News Director Title: Tournament Reporter Job Description: A tournament regular who has been involved in either organising or playing in a tournament. Who doesn't restate what the Tournament Newsletter already covers, but rather provides a different experience. Perhaps by spotlighting a tournament and doing a profile on a particularly well run tournament. As well as reporting on any new features and/or announcements that come from the tournament forum.Tournament Reporter
Title: Co-Directors Job Description: As the newsletter grows, so does the need for directors. These people will be responsible for running the newsletter with the current News Director, which will include a rotating roster for publishing each issue of the newsletter. Organising competitions and generally helping with the process of the newsletter, they may also be responsible for conducting interviews. So if you like being part of a team and have good leadership skills, then this is the position for you. Bear in mind that applicants for this position will be carefully picked, more so than other positions. Depending on the applicants 1 or 2 director's will be brought onboard.Co-Directors

Hello Conquerors!News World Cities Announcement sully800 , longtime CC member and beloved mod, has worked to create World Cities, a new map of the world's cities (who woulda thunk it?) with the same exact gameplay as our beloved Classic. The continents have been switched around and it looks like a physical map of the world, but in its essence it is the same as the map that was rid of Oct. 14, 2008.Pearl Harbor Adjustment Mapping Development Summary Main Foundry Final Forge Antarctica e_i_pi WWII: Poland samuelc812 England MrBenn Merciless Wong and his grudge against MrB.Feudal Epic gimil & the.killing.44 Gulfe du St.Laurent Unit_2 Das Schloß cairnswk Beta & Quenched [Beta] [Quenched]
show: Interview with t-o-m
Q: Hi there t-o-m http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/3310/testoh.gif Please answer "yes" or "no" only: Would you like a chicken nugget(or soy faux-nugget, if you are vegan or vegetarian)? first rule of the website pay to become a member again, whereas they have the "can't be bothered" attitude on the subject of reviewing bans. I don't care about the forums any more, and PMs would be mostly worthless now - about 75% of the people who I used to talk to have left the site.I think the management needs to review their rule enforcement. Other websites, that are popular, are nowhere near as stern with their members. The management makes up excuses saying that things would take up too much time, would lead to abuse, would do this, do that, but if they don't give people the responsibility not to do a certain thing, then how could you even comprehend that?As I've said, other forums use less moderation to retain the peace. But I don't think that's CC's issue. The issue is that they try to enforce ridiculous amounts of rules, and abuse them in any way possible. I'm sure that if they were more relaxed and lenient, they'd have a substantial amount less issues. Another issue they have to deal with his the trigger happy mods. I don't need to expand on that.I'd love to know what Andy and the other mods actually do for the site on a day-to-day basis. Given that they have no time to do something good and requested by the community, and the fact that we don't see them do much else than ban people, it'd be extremely interesting to see what else they endeavour.P.S. Not that I do or do not support banned members receiving PMs, I still think that each argument should be supported fairly. I saw this post of lackattack's link here where he blatantly lies saying that it's not possible. I don't think it's fair of lackattack, the person who we should respect the most on the website, to fob us off on such a cheap lie. They made changes to how people are 'banned' on the forum and lackattack knows jolly well that it is possible; they shouldn't be telling fibs, even if they're struggling to think of reasons to support their views.I don't mean for this to reflect on my opinion of lack; however it needed to be said (given that it's now locked and no one can reply).
