As many of you have no doubt noticed, I've made a rather major return. I've now heard from several people concerning DN's war system, as well as KCTAU, and would like to ask the opinion of those members here. TamA has expressively told me that he believes KCTAU is done with, but if the members of the various groups ask me to do so, I am willing to work with others to help bring it back. As such, I've outlined a few things that I will be putting into effect. Please give me your responses, as I've posted this on several academies and will be looking at it from both a team's perspective as well as an academy's.

My Short-Term Objectives:

1. Bring Organization back to KCTAU: As it stands right now KCTAU appears to be rather unorganized. I'll be relooking everything over and giving tasks out in a much more specialized manner.
   
2. Bring Academy and Team activity back: I'd like the leaders of the various academies and teams to please contact me to see if there's any way that we can organize to help KCTAU work better for you. Please do so at your earliest convenience with any possible suggestions.
   
3. Set-up formal systems: I'd planned on doing this before, but Mello threw it out opting instead to make a topic thread. Originally there was an account that handled posting for war requests, as it sent e-mails to all judges/admins and allowed the system to become more streamlined. I'd like for this to be brought back and formally organized to once again stream line the forum.
   
4. Rules will be looked at once more, and I'll speak with the various groups about how to enforce them between academies, teams and KCTAU to see if we can come up with a much more universal system.
   
5. Listen to suggestions from members about the system.
   

Long-term goals:

1. Streamlining the ranking system: If at all possible I'd like to stream line this system and come up with something much more formal to deal with the season. If I need to, I'm willing to purchase webspace to use as an FTP base so that I can use a much more streamlined system to manage the ranks. Essentially my goal would be that when a judge closes a war, they choose a winner and the points are automatically added to the winner, allowing for an automatic update of ranks. That will keep a much more live feed when it comes to the rank system.
   
2. Determine what else can be made to improve our site: whether that be organizing more tournaments or setting up a formal site, with domain name and everything, is basically at the decision of the members. I'm perfectly willing to set up a formal website and forum if that's what you guys want. Right now, I'm leaving this discussion of the hands of you, the reader.
   

Thank you,
Kaizen, Head of KCTAU

P.S. Apologize to the admins for posting here...but it seemed the most appropriate position to post

... what kctau?

Do you have an administrator permisson to advertise here ?

Its okay Anzo, its an important topic overall for teams and academies

As Amy stated, it's of a fair amount of importance overall, but Jin said I could post, and that he didn't think admins would give me trouble (but that it was a possibility).

I approve this message 8D.
Well, tama told you KCTAU is done with probably because he's the head admin of DN. And obv he wants DN's war section to be more popular. What is actually happening is that DN teams are migrating to KCTAU because there's a team ranking and because veteran teams are there.
KCTAU is rather organized right now, it could be better tho.

i think the KCTAU teams are doing okay, yea ofcourse the activity is not the same as before. But Teams were active because they wanted to be active. you just cant forcefully create the same excitement that was before.

lots of attempts have been made and are fairly successful:
YCS
Ranking System
Team war tournament

these haven't boosted the activity by alot but have made it stable. we just have to wait and see if it reaches back to the original level. In my opinion its fine, u cant force these kinda things by an overhaul.

Staff's currently being discussed. I'll keep all academies updated on progress.

I think you should post this at KCTAU as well.
