Summary of competition in JuneLast month was an emotional rollercoaster for many competitive and casual fishers. In the beginning of the month, the fishing servers were down every day. Then as soon as the game was stabilized, bots swarmed the boards, hiding the real fishers. Then on June 13th, fishing was taken down for bot-proofing and didn't return until June, 26th. June scoreboard standings for our guild membersBecause of not having access to the last saved scoreboard standings, I'll cite what I can remember out of the blue. Please fill me in if I have missed anyone!OverallCommodore64 earned her second overall trophy this month! Congratulations Com, that is a marvellous feat!BasskenGuild member little lizard (that's me) took the Bassken gold after an intensive and very even race against hubbydirty. hubbydirty is also a guild member, and he took the silver of Bassken lake. In third place in Bassken, we have artlady. Commodore64 earned a bronze Bassken trophy in addition to her Overall trophy and Son Toshi got his bronze guppy as planned. trophy
I can not see the rest of the Bassken rankings so if anyone else should be mentioned here for making it to the boards, please let me know. GambinoCan not remember if any guild members made it to the boards here. Please let me know if you did!DuremI don't think I saw any familiar names on the Durem board, please let me know if you made it here!Junkhubbydirty earned at least a bronze junk trophy. It's hard to say exactly where he placed, because there were not a lot of movement above him on the board since fishing went back up. This could indicate that the users there didn't know that they were on the board, weren't interested in continued fishing or that they were found to be botters and banned so they couldn't continue fishing. Either way, hubby has a trophy in junk.  (scoreboard pic taken from TF thread, hosted on my own photobucket. thanks!)

Competition in July
A lot of older fishers seem to have come out of retirement this month, since they heard about fishing being fixed finally! Unfortunately it doesn't seem like the bot-proofing has fixed everything, since captcha only applies to leave-computer-while-botting bots. However, the scoreboards are looking a lot cleaner now than previous months, despite the occasional bot here and there. In fact, there are real fishers on every scoreboard now! If fishing comes back up soon from the "no user found" bug, and stays up for the majority of the month, I believe we can look forward to a revival of fishing spirit and epic trophy runs.
insideOverall
In 7th place we have little lizard who has been filtering quite a bit so far. Insider information tells me she's only playing around with different filtering levels this month, and doesn't really plan on competing. Commodore64 can be found in 20th this month so far, she has done an awesome job with filtering and hasn't caught any junk yet. Blade90 is in 24th, fishing casual this month it seems, it sure is good to have you back on the boards!
Bassken
Xx_jewlzy_xX is in 21st position in Bassken. Considering there are a few bots in there, her actual position should be a bit higher. Nickwan is in 29th position, little lizard in 39th and Commodore64 in 47th.
Gambino
Adean_x killer is currently 15th in Gambino, Real Men Fish Naked is numero 35 on the Gambino list (and welcome back, we have missed you!) and OnionKingForever has placed at 50th in Gambino.
Durem
No guild members are ranked here!
Junk
Real Men Fish Naked is currently holding the second place in junk. *waves flag*

Changes in the guild
I'm sure some of you have noticed a few changes in the guild. Some are temporary and some will be permanent. All of this is being done in an effort to make the guild more active and easier to find your favorite topics. We all know its been pretty quiet in here lately, so we're hoping to change that.
Please bear with us for a few days and hopefully the guild will become much more active and better than it has ever been. Much love to you all.
-OnionKingForever
