MAUL Administration System Launched MAUL is eGO's brand new unified admin management system. This system replaces aging web panels for SourceMod admin assignment and will provide a framework for future administration functions such as ban management. Currently, MAUL allows for any community member to enter and verify their SteamID. Leadership in turn will be able to easily manage promotions and administrator access to servers. There will be an informal discussion/question answering session tomorrow (9/2) on Ventrilo. Expect an announcement late evening PST (~6:00).

Ribbons Updating The website transition is almost complete, and I'm sure everyone agrees that Dominion has done an excellent job. R.E.D has contributed fantastic art too. One of the last details to take care of is the ribbons, or awards. At this time all the ribbons are being redesigned and reissued. Within a week you may notice your awards being removed or renamed. This is being done to consolidate the system, which, in the past, awarded different ribbons depending on what division you participated in. The new system will give awards from the same set of ribbons. Please hold off on requesting ribbons at this time.

CoD4 Server Changes The leadership of the CoD4 division has changed the 24 man Hardcore tactical server at 72.232.196.165:28930 to a to 40 man Hardcore TDM. All maps except shipment, killhouse and winter crash are in rotation. The 24 man server was not pulling as many players as they had hoped because of the strict rules of tactical gameplay and the low number of players allowed. Gameplay rules of tactical no longer apply, although all usual eGO rules do. This change is a test to see how well we can do to create a popular CoD4 server. Get in there and check it out folks. <a href="http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/72.232.196.165:28930/" target="_blank"><img...

COD4 Meet and Greet 6:00PM Pacific 7:00PM Mountain 8:00PM Central 9:00PM Eastern As most of you knew (or did not know, including me) I have been scrim captain for COD4 division and I have been lacking in my duties. As in I really haven't set up a scrim for us ever before. With this in mind I have big plans for our division scrims. The first scrim that I will be hosting will be a Meet and Greet on August the 16th at our TDM server - 72.232.196.164:28930. For those of you who do not know how we handle scrims on eGO. We will be locking the server down for an hour and making it our personal playground. All players in our clans from all ranks are invited to join the scrim and Meet some of the higher ranks. People of higher ranks are...

Wow, that's a lot of time! Since the award system is working again, it's time to recognize our leadership and their time of service. It doesn't matter what division; leadership is leadership. I was told once that council doesn't get ribbons, but that's pishtosh. If you're going to devote time and effort to something, there is no reason you shouldn't be recognized for it, regardless. Thank you council and community managers for all you've done and continue to do for eGO. So without further ado here are the ribbons: MostlyHarmless: ~1 year (11 months) GardenGroveVW: 1 year Masterofpuppets: 1 year DrunkenSailor: 2 years Slayr357: 2 years Kamikize Tommy: 2 years Dominion: 2 years Artimus: 2 years JohnT: 2 years Kendle: 2 years 6.
