[-The Urban Courier-] Edition VIII March 16th-17th, 2013 Editor-in-Chief: michaek Editor(s): djdude12345678
We will post this early, but it's still a St. Patrick's day special. Roll with it.
Happy St. Patrick's day! Includes: Announcements*, Interviews, Poetry Contest, Music Video contest, Riddle Answer, Colonel feedback section*, Lucky Interviewee Contest *Important.
[-Editor-in-Chief’s Note-] Given that the war with the Allied Robloxian Troops [ART] began a few days ago, Ignitos will not be working on the Urban Courier during the war duration (March 15th - April 12). As the war general, he’s busy during such times. I will be running the Courier in his absence, acting in his place. Regular installments of the Urban Courier every Sunday will still be made.
[-ANNOUNCEMENT: War with ART-] By michaek
Link: http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=91883837 Victory Set: http://www.roblox.com/My/Sets.aspx?id=985536 As I previously mentioned, the war with ART began a couple of days ago. As of Mar. 16th, 5:45 PM EST, the war statistics are currently 5 UAF - 0 ART. In order to bring you war coverage every week, we will consistently keep you updated on the war stats each Sunday. The details of the war are provided in the link, but here are some general notes: 1) It started March 15th and will end April 12th. 2) The victor will be determined based on whoever has the most documented raid wins by the end of the war. 3) Defense wins do not count towards the score. Only raid wins against the enemy base count. 4) The ultimate goal of this war is to increase activity and ability. So far, it has worked. 5) The terms are approved of by both sides. They are to be followed throughout the war.
[-ANNOUNCEMENT: The Edict of the Soldier-] By michaek
Link: http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=91572847 UAF 2iC Falsewarrior000 has announced that as of March 11th 2013, Privates and Corporals may only be promoted through regular participation in daily OFFICIAL patrols (with the presence of a high rank). The extent to which the Privates or Corporals have to patrol is presumably left up to the high rank(s) in charge. The reason, along with the assurance of protection in wartime, is to "promote baseline activity for the People of UAF" says False.
[-Comrade Q&A!-] By djdude12345678 and michaek
First, we have UAF War General Ignitos! [UAFPROF] Michaek: Hello War General Ignitos. Thank you for taking some time out of your busy schedule to talk to us. [UAFPROF] Michaek: I would like to ask you a few questions. First things first - do you feel confident in our ability to win this war? [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Yes. [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: We've already won 5 times so far. [UAFPROF] Michaek: Hm. Why do you feel we are so successful as of late as far as war is concerned? [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: We've successfully learned to be skilled in swords and guns, since the NFC war, and improved in tactics. [UAFPROF] Michaek: As a War General, what kind of duties do you have? [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Deciding our next enemies, leading raids, giving tactical advice to the other HRs. [UAFPROF] Michaek: In the war terms, it was decided that ART can use allies in raids but UAF can not. Do you think that this will impact the war negatively? [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: It impacts the war positively. [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Their allies increased our combat skills and activity. [UAFPROF] Michaek: Last question. What advice would you give to the soldiers of UAF to win this war? [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Raid when even if no HR shouted one, and use team work a lot. [UAFPROF] Michaek: Thank you for your time.
Now, we have UAF Colonel and Head of Grey Knights Plowing! [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: When did you join UAF? [UAFCOL] driving llama: Sometime in 2010, on stealthdestroyer100. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Infinitive's era. [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: So, your a Veteran like me, correct? [UAFCOL] driving llama: Indeed. [UAFCOL] driving llama: I was kind of bored with clans. [UAFCOL] driving llama: My good friend stealthdragon96 showed me. [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: What was it like starting out in a new clan that you would eventually become a Colonel in? [UAFCOL] driving llama: It was fun, and interesting. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Going up the ranks, attending raids, defending. [UAFCOL] driving llama: A great experience. [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: What was the greatest moment in your UAF Career? [UAFCOL] driving llama: The first time I became a HR [UAFCOL] driving llama: The first time I took it serious. [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: What is it like leading the group of UAF's best Sword Fighters? [UAFCOL] driving llama: It's an honor to lead UAF Grey Knights. [UAFCOL] driving llama: I'm proud of them. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Always do your best, stand out in raids, defends, or trainings. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Make it to try-outs, see to be tested. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Leading GK. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Making the rules. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Finding the best sf'ers in UAF. [UAFCOL] driving llama: Even now it's the hardest time, since we lost members along the way that we gained some. [UAFCOL] driving llama: But it's not easy leading GK. [UAFPRO/JUSTASSIT] Djdude: I think that concludes our interview, thank you for your time.

