<p>
	Hello everyone. You may have noticed that we have a new role on the forums called Event Coordinators. This role was inspired by GCC and their approach towards event management. Currently there are four members of <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> who have been doing amazing work within GCC and pushing them forward with every event they produce. These members are <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/1535-runda/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="1535" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/1535-runda/" rel="">@<span style="color:#1ee9e3;">Runda</span></a> <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/636-pyros/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="636" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/636-pyros/" rel="">@<span style="color:#ffff00;">Pyros</span></a> <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/5288-syntax/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="5288" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/5288-syntax/" rel="">@<span style="color:#ffff00;">Syntax</span></a> and <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/6359-kubnair/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="6359" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/6359-kubnair/" rel="">@<span style="color:#ffff00;">Kubnair</span></a>. The sheer amount of effort each one of them has put into their work within GCC is phenomenal!
</p>

<p>
	That is why these members will be the first four to start up our Event Coordinator team!
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Now for some details about this team and what they can do within there new role.
</p>

<ul>
<li>
		My aim for the team is for one <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> event a month, starting with a Christmas themed event which they are starting to work on now.
	</li>
	<li>
		They will continue to work within GCC to provide events. However they can now request usage of <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>'s servers and any other reasonable resource for use within GCC and for <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> events.
	</li>
	<li>
		They will be able to use the Creative team to create GFX for events and for recording/streaming and tweeting the events. 
	</li>
	<li>
		They have access to request the Developer team to edit plugins for usage within events.
	</li>
	<li>
		They are able to work with our Server Managers to be able to create events on our current servers.
	</li>
	<li>
		They have been given permissions to directly post and feature posts within the events sub-forum.
	</li>
	<li>
		Lastly they have been given TeamSpeak permissions to edit and use the Event channel, in order to support using TeamSpeak during events.
	</li>
</ul>
<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Now I would like to mention that working within GCC is not required by the role, however the team does need to be involved in the events from GCC. 
</p>

<p>
	There will be opportunities for members to apply and help out the Event Coordinators but that will currently be handled through PMs instead of an application form.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	This new role is something that will give us all something to look forward to and will help provide <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> with some regular, quality events. I have a lot of belief in the current members of the team and look forward to their upcoming work within <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr>!

	Hello,
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We've recently purchased a new web machine as a bit of an upgrade to our web01. This is the machine that runs the website, SourceBans, GFLBans, some of our Discord bots, and some other things. The service for the old machine ends on the 15th of March, so we'll need to have moved everything over by then. This will require a bit of downtime. Currently, I have the following Windows planned:
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<strong>GFLClan.com</strong> - Feb 17, 2022 @ 23.00 CDT - Feb 18, 2022 @ 2.00 CDT
</p>

<p>
	<strong>SourceBans (Main and ZE)</strong>, <strong>GFLBans</strong> - Feb 19, 2022 @ 23.00 - Feb 20, 2022 @ 2.00 CDT
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Discord Bots (Mod Bot and Role Sync) - </strong>Feb 22, 2022<strong> </strong>@ 23.00 - Feb 23, 2022 @ 2.00 CDT
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Pterodactyl, GMOD Loading Screens, FastDL Browser </strong>- Feb 24, 2022 @ 23.00 - Feb 25, 2022 @ 2.00 CDT
</p>

<p>
	<strong>Server Hopper Update Scripts, Old VPN Daemon, </strong><strong>GS Ranks API, Discord Relay Service, Anarchy Avatars</strong> (check if still needed?) - Feb 26, 2022 @ 23.00 - Feb 27, 2022 @ 2.00
</p>

<p>
	<br>
	I am going to not transfer the following services (they will be either discontinued or remade):
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	- Grafana / Loki / Prometheus
</p>

<p>
	- Kibana / ElasticSearch / Logstash (this is not the one Dreae maintains)
</p>

<p>
	- NextCloud (If you have data on this that you would like, please contact me before the first)
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	After the last things are moved off on the 27th, I'm going to turn off the machine so I can find anything that I might have forgotten earlier.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We're having some issues with the plugin that we used to allow discord as a sign in method and sync roles between forums and the discord.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	While we fix this:
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	 - If you used discord as a sign-in method, you will need to use a different method.
</p>

<p>
	 - If you used discord as your <strong>only</strong> sign in method, you will need contact me on discord (Xy#3482).
</p>

<p>
	 - To get your roles on the discord, you will need to ask a moderator.

