Pairs- Askers.                                   Answerers. NNN with TEL (duh) QF with SMnoMi Pizza with elwolfje OldScool with blaze. This was randomly chosen. Start with first pair. Be fair. Say the truth, the answerers.

So, yesterday, me and @Old-Scool-Apex were discussing on how to bring activity to their club, and they came up with daily challenges that can be done every day to win cheers, based on the activity / contribution of the tasks in the challenge. Apex also let me use the idea, but modify it so that the format is in weekly challenges instead. So, here are the 10 challenges for this week: 1. Post at least 10 notes in a day (without spamming) for at least 5 out of the 7 days. (35 cheers + 20 for each additional day) 2. Win a 10 minute rapid game with at least 90% accuracy (30 cheers), @PGT5665, @Old-Scool-Apex 3. Create 10 vote chess seeks (requires coordinator) (25 cheers) - @Old-Scool-Apex 4. Get a brilliant move in at least 2 of your games (20 cheers + 15 for each additional brilliant move) 5. Send 2 submissions for Game of the Day (10 cheers) - @Old-Scool-Apex, @PGT5665 6. Create a forum game (60 cheers) - @Old-Scool-Apex, @PGT5665 7. Win a game with at least 5 great+ moves (30 cheers + 10 for each great+ move above 5) 8. Reach a score of at least 30 on a puzzle rush (30 cheers) - @Midgets_Are_Better 9. Get a DOUBLE brilliant move! (75 cheers) - @Midgets_Are_Better 10. Complete all other weekly challenges (200 cheers)

@Old-Scool-Apex - Easy challenge (won cheers) (Oct 9 and 13 and 14) Both challenges (Oct 24) @blazechessabc - Hard challenge (Oct 9), easy challenge (Won cheers) (Oct 10, oct 24) both challenges (Oct 23) @beastAra123 - Easy challenge (Won cheers) (Oct 23) Both challenges (Oct 29)

So basically, I've decided that the top 10 members each month will be featured in a special forum, and making the top 10 (excluding me) will earn you cheers 1st: 100 cheers + a spot on the hall of fame that is going to be introduced 2nd: 75 cheers 3rd-5th: 50 cheers 6th-10th: 25 cheers Anyway, the list: 1st: @TheEnlighteningsLightning (I'm the owner, duh) 2nd: @Old-Scool-Apex (Works hard every single day to create puzzles of the day, as well as helping the club by creating dozens of matches. An awesome member all-around.) 3rd: @NotNerdyN3rd (The co-owner of TtB and the source of my club management skills, helped with creating the description and sorting out several difficult decisions. Would be 2nd if more active.) 4th: @Midgets_Are_Better (Extremely active member who brought in 15 new members during the recruitment challenge, as well as being a future participant in the august cheer giveaway challenge.) 5th: @ziggy_junior (Recruited 5 new members in the recruitment challenge, as well as creating quite a few matches upon promotion, making several forums to promote activity, and owning partner club The Believers, but pretty inactive these last few days.) 6th: @Sharsh13132013 (fairly active member who owns partner clubs -_Warrior Clan_- and The chess lovers 13, also participating in August cheer giveaway challenge.) 7th: @preptonthechessmaster (Very active, but has no other large upsides.) 8th: @ashley-equalsactually (Same as 7th, but slightly less active.) 9th: @MiracleNahar (Very active in notes, and created that one weird forum, which brought some additional activity. Would be 7th or 8th, but broke the rules by advertising.) 10th: @schach_und_dame (Semi-active member who sent several submissions for game of the day. Also was the 1st player besides the owner or co-owner to join Tour the board!) 11th: @IshaanJRagesh (Owner of partner club Undefeatable Chess, but not so active.) For anyone wondering why there was 11 spots, it is because I put myself at #1 for being the owner, so the 11th place is so there would be 10 members winning cheers. Congratulations to all who made the list!

Here you can easily visit all clubs we have partnered with, creating a seamless experience and improving the value of this club as the "airport to a plane of branching clubs to tour through"!

