    Featured Brawler
    With the launch of a new server, more input is always very much appreciated. This Brawler has shown his dedication to KitBrawl 2.0. through numerous threads that he has posted about it. A helpful and dedicated member who is popular on the forums, as is evidenced by his over 1000 positive ratings, this person also finds time to promote the server through his involvement in the build team. @sportyman56, we salute you! Congratulations on being this months featured Brawler! Keep up what you are doing!

    Trivia Question
    Last month's question was: How many Minecraft accounts with the name of one the 25 Mario Party characters listed here have played Minecraft Party? (Names with spaces in them are disqualified as you can not have spaces in Minecraft names.)
    The answer was 6: Luigi, Mario, Toad, Waluigi, Wario, Yoshi. @TheZombieKat answered it first and earned a forums trophy!

    This month's question is: Who was the first non-staff member to log onto the new Raid server?
    The answer will be revealed along with the winner in the next edition of The Brawl News.

    Group Advertisement
    For a while now, wild west players have been asking; "Why must all the rebel bases, shops, and sheriff stations look the same?" Well, for a couple players, this question turned into a mission. They created a build group and asked the other community members to join in and do what they can to create a more diverse wild west! Since then, this small build group has grown in numbers drastically and they're still building! Through their contributions and dedication, they are bringing together the server community and helping to make the server more enjoyable for all. This small group of wildwest builders may have begun as a rag-tag team of vigilantes, but now I'd say they're a force to be reckoned with! Keep up the wonderful work guys and if anyone would like to help, you can let your ideas be heard here.

    Great Month everyone
    Trivial Question: NomNuggetNom - He was staff, isn't anymore therefore he was first non-staff member on.

    Fixed :c
    Slack 10.000 messages limit makes it really hard to get all of promotions right.

    Build team being on the staff list in the member section means that I and TheBends should be at the staff news for promotions, right?

    Since @MR_EVIL_OVERLORD is already Elite, is this win really "counted"?
    That's completely pointless :/

    You know that grammatically the question was formulated as in non-staff member at the time of the opening.
    It's called simultaneity in language.

    Not trying to be a pain in the ass just saying XD

    Surely YT ranks are staff - Since they are in the staff section of the forums members:

    Ah... well I have no clue who it is then. I thought they weren't staff because they can't get in the staff rooms on Teamspeak.

    I'm the same with you... got no clue. I've searching in the obvious places for the info, and in more discrete places - can't find it.

    @Lekosa1 should be promoted to mod.

    #1 all those reports are worthy of special recognition.

    #2 Mods should be "recruited". Rather than passively waiting for people to apply. Go and recruit them. The people you recruit will be much better because they bring skill sets that fit the role.

    To be a great leader you have to be aggressive. Unless you are content with being a middle of the pack organization trending down.

    Recruit amazing people and they will do amazing things.
