I hope you are having a great holiday season. We are growing faster than ever! It was amazing just a month ago when we first started with just a handful of players. Now we are over half of the Max cap for a guild! Some very important announcements:
 +
 
 +
*'''Promotions!'''
 +
**Congratulations to '''Nozip''' for attaining the rank of '''Officer'''! His is our first Officer to be produced through our modernized Rank system. His friendliness and abilities are a testament to his what we look for in our next generation of Officers. Carry on Nozip!
 +
**Congratulations to '''Bithetoy & Korh''' for achieving '''Member''' rank. We look forward to see both of you rise to greater levels!
 +
***All guild members who wish to be promoted, please see [http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Cloud_Nine_(Guild)#Rank_System Rank System] for more info!
 +
*'''Trading between guild members'''
 +
**I have noticed trading and loaning between guild members. This is good to help out your fellow guild members. '''However keep in mind that <Cloud Nine> is NOT responsible for any deal/loan you make between each other.''' Personally I don't like owing people money or loaning for more than I have too. And if I do, I make good on my payment immediately when possible. I find that a lot of quarrels happen because of deals not honored. We ask that if you do decide to loan/deal with another guild member that you HONOR your agreement as soon as possible. I have noted that in our '''''Rules & Guidelines'''''. If you ask me to enforce a deal you made with someone, I will decline. Trust me, you do NOT want me arbitrate in your dispute. Just keep that in mind.
 +
*'''In-Guild Recipe & Material Trade'''
 +
**'''Suprvoo & Cheshireccat''' have created a Google Document '''SK:C9 Trading Post'''. This is for in-guild trading of Materials & Recipes to help each other. If you wish to participate please contact '''Suprvoo & Cheshireccat'''. Visit [http://bit.ly/C9Trading Cloud Nine Trading Post] for more info.
 +
*'''Dissolving all Guild Alliances & Treaties'''
 +
**As the title says, I am ending all our guild treaties until further notice. There has been little interest in it so far and it is difficult to communicate between guilds.
 +
*'''Added History section'''
 +
**So we all know where we came from! Work in progress. Stay tuned!
 +
*'''Added picture'''
 +
**Yup. Finally.
 +
 
 +
The end of the year is soon! I wish you all a good holiday season!

Hello fellow guildies and lurkers. This page is still a work in progress. I've been very busy lately. See below for more information about our guild policy and events. I would like to share with you a bit of my reason for starting this guild. My dream is to build a guild that players can gather, hone their skills, become better players over time. Through organization and personal determination, I will make this dream fulfilled. If you are a member of <Cloud Nine> already, thank you for all you do.

*'''Officer Rank Test Revamp'''
 +
**As always, <Cloud Nine> will strive forward and improve it's processes daily to meet the ever-growing needs of our guild membership. When myself and Electricmessiah founded the guild, made it in the interest of creating a guild with process, organization and rules on which to run by. Electric wanted a high-end guild with Shadow runs/FSC runs 24/7 with the BEST of the BEST players. As I have come to realize, that is not possible. Spiral Knights is not your typical MMO. Soloing Vanaduke is VERY tough boss fight and it's unforgiving as well. One bad lag spike and you can be Mace-smashed into a falling ceiling with Shadowfire spawning on top of you. Since I have revamp the Rank Tests for Member and Veteran respectively, the number of attempts have increased significantly. I want to see the same with the Officer Rank Test. Our guild is strong with great membership and good people doing good things for the guild, I see it every day when I log in. We need new leaders to take care of our guild and guide our members. Yes, to some it may be "watering down" the test, but the focus is to make sure our Officer candidates have the adequate skill to complete Pre-Shadow Lair content and display their leadership potential. This revamp has been made in the best interest of the guild. So without further ado, here are the changes:
 +
 
 +
'''Officer Rank Test'''
 +
*Must be a guild Veteran.
 +
*7-Day guild membership waiting period minimum before attempting ''"Officer Rank Test"''.
 +
*Must be able to complete the following:
 +
**Any [[Firestorm Citadel]] room, at any time at the Officer/GM’s discretion. (Max. 8 rooms. Exception: d27's room - Last wave)
 +
**OR
 +
**Solo (3-man or greater) [[Lord Vanaduke]]
 +
**Officer candidate must LEAD GROUP successfully through [[Firestorm Citadel]] with minimal deaths.
 +
***No Pill Limit for the entire run.
 +
***No deaths (for Officer candidate) for the entire run.
 +
**Officer candidate will be graded upon demonstration of superior leadership, knowledge, and teamwork.
 +
*2 x Officers/GM are required to administrate the ''"Officer Rank Test"'' (the GM must be present).
 +
*Majority decision for promotion by current Officers/GMs. Votes must be in-person or mailed to current GM. In cases of tie, GM will cast tie-breaking vote.
