If there where to be a word of the year it would be 'Growth'. Forty eight new or reestablished chapters are known to have formed this year, with [[florida]] taking the prize for most chapter's formed in one state at nine. The former is due in large part to the absorption of most of the [[Sakura Moon Shogunate]], which at the time told it's members that they were a legal amtgard kingdom. This was not the case.  From this interaction we gained six new chapters.

[[Michigan]] also gained two chapters, on in Haslett, and one in Rochester Hills.  The chapter of [[Darkwolf]] is rumored to have formed in Detroit Lakes, [[Minnesota]] but there has been no meaningful contact with their members. [[Montana]] saw it's first new chapter since the formation of the [[Northern Ice Realms]] which went defunt sometime in [[2003]], [[Skystone]] was founded by [[Loup]] in Billings.  House Springs, [[Missouri]] also has a new chapter, the [[Rolling Hills of Baal]]. [[Ohio]] gained three chapters in; Oxford, Girard, and Vaughnsville. In [[Oklahoma]], previously the bastion only of [[freeholds]], most of the established chapters joined the [[Emerald Hills]] with an eye to forming a [[principality]]. They also gained two new chapters, in Stillwater and Tulsa.  Clarksville, Tennessee has a new chapter, [[Dragon's Hollow]], built on the ashes of the previous chapter, [[Crimson Stag]]. [[Texas]], ever strong picked up at least five chaters; Pleasanton, Deer Park, Ft. Worth, Waco, and Giddings. Chapters were also formed in Alexandra and Yorktown, [[Virginia]] but the group in the former, [[Shattered Lands]],  has already failed due to poor management. The Chapter in the Later, [[Harbour of Rhye]] is a consolidation of [[Sea of Rhye]] and [[Veles Harbour]]. [[West Virginia]] also saw growth, with chapters in Nitro and Wheeling. Iron River, Wyoming also has a new small chapter in the form of [[Arcadia]]. Wisconsin also gained a new chapter in Menomonie, [[Mithril Forest]], full of new blood and learning quickly.

We were blessed this year with a new Kingdom, the [[Desert Winds]] located mainly in Utah at the [[Gathering of the Clans]]. The [[CoM]] voted unanimously to grant them this elevated status. Two principalities were also formed, both under the [[Iron Mountains]], from the remnants of the [[Rosetta Pact]], [[Rivermoor]] and [[Olympus]].

Current Events [[Template:Current Events|Template]]  
−
40 players were knighted this year, the first being [[Venus Hünüwhogod]], she is also the only known person to be knighted in Neverwinter this year. The [[Wetlands]] knighted by far the most people, belting nine individuals. The [[Rising Winds]] and [[Goldenvale]] were second runners up each creating five new knights.

Also see [[Upcoming Events]] for local event listings.
−
Eighteen new knights of the flame, were created Ten Knights of the Serpent, Nine of the Crown, and three of the Sword. Tweleve of those belted had already been inducted into other orders, and Twenty eight were new knights.
 
−
 
 
−
At the time of writing there have been 521 knights created ever. That's an average of twenty knights or so,  (20.8), per year. 129 of those Knighted have been of the Crown, 250 have been in order of the Flame, 174 have been of the Serpent, and 103 have been of the Sword.

−
'''By Kingdom'''<br>
 
−
With 40 knights and 13 kingdoms, you have an average of 3.077 knights per Kingdom, that is not however how it fell out.  Some have commented on what is apparently a large number being knighted this year, however, 33 knights were created [[2007|last year]]. So considering our new kingdom, and the large number of Wetlanders belted, the numbers haven't actually jumped that high.

'''Rules'''<br>
 
−
2008 saw the release of the [[7.5]] version of the [[rulebook]]. It's release was later than some would have liked, but understandable given the number and scope of the changes made, including some major organization changes.  The rulebook now also contains the [[Kingdom Boundaries and Park Sponsorship]] rules, a guide line for which kingdom may claim a new chapter.
 
−
 
 
−
[[Award Standardization]] ratified by the [[Circle of Monarchs]] in [[2007]] is now also included in every [[Kingdom]]'s  [[corpora]] save the [[wetlands]] which has a committee working on the change over, to be submitted January 17th.