[-Riddle of the Week-] By michaek
This week we will not have a riddle - we already have two other contests. However, we will disclose the answer to last week's riddle - NOBODY got it right!
I am the center of the heart. Some people may think I’m cruel, but I’m not. I do not think, and yet I am. I simply start first with anguish and second with pain. I am... The letter "a"!
Explanation: Think about it - "a" is the middle letter in "heart"; it's not in "cruel" (but it can be misspelled with an a); it is not in "think", but it is in "am" (and a letter can't think, but it still is); and finally, it's the first letter in "anguish" and the second letter in "pain"!
[-Ask the People!-] By michaek
It is time again that we ask you, the people, what you think of the higher ranks. Last time, we asked you for your opinions on the Generals of UAF. Now, we ask you to give feedback on our current Colonels! Don't be afraid to give constructive criticism. In a sentence or two, explain your opinion on each:
plowing- AK47pwned3- Sk8TheAce- rodgerdodger- MouldyNukeBombAbs- Omnovia- ZbadboyZ- Corporation0fX- HatianDragon6400- max538- Olympian3D- Masterlock- lionblaze1212-
[-Get Lucky!-] By michaek
Required: Have an XF account. In honor of St. Patrick's day, we'll do a little event. I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 1000. Whoever gets closest to my number will earn themselves an interview next edition! Post your numbers in your forum replies (if there is a tie, we will do a coin flip/dice roll to determine the lucky one). XF is needed for the interview.
[-Ending Note-] By djdude12345678 and michaek
Comrades, it is during times of war that we must be strong for the sake of our wonderful Motherland. We must try our hardest, even if it looks impossible to win. Pro Patria!
Show your support for the motherland. Somewhere in your post, say "Pro Patria!" to help get everyone's spirits up. Push forward, with confidence!
A special thanks goes out to Plowing and Ignitos for taking time out of their day and letting us interview them.
If your a fan of the Urban Courier, join the Urban Courier group to get the latest editions and updates! Link: http://www.roblox.com/My/Groups.aspx?gid=738737
Have a nice St. Patrick's Day everyone, and don't forget to wear green! |

-POEM-: I am so skilled; That I make you shriek in fear; Bang! Boom! Killed; Now, time to change my gears.
You may retreat; You may eat some rotten meat; And you can wear any kind of cleats; But, I am the one and only; The one's so skilled; You so lonely? Bang! Boom! Not anymore. KILLED! (made this up right on the spot, tried my best :]) -J5132- |

MouldyNukeBombAbs- Hosts very effective trainings, and is considerably active.
ZbadboyZ- Very kind and active. Occasionally abusive with his admin. (Might be confusing that detail with CorporationOfX.)

The battlefield I enter, without a clue. I'm eager to fight, Win it or lose. I rush right in, Ready for war. If I sprint away healthy, Or lag away sore.
Shot in the leg; Stabbed in the arm. The city is gone, I hear the alarm. Then slowly I see A guy, in his hand, was a flag that said "For the Motherland"
For all of these reasons, and these reasons alone. I slowly limp away. Back to my home. The fight was epic. We proved the best. And all of my proof is some scars and a vest.
That's my poem; I hoped you enjoyed it!
