Just to let you know that there's been an update to the rules!
This is not in the rules, but to make it clear..
The usage of the suicide console command is allowed.
If opponent turns up with less numbers than originally agreed, if no special arrangements were made 8v8 will be asumed as the arranged player amount, then the opponent with the most players has two choices to select from:
* Play with sides equally balanced (ie 6v6)
* Reschedule
Declination rules:
These are rules for allowing someone tot decline its not that you must decline by default.
* If the day the challenge is submitted is too close to the actual playing date (within 7 days).
* If a match is booked too far ahead (over 2 months).
* If your clan got a match that same week already, and its impossible to reschedule without voiding another declination option.
* If you have a match soon (within 4 weeks) against the same opponent.
* If a clan has a point difference against their opponent of over 60 points.

Small update has been released for RO:
The update improves the display of the player count numbers in the server browser as well as adding support for upcoming mod releases (more on that one soon). This is now available through Steam and will update automatically.
Server admins will need to update using HLDS in the normal fashion.
So guys, please restart Steam to make sure you have the update, then test the Gameserver you are playing on tonight to make sure it's been patched.
Any problems, please contact an Admin.
Most matches don't start until 21 CET, so hopefully we can get all these matches through without problem.

| BOH Interview |
( tina) 15.10.2008 at 17:39

Hello everyone
I'll be keeping you upto date with interviews. My first interview is with the Clanleader of BOH clan...enjoy 
Tina
hello vapor
Vapor
Hey Tina
Tina
Thanks for taking time for this interview
Can you please introduce yourself?
Vapor
Of course. My name is Dominik aka 1.BOH.PzD-Vapor. I'm 25 years old and live in Germany near Dortmund. RO is my favorite game for about two years now and I joined BOH in April '07.
Tina
When did the clan form?
Vapor
BOH was founded at the beginning of November in the year 2006 by our big boss Daniel.
Tina
Tell us a bit about your clan
Vapor
Well in my opinion it's less a clan, but more a big community. In the first months we were only a few guys (maybe about 30 players), who just wanted to play RO together on our public Server. Nowadays we've got about 250 active members, that are playing together on our public severs, competing in the German RO-league (DROL) or trying to gain foothold in ROL. Moreover our users are divided into normal members, who joined the clan for free, and in Premium-users who donate a few pounds per year getting little benefits.
Tina
Have you always played RO or any other games?
Vapor
Before I discovered RO, I was very familiar with Counter-Strike. But now i'm quite happy, that I left CS behind and started playing RO as it is the more complex and ambitious game.
Tina
what do all the different divisions represent?
Vapor
Well, Daniel decided to separate our players into smaller units to keep the whole structure clearly arranged (at least for our members). Therefore we got several regiments and divisions, where the more experienced Players are located in the divisions. The PzD (Panzerdivision) is a quite new idea, where we formed up our tank commanders in one special group.
Tina
How have you enjoyed your experience in rol?
Vapor
Yes, we did, but we're still in the process of learning and have much more work to do to adapt our team play/tactics to the very high level in ROL. But I'm very confident, that we will improve our skills and be a better opponent to the more experienced clans in the near future.
Tina
Whats your opinions of the community?
Vapor
I didn't really take part in the community (forums) by now, but it seems to be a nice place for discussions about the game and other things. Match arranging and tactics are my main duties and in the former case ROL is ideal.
Tina
Whats your best/worst moments in RO?
Vapor
One of the best moments in RO was my first clanwar against the German clan FranzKaiser (Luftwaffe). We played a 25vs25 match on Konigsplatz, which was very intense. We won both rounds, fantastic.. The worst moment.. hmm.. I think it was our first match against pt, where we were totally defeated by every trick in the book. That was humiliating.
Tina
Do you actively play any of the mods or do you just play RO itself?
Vapor
Darkest Hour is a good modification, I think. We also did some funwar events for our members, where we made teams of about 15 people and had some great fights. But most of the time I stick to RO itself.
Tina
Roladder seems a bit quiet, what do you think can be done to encourage more clans to be active?
Vapor
I think it's OK. We played 2 seasons in the German league, where only 9, max. 12 clans were involved. Maybe the participation will rise again in the winter. I don't see any necessities for changes or things like that in this case.
Tina
Thanks for the interview. Have a good eveining
Vapor
You're welcome. Bye Tina.
