Though recent in formation and not as distinguished as other marque guilds of Spiral Knights, <Cloud Nine> retains a unique pedigree inherited through Ashiram, our Guild Master.
+
**Congratulations to the following:
  
−
===Act I: Inception Glory – Tales of Ashiram===
+
==''Now: About us''==
 +
'''<Cloud Nine>''' is a Premier, In Work Guild of Spiral Knights, founded on November 14, 2011 - our mission is to help all members achieve their goals, make ourselves better, and assist other guilds while still being Prominent in Lockdown, and Blast network.
  
−
In the beginning there was nothing but the endless void. On the fateful day of June 14, 2011, Ashiram was brought forth into the land of the Cradle. It was a time where wearing full Vog Cub Gear to be admired and price for 100 CE cost 3,000 crowns. Armed with his Proto gear, Ashiram struggled for several months scrapping just enough for his first 5-star weapon: Divine Avenger. Using Heavy Demo Gear as his default loadout, Ashiram toiled away painstakingly for weeks. A guild-less wanderer of humble origins, Ashiram happened upon a chance encounter that would forever alter his destiny...
+
We expect you all to be there for events and meetings, and help all members you can!
  
−
===Act II: Ascension Fire – Joining <Timeless>===
+
On behalf of all the members we have worldwide thank you for visiting us!
  
−
On that fateful FSC run in September 2011, Ashiram met with the GMs of <Timeless>, Sg-Hotsauce and Electricmessiah. Out of all the players Ashiram had met up to that time, these players were on a class of their own in terms of skill and knowledge of the game. Ashiram's Shivermist Buster quickly won him the friendship of Sg-Hotsauce and Electricmessiah. While Ashiram did not immediately join <Timeless> (for he did not see the need for a guild), after a succession of FSC runs with the duo, Ashiram joined <Timeless>. And so began the humble rise of Ashiram...
+
Cloud Nine means ''"bliss or a state of extreme happiness."''
  
−
===Act III: Critical Mass – The Rise of <Timeless>===
+
-Officers/Gm's
  
−
Ashiram upon joining <Timeless> improved his gear literally overnight through the countless FSC runs. Impressed by Ashiram's growth and potential, his rank fast-tracked its way to Officer. Upon becoming Officer, a new Triumvirate emerged – Ashiram, Sg-Hotsauce, and Electricmessiah as the true leaders of <Timeless>. With strong leaders at the helm, <Timeless> membership swells to maximum capacity. <Timeless> PvP players became feared in guild Lockdown. Our top PvE players regularly conquered Shadow Lair with no CE revives. This was truly a Golden Age for <Timeless>. For a time, it was good. But all good things in time...
 
  
−
===Act IV: Genesis Light – The Exodus of <Timeless>===
+
{{showhide|In Past: A Personal Message from the Guild Master|content=
  
−
To onlookers, <Timeless> achieved greatness and prestige of a top Spiral Knight guild. Internally, the guild was failing apart. The magnificence that was gained on behalf of <Timeless> came from Ashiram and only a handful of the dedicated guild members. The problems that plagued the guild from beginning of Ashiram's arrival were never mended. While Sg-Hotsauce and Electricmessiah were GMs, there were several GMs that out ranked them in terms in seniority. Normally this would not be a problem... unless they were regularly absent from the game, promoting their friends to Guild Master for no reason and generally being irresponsible altogether. On top of that, there were no rules/guidelines for behavior (several instances where members of Ashiram's own guild disrespected him, even as an Officer), no process on promotion/rank system (people were promoted out the blue, favoritism, etc.), recruiting strategy (there was none), guild events (again nothing), overall vision (take a guess). Ashiram and Electricmessiah decided to take matters into their own hands. And thus came to the decision to form a new guild...
+
There are literally hundreds of guilds in Spiral Knights. The choice for a new Spiral Knight guild can be overwhelming. Here at <Cloud Nine>, we do things a little differently. Whether it is the atmosphere or the unique organizational structure, you will instantly notice it from the moment you join the guild.
  
−
===Act V: New Hope – The Founding of <Cloud Nine>===
+
We pride ourselves in "kaizen" or 'continuous improvement' in the way we play the game. The effects of this enlightening process will shape you and may even improve yourself as a person in real life! Ultimately what you put into the effort is what you are going to get.

