HLK News #16

Once again, I ask that all members of this clan (that means you HMR and HPG) read this report.

1. Sith War
   

It seems that current clan standings in the Sith war are released AFTER I write this report. That makes sense on Goatham's part, considering which day of the week the Sith War started. However, I am stubborn and will continue to write these reports every Saturday. The nice thing is, that you get extra emails from me, to remind you guys how we're doing and how we could be doing better. Remember, this Sith War has a certain duality to it. Not only is it a competition between someone like me and Lenzar, and our houses, it's a competition between clans. If we won this thing, HLK didn't win the Sith War, CNS won it. If we won this thing. Ha Ha.

On Sunday, the Sith High Warrior posted the current point totals for the seven clans. Those point totals showed CNS in 3rd place, not as far from 1st or 2nd as I thought, but with clan Taldyran very close to us in 4th place. Then I heard news that Clan Scholae Palatinae (well, Arania) decided to bombard the Sith War with well over a dozen (maybe two) ACC battles. Tarentum's strength seemed to be Lenzar playing a lot of XWA matches.

What surprised me (sort of pleasantly, because I'd rather see Arcona win than Tarentum) was Arcona's score. They're only 2 points behind Tarentum, probably because of their participation playing the game Allegiance. It's not the most point-efficient way to make points (since one game takes on average an hour and a half), but I think it's fun, and it's a free download.

I suppose CNS has been participating a little bit everywhere. I know I've been playing as many Allegiance games as I can, and some other CNS members are too. And I know Tiger's kicking ass in Xwing Alliance. Tiger, Malik, and myself beat our first round XWA Bracket matches, I'm gonna guess that Karimicus didn't. I also get to move on to Round 3 automatically.

The only other thing to mention, is that point totals seem to be slightly changing a bit. So, I'm not exactly sure how this affects the clan, I guess we'll have to see the updated point totals in a day or two.

I know, I didn't mention Tiger's Beat the AED competition, I need to talk to him sometime about that. The Sith War goes on, and you'll hear more about that when we get the results.
