The Senate Report

As a Senator, I am of course very used to having to issue statements and, when the Yearbook staff asked me to report on what our group has done in the past two years, I was more than glad to comply. Any rumours you might have heard about Man in Hat threatening, beating or otherwise blackmailing me into complying are completely unfounded, and should be regarded as propaganda from the Wizards, the Agents, Iain, Ensign Bill, or whoever else I can mention here to make you believe me.

What the Senate really does is still a mystery to many people, including the Senators themselves. There have been a few attempts made to clarify our role, such as the Senate website, but in retrospect, we realise that they might have made things more confusing, instead. It is widely believed that being a Senator is merely about having a cool rank in the CCC and having access to the Senate's private swimming pool. Again, those rumours are absolutely wrong. It's a jacuzzi, not a swimming pool.

However, I have been asked to detail our achievements, and shall make stuff up so that it's not empty do so. The Senate was founded over a year and a half ago, originally to help reorganise the CCC for the release of Revenge of the Sith. The current chat top and login page, and the addition of new avatars have resulted from this. Following the release, instead of disbanding the group (too much work), it was decided that the Senate would remain in place, to make the Star Wars Sector Commander and their deputy's lives easier, much like the Agents for Star Trek, or the Wizards for Fantasy. Since then, in between arguments, wars and takeover plots, we have mainly tried to relax at the Senate's resort. Oh, and created a website, organised a few competitions, participated first in the creation and now in the monthly release of the Blue Report, and worked on customising the CCC's armoury, I guess.

As for personnel, our turnover hasn't been very high. We lost a total of three members since the Senate's creation, and had three waves of recruitment, including the creation of the group. As a result, we now have a roster of ten slackers hardworking members, and have lots of ideas for making everyone believe that we're actually working - including, but not limited to, Jaden and Osiris shooting at anyone insinuating that we're not. That should make next year interesting!
