Your Friendly Neighborhood General

Hello and welcome to Final Syndicate, cadet; we are more than proud to hear that you have taken an interest in enrolling and will be pleased to give you the grand tour.

Final Syndicate is, not so surprisingly, a new clan to join the FPS neighborhood. However, we'd like to start off by mentioning that every clan, big or small, all started out with the same conditions and we will live up to the high expectations that we hold in ourselves through loyalty and dedication to the clan.

All interested in joining sYn must register by clicking here. Once this form is filled and submitted, you will receive a confirmation e-mail so make sure that you provide a valid e-mail account.

You will have to activate your account before you can access certain areas of the website.

After you activate your account, fill out the Clan Application form. Make sure you answer all the questions as this will serve as your Introduction. Once you submit your application a new topic/thread will be automatically created with all the information you gave when you filled out the clan application. This topic/thread will be used to let you know if you were accepted into the clan or not.


Requirements

• Must be (REGISTERED) on our website and submit a (CLAN APPLICATION).
• Must be 14 years old or older.
• Must have a working headset.
• Must communicate during games.


How does the recruitment process work?

The recruitment process to join sYn is very straight forward. You register on our website and fill out an application. Once the application has been submitted, you should be ready for any game invitations to play with the clan.

In your application thread you will be given a list of all the members you should have on your friends list, the more of these members you have the easier and faster you get to play with the clan.

Recruitment also comes by way of a direct clan invite during a public lobby game. If you receive a direct invite, a try out may not be necessary and may result in automatically being accepted into the clan. You will have 3 days to register on our website/forums to be added to the official clan roster. If you do not register within those 3 days you will be removed from the clan, no exceptions!


Tryouts

Tryouts for sYn are conducted during public lobby games and may come at any time, so be prepared to receive a game invite by other clan members. Unless you specify a date because of a complicated schedule on your part for a tryout, do not fail to accept a game invite.

Please note, do not be worried about failing. Just play your best.

Below is information with more detail on prospects and recruits.


Prospect

A sYn prospect is someone who has been invited to join sYn by a Clan Member after seeing him/her play in a public lobby. Prospects have a slight advantage over a recruit in that they have already been scouted and the clan member or members that invited him to the Clan already liked what they saw. If you are referred to or invited to join the Clan you do not have to go through a try out and you are automatically accepted as an official Clan Member and you receive the rank of Private.

Once a prospect is accepted as an official Clan Member, they will be put on a 2 week probation period. During this period activity will be closely monitored and it is strongly advised to stay active as much as possible during this period.


Recruit

A recruit is someone who has asked or requested to join sYn via a recruiting post or by simply visiting our website. All recruits must go through and pass a tryout session with the clan.

All recruits must also go through a 2 week probation during which forum and xbox live activity for the game they are trying out for will be closely monitored.

Recruits must make sure the following requirements are completed:

1. Must be registered and submit a clan application.
2. Must show up for schedule tryouts.
3. After tryout is completed, recruits must check in their application to see if they have been accepted into the Clan.

During the tryout, we mainly focus on the two following two areas:

1. How well you communicate during the match
2. If you are willing to follow orders, i.e., moving to a location on the map and holding that position until told to move

Recruits must contact any of the members from the list given to you on your application form thread through xbox live or on their application on the forums.

All decisions regarding a recruit's application will be announced on their application thread and will not be discussed on xbox live.


Suggestions and Tips

Potential - Whenever you have the opportunity, try your best to play with the clan whenever possible. This shows that you have high potential and that you truly want to be a part of the clan. Also, if you're given a game invite, please attempt to respond out of courtesy (be it by joining or sending a message saying otherwise).

Score - While you should always try your best, don't worry about your personal score in matches. Over time, you will develop the skills and traits to become a dominant player, especially when playing objective based games.

Bad Game? - Everyone has a bad game once in a while. Hell, occasionally people will have quite a rough bad luck streak when it comes down to it, but you mustn't just give up. Try to figure out what's different from your better games and use that information to adjust your gameplay. Adapt!

Activity - Forums activity is highly recommended to be constantly updated with recent and future events, though it is not enforced. However, to be eligible to rank up or participate in clan matches, you must reach a certain amount of posts or have a certain amount of time within the clan.

Information - The forums is full of helpful information, guides, events, and more, and it's all within ease of access. Use them to your advantage and to help you rank up faster in the clan.
