Monthly News
Basically I've decided to try and be a bit more active and lead elite to victory in every field possible!
I'll start by saying this
weekly news will more likely be monthly as that's the time period I've planned evaluations to be checked.
It will basically just keep people up to date with what I expect from members and any new features I add to the forum as well as any upcoming events, either planned by me or in the events board.
I'll try to keep everyone up to date with what's going on, feel free to mention any news you have as well that's relevant (such as events I may have missed or if you're hosting anything yoruself. You can add any non-tb related news too if it's important to you!)
Anyway let's get this started.
November monthly update:
_______________________________
Here we go again! Even more events than last time, what joy!
- First of we have [WAPOW]Art Event, something I think we can all take part in! It's basically a contest where we each draw one of the gms doing whatever we like. We can use whatever art style we want and it doesn't matter if you think the drawing looks bad, just enter it for fun and maybe you'll get a nifty prize out of it
Deadline: November 30th

- Next we have the GameMaster's own Opener Challenge #4! For any replay makers in the clan, this is a must-do event. It involves taking a pre-made replay from the event page and editing it from the frame specified to make it look amazing. A lot of creativity can go into this and I feel like it's even good for people who don't make replays very often as it already has a starting point for you to work from. For extra incentive there's a nice 30k prize for 1st place along with some shiai tokens!
Deadline: November 15th

- Up next another event from the GM team. The um... the uh...what's it called again....OH YES! "The uh... Event... Event?" This pretty much speaks for itself! Well maybe not...but anyway this event is basically you doing the GM's job for them! HOW EXCITING! You have to come up with an idea for a tournament pm it the GM running the event (smallbowl.) The winner gets to host the event the following month AND all prizes are covered by the GM team, ain't that nice of them?
Deadline: November 26th

A lot has happened over the last month, with a lot of members joining and changing positions and gaining my trust *_*, but by far the most important is our main guy tacoBeLL officially being off the market! We're all very happy for you taco, sorry to sound like a soppy piece of shit but we are and hope everything goes well .
*wipes away tears of joy*
Anyway for the rest of you lot let's just summarize the main ranking changes over the past month.
Firstly some new ranks were added to the clank ranks page so if you haven't checked it out, go have a look! Everything you want to know about positions in the clan is located in those spoilers!
Mikehoy is our latest member so give them a warm welcome when you see them! They're still in trial period for now as well so keep an eye out to make sure he's not up to something haha.
Clan artists have been established and leader of general art is Azion, leader of replay art is Kirito.
Alphan00b has joined the ranks of WARHEAD and they SHALL lead us to victory in every war ;).
Move has left the clan unfortunately and it is unlikely he'll ever be back in this clan.
Our 3 word thread was the most popular thread of last month, and it's popularity is only getting exponentially higher (even to outsiders!)
That's all the news I can think of for now, this will be updated if necessary!
I was quite pleased with EVERY active member this month and was so glad to see people in game and talking on the forums frequently. By far everyone has put in some effort, particularly Azion, Sniper, Alpha and Tantoehard. Members like rust have kept the clan funny and fresh, and the same can go for kirito and samux after that amusing gif war that went on for a few pages lol.
You've all been putting effort into looking at applications too and I'm SO glad because without you guys we wouldn't be able to function properly.
Taking the evaluations into consideration....
TANTOEHARD!
Over the month I've seen him in game communicating with others and always joining an elite server whenever it's created. They've posted very frequently on the forums (probably the most despite the post count lol) and they've had an amazing attitude ever since they joined the clan.
This was a hard choice as you all put in a lot of work, but I feel like Tantoe just pulled slightly ahead of the rest!.
Tantoe receives his prize of 20k for this month so congratulations to him!
October: Tantoehard - 20k prize
November:

October monthly update:
_______________________________
So there's a couple events with some nice goodies up for grabs this month!
- First off we have the Single Player Cup, an event for all you replay makers who want to show off your stuff! The prizes are amazing but the competition is too! If you think you've got the stuff go for it! And even if you don't, give it a try anyway I will be anyway .

- Next up we have Tori Wipeout! Yet another replay making event, with some decent prizes (nice spending money to waste on betting eh?) It has three different fields of entry though. First off the parkour replay which is supposed to be good looking, secondly the speed replay in which you have to get to the end as fast as possible, and thirdly a funny fail replay where you have to make the best looking fail attempt of the course. I encourage everyone to participate as it's actually a pretty fun course to try out! And even if parkour isn't your thing, go for that fail replay brah!.

As of yesterday a new clan ranks thread was created along with a new clan rank system being put in place. Check it out if you want to learn more!
Other than this, we have two new admins for the clan! If you haven't already guessed it's myself and tacoBell, Sarutobi will remain a leader as well for when he returns from his great journey known as life.
If you have any queries you should pm myself or tacoBell from now on.
We also have a few new members : Kirito, Samux57, simga and a returning member SuBZ3rO3!
Please give them a warm welcome.
Finally we have our first WARHEAD ranked member, congratulations to tantoehard who has gained this position. A member very enthusiastic about warring, he will be in charge of setting up duels, and accepting them from other clans. You can organize a team to participate in duels, assigning certain mods to certain members etc.. but make sure you let people play at least once if they want to ;). Two more WARHEADS will be allocated but no more than that.
There is a new evaluation system, linked to the clan ranks, that I will be carry out by myself for the time being. It's basically just me checking that you're not super inactive or an asshole to other people in the clan (or outside for that matter.)
To stay on the good side of things just be a good person and represent Elite well! I'll send you a warning if I think you're getting off your game, but hopefully we won't have to come to that.
I've decided to give everyone a passing grade for this evaluation as it was pretty short notice and we have a lot of new members that I haven't gotten to know very well so far, so stay tuned for the November evaluations!
I might even have some prizes for my member of the month...
That's all for now guys thanks I'll try to keep this updated.
