[Poledra]

[Corki]

Well, here I am - better late than never! You caught me when I was on a supposed LoA! lol!

 

Yeap, we do have loads of drinks, but just make sure you don't spill any of the important ones! ;) You can spill as much TQ as you like, just not Brew! Anyway, good to have you on board, and expect a fun idea from me that involves the Band and the Wolfies!

 

Now, here is every Banders' favourite post!

 

*official spiel*

 

Welcome Pol! An email explaining important information about the Band is currently sitting in your inbox! Take a read!

 

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 new Executive Officer, F Horn of Valere, or I, 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 newsletter, The Hornsounder

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

- any DM project we may have (currently a Battle Project, so speak to Horn if interested)

- 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 4 free strikes. This enables you to break Band Law 4 times without being punished my the Redarms, the Band's 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 4 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! Expect one soon! 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, and 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 division, and can fight anyone in the Band! It is currently being revised, but the ideas will all be the same!

 

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...

 

*hands Pol a Marshal-General's Special Battle Brew*

 

Psst! It's the best of the lot...but doesn't come out that often!

 

CARAI AN SHEN AN CALHAR!!!!!

[Lanthirrhos]

AHH! and Pol too! i go away for half a day...

[Poledra]

great! It seems when I get back on the 6th or 7th I'll be able to start really earning points since I'll be going halfway across the US to meet my Boyfriend/Warder for the first time

 

also I'm getting some new CDs so this is gonna be sweet! Even if Stephen sayd I don't really need to join another Org, I love to discuss music and travels. they seem to be the center points of my life, lol

 

and yes, me too 12th ;)

 

*gladly takes the sacred Marshal-General's Special Battle Brew and takes a big swig of it*

 

mmm, nice! gimme a bit longer here, I may decide it's better than my own special TQ ;) :P
