      <title>Code of Honor (AKA the Rules)</title>
      <description>In a clan game, like the weekend games, trophy and stealth kills are limited to 1 for every 5 minutes in the match.&lt;br&gt;Spamming includes Alien Tail Spam, Mine Spam, Trophy/Stealth Spam, Plasma Spam, Smartdisk Spam, and repetative Knockdown Kills.&lt;br&gt;These rules are not solid. players may choose to override these rules based on popular vote of all players in the match.&lt;br&gt;Feel free to message me if you have any questions or something to add.&lt;br&gt;These rules are not for Ranking and Advancement tests. See the announcments &amp;quot;Ranking System (subject to revision)&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Trial of Position Overview&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Inducted Members initial Ranking&amp;quot; for those rules.</description>

      <title>Inducted Members initial ranking</title>
      <description>Initial Ranking&lt;br&gt;---------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;Upon induction into the clan, your initial rank is decided in a variation of the Trial of Position. The alterations are as follow;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*During a single ten minute match on a randomly selected map, three inducted members will face off against one another in a Deathmatch game. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*Each player is granted only one life. Upon death you are to exit the game and you shall recieve a rank based on the senior member's evaluation of your abilities. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*At the start of the match, each player shall issue a challenge to another player just as in the standard Trial of Position. The player that remains without an accepted challenge must not engage the other fighters until it is their turn to fight.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-The exception to this rule is if the remaining player is attacked, regardless of the other player's intent, it nullifies all accepted challenges and turns the game into a free for all. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-It is possible to issue a challenge and have it accepted by two opponents for a 2 vs 1.  Victory under these conditions will certainly improve the senior member's evaluation of your abilities. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* No Area-Effect weapons allowed; (includes) &lt;br&gt;	_Flamethrower&lt;br&gt;	_Pulse Rifle Grenades&lt;br&gt;	_Plasma Caster&lt;br&gt;	_Mines&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* No tracking weapons allowed&lt;br&gt;	_Smart-gun&lt;br&gt;	_Disc&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* Trophy Kills and Stealth Kills are forbidden. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* Knock Down kills are forbidden.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* Destroying Predator recharge points is forbidden.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;* Camping is forbidden (guarding one place for more than a minute, within reason)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*If at the end of the time limit no victor is declared the Trial is null, and all surviving fighters recieve ranks as seen fit by the senior member.</description>

      <title>Trial of Position Overview</title>
      <description>The Trial of Position (ToP) is the primary means of gaining and losing rank within this clan, regardless of your species. It represents a very controlled set of guidelines designed to encourage fair and honorable play within the clan. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To initiate a Trial of Position, one Player (challenger) must issue a challenge to another Player(s) of equal or higher rank (defender). &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-The challenger will choose the rules from the official guidelines, that the defender must agree to. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-The defender must accept the challenger's request unless they can provide a reasonable explanation for their refusal to a senior clan member. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-All Trials must be hosted on a 3rd party dedicated server.  Both the defender and challenger must agree on any latency issues. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-All Trials must have a senior member of the clan present to observe the match. Otherwise they will not be counted as valid.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-Additionally post game screenshots of the scores should be taken for record keeping.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-If the challenger achieves victory (total sum of kills during the entire Trial), the challenger and defender will swap ranks immediately.  Otherwise no change occurs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Official Guideline Sets:&lt;br&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Players are to conduct themselves with respect to one another. No insults, derogatory terms, gloating, etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Spam or abuse of in-game mechanics/items/glitches is strictly forbidden and will result in immediate forfeit of the Trial.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Spawn camping(including Mines on spawn) is strictly forbidden and will result in immediate forfeit of Trial.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-1 &amp;amp;lt; C-2 &amp;amp;lt; C-3 Inclusive (Optional rule sets) &lt;br&gt;Additional guidelines may be suggested for a specific Trial but must be approved by the senior observer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-1* 1 Round Trial, 10-20 minutes. Map is choosen at random.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-1* Only 'Strafe' Stealth Kills are forbidden&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;//////////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-2* 2 Round Trial, 1 Round per map with 10 minutes per round. Map selection rotates as follows;&lt;br&gt;	_Defender&lt;br&gt;	_Challenger&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-2* Players are allowed to retrieve any items before the match starts.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-2* Trophy Kills and Stealth Kills are forbidden. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-2* No Area-Effect weapons allowed; (includes) &lt;br&gt;	_Flamethrower&lt;br&gt;	_Pulse Rifle Grenades&lt;br&gt;	_Plasma Caster&lt;br&gt;	_Mines&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;///////////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-3* 3 Round Trial, 1 Round per map with 10 minutes per round. Map selection rotates as follows;&lt;br&gt;	_Defender&lt;br&gt;	_Challenger&lt;br&gt;	_Random&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-3* No tracking weapons allowed&lt;br&gt;	_Smart-gun&lt;br&gt;	_Disc&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-3* Knock Down kills are forbidden.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-3* Destroying Predator recharge points is forbidden.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;//////////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-4* Retreating from combat is forbidden.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-4* Camping is forbidden (guarding one place for more than a minute, within reason)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;//////////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;C-5* -=In Testing=-&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Example Trial: PLEXI challenges DefenderMan to a Trial of Position for the rank of Captain. Both agree to the C-3 rule set with one addition; 'pistols only'. This means that any rule set up to C-3 is in play, but excludes C-4. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;DefenderMan chooses the first map; Refinery. PLEXI defeats DefenderMan, and chooses the next map; Temple. This time PLEXI loses, and for the final round Pyramid is randomly chosen. PLEXI wins the last round and beats DefenderMan with a total Trial score of 25 to 23. PLEXI becomes Captain, while DefenderMan becomes 1st Lieutenant.</description>

      <title>Ranking System (subject to revision)</title>
      <description>The ranks within this clan will be divided based upon preferred species.  Despite this division, the overall hierarchies are the same, allowing for a higher ranking Officer Marine to dictate orders to a lower ranking Xenomorph or Predator player if need be. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Basic break down is as follows; &lt;br&gt;-All ranks with the exception of Marines are double characters(spaces included).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-Only one player may hold a specific Officer rank (O-[1,2,3]) at a time. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;-Rules will be posted in another announcement.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;United States Colonial Marines&lt;br&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;Grade	Abbrev.
