Weekly Event Winner : Reduan

Blog Contest
First of all, my heartfelt congratulations to Rococo and Leoz for winning the Blog contest. Though there were only 3 Bloggers and all three won, I hope we will start a trend where more people will contribute to these forums.

Thanks to Wussking and Lezard for organising this contest and for the presents. To those who are curious, for the first round of contest, Wussking was kind enough to give everyone TWO prizes instead of one. How the prizes was distributed was as follows:

Wuss will ask the 1st prize winner to choose a number from 1-9. behind each number is a prize. After that the 2nd prize winner will then pick a number and get the prize behind that number.

Hence, I was fortunate enough to get 2nd position. The item I received was an Original Figther Uniform(costume). For the bonus prize, I received an Esquive Touche Ring. For those of you who hadn't known, i am currently using a musk musk scout combo. Hence, these prizes was actually disappointing at first for me as I could not use them, and I have no idea who the ring is for. I initially even intend to sell those items away.
However, thinking again, since this was the first time i got the prize, i should instead keep it as a souvenir to recognise the recognition given for the work.

Congrats to Leoz and Rococo again for winning the contest.


Promotion of Senior to Executive

I would like to send my congrats to Llewelyn and Ueto for being promoted from Senior to Exective with me. We did well enough to make it far and get our promotion. Although we are under probation, I hope we can maintain the post and overcome the probation period. To those who tried and did not get through, I hope you guys will try again in the future. Do not let the loss be a disappointment and get you down. Instead, use it as fuel to bring you further in the future. For every things that happens, it happens for a reason, be it known or not known to us in the current moment.

Getting promoted was not an easy walk in the part event. It took us more then past our bedtime and close to 4-5a.m resulting in an hard and tough 6 hours of torrid test.
The first test we have was a PVP test. The PVP test aim is to see how you are able to coordinate ur characters and organise your movement and tactics. Since you are going to be going against Lezard and Wuss, Victory should be the furtherest from your mind. They are actually looking how you move, knockback, control your characters separately, cover each other and teamwork with your partners. Hence, my advice is for those taking it in the future to practice their keyboard shortcuts (eg F1, F2 and etc).

The 2nd test was about hunting in groups, we had to hunt down 2 Violent bears and 2 Violent Ghost. Hence, we had to organise among ourselves, while Leoz and Rey keep a watch and look and how we could work in teams and have leadership. One thing to note is that Leadership does not mean that you have to lead always or have the loudest voice. Its also about learning when to step in, to make positive contribution and sound judgement. There are a lot of aspects how one can be of a leader.

The 3rd test was to hunt for a certain boss spider. This took coordination and it resembles and shows how we can organise the kill. Since this time, the boss is much stronger than us, its more of how we can work together to killing it compared to the previous where how we can organise to hunt it down.

In the end, It was a great experience for those who went through it. Everyone, including professor, i hope will be able to learn something from it like i did.

Congrats to Llewelyn and Ueto again for the promotion. Also thanks to those who was involved in this promotion event
