Development Dispatch: Issue # 45 May 11 - July 3
Happy Independence Day
For us American's, today is a very special day. Today is the day we declared our independence from England. This issue of the Development Dispatch will use themes commemorating this very special day. We would also like to thank all of our veterans and current members of the armed forces for allowing us to be here today, thank you.
New Dispatch Staff
The Journalist Department and the Development Department have made the decision to move the Development Dispatch from the hands of the CJD to Development. Both departments thought that this will be easier and the rest of the members can get information of higher quality from a Developer's standpoint. The new team consist of :WNxCENA611, WNxHellsight, WNxDynex,and WNxFrozenPast.
Due to the amount of time since the last release, we will be giving information on the recent and major events since the last Dispatch.
Goodbye
The past few weeks have been very rough on the Department. We have lost some very great Developers that have put countless hours of hard work in the department:
WNxHelios resigned as an Engineer of Development. He will be missed dearly in the barracks, but he has taught the rest of us many things that we can use for the better of the Department.
Along with Helios, we lost our Brigadier General WNxvor928. If some of you don't know Vor, he is one of the most hard working members of the clan and the department. He has done so much for Development and has been a big part of making it what it is today. He will be dearly missed in the barracks. Before his resignation, vor left us with some of the best advice than many people in Warrior Nation need to read and take to heart :
Quote:
Never do anything just for the tag
New Members
Since the last dispatch, we have got a few new members in Development.
Please welcome :
WNx2Sleepy
WNxPsyrick
WNxRUIN
All three of them will be part of the PC Development Team.
In addition to the three above, we have also gained another very special member. This does not happen often, but we decided to take in a Battle Operations Commissioner into our ranks. The new Engineer will begin to train a competitive gaming Captain and work with sections in development strictly on competitive gaming. Each section has it's choice whether to attempt a competitive gaming team. Please congratulate the new member of the Development team :
WNxLord
Our Apologies
On behalf of the Development Dispatch team, I apologize for the late reports. We had some trouble here and there with the dispatch, but we finally got on with it. And we would assure you, next week's dispatch will be of much better quality.
Now, time for the good stuff, the section reports written by the team.

Combat Journalist's Newsroom Outtakes #11 - June 2009 |
Letter From the Writer:
Hey guys, this month has been a slow month since a lot of people have exams on the go! But as it's my job to entertain the wonderful nation I will try make this as exciting as it can be! So stick with me, grab a chocolate bar and enjoy!
The monthly award
Ace Award
Awarded to CJs that perform their job far above average. Writing excellent reports, interviews,
creative pieces or game guides such as the work on histories or reviews can be issue reasons. Helping and improving
other members' work is also specially recognized by this award.
WNx Silly PunkD - Halo PC and Historian
Silly Punkd has been an amazing member of the CJD, especially recently in his roles with the histories. Since becoming an historian in early May, Silly has worked tirelessly to update his set of 5 histories. Many were out-of-date, in the wrong order, or in the wrong format. Silly solved this quickly and diligently, without making any fuss. In addition to this, he asked to take on another set of histories meaning he had ten histories to look after, which is quite a workload. He also checked over sections that didn't have a historian and his work has always been impeccable. His communication between the scholars and historians has also been top notch. He's also the Halo AU/EU journalist, and has worked hard for something that can be often unforgiving and thankless. His quality of work is shown by how he was approached to report on Halo (PC) as a whole. Congrats Silly. (~WNxHorizon)
WNxCJL9788 - Historian
CJL is an asset the the historian department, as well as the CJD as a whole. He has tirelessly updated and kept up with everything going on in all of his sections he is historian for. Even with his promotion and the added responsibility of managing an entire SF crew, as well as the biggest genre represented in WN in FPS, he has still managed to keep up with all of his historian duties without skipping a beat. CJL is a member all present and future CJD representatives should look up to, and that is exactly what this award means. Well done CJL...well done. (~WNxJokazWild)
Looking back
This all leaves us with one more reward to be given out by the CJD. So without further ado, please congratulate...
Interview of The Month!
WNxEekuinn27
Eekuinn only got promoted a week or two a go and she already hit the high standards of interviews. She interviewed WNxFireDrake and it turned out so well that she got voted the IoTM for June! Well done Eekuinn you deserved it. Wear the Ava with proud. (Props to Cookie for the Ava)
Fresh meat!
