I took the lead in Community because I think it is absolutely critical to the site, really wanted to understand how it worked, and also felt I had a few brief contributions to throw into the mix. I feel like I've done what I set out to do, and now the role is better served by someone who is of the community.

Dispatch Trivia - Round 10 of 10 by iAmCaffeine show: 10th installment in the great dispatch trivia contest
The race for first place is still on and we've had a couple of new entrants join late into the competition - even if you enter only the last round there is a chance to win a prize. The final edition of the Dispatch Trivia will feature a extra-long section of twenty sections. To make things slightly harder, not all of the answers can be find in issues of the Dispatch. Good luck. betiko been part of?Guerillas' Double Elimination Singles tournament?Map Master Triples Edition: Europe 1914 tournament?Scoreboard after Round 8 Ffraid (88)dakky21 (87)Hannibal 19 (28)anamainiacks (19)Gilligan (17)macbone (10) Leehar (9)Round 9 Answers DoomYoshi : viewtopic.php?f=8&t=204120 DiM Serreski
show: prize update
It's been a while since this contest began (October 2nd of last year!) so I figure we should refresh everyone's memory about the prizes:Subject: CC Dispatch [Issue 104 02-10-13] Dices, Bots, and Caffeine Here at the Dispatch we've decided to start a small, regular trivia for our beautiful readers! For the next ten issues there will be a series of questions all about Conquer Club and the Dispatch. A prize will be issued every issue for the winner; either three months of shiny premium or free entry into the grand
Conquer Cup . You can only win once, but it's still worth submitting answers every week, because whoever has the most correct answers after ten issues will win a year of premium! In the case of a tie for first place, a series of five quick-fire questions will be hosted in Live Chat.
Furthermore, the top five players after the tenth issue will all receive General Achievement medals. Ties for second through to fifth place will be PM'd a set of 10 trivia questions. If there are more ties, everyone gets free coffee (aka we'll think of another solution). Finally, one player who enters the trivia every issue, will be awarded a six month premium.
Please note, all answers must be PM'd to iAmCaffeine before the next Dispatch is released. Answers sent elsewhere will be disregarded. IN ADDITION for this round alone .
Around the Forums The World Cup is the biggest story in most media today day, and sure enough, it has produced the
fastest growing discussion thread that our Off-topics forum has seen in a long time. If you would like to offer your predictions on the Cup or your commentary on the, ahem, competent referees, pull up a soapbox and let fly!
