Clan Council : Newsletter 21
Posted by Hemi on 2010/8/1 14:20:00 (4974 reads)

Hello Wolves,

Its member of the month time!!!
This Month (august) :
Yes our dear friend Dazoo. He has had some hard times these last few months, and he deserves a tap on the back for beeing such a good sport in-game. Anyone who has played with this guy either laughs at his sometimes n00bish gameplay, or gets unexpectedly asskicked by Dazoo chasing you with his electro bold stick thingy in HL2. He's been a bit busy lately, setting up his own trance label were I also have designed some stuff for. Anyone who's interested in some great trance-tunes : Airspace Myspace
So its hats of to you sir this month. Your endless positivity is an inspiration to all the members, and you deserve all the succes in the world m8. Good luck!

Hello Wolves,


well well...its been a weird couple of weeks. So here goes.
1. Game Additions
Aliens versus Predator is the main game of this clan. But...untill we recieve some nice DLC, we got to keep ourselves busy no do we? So....what is the criterium for a WPC game. Its actually simple :
1 :: It has 6 or more active players within the WPC Community.
2 :: It supports dedicated servers.
3 :: It has a theme that can relate to the WPC. (sience fiction / fiction / horror etc)
So what is the first addition? ---- HALF LIFE 2 Deathmatch
As you can see we've added icons in the header, sothat people will know what we "serve"/play hehe.
Are we going to do matches with Half Life? Who knows...if it comes our way, im all for it.
2. New Webmaster
Snooze has been promoted to web-master. She will moderate the forums and spank anyone who miss-behaves.
3. New Member
Welcome LadyBuzz!!! The name says it all, Buzz has now got his entire family on AVP/HL2 lol. Good job!
Thats it for this week. Stay Frosty people and remember...their is always a wolf in the woods!

Clan Council : Weekly Newsletter [13]
Posted by Solo on 2010/5/30 9:55:18 (3620 reads)
Clan Council

Hello Wolves,

It's a long time since we hadn't got our weekly newsletter. I'm totally sorry about that. The website breakdown and time travel caused many troubles in our organisation.

After 2 weeks now that the site is back, we will have to live with this time gap, and carry on with our story. Well, I suppose this is not such a big deal as in the WPC story, the websie has known many and many "rebirth". So, many thanks for your patience.

Anyway, this finally gives us some break to think about our futur. And that's what I did. First of all, I have noticed a critical drop down of the AvP game activities. Each and every time I log on the server screen, I see a very short list of active game servers. All in all, I would be able to count the actives servers on my fingers. A consequence of this is that our own activity is dropping down too. Not much more serious applications, and generally speaking the game interest is slowly but surely passing by...

What does this mean for us? It's again time for a change, a switch and an adaptation. Many of us do not want to quit the game, which we all know, is part of our history, and our current reactivation. Though, we still need to discover other "online" and "virtual" horizons. We need to find another game where we could carry on with our expansion.

But we need to be organised. So I suggest the following steps:

1. Define game criterias.

- online and/or solo game,
- game type (fps or not),
- game background (sci-fi, history, present, etc.),
- dedicated game servers,
- plateforms (pc, WII, console),
- 1 or more games,
- should this game be already available or not
etc.

Please post here what would be in your opinion, the choice criterias...

2. Check for a game that would fit our criterias ;

3. proceed to a vote.

This is now our priority.

And remember, a patient hunter always gets his reward...

Clan Council : Weekly Newsletter [11]
Posted by Solo on 2010/5/16 19:50:00 (3339 reads)

Hello wolves,


This will be a very short newsletter this week, as the community has know a very awkward event with our lair being down for almost the whole week. And now that it is up again, we seems to have made a jum back in time.

For those who want an explanation, here it is.

In april, our host (the company who manage the website files) has migrated his servers. At that time we didn't noticed it, for a very good reason: our domain name (www.wolfpackclan.com) was still pointing to the old servers!!!

How come?