Well as it's been a slow month there has been a little joining but please all put your hands together for the wonderful new entries to the CJD palace!
WNxKastielle - Battlefield Heroes
WNxDecepticon - Call of Duty 4 (Xbox 360)

Farewell to the NRO's
After the successful merge with the CJD and the Creative Lab this may be the last NRO issue as there might be something new happening to the NRO... There has been no hints to as what will happen but I think it will all be for the greater good! We shall see what the future brings us but until then sit tight and enjoy the last issue!
Interview Crew Needs You!
We in the Interview Crew need new interviewers and as a thread wasn't good enough I interviewed Fatal a former Interviewer on his views of the crew.. So enjoy the read and please apply! Info for applying can be found here.
Hey Nation, this isn't like one of those normal Interviews that you would see.. This is me and a good leprechaun friend who were both in the Interview Crew until he got swamped with a promotion and decided to resign... So today I bring to you, WNxFatality... Or as I like to call him, leprechaun buddy!
WNxToxicTin: Hello Fatal, hows it going in the leprechaun land? 
WNxFatality: It's going great, the bastard tried tricking me with the old gold trick but some slight jaw rearranging and slight loss of facial hair and he's gone to the neighbours house instead.
WNxFatality: So as a whole, yeh I'm doing pretty good. Finished the most stressful school period ever with the 20 or so GCSE exams I have just been through, so to have an early summer vacation and no school for the next 2 months, it's quite the opposite to stress .
WNxToxicTin: Yeah had some guy dressing in pointy shoes and a green hat trying to take my gold.. I told him to f*ck off and he kicked me! You know how sore it is to be kicked with pointy shoes! Cool I just finished my GCSE's too! We are free w00p! Want to tell us about your history in WN?
WNxFatality: Well the old pointy shoes thing, surely you must be used to that after all the girls you piss off on a daily basis . As for my history, I could make a book, not a very big book, I guess more of a leaf...oh forget it, I'll stop with the cliches already. Well the ranks I have held are in my signature, but you could say I like variety either that or I get kicked out of every job I do and come back to another department. I've been in nearly every rank of WN, other than the JAs, the Special forces admin group, the historians, development, MP department, GAT, Radio DJ...oh wait... Take those away from all the non admin jobs and you could my past all wrapped up . FO, BO, Major, VAT, CJ, ECJ, Sgt Major to be precise!
WNxToxicTin: Ahah... and as the Interview editor I know you had a go in there.. Would you tell me how wonderful it is? It would really make me happy! Because I know you so well your going to say it's bad but go ahead anyway!
WNxFatality: No actually, your wrong!
WNxFatality: It's a great department, when you admire it from the outside and don't enter it.
WNxToxicTin: Hah! My plan worked!
WNxFatality: Lol how? xD
WNxToxicTin: This was a diversion... I really am in your house spying on you watching those Asian women doing... Oooooh. *Grabs a seat* Anyway, tell those who are wanting to join the Interview Crew how easy and fun it is! *Points knife*
WNxFatality: Asian? Oh yeah, was watching the indoor ping-pong championships ofc, good to see you enjoy the sport. Well the interview crew, not much like it really, I mean it is a simple job to grasp, takes a little longer to master, but the learning process sure is fun and you get to interview some really awesome people as is demonstrated by what you reading xD.
WNxToxicTin: It took you half an hour to type that?!?! Anyway, yes guys it's true! The Interview Crew is fun but we need you to be there to have fun with us! We need a few more Interviewers so come on and apply! So fatal... what will you so now that school is over and you left the Interview Crew.. I am sure you will be bored?!?
WNxFatality: Well I'm sorry, I have a lot of things to do tonight and talking to you as at the bottom, oh wait, it is so "at the bottom" it isn't even on the to do list, but that knife, it looks sharp :O. As for being bored, for some reason this interview comes to mind, I really can't think why . j/ks. Well I was recently promoted to FO of the cod 4 section and that is taking up a large proportion of my time, and I've also started playing many new games so I guess that will put the time away, that and having a life with a summer job and a holiday, but that stuff is like soooo overrated.
