A BIG "Thank You"


The Hunter Games winner is @Ayleen1412, who received 10 000 gold, proved to be the ultimate hunter and received a unique temporary rank - "Tribe's Champion"!

Well, yesterday's event was a stunning success. Since the summer break we haven't had such a nice frequency that oscillated between 7 and 10 brothers and sisters of the Tribe. Thank you for coming and competing!

Last year, when I formed the Bloodmoon Tribe along with Ari I didn’t have a clue that I'll be having a website and a Steam Group. We just wanted to get some friends and hang out with other werewolf players. New people, new ideas "Let's do some Role Play", "How about some PvP", etc. With every new active player the Tribe grew stronger, and became more dynamic. And I look at the past and see that after a year, we host a grand event almost every week (~ 45 Grand Events were held) and host small scale events like Moon Raffle or Huntsman's Feast. We saw many ambitious projects (like Bloodmoon Tribe GER) who either failed or were incorporated to the daily affairs of our little guild. It still hurts me that every quarter of a year we must purge our ranks of inactive members, but it's better to be honest, with everyone bragging that they have 431 members, but only 20 of them are active.

What the most important part is, that we are still here, growing, experimenting on new ideas and having FUN. As the guild master I met a plethora of interesting people, many who are still with the Tribe. We keep in contact and we still play ESO. Some were even present when we were just getting started. Sure, we had arguments, fallouts, or false accusations - but in the end we kept together. That's why I welcome you every time with "greeting brothers and sisters of the Tribe" or something similar. We've grown to like each other, hence we still use our nickname “the Family” (of monsters). Because we are - not bound by blood, but bound by bytes of data and a werewolf template - but it is a family bond. We have so many small day-to-day rites when we meet or just talk idly that people stopped seeing, 'cause they are used to it by now.

As we enter the New Year for our guild I see changes on the horizon - Hunt of the Week is just a start. We are incorporating rules that while they exist nowadays, they weren't official. It's time to change that. There's more and with the upcoming new content (One Tamriel, houses, duels) we have a brave new world awaiting us. I'm sure we'll manage - we went through so much, that now any challenge is not hard for us.

Why? Because we are the Tribe, we are the Family.
And as your Alpha, I am forever grateful.
Thank you.
