Emerald Star for second,

and KP Selket KuroHyo Entar a Topaz Crescent for third.

Good work all three and everyone else who took part!

That's it for the week, stay cool, stay Aleeman and be active!

The "K" guy.
