1. The first rule of the CSBC is that there is no CSBC. (If you have not seen Fight Club then leave, that movie rules)
2. Clan matches are to be organized by NedFlanders. Any member can initiate a clan match, just contact NedFlanders first so he can organize it.
3. Each new member will write and turn in an entry level essay on anything to do with counter-strike. (Each essay will be subject to reviews by current CSBC members)
4. Each month the L337est member of the CSBC will be awarded the Pulizter Prize for outstanding CS player and book reader. Each winner will be asked to write an acceptance speech. An award will be given to the winner. The winner will receive a book from the Editor's personal library.
5. To become a member of the CSBC, all you need is to be able to read and write.
6. Any question having to do with the CSBC will be directed to NedFlanders. The seezar shall never be disturbed with anyones problems. NedFlanders is the acting enforcer of seezar's work. Any information that you need to get to me should be given to NedFlanders.
7. Each month there will be a book of the month and every member is required to read it. At the end of the month each member shall provide a short review of the book and create a bind claiming their review of the book. For example, Book of the Month for June is Motley Crues The Dirt. If you liked it, your bind would say. Motley Crues The Dirt Rules. You will be required to display your bind each round at least once.
8. Whatever member reads the most books each month wins next month's book of the month. You will just have to pay a $25 shipping and handling fee.
9. Freedom of speech is encouraged unless you speak badly against the seezar and nedflanders.
10. Never, ever, EVERRRR, flashbang your teammates in game. Not only because it hurts their gameplay, but it could cause permanent eye damage and could impair their ability to read.
11. When playing in a clan match, each member participating will be required to listen to Journeys Greatest Hits album. You will not be required to purchase the album, the seezar will have it available on his FTP.
12. Rule 12 is that Rule 11 rules.
13. For every clan match, each member will be required to use Roger Wilco. Not for cheating purposes, but to hear the seezar sing Journey songs. BTW, Journey is the official music of the CSBC.
14. We are not skill based unless you play like Nedflanders did in his early days. Check out www.theclq.com NedFlander~ 10 straight weeks of under or near 0.10 frags per minute.
15. Only Ned and the seezar can be Editors. Maybe one day someone will read enough books and earn a spot as a Editor but its a position harder to achieve than a man sucking his own cock. New members will enter in as novelist unless Ned or the seezar feel they are good enough book readers to be moved to author. To earn an author position within CSBC its going to take alot of dedication to the book revolution and alot of contributing to the cause.
16. As far as CSBC gameplay...play as you will, You can camp, rush, be a team player, be a loner, etc, etc...If anyone says anything to you, tell them to FUCK OFF!!!
17. The level of cheating on CS has risen a great deal in the past few months. It's a sad state of affairs when people have to cheat to enjoy a game. But there is one thing worse than cheating, thats being a whiney, sorry sac, crying rat bastard. No member of the CSBC shall ever allow themselves to cry and whine over someone cheating in CS. If you find yourself in a situation where you are confronted with cheaters, you have an option to go to one of the other 7,000 CS servers available. You have the option of not worrying about the cheater and just relax and have fun playing the game. The other option is to quit the game. If you do quit the game, please, do not send us some message saying you are quitting the game because of personal reasons or because you can not handle the cheating. Just quit the damn game without warning. The CSBC hopes to Oprah herself that you follow this rule in order to save you from sounding like a total complete jackass.
18. No Dorkchopism allowed in the CSBC. Dorkchopism: being gay, non book reader, whiney rat bastard, chumpstain, gaylord, assrodder, a library hater, and most of all, tallgeese.
19. Finally, as a Revolutionite of the CSBC, it is your primary goal to spread the word of the Book Revolution. You see, the goal of the Counter-Strike Book Club is to develop reading habits into the CS community. As a member of the CSBC, if you can just turn one non-bookreader into a hardcore book reader, you would have made a huge difference in that one person's life. That my friends, is what life is all about, making a difference in someone's life and of course, Reading Books.
20. Thou shall not take this game of CS more serious than life itself. If for any reason you get upset, feelings hurt, or insulted while playing the game you need to get a good smack in the face by the mighty pimp hand of the CSBC.
