So, the Dark and Stormy Knights all earn 1 week VIPship, team colors, and title!

That means you need to have your colors set to bold dodger blue font with dark blue background. You can add a border of any color and a strike through if you so desire.

Congrats!

The_Face has graciously agreed to delay flying your banner in The Arena until after the Olympics, since the Arena did request a banner specifically for the event.

 

Woooo! Go team!

Great game, Gladiators. It was nerve-wracking to the end.

 

Yay team! Love the pretty colors...

 

Good answers, good answers!

Great win, Knights, and nice colors!

Nice job Face and all my fellow teammates.
