Your Responsibilities

[kev]

jmdt – Lieutenant is second in command. He/she can temporarily replace any team member, including the General.

Lava golem – Strategist is in charge of planning team overall strategy. Each round, Strategist starts a topic that talks about opponents strengths and weaknesses, for example what cards the opponents have left, what kind of decks they like to use, etc.

Hyroen – Vault Organizer makes sure that the team Vault is up-to-date at all times by adding and removing cards when needed.

Acsabi44 – Deckbuilder starts a deck topic for each round. Everyone on the team joins deckbuilding discussion, but it's Deckbuilders job to make sure that all the decks are ready on time and that none of the decks are illegal.

catalyzeme – Duel Organizer is in charge of all team duels happening during a round. If one or more team members are unable to fight their duels, Duel Organizer must inform the General as soon as possible and try to find a replacement.

stinnger – Salvager starts the Salvaging/Discarding topic. Everyone on the team joins the discussion, but it's Salvagers job to make sure that all discarding and salvaging are done on time.

majofa – Substitute can temporarily replace any team member during duels, and can salvage 3 cards if he or she wins (other players substituting cannot salvage anything).

Rookie is a full member of the team but doesn't have any special responsibilities.
If anyone has a problem with the role you were given please let me know ASAP.

The above means that catalyzeme will create one thread, and Lava golem, Acsabi44, and stinnger will create a thread every round.  In addition to the individual roles above, I expect all eight of you to contribute to each of those threads as well as initial vaultbuilding (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,13686.0.html), and log onto chat if at all possible.  It's a lot to ask, but if the first War taught us anything it's that the most active teams have the best shot at winning this thing.
One last thing.  brettbstock (likely to become our rookie) had the following banner created:



If anyone wants to try to improve upon that, feel free and we’ll let the team decide.  If not, (and I sure as hell can’t do any better,) I’ll go with what we’ve been given.

[Acsabi44]

1, Thank you for appointing me as a deckbulider. I am positive that this post is the one where I feel most at home.

2, brettsbstock modified the banner, he added each team member's name to it. You can find it in the Team Fire Propaganda thread. It looks cool!

[Hyroen]

I'd like to point out that as much as I love the banner and all the dimensions do have to be 300px by 500px or 500px by 300px. I've made one myself for team Air. I was hoping to be general and promised Pervepic to make one.

The one brettbstock made simply does not look like it's either of the options. I will ask him via PM if it is, and if not, if it can be modified.

[lava golem]

Thanks for appointing me as strategist, I'll try to do my job as well as possible. Time to lurk! I'm active for like at least 2 hours on chat everyday so activeness probably won't be a problem for me Very solid team.

Requirements and restrictions:
- max size 300px x 500px (banner) or  500px x 300px (flag)

Tip for the future: if you quote the thread containing the banner you can see it's dimensions.  The current ones are 450x150, so I think we're ok.

If anyone wants to submit one, lemme know.  Otherwise I'll put the following two to a poll among the nine of us.

[Hyroen]

Lol... um, the dimensions should be 300 x 500 or 500 x 300, not 450 x 150. Though I'm sure it can be easily modified. Vertical blocks or the such can be added so that it's either of the correct dimensions.

Oh and kev, I know how to check the dimensions of the picture put in the post, but it might not be the correct dimensions of the picture itself.

[Acsabi44]

That's max size. 450x150 is less than 500x300, so I think it's good.

[Hyroen]

All too true, sorry. The rules have changed since I last saw. Excuse me. I'll make sure to tell brettbstock to ignore my last PM.

[kev]

Poll added.  When we choose one, our propaganda page will be complete.  If you have any suggestions regarding that page, now's the time.

[lava golem]

The fire symbol looks slightly worse on the one with names, the names blur out the flames. I voted for without names

[Hyroen]

I'd say to simply put the names in a different format, the names there are good, and I like that, but not the way they are now.

*Chooses none of the current options*

The current picture is 450 x 150 correct? Why not use the remaining 150px of vertical space divided into say 50 top and 100 bottom or maybe 30 top 120 bottom to insert *nice* firey backgrounds and to there insert names of the General and members, while leaving the principal image intact and uncovered.

We're not restricted for space, let's use that to our advantage.

[catalyzeme]

I like what Hyroen is thinking. Even if a new background would clash, just adding thin black bars on the top and bottom (like a widescreen movie on a 4:3 tv) and evenly spacing out everyone's name in a classy, simple font might look good.