This is an important aspect of our club! Let's just jump straight into it, shall we? Applying for coordinator: Anyone can apply for coord, as long as they don't beg, so just state once that you would like to apply to avoid gaining a point.   (The maximum amount of permanent coordinators is 10 at the moment.) Keeping coordinator: The requirements to keep this title are quite simple: Be active, and create the occasional team match. Note: If you are going to challenge a club you are already a member of, it is preferred to make it a vote chess challenge instead of a daily tournament, otherwise you will not be able to join. Applying for admin: You actually have some requirements in order to apply for the admin title: Must have been coordinator for at least 2 weeks, posted at least 10 notes and 5 forums, and obtained less than 12 points. Remember, you must state that you are applying for admin, NOT beg! Keeping admin: For admin, the requirements are: Invite members, be active, avoid breaki rules, and make some form offother contribution to the club.  Also quick tip: If you're going on vacation, or in any other way, will not be able to fulfill your staff position, just tell me or the co-owner that you will be going offline. This gives you a lot more leeway! Admin guidelines: Since being an admin gives you extra benefits, there are extra guidelines you must follow, or you will be demoted on the spot and gain extra points as well. #1: The kick out feature should NEVER be used, as it is not a method of rule enforcement in this club. (5 points + demotion to coordinator) #2: Always check how many points someone has before giving out punishments! Not doing so can result in over-or-under-punishment! (4 points + demotion to coordinator) #3: Do NOT abuse the protection system to unfairly get off your admin duties (demotion to coordinator + admin post lost for 1 month, second infringement 4 points + demotion to member + admin post lost forever) Applying for Super Admin: This one is a little more difficult; here are the requirements:  Must have been admin  for at least 1 month, gained a decent level of respect + most importantly, MY TRUST in this club, and obtained less than 8 points! Keeping super admin: Keeping the Super Admin title is tough, unless you are me, my alt, or the co-owner!: Be very active, invite often, create team matches, create a large contribution, and look for rule-breakers! Super admin guidelines: #1: DON'T DEMOTE ANYONE unless you KNOW they broke enough rules to be demoted, and even if you KNOW they deserve it, DM ME! GET MY PERMISSION FIRST! (8 points + Demoted to coordinator, super admin post lost forever) #2: The rules of admin are more strict! (7 points + demoted to coordinator, super admin post lost forever for kicking out, 22 points for banning without permission,  6 points + demoted to coordinator for not checking points before punishing, 3 points + demotion to coordinator for first abusing protection infringement, 6 points + demoted to member, super admin post lost forever for second infringement) DO NOTE that there will occasionally be exceptions to the recruitment requirements, and I will sometimes promote people even though they have not asked or won any challenges!

Rules. Every club has them. And this one is no exception. Let's just get right into it, shall we? #1: NO SWEARING! (1 point for minor censored swears, 2 for major censored swears, 3 for minor uncensored, 4 for major uncensored) #2: No harassment of any kind (3-5 points) #3:  No begging for promotion, even coordinator (1 point for coord, 2 for admin, 3 for super admin, and 5 for owner) #4: No advertising or self promotion (1-3 points depending on severity and how many times this rule has been broken) #5: No publicly spreading rumors about members (2 points for members, 3 points for coordinators/admins, 4 points for super admins, 5 points for owner/co-owners) #6: No NSFW content!! (5-8 points) #7: No sending joke games to be featured for game of the day (1 point) #8: No stealing essential club documents (4 points 1st offense, 6 points 2nd, 8 from then on) #9: No using alts to evade punishments (Point amount changed to the amount your other acct has, plus both accounts get 3 points) The points system: This is the part where I explain why every rule has "points". The punishment/warning system is based on them! The reminders/warnings/punishments: Reminder: Just a friendly reminder of the rules (2 points) Friendly warning: Same as the reminder, but more stern (4 points) Warning 1: 24 hour mute (5 points) Warning 2: 48 hour mute (8 points) Warning 3: 1 week mute (10 points) Punishment 1: 2 week ban, will be sent an invite afterwards and then muted for 2 more weeks (15 points) Punishment 2: Banned for 1 month, will be sent and invite afterwards and then muted for 1 more month (20 points) Punishment 3: Banned for life (24 points) Staff reminders/Warnings/Punishments: Reminder: Friendly reminder of rules (2 points) Friendly warning: Same thing as reminder but more stern (3 points) Warning 1: 24 hour mute (5 points) Warning 2: 48 hour mute, demoted a level for 1 week (7 points) Warning 3: 1 week mute, demoted to member for 2 weeks, and brought up to 1 level below old post for 1 week before being given post back (10 points) Punishment 1: 2 week ban, will be sent an invite afterward, muted, and demoted to member for 2 weeks, brought back to 1 level below old post afterward (13 points) Punishment 2: 1 month ban, will be sent an invite afterward and muted for 1 more month, demoted to member and permanently lose old post (17 points) Punishment 3: Banned for life (22 points) Credits to The 8x8'ers for the "point system" used in these rules.

Guess my age

And now, I will set things right.

Do not touch any electrical component with wet hands! hey, wait a minute, Is not water an insulator of electricity? On the other hand, the human body skin is a conductor of heat. They say, touch with dried hands! Why???? Because they want us to DIE!!! 🤯💥💣

*While Rosi and Via are reuniting, an ominous noise begins to sound in the background...* TEL: What is that no--- EVERYONE GET  BACK!!! *I summon a solid wall of electricity suddenly, which just barely blocks a sudden energy attack before disintegrating* ???: Oh? I didn't expect you to actually be able to block that. TEL: RUN! BOTH OF YOU! *As soon as Rosi and Via are far enough away, I begin speaking again.* Well, well well, look who decided to return... Oopy: I did not return. I was already here, even after being banned...   TEL: You shouldn't have returned. I suspected you were hiding something about your grammar this whole time, by the way. Oopy: Oh, sure I should have returned. It's time for me to show my true form! *Oopy morphs into the devil himself, but I immediately ram into him so fast space-time itself distorts around me, and we both seem to glitch out of existence mere miles before the edge of the universe is reached in less than a millisecond.* TEL: Welcome... to MY dimension. Enjoy your suffering! Oh, by the way, no one can respawn here, not even me. *I activate the dimension's full power, and the devil is slowly strangled by 2e3.5e15 volt electricity, until he dies about a minute later* TEL: Aww man, that's boring. I was expecting at least a good fight... *leaves dimension and re-enters TtB*
