| In September we changed a lot concerning the workings of the council, and the item quests of D2. First, the council decided that they wanted to be approached as one from now on. Meaning important messages on the forum will be made as one. Also in contacting the council we prefer to have it to the general council account, e-mail rather then the individual councilor. This will have the effect that questions and remarks will be addressed quicker as four pair of eyes see more then one. Also, due to the hacking situation and more important a general discontent of the predominance of the item quest in Diablo 2 we lowered the item quest points more and set a limit on the amount of points a member may collect via questing. To complement this we have included the possibility of receiving reputation points due to servitude to the clan like creating banners and organizing tournaments.
DIABLO: About the Diablo 2 division there has been al lot of changes and some battles. The battle against the boredom of an old game not being enhanced enough for fun play. The battle against all kinds of hacks and the battle against Player Killers. All this makes it difficult to get a division full with active members motivated enough to game and quest for reputation points. People rather chat than game and get annoyed by the above things, or rather game and not quest in a proper legit way. Also, because of those hacks, the promotion/reputation points system has been down for a while. This meant, no questing and not getting further to the limit for promotions. A stand still. In the Division itself there are many changes. Courts have been moved to other games, people became inactive or Crusaders, others got promoted. We get new members, we lose other members by inactiveness. It's quiet now and we have to find out how to rebuild the division to its former glory again. That will take time and a lot of team work between the leaders, the Nobles and the High Council. DAOC: Duke Valandir realized a couple of months ago that our guild was too small, thus he got the recruiting rights and started to ask people if they were interested in joining our guild. This worked out very well, and in a few days he had recruited over 10 new members. Too bad already a few of them have left, but we had already expected this since people find it not strange to just leave a guild without mentioning in this game. Looking at the Camelot Herald we now have 18 ACTIVE members, so that excludes the number of inactive members (about 5), and 44 active characters. Some weeks ago we have decided to ally with the guild Fellowship, after joining a alliance meeting of the Dies Irae alliance we had come to the conclusion it wasn't the right alliance for us since they only wanted the large guilds in their alliance, most of them objected in letting smaller guilds in. So we didn't feel very welcome and we knew we were not in need of them either, so we went to search other guilds to ally with. Masjena, the leader of Fellowship asked us to join. And so we are now in alliance with Fellowship. We have already had a few Battleground raids the last 2 weeks lead by people from the alliance, the first one was lead by our very own Councilor Farseer, and they were both successful. UO: In September the sew Scenario started and it is really good. We got new lovable ridable pets, some cool new stuff and a new dungeon. This means that OSI (UO designer staff) has brought the idea’s we had in to reality. Thanks for listening to us !! The member section for UO is finished and uploaded. Ranks, if changed, will be updated within a week time. New scenario quests are now available as well. The seed quest that you get in the Britain library. (call me for the guidance since I have all spots marked and the secret one as well) The Ambitious Solen Matriarch quests. Kill 5 Solen queens and get a bag of sending. The Solen queens carry sometimes crystal balls with them that is a ball of summoning pets !! After this quest you get the quest to give her some zoogi fungi and she will turn it into powder of translocation. We use the powder to charge the bracelets of binding. These bracelets will be of great use during guild hunts. All members during hunt will bind the bracelet to the bracelet of the one that is leading the hunt. If you got separated and/or are lost use the bracelet to recall to the leader of the hunt. Last but not lease, Holywolf finished working on the UO banner and it looks great. We have uploaded it to the main page so now each division can be found there. WARCRAFT 3: There were some major problems with the Warcraft III site, because of computer problems. The computer problems were solved and the site will be ready soon. The first WarCraft III tourny will finally be held in October and we will also plan some kind of ladder. It's some kind of large tournament. You'll be able to sign up with a team with 2 persons and matches will be organized. You'll also be able to challenge the no.1 in the ladder and you will get a reward when you win. We're organizing all kinds of things like these and hope to make it a better success the diablo2 ladder did. |
