TRE's Got Talent!

Our first comedy event "TRE's Got Talent" is scheduled for this Thursday at 8:30PM Est (00:30 Game Time). It will be hosted in the Clan Citadel's Theatre. The goal for each contestant is to come up on stage one at a time and dish out their best jokes to the 3 judges. Have fun with it, and do your best to make them laugh! There will be 2 separate rounds with a winner/prizes in each. Round 1 will have jokes delivered through in-game public chat. Round 2 will have jokes delivered through Discord Voice. The prize for each round's winner will be 5m GP and the Discord title 'The April Fool" for 1 year. Contestants cannot win more than 1 round. Judges are chosen on a first come, first serve basis. If you would like to be a judge, please PM any Senate member and they will put you on the list!

New Senate Office

With the increasing popularity of PvM, we are in the works of creating a new Senate office that is dedicated towards managing our PvM events, lessons, spreadsheet, and the like. Nothing has been finalized yet, but we are expecting to have 1 Superior seat and 2 or 3 Inferior seats.

-
Discord Titles

We are slowly adding a few PvM-based Discord titles to people, depending on your recorded experience on the TRE PvM Handbook/Spreadsheet. These will be focused on whether a person is a learner, experienced, or a teacher for a specific boss.

Attendance:

Some final insights now that the Renaissance and PFO threads are going to be finally forgotten once Page 51 eats them.

The Senate voted 7-2 to end the empire and transition to a Republic with only Fatheromalley and Skillz319 dissenting. I had received confirmation that 1119mmm would be on the day that The Roman Empire was officially declared to be a republic known as "Rome". He didn't arrive which made my actions in making the new thread appear terribly short-sighted and poorly planned. That appearance is what actually happened as we had planned 1119mmm would be on and leading the way and never considered that he wouldn't be on. It wouldn't be until the "Roma Imperium" days that 1119mmm would log in again.

Between the events of the Senate vote and rejoining Roma Imperium under Pyrithione_1, Sasa254 and I collaborated on a basic clan structure that I ended up using under the name of The Holy Knights (later changed to The Kingdom of Arthalion). Taken mostly from The Roman Empire's structure, THK/TKA's structure would later be merged with some of Pyrithione_1's "Roma Imperium" reforms by Skillz319, Freedomfox59, and myself to make up the inaugural format of The Renaissance. Therefore, in a manner of speaking, Sasa254 can be seen as accurately listed in this thread as a founder of The Renaissance.

As a minor aside, Asian War Theatre would later serve as an important shot in the arm for The Renaissance. There had been a war between the two guilds and only one of their members showed up. That member ended up joining the Renaissance and most of the guild followed that member. A small handful of those members played important roles in The Renaissance's social aspects (especially Flamemage919, Plokon3, Jor7000, Looney352, and others) for a relatively long period of time. Looney352 did not help found the Renaissance nor did he contribute much in the way of developing that clan other than being a longtime member who mostly kept to himself.

Minor notes:

Jor7000 used to change lyrics to songs by a crappy band called The Hoosiers as a way to protest against Pyrithione_1's leadership in 2009.

The best decision Pyrithione_1 ever made was abolishing Fatheromalley's little fantasy RP priesthood crap.

It's fantastic to see that The Roman Empire is still around and more vibrant than it ever was when I was around. This was the first clan where I was given a chance to thrive and it was an excellent learning experience thanks primarily to Pyrithione_1, 1119mmm, Rao Bear, Skillz319, and Sasa254.

There's a lot of things I'd change about how I approached certain issues and events in The Roman Empire and The Renaissance but that's how life works. You get older and wiser but can't really do much about the past. No more gender bending (funny how big that got these past few years) or sailor hats.

All the best,
Pioneer Fall

PS: Sasa254 is still a god in his own mind and a legend to the rest of us. On the off chance that Xboxlover0_1 or Lewlewako read this - you are remembered with much affection.

It's good to see you, Pio. The details you have stored away at those points surely surpass mine at this point. Although any time someone uses a throwback like Pyrithione I just get misty in the eyes.

Jor had a knack for protesting against me. TNF being a prime example. However Lewlewako joined TRE about a year ago I believe, and went inactive again very quickly.

As for our dear Mally, he is now banned permanently in TRE. I tolerated his little church in order to give him his own contained sphere of creativity, and more importantly because he lit fires in the POC community that allowed me to involve TRE in. It was a nice proxy for us, until it became an odd little roleplay nightmare that had to be nipped.
