Title: Champions (Guild)
Post by: Diomedes on September 17, 2011, 12:54:51 am
This is the official Thread of Champions (Guild).  Herein will be outlined: the Modus Operandi of Champions, the Structure of Champions (Guild), the Weapons and Armour of Champions (Guild), the Builds of Champions (Guild), the Banner of Champions (Guild), and The Hall of Champions (Guild).


Modus Operandi
This guild is a collection of like-minded individuals united by their common bonds of Champion-ness and Awesome-ness-issity.  Being a guild, rather than a clan, members of Champions (Guild) may be both members of Champions (Guild) and members of their own personal clan.  Champions (Guild) does not discriminate in its membership so long as its members exemplify the chief virtues: Champion-ness and Awesome-ness-issity.  It is the view of Champions (Guild) that Champion-ness and Awesome-ness-issity is not a naturalistic property of the world which can be identified as something specific such as "skill" or "sexiness," but that it is instead an ideal expressed in a person's every thought and action.  It is a goal of such people (Champions), that they may encourage others to be Champions and, if able, be awesome unto others as they would have others be awesome unto them.


The Structure and Membership of Champions (Guild)
Champions (Guild) is a collection of equals.  Decisions, such as those concerning membership or guild design, will be decided through a discussion amongst Champions.  These will be called Champion Discussions.  Members may, if they chose, wear tags signifying their membership in Champions (Guild).  Such tags, or common banners, are not necessary for membership in Champions (Guild).  All specific features of the guild, such as designated diplomats, translators, horse-whisperers, cats, or Dj's, will be titled "Champion [position] of Champions."  Such titles also need not be worn as tags.


The Weapons and Armour of Champions (Guild)
Weapons or armour are The Weapons and Armour of Champions (Guild) if it is worn by a Champion.  Weapons or armour that is not worn by a member of Champions (Guild) is not Champion equipment.  Even a lowly sickle, in the hands of a Champion, is a mighty weapon of Champions (Guild).  Such a sickle would be dubbed "The Champion Sickle."


The Build or Champions (Guild)
Any character build used by a Champion is an official Build of Champions (Guild).  It is the Champion which makes the build, not the build which makes the Champion.


The Banner of Champions (Guild)
Any banner worn by a Champion is a Banner of Champions (Guild).  Though, in the interim between the founding and establishment of Champions (Guild), we shall take this portrait as our motto:

The Hall of Champions (Guild)
The teamspeak of Champions (Guild) will be negotiated more thoroughly if there is a declared public interest in Champions (Guild).

It's a work in progress, I think, but in principle a good plan.  Tears, wanna join?  You can be the Champion Korean Pop Star of Champions.


Also: "Networking"?  Go on...

There was a similar association in original Quakeworld Teamfortress, it was called Paragon.  Basically the best 10-25 of the Soldier class was invited and you added -P- to the end of your name which indicated that you were a pretty big badass.

No changing your tag unless you want to.  Being a Champion is a state of mind, not a tag  :D

Coolio.  I'd be up for that, though I'm on less now that classes have started again.

_GUILD suffix is pretty weak man.  Something like

-C-
-CMP-
-CHAMP-

It could be anything, really.  If this does turn into a sort of meeting place for new+veteran players a few folks may opt to have CHAMPION_ or CHAMP_-type tag.  Does anyone know of a teamspeak that could happily support 10ish additional folks occasionally?  I'm thinking of a Champion Night, where some folks get together in a common teamspeak for an evening, regardless of their respective clans.

Yuppers.  Most of the Champions I've recruited are NA as well, though I think a few are bi.
