First off:
It was great seeing everyone out there today for the hour I was there!!! I haven't seen numbers like that for a couple weeks! It may be getting colder, but the more you personally come out, the more fun we as a whole will have! So keep coming!
Second:
I know we've got some new(er) folks coming out as of late and its good to see you guys getting motivated to building your own equipment, asking questions, and just generally getting to know everyone. Great job! Keep up the good work and keep coming out.
Third:
For the people who've been at this for a month or two now, now's a good time to be checking yourself before wrecking yourself. First, read over the Dag rules again; you wouldn't believe how easy you pick up on something you see someone else is doing, start doing it for yourself, and then realize "hey, that's totally against the rules!" You need to be looking at yourself as a fighter and as a person and asking yourself, "Would I like fighting myself?". First you should ask yourself, am I blowing off shots? Are people asking/telling me constantly if they got me? Do I feel like people have a problem with me? You should start asking people around you if there is anything they notice that you are doing that maybe you should be doing differently. This is an important time; this is the time that you show people if you are cool, or just another douchebag that we have to eventually kick out.
Forth (for all you "vets")
Good work. Keep being patient and friendly with the new folks as they learn the ropes. I think everyone's doing a great job at this so far, so just keep up the great work!!!
Again, thanks everyone for making/keeping this chapter pretty big and active, and one of the best in the organization.
See you on the battlefield!
