Welcome Home RR Talyn Al Carn

[Taymist]

Welcome to the Band, Talyn, glad you found your way to the best Org at DM. 

 

*hands a couple of brews*

 

Now, for the official stuff  ;D you've been added to the Band's usergroup so you should be able to see our private boards above the main board now. Check your inbox as I sent you a PM with some important information.

 

Look forward to seeing you at the off site for your training. Have fun and hang on to anything that's not securely fixed down as the Marshal General, Corki, will be here with the Official Spiel very soon and it's guaranteed to blow your mind. 8)

[Katiora]

[Alishandra]

Hi!  Welcome to the Band, I hope you enjoy your stay here :D  I'm Alishandra, the LG (Lieutenant General, or Second-in-Command) of the Archers Regiment.  We look forward to your training in our regiment!  *Passes a few flaming shots down to Talyn*  Don't forget to check out the off-site boards, our home-away-from-home :D  But most important of all...have FUN!!!

[Samuraiflip05]

Hello, I'm Samurai....I'll be your RLO assigning your tasks when you are with the Archers.  Don't worry....they sound menacing, but they are loads of fun.  See you soon.

[Talya]

Welcome to the Band Talyn, You're sure to have fun here.

 

I'm Talya, and Senior RLOLO of the Infantry and will be looking after you on your week to the Infantry during your RR training. Don't worry we'll be nice....honest ;) :D

 

*hands the RR a Brew or 5*

 

Now hold on tight the MG should be here soon to welcome you ;D

[Corki]

And the M-G is here to wow you with the Official Spiel! So make sure you are holding onto everything and anything! We don't want to be hauling more recruits down from the trees or the flagpole! Ready?

 

*official spiel*

 

Welcome Talyn! An email explaining important information about the Band is currently sitting in your inbox! Take a read! Also check your PMs too! ;)

 

Basically, the Band of the Red Hand is the Travel and Music ORG at DM! By signing up for the Band, you have joined the successful Raw Recruit Scheme. By signing up for the off board site, you will be able to experience the whole process to the maximum! The Executive Officer, BridMorgan will assign you to one of the three Regiments (Archers, Cavalry, Infantry) for a week, where you will be given various tasks to perform, hoping that you will get a picture of what time in each Regiment is like. After a week with each Regiment, you will be asked to pick your final choice of a Regiment.

 

While being a Raw Recruit, there is nothing stopping you from earning points like any other Band member. Points lead to promotion within the Band. Below is a list of possible ways to earn points:

 

- writing reviews on places to visit/holidays you have been on

- writing reviews on music albums and gigs

- replying to other people's reviews and asking questions

- composing Jak O' the Shadow verses

- getting articles published in our monthly newspaper, The Hornsounder

- posting in the monthly roll call in the Band's private boards here at DM

- any DM project we may have, which includes our Quote Project (speak to Amavia and Angyl)

- and much much more I cannot think of right now!

 

If you complete your time as a Raw Recruit within 3 to 4 weeks, you will get a special award (called the Raw Recruit Stripe) which you can add to your siggy as well!

 

While being a Raw Recruit, you get 3 free strikes. This enables you to break Band Law 3 times without being punished by the Redarms, the Band's very own police force. If they see any Law breaking, they will either drag you up for a trial or give you a fun spot fine to do (usually 100 lines of something witty). Channeling is a major no-no in the Band. As is spilling Battle Brew, our beloved drink! Once you have used up your 3 strikes, or join the Band's ranks officially, you will face the full force of Band Law like any other Bander does!

 

Of course, we are not all about working 24/7, as we do let our hair down now and then! We are famous for our bar brawls, which happen frequently!Keep an eye out for one! We also like jokes, tales, funny pictures - things that will make us laugh!

 

We also have many games - at DM, which can be found in the stickies, or the Lottery set up in our Dicing with Jak O' the Shadows board, which you will see once you have signed up for the private boards here at DM. There are also several games on the off board site as well! Also, take the lessons to learn our ORG Game, based on the luck of dice! You get the selected weapons of your Regiment, and can fight anyone in the Band! We'll give you a practise fight so you can get your bearing until you are ready to challenge a Bander. Also look out for our festivals of various games using the dice roller and ORG Game. There are many staff members for the Game who will be willing to help you out.

 

Once you have been added to the list for the private boards here, you will also be able to participate in our lottery game, which takes place in the Dicing With Jak O' the Shadows board. It is a lot of fun, and your winnings can buy you various goodies!

 

If you have a Facebook account, search for the group 'DM Band of the Red Hand'. Click to apply. Then PM/email Tay, Brid or I to say you've requested to join, and we'll accept it. I'm using Facebook as another way to communicate with Banders!

 

If I have left anything out (which I expect I have!), do not hesitate to ask questions! Someone will be able to answer them for you!

 

One last thing...
