Please help us congratulate our newly ranked-up members: (Something sounds odd about that phrase )

Ancienne Alliance is a new Kilted Elder (Double Box Pleated no doubt)
I'm sure he's not quite as elderly as the actual Alliance but who really knows?

and

GDub and muirkirkca are newly minted Samurai (Chocolate Mint ice cream anyone?)

and

IrishColoradan is so Regimental it's scary.

Congrats all and thank you for your contributions!
