Third Week's a Charm!

Hello there new and old members as well as Guests of Surreal! This is going to be quite a chunky news post, so get your reading glasses ready (if you have a pair). I'll be breaking this post up into sections to make it easier to navigate through and read.

Surreal's dramatic rise in activity
This week, the third week that Surreal has been open - more noticeably the past 2 days have been nothing short of surreal. Yesterday alone I accepted 14 applications! I wouldn't have expected that we would have such a boost in activity, exposure and member-base than the one we received yesterday. With this boost in activity and the addition of many new faces within the community, it will be a given that I will need to look for some people to look after the clan, i.e. some more staff members.

I won't be taking applications for staff, I will just be noting behavior, attitude and resourcefulness as well as timezones when I ultimately make my decision towards who will assist me in running this clan. Don't get disappointed if you are not picked - this does not mean you were not worthy; it simply means either your timezone was not what I'm looking for or I haven't got a chance to properly get to know you yet - there will be other chances!

On a side note, make sure you are nice and welcoming to all of our new visitors; keep up the great work on recruiting for the clan, I'm very proud!

The almighty skill war
Surreal has been challenged to a skill war in Hunter, Agility and Thieving by White Skillers - we have accepted this challenge. Members that are Provisional and up, please check the Democracy forum for your take on participation with this war. I'd like to have as much people trying out as possible! Don't disappoint on our very first war!

Some quick reminders...
Events are at a low number this week, but will move to a higher number next week as I was not expecting such a large hit in activity so quickly. Please hang in there, enjoy Saturday's event and make sure you check the Events forum after all the events are over for this week.

Agility Skill Week will start next week, make sure you're all geared up and informed, hit up the Skill Week Competitions forum for more information. It's not too late to register your entry into the tracker, the registration form for the Skill Week still works and is awaiting your input! Don't miss it!!!

Last but certainly not least, be sure to help Surreal grow even more, tell your friends, and enjoy the fun of the clan. If you have any feedback, let us know. Have a great time and happy skilling!