Like [http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Aleksandr_Kerensky Aleksandr Kerensky] who led the Exodus from the Inner Sphere, Ashiram led loyal followers to a new paradise christened <Cloud Nine>, founded on the hallowed date of November 14, 2011, exactly 5 months when Ashiram first entered the game. Seeking to purge the elements that corrupted <Timeless>, the new co-Guild Masters of <Cloud Nine> - Ashiram and Electricmessiah laid down the framework on which a new guild structure was formed. Over 50% of <Timeless> core members came with them, excited at the new possibilities and promise. It was a time of great celebration and the beginning of a new dawn of our guild... or was it?

On behalf of all our guild members worldwide, we thank you for taking the time to visit us.

===Act VI: Forged Sky – The Early Days of <Cloud Nine>===
+
'''http://cloud9sk.guildportal.com/'''
  
−
It seems that peace and prosperity was finally secured for our guild members. And for a time, all was well. However, the fledgling guild was still fragile and several ex-Timeless members quickly grew disgruntled at the new guild system and began seeking opportunities elsewhere. The greatest loss was the Co-Guild Master, Electricmessish who declared that <Cloud Nine> to be unworthy of his attention and abandoned the guild. New recruits were few and far between. Overall morale was weak. <Cloud Nine> could have ended then and there...

(Flaw need to give me his Message XD)
  
−
Legends speak little of the Knight who rescued <Cloud Nine>. But this much is known: Out of the chaos and despair, Ashiram the sole remaining Guild Master of <Cloud Nine> came forth. A visionary and leader, Ashiram decreed that <Cloud Nine> is worthy of its true heritage upon which it was founded upon and he promised to continue to stay true to that overall vision. To that end, Ashiram ushered a new era for <Cloud Nine>, quickly consolidated the guild structure with sweeping reforms and aggressively recruiting new members into the fold. In one months time, <Cloud Nine> had risen to top-tier guild status.

Hey Everyone, welcome to <Cloud Nine>. I am Recruiter Davan, welcome to our Great Guild. We are updating and upgrading atm, lots of work ahead of us. Flawedknight the Gm and I are trying our best to become better, and have more members in our midst. :D
  
−
Fellow Knights, I come to you in the wake of recent events to issue a call to reason. Let no Knight deny the perils of our time.
+
So welcome, enjoy your time with us, Wiki, and Gh are being updated "per diem"(Per day) and we want you to enjoy your stay with us!
−
[[Lockdown|While we battle one another]], divided by the petty strife of our common history, the [[Swarm|tide of a greater conflict is turning against us, threatening to destroy all that we have accomplished]]. It is time for us as guilds, and as individuals to set aside our longstanding feuds and unite.
+
  
−
The tides of an un-winnable war are upon us, and we must seek refuge upon higher ground, lest we be swept away by the flood.
+
If we can do anything to assist you, ask. We have a bank for crafting assisting and friendly members, plus the Officers are awesome. :P
−
The [[Skylark]] is no more. Whatever semblance of unity and protection it once provided is a phantom. A memory. With our enemies left unchecked, who will you turn to for protection?
+
  
−
The devastation wrought by the alien monsters is self-evident. We have seen our homes and communities destroyed by the calculated blows of the [[Gremlins]]. We have seen firsthand our friends and loved ones consumed by the nightmarish [[Undead]]. Unprecedented, and unimaginable though they may be, these are the signs of our times.
+
Welcome to <Cloud Nine>.
  
−
[http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Cloud_Nine_(Guild)#Recruitment The time has come my fellow Knights, to rally to a new banner]. In unity lies strength. Already many of the dissident factions have joined us.

Out of the many we shall forge an indivisible whole, capitulating ONLY to a single THRONE. And from that throne... I shall watch over you.

From this day forward, let no Knight make war upon any other Knight. Let no Spiral agency conspire against this new beginning. And let no Knight consort with alien monsters. [[Monster|And to all the enemies of Spiral Knights]], seek not to bar our way. For we shall win through, NO MATTER THE COST!

*'''Officer Rank Test Revamp II'''
 
**In consultation with my loyal Officers and due to the recent bug-fixes and buffs to the game, I have decided to make several amendments to the ''Officer Rank Test''. In preparation for new content, we need strong Officers to lead our guild to the future. As such, an Officer of <Cloud Nine> must be a true master of Tier 3, and set an example to those who he or she means to lead. Fine tuning of the Officer Rank Test revamp II will began shortly. As of now, please see below for changes:

**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"''.

−
**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.

**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:
