Dump was done a day early because if I wait till tomorrow I'd probably forget.



An important message to all members:
  - I would appreciate it if you could all send me a PM with your E-Mail address in it. A lot of stuff is going on and I think that I could get news out faster if I sent you E-Mails rather than posting here and waiting for you to see it. Your E-Mail will not be spammed or shared, and I'll only use it for important announcements every once in a while.

Sorry for the double post.


Wow... from 18 to just 11 members in one month... It looks a bit like I have much more time than I thought...

In December when I first annnounced AoB, a lot of people joined who didn't end up actually having enough time to dedicate to it. Not trying to insult those people, but that's the reason why.

A few updates. Notes are in red. (not posted in the main topic):

[Topics of Interest]
HQ-
   This year, our clan HQ is going to be more of a clan build. I will provide offices as I usually do, but I'm not going to work on the HQ much in terms of making it look nice. I hope that over the coming months our building branch can get it looking excellent, and our eventing branch is going to come up with some new innovations to be installed.
   The basic HQ is now finished. You guys are welcome to start submitting ideas for improvements. If we're all agreed, you can go ahead and do it.

PRINT PACK-
   AoB does have a print pack. It can be found to download at our website listed above. It includes photos from various events in AoB's history, as well as member photos for any members that requested them last year. Any member is welcome to ask me to include something in the pack (we now have several movie posters upon request).
   I have also have an idea for the member photos I have from last year. If you had one taken last year, please get in touch with me so I can get your opinion.
   The print pack has been updated, but a lot of people haven't downloaded it yet. Remember that the print pack is on our site! (http://www.docithe.com/aob)

SECURITY-
   AoB will have a new security system this year. Members will be assigned a security clearance based on their rank. This clearance will allow them to go to certain areas, while disallowing lower ranks to get into restricted areas such as the vault.
   This system has been changed a bit. Basically non-members are locked out of the important parts of the HQ, members have access to everything except the AoB(E) floor.

MANDATORY EVENTS-
   If a member fails to attend a mandatory event without prior notice to the Director, the member will be suspended for 2 weeks. If you can't come to something, tell us in advance and you will be excused.
   This will be enforced as of now, so check your E-Mails and the forum to make sure you don't miss something!

CLASSES-
   Info on classes can be found here.
   The classes have been postponed for a while. Eventually they will start up again, but we're still getting settled in to the HQ.

Congrats to Tru and Mage, who have both been promoted to R3 recently!

Congrats, Tru and Mage. And also congrats to Dante for making it into the AoB today.


Third time I've crashed the server already, I'm on a roll ;3

Latest AoB(E) Project:





I don't want to go into details until I get more done on this, but it is a new sort of computer. It actually runs on separate components, and it's programmable, all done with events.
I've spent three days on this so far, so I wanted to post about it to protect myself from build thieves. Anyway, this project is a lot of fun to work on and it has great potential to be a new breed of Blockland computer.
Credit goes to myself on this one.

[PS] Sorry about the photo quality. They're in .jpg format.
