I thought this was a convention for Raiders of the Lost Ark enthusiasts.

How the hell did I end up here? Guess I'll stick around to see what happens.

You know how many themes are in Red, Black, and White, free to use, finished, and look fairly modern? Because I don't, I just did the favicon, some icons, and some membership stuff :P

Cut the white and use Red Pulse :P

Ensnared and Dystopia are both pretty solid themes as well with the colors you're referring to.

Dystopia is decent, indeed :P If people insist, we can make one or two themes you can switch between, I think - Just can't promise they'll be optimized with other things like the images at the top or our custom icons.

Judges tasked with inducting the first class in the Raider Hall of Fame will be announced on Friday!

Once announced, the open nomination period will begin. From Friday until June 30th, all nations will have the opportunity to nominate gameplayers who they believe have made an outstanding contribution to raiding. Raid contributions can have been made on the battlefield, within regions, tactically, through intelligence, or any other area that has made the nominee an indispensable part of raiding history. The judges will vote on the nominees during RaiderCon.

Nominations can be made by telegramming Raider Hall of Fame or posting in this thread. Any nomination must come with an detailed explanation or will be discounted. Make your voice be part of history.

Two weeks until RaiderCon begins! Make sure to sign up on the forum by clicking here!
