House Ventress

Biggest news is that we have a new recruit who just joined our lovely little corner of the Brotherhood. Please give a huge welcome to Benin Baarkon!!! I want to also congratulate him on all the success he has already made in our house. He’s only been in the club for a week and has already been promoted to Journeyman 1, done 18 SA courses, got 3 degrees, and is just snatching up the trophies. I can tell Benin is going to have a very long and bright future within Plagueis and the Brotherhood as a whole. Congrats again Benin and looking forward to seeing what you do!

Next thing is the house vs house event, Ascending Conflict. Which is going on right now folks. Week 2 competitions are going on, along with the event-long ACC co-op match. Now the competitions for week are super easy: there’s a puzzle, a Haiku poem, a fun ~addicting~ browser game (that you can also play on mobile), create an art piece, crossword, make a rumor, supported gaming, and a word search. Focus of this little event is participation. So anything and everything you guys can do is awesome, and earns you more XP and credits for fun things. So get out there, have fun and do the things. May the best House win!!

I also wanted to give a quick Thank you to everyone who has already put their insightful perspectives into the survey that the summit put together to help us get a better understanding of what you, the member’s of Plagueis, would like to see from us, along with feedback on how we’re doing. The input is greatly appreciated and helpful to the summit. If you still haven’t done the survey, just click either of the links within this little blurb and submit your input. Thanks again!
