Taking a Break; Someone will be holding my spot for me..

Even with the new map changes, I have played cha nearly non-stop since 2007. I have been trained, trained people, become a shaman, recuited members, promoted and demoted members, managed the clan by kicking inactive members, organized clan games, hosted plenty of cha, organized tournaments, played the strongest players and often won, came up with ultimate builds, and became chief. I have been thinking of taking a break for a while now.

Since I will be taking a break and do not know when I will be back, I have decided to pass on chief to another active member in the clan. They will either be just holding my spot or possibly replacing me. If I am gone too long and the member does a great job being the chief then I will not mind them keeping it.

Glorn is liked by many people, is the current editor, and is arguably the strongest player in cha at the moment. He would not be a bad choice, but, we sometimes have our differences and he has a lot on his plate with editing the map. Glorn has also not been in the clan nearly as long as some of the other players.

Querty gets along well with me, is a good solid cha player, and has been in the clan forever. The problem with him is that him is that him and Glorn really don't get along sometimes(its not good for shamans to be arguing bitterly with the chief) and that he makes impulsive decisions sometimes.

Peon is a great player although he tends to play more public games than clan games. Unfortunately he has been very inactive lately although he should be better about that soon. Still, I can't tell if he will be on enough.

Yiff is a great player and is decently mature. I think his main account used to be in the clan and then he made yiff his main. Yiff might not be a bad choice but I am looking more for someone to hold my spot.

Imdawinner_chao used to be the chief, but, I just don't think he is active enough.

Iron m4idan used to be a chief and has made considerable progress lately. Still, progress over a rather short period of time does not mean that he is held highly enough by me for a promotion to chief.

Verti could stand to do more things with the clan. He is mature and on often. I considered making him a shaman but ran out of room.

My desision: Verti will be the new chief. If/when I return and get skilled at the current cha, I might expect the position returned to me. If Verti takes a break too, I expect him to pass it to Glorn. I urge Verti to not pass his spot to anyone as long as he still plays cha and is active. Hopefully he will be a good chief even if he isn't the strongest player.

I will still get on the forum from time to time if anyone wants to contact me.

Terra, did something happen personally?

I'm sorry if something did and it was bad :(

I don't know if vert would want to be cheif. He has a baby now so he might be just as busy as glorn is with his baby (the map.)

I do get along with glorn. He is my second favorite guy in the clan :P (No, I'm not sucking up, he is and your my favorite)

I have gotten used to having an X-box now so I will start playing wc again. (most likely tomorrow)

I personally believe that the chief should be yiff. The guy is awesome at cha, nice and is already shaman.

if I had to, I'd say Yiff is 3rd best in the clan!

If he doesn't want it I'd be more than happy to try and maintain chao.


(Btw can you pm me an explanation of my impulses? I've been told I make wise choices by rl people so I'm surprised that you would get that from what I do. I don't want you posting it in case it is embarassing :P

That's my two cents.

my thoughts:

I think you could still be chief, though I have nothing against verti. I don't believe we really need a chief. We have some good shaman who recruit players, really, we have been running on 3 shaman for a while now (peon, imda, and you have been busy IRL) and we have been growing fast, and teaching many members how to play.

What does a chief do that a shaman doesnt? They promote new shaman, isn't that it? I mean, we really need imda and peon to either play CHA or get out, but no one is gonna do anything about that anyway... I dont think verti should have that decision put on him either, so it wont change.

Verti is better than having you AFK, but verti as a shaman would be just as useful. I support anarchy as much as the next person, and think a chief-less clan would be awesome! Well, that plus we could have another good shaman, *cough cough*

More than anything this is my suggesting to clean up 2 shaman spots that arent used... But gratz to verti, guess he is the new go-to guy for clan issues ^_^

I pretty much have to agree with your "summing up" of the candidates... Yiff is great, but hasnt been here long enough, maybe if he joined a long time ago. I am busy, and there is nothing I would do with chief that I cant do as shaman (other than you-know-what). Querty is a little too passionate and acts before he thinks sometimes. Iron acts before he thinks a lot of times. Imda is never on, and never plays CHA. Peon plays enfos all day, and has never been strictly loyal to our clan. Verti, i dont think anyone can say anything bad about. My only complaint is that I dont know him that well, but that is something that can and will be easily changed.

Wall of texttttt!!!!

Sad to see you go terra, hope you are back by winter to see what is to come of the map ^_^
Gratz to verti, you are da head hancho!

LabmonkeyBot for cheif? No seriously. That way nobody is chief, and we can an unlimited amount of "shamans".

No I want a real member to succeed me. I am going to replace imda and peon before I go and if they want their spots back they can take it up with verti and Glorn.

I'll make all these changes after i hear something from Verti.

I talked to verti a little today, he seemed rather indifferent, kind of shocked I think.

I am planning to fill the 2 shaman spots with clan members, but, I suppose if one leaves and verti is ok with it then its alright.