The host and the registrar (company who manage the domain name), for historical reasons (remember the website is now in his 8th year of existence), are not the same company! Thus, none were coordinating their informations. So when our host closed his old servers (this week), the website was unavailable. But now our domain name is pointing to the right server, but of course, we have the one month old version of the website.

So anyway, I have asked our host to restore our most recent database and hopefully everything should be ok in the next few days.

Also, if some of our most recent members can't login anymore, it's probably because your account do not existe anymore (back in time effect)...

Ah well, at least we all got a break, for some days.

And remember, there is always a wolf in the woods (at least, when there is a wood - lol)

Let's welcome 3 new members to the pack:

Welcome to the pack guys, and enjoy your stay amongst us.

Also [WPC] Zeek is now taking charge officially of Battle leader and is currently trying to arrange a PS3 battle. So PS3 members get in touch with him!

3) Game servers

Our game servers are very popular at the moment. So we suggest you regularly visit them and put our clan banner up! Again many thanks to Buzz and B-2 for all their efforts in keeping them up and enhancing our gaming experience.

Also, if any members is willing to have other games server, get in touch with them so they could arrange something.


4) Hemi Flash game project

Hemi has started a flash game project based on the AvP universe. You can follow his work ont http://www.mostimpressive.nl or on our own forums.

Also he has announced his project on AvP Galaxy. So please post your suggestions and support everywhere it is possible.

Also we have implemented "Avatar updates" from now on. [WPC] Zeeky allready had his first update and he's getting another today. Congrats m8, you've earned it.

Clan Council : [April Fools Joke] Wolf Pack Clan changes today!
Posted by Solo on 2010/4/1 8:40:00 (4097 reads)

[April Fools Joke]

Ah ah, of course this was the april fool joke.

Quote:

Hello wolves,

Since the AvP 2010 release, the clan has been back on tracks. And it's growing nicely.

Although, with time and though, I think we still need some changes. So open your eyes, this is very important:

1. Remove the Long Fangs system

Since Blaze departure, the Long Fangs councile is no more effective. Every week I post a topic in the private forum, and I hardly get replies and proposition from your elected representatives. I even have to decide on myself who can get in, and who can not. Don't get fooled wolves, when you see a different name for the sunday newsletter, it's me and only me each and every time.

Thus, I took the decision, as your clan founder and leader to take over all the decisional process. So, if you want something ask me. And me only.


2. Change website system

After many complains from users and members about this website functionalities and design (mainly due to the incapacity from our designer to do a proper job here), I have decided to switch from Xoops to wordpress. Amongst the change, I'll remove the forums. Seeing how stupide our discussions are, I don't see the point maintaining the forums discussion. I'll just keep the chat box or eventually make it mandatory to have msn.


3. Game change

Due to a large majority of our members to complain about the AvP 2010 game, I have decided we switch to another game. This game will be R.U.S.E.. Some of you may have noticed I was frequently using the Beta version available on Steam. This is really a great game I would like you to download right now (and eventually buy in the next few weeks).

In the same spirit, I would like all our stories howlers to change their stories to include this new background aspects. Aliens can easily be replaced by the axis forces.

I have asked Buzz and B-2 to stop the AvP servers and switch them to R.U.S.E games.

An finally, I have asked Hemi to find some new smilies more related to our new activities.


4. New member ranking system

As per request from many of you, I will install a new member ranking system: something close to the military one. You would get your rank from your game results. There is a powerful board result system in R.U.S.E and we will use it.

Of course, I'll start with the rank of General as it is obvious I'm the clan leader, whatever my game stats could be.

That's all for now, but I'll take time to think about some more changes.

The WPC deserve something better we have here now. You can post your approval here.

You clan leader,



[WPC] General Solo

PS: I'm also thinking about changing the clan name... Dunno yet... Any suggestion?

Remember all the council members are your reprentatives. That is, if you have any issues, suggestions or misundertood, please, feel free to get in touch with them through the forums, chat box or PM to submit your concerns.