WNxToxicTin: Hehe, well keep yourself entertained dude! Now normally we would play a game but we play too many games together so you can get lost now! *Jabs knife into Fatal* Which reminds me.. when you coming out next? We got to party! w00p.
WNxFatality: Heheh, well the summer feeling is sure getting to me with this sudden spot of good weather we have been having recently, a party sounds like a good idea . Well, to everyone reading make sure to enjoy the summer vacation while it lasts because it sure does go by quickly .
WNxToxicTin: Ahh yes, everyone enjoy your summers! Party, and get drunk! But stay safe guys! Any shout-outs Fatal baby?
WNxFatality: AHHHHHHHH!!!! HELPPPP!!!! ANYBODY??? This guys got a knife on my neck! How was that? Nah Too many people and I'm tired which means my memory is going to be pretty sucky, the most important know who they are.
WNxToxicTin: Asta-la-bye-bye baby! Enjoy your time in WN dude and take it easy. *Removes knife, picks a beer and cheers!*
The End!
Tag changes!
Well since the combined departments happened ZH then realised that he is the BG of Creative Works and therefore he wanted all three of his Colonels to be Colonels of Creative Lab. So there it is then, they got their new tags and if you ask me they look smexy!
Heeeeee's Baaack!
Yes the nub we all love has returned home! A week a go he got offered the open Col. position and he took it and now he is back! He already has worn down his badge and slapped some ass in the CJD. I would say a great promotion for a great guy and it is good to see you back on top form Nub.. I have a feeling the CJD will be back on top form very soon. =]
They stole them!
Yes it is true! Dev. have stolen the Reviews and Previews. Well in all seriousness I think it was a good idea. Dev. are there to get a section populated and as people in Dev. run the sections who would be a better person than them to write about it. It is one other way of getting in recruits so I think it will work well and good luck Dev. with the P/Reviews!
This Month's Interviews:
Have still been going mad but with exams they are starting to drop the numbers! Although there still are some great Interviews being done! The team have been doing a great job!

New Echo FPS Colonel |

New Echo FPS Colonel |
As FPS is a larger genre than the others, one slot from RTS is moving over to FPS, so the number of admins stay the same, just being rearranged.
CJ walked back into his office after his trip around Europe, scouring for new recruits. Germany, Italy, Sweden, Britain…he’d looked all over. Plenty of budding candidates, but he was looking for the one. He expected to see his Colonels busy at work, but his eyes first met the figure of a slumped soldier on his desk. Sco just couldn’t handle his drink. Shaking his head, opposite he saw the usual figure of Battle playing Combat Arms. CJ cleared his throat, but there was no disturbing Battle when he was ingame…
In the next room, there were the familiar voices of Jokaz and Raider arguing over which was better, PS3 or 360. Typical. Rolling his eyes, he walked up behind them and gave them an almighty slap behind the head. They jumped up, startled, and turned and faced him.
“Sir, morning sir!”
“At ease guys. What do you have to report on the Colonel search?”
Jokaz grabbed some files from the desk and shuffled through them.
“Well we travelled everywhere, we looked really hard…there were a few possible candidates”
“We went to Corsica!” Raider chimed in.
“Corsica?”
“Yeh, we went to the beach, saw that singer Alizée perform, had some wine…”
The stern glare that met the comment was enough to stop Raider from speaking, and stand behind Jokaz and his files. Jokaz shuffled some more before sighing, and pointed at Sco.
“He found one that might be worth it…”
He passed a wooden clipboard over to him. CJ took it, nodded, and turned to face Sco…before hurling it at the sleeping soldier. He lept up and squealed, making the other 3 laugh out loud. Even CJ smiled as he walked over to him.
“This guy – is he Echo Force material?” he said, pointing to his notes.
“Yes sir, I think he is. He’s a born leader, smart, dedicated…I think he’d fit right in.”
CJ studied the clipboard some more, this time more carefully.
“There is…one problem, sir”
“And what might that be?”
“He’s…French”
“Well, we can’t all be perfect can we?”
Please congratulate the new Echo Force admin:
WNxBadPlayer
Congratulations and good luck, I look forward to seeing you in the Pent. |