<p>
	Hello everyone! I am happy to announce the newest addition to our CS:GO Division, a Tier 3-6 Surf Timer server. This means that Surf now has 3 servers.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Just for clarification, your rank does carry over from the beginner servers and vice versa. All of the maps on this server are new besides surf_ACP and surf_cookiejar. In total, the server has 57 maps on the mapcycle right now. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I do hope to see you guys playing on and enjoying the server. I set it up, so if you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me directly or make a post here. If you have a suggestion, you can bring it up here instead. <a href="https://gflclan.com/forums/topic/33477-csgo-surf-timer-suggestions/" rel="">https://gflclan.com/forums/topic/33477-csgo-surf-timer-suggestions/</a>

</p>

<p>
	IP to the server: 92.119.148.45:27015

<p>
	Be sure to add it to your favorites.

<p>
	I am very pleased to announce our most recent addition to the CS:GO Division, a VIP/Top 100 server! This is something Ash and I have been working on for quite some time. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	After a critical hardware failure resulting in the implosion of both the intermediate and beta test servers, several rounds of crying, and the hand checking of approximately 200 + 600 maps (Thanks Dini, Infra and Foolish for helping us out!) on both servers, we were able to re-release the intermediate server, and bring back the beta test server in the form of something we'd been thinking of for awhile - a VIP/Top100 server! 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	With 532 maps, this server has every map that we've got tracked that doesn't need fixing in some form. As we fix other slightly more broken maps, it'll have around 630 maps across all tiers. Feel like grinding some of those Tier 1 maps in a slightly less social environment than the Beginner server? We gotchu covered. Expert server has a Tier 6 map and you're trying to work on Tier 4s? We gotchu covered. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	As mentioned, this server is going to be more of the spiritual successor to the Beta Test server. Maps will drop here first only because adding maps requires taking the server down to ensure the "map differs" error won't happen on load. Once the map is confirmed to not have issues, it'll be queued for the respective server it belongs on, and added there once or twice a week during off-hours. There may be a slight delay initially due to the sheer number of maps we've added, but all maps will make their way to the public servers they best fit.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	If you'd like to see a list of the maps we've got on this, check out our updated server map list at <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zrfjFhTzY3jgDHkS-LQfkwt_lgCHaVhvdXad9byKt-4/edit?usp=sharing" rel="external nofollow">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zrfjFhTzY3jgDHkS-LQfkwt_lgCHaVhvdXad9byKt-4/edit?usp=sharing</a>

Zayne unfortunately had to leave us because of personal reasons, but we recognize the work he did and appreciate it nonetheless. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We also want to thank all of the people who tested this server with us prior to the release! 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	With this we have also made a Discord for our TTT players. If you'd like to join, please do so! <a href="https://discord.gg/aPKDdn7" ipsnoembed="true" rel="external nofollow">https://discord.gg/aPKDdn7</a>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	The rules to the server can be found here:

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	And of course, feel free to connect to the server. Here's the IP: 92.119.148.43
</p>

<p>
	We look forward to seeing feedback, and you can give that in the subforum as well as in the Discord server should you wish to do so.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Also, with this server's release we will be doing a VIP giveaway. How do you enter, you ask? Within a weeks time of the server being up we will be giving a maximum of 3 people VIP for a month <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> wide that have over 12 hours of playtime. Should more than 3 people surpass that number, it will be down to a raffle as to which 3 win. If you surpass the 12 hour mark, do the !playtime command in-game and send it to either myself or Dominic on Discord and you'll have a chance to get VIP.

<p>
	Hello everyone! I'm happy to announce the newest addition to the CS:GO Division, a second KZ server! Something that's been requested ever since we added #1 was a server with harder maps, considering #1 was, and still is more fit for beginners. This server will feature maps that are good for everyone, having a tier 1-7 map pool with over 600 maps. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>

<p>
	I'm happy to announce that the shared Jailbreak server with Hellsgamers has now officially been released. It's been in a beta testing phase while we have worked out specifics in the last couple of months, but this is something that has been in the works since January when I first proposed the idea during the 1v1 Arena event we had with them. While unconventional for two communities to have a shared server, rest assured that this has not been rushed in any shape or form and that it has required a lot of input and effort from the upper leadership in both communities.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	It's been a pleasure working with the HG staff team, and we sincerely hope that you guys will give it a chance. The server has seen incredible success during the beta phase, and is already the tenth (!) ranked CS:GO Server in its current standing. 
</p>

<p>
	I am pleased to announce our brand new addition to our CS:GO Division. Due to the hard work of staff and players alike, <abbr title="Games For Life">GFL</abbr> Surf is in the early stages of a massive overhaul - namely, the near tripling of the current map pool. Our hope is to expand and have more diversity, and we did not feel that our former system did that very well, given that we did have two servers with easy maps and one that mostly only very experienced surfers can go on.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	This new server serves as a good middle ground for those players that are just starting to finish the harder maps on #2 and are looking to improve further before taking the leap to the Expert server. This also supports the hundreds of maps we are bringing in. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	The server has well over 200 maps in the mapcycle, which is more than all of the servers did <strong>combined</strong> prior to this. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I want to give massive thanks to our admin team, map testers, and in particular those that helped with zoning all of these maps these past couple of weeks. <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/45745-dini/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="45745" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/45745-dini/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(69,218,74);">Dini</span></a>, <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/48031-ashakiri/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="48031" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/48031-ashakiri/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(178,34,34);">AshAkiri</span></a>, <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/44051-yuptodat/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="44051" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/44051-yuptodat/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(69,218,74);">yuptodat</span></a>, <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/41119-ancliz/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="41119" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/41119-ancliz/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(69,218,74);">Ancliz</span></a> have been doing God's work.

	Hello everyone! 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I'm pleased to announce that we have officially expanded to Europe once more. Starting with a beginner Surf Timer server, our ultimate goal is going to be to essentially mirror all things Surf Timer from region to region, so this is just a start. This server is pretty much a blank copy of our #1 server, and that is intentional. Just like we have #1-#5 US servers, we plan on following the same recipe with our EU servers.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Not much else to say. I know this has been teased for a while, and we were planning on doing this much sooner, but better late than never.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Feel free to add the server to your favorites.

<p>
	I'm happy to announce two new additions to our CS:GO Server roster. KZ/Climb and Decoy Dodgeball.

	We have picked out two very driven people to manage these servers. <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/45876-infra/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="45876" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/45876-infra/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(30,233,227);">Infra</span></a> will be managing KZ, and <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/48656-fordogreenman/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="48656" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/48656-fordogreenman/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(30,233,227);">FordoGreenman</span></a> Decoy Dodgeball. Leks and I have faith in both of these guys. They have done an amazing job so far and I'm sure they'll continue to improve with time.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We also want to give a shoutout to <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/49286-ves/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="49286" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/49286-ves/" rel="">@<span style="color:rgb(30,233,227);">ves</span></a> who just became manager for Minigames about a week ago, but didn't get this type of recognition simply because Minigames has been around for a while.

<p>

<p>
	So, please feel free to join either (or both!) of these new servers. We appreciate any sort of feedback and sincerely hope you enjoy.

</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	This server is pretty much identical to Bhop #1. It's meant to be there as an alternative for our regulars.

<p>
	<span id="cke_bm_628S" style="display: none;"> </span> Hi, all.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I am excited to announce our first public Council meeting which will take place on <strong>Sunday, September 6 at 11:30 AM Eastern Time</strong> on <a href="https://discord.gg/MnPD6BG" rel="external nofollow">our main Discord server</a> under the Council category which will be made visible shortly before the meeting. If you have an opinion about a topic on the agenda, are considering applying for Community Representative, or just curious about what Council is up to, then I'll definitely recommend attending!
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	You can see the agenda and let us know if you wish to attend by going to this event in the community calendar:
</p>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" class="ipsEmbed_finishedLoading" data-embedauthorid="6" data-embedcontent="" data-embedid="embed597502820" id="ips_uid_1813_6" scrolling="no" style="overflow: hidden; height: 246px; max-width: 502px;" data-embed-src="https://gflclan.com/calendar/event/92-council-meeting-september/?do=embed"></iframe>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	We are still sorting out the final practical details so I recommend marking yourself as going if you wish to observe since I'll then be able to reach out if we make any changes to the format. As with many other things at the moment, this will be a trial run for the concept, and we will use the experience to create guidelines for future meetings.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	As always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

<p>
	Hello again,
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Due to the events of last night, it is necessary that we select a new Community Representative. As such, we will be holding a runoff election between the two remaining candidates, <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/50660-alexis/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="50660" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/50660-alexis/" id="ips_uid_1084_6" rel="">@<span style="color: rgb(114,137,218);">Alexis</span></a> and <a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="https://gflclan.com/profile/15181-dapainwayne/?do=hovercard" data-mentionid="15181" href="https://gflclan.com/profile/15181-dapainwayne/" id="ips_uid_1084_7" rel="">@<span style="color:#45da4a">DaPainWayne</span></a>.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Unlike the standard election, the runoff will be shorter and, due to only needing one more Community Representative, each member will only be able to vote for one of the two options. The election will conclude on <u>December 15, 2021 at 18:00 CT</u>, at which point the person of the aforementioned two with the most votes will become Community Representative. Otherwise, the rules for voting are the same as normal as revised rules are pending council approval:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		You must be a Member or above
	</li>
	<li>
		Your account must be at least 2 months old.
	</li>
	<li>
		You have just one vote to cast.
	</li>
	<li>
		Once you have cast a vote, you cannot remove the vote and recast it for a different person.
	</li>
	<li>
		If you're a candidate you may vote (even for yourself), but please remember to act with integrity throughout the process.'
	</li>
</ul>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	You may view the candidates' campaign posts and cast your vote <a href="https://gflclan.com/crvoting" rel="">here</a>.
