Hey folks, here's the latest round-up of SRS News.
Trader
Still in Rawl'kha, very surprisingly. It is a bit expensive but I see people are reaping the rewards with a lot more sales than normal. Last week we topped 39 million sales, bringing 1.3 M into the guild, still not enough to pay for the trader, but getting closer. If more folks could sell more stuff, we might even break even one day. I will bid again on the same traders, fingers crossed. Traders switch on Tuesday afternoons if you want to keep an eye on it.
1st Ever Dungeon Racing Event
This was awesome, so much fun, I'm delighted everyone enjoyed it so much. If we had more time, I'd run it every week rather than alternate weeks. Here are the results.
1st Yellow Team - EnigmaticTeam Inwe Bogwolf Teach 2nd Red Team - Whichisanykey Joel Alien Guretal 3rd Blue Team - Matt Mozi Vogorlo TheFluffGamer
There is now a dedicated page for Dungeon racing explaining the whole process and at the bottom of the page you can sign up for the next event, although I believe it's probably fully signed up already. Go to the page here
New Achievement For competing in 20 of these events, you will be awarded the Dungeon Racer Champion. You do not need to be on the winning team; taking part is enough. Check your achievements on the personal achievements page here.
Don't be the last to know
If you mute the SRS server in Discord or the Guild Chat and/or announcements channel, you are not going to be up to date on any announcements that we make. You are likely going to miss out on all the details of things we do. I've had a lot of people ask me a lot of questions about information that has already been posted here and in more detail on the website. "Oh what's that then? How does this work? What about this or that?" This is a bit tiring when I've spent a lot of time presenting all the answers in the website with links from here. When I use the @ESO it will alert you to something you should read. I don't use it lightly.
Sadly, those of you who have muted this server or chat channel will never know unless you look for the white dot next to the channel that an announcement has been made. If you are muting channels or servers, then it's important to check for the white dot, especially in the Guild Chat Channel or Announcement Channel, to ensure you don't miss anything, and to avoid the many questions you will have when you hear us talking about it in Discord.
Catch the Clown
Ho Ho Hoooooooo
Well it's that time again Boys, Girls and Mudcrabs.
It's the catch the clown event.
This time, we are looking for some of the lovely animals in Tamriel.
Just a reminder of the rules: Send a screenshot of your character in the same place as dribbles (It does not need to be perfect just the same place), we need to see your character in the pic (not first person). As well as a pic of the map showing your location. Check the Discord competitions channel for more details.

Congratulations, guys, keep up the great work. People like you who take part in events are the heart and soul of the guild.
Werewolf Duelling Results
1st Matt 2nd Mozi 3rd Teach The competition is getting stronger, the claws are getting sharper, I barely won this, and Mozi especially, hits like a truck, back to build theory crafting for me, I must remain top dog lol. A special mention to Gurettal. Despite being the punching bag for so long now, the lovely Gurettal has decided to improve her duelling abilities and has been training hard. She's doing really well, and I expect her to start ranking soon if she keeps this up, well done Gurettal.
Raffle
The winning number was 121, won by Whichisanykey (for the third week running! Well, he did buy a lot of tickets lol). Which won 890K, and the guild made 890K. Thanks for your support guys.
Donations
Many thanks to all of you who donated to the guild this week. Your generosity truly helps maintain our trader and rewards our competitions and guild points—we simply could not run this community without you.
A special mention to the following people for their incredible contributions:
Phobus for donating 2 million gold
KissofDeath for an astonishing 10 million gold
Both are now, of course, Paladins in recognition of their kindness.
A Note on Our 10 Million Gold Cap
You may notice that we have a policy of returning any single donation higher than 10 million gold. While we are incredibly grateful for such huge gestures, we’ve set this limit for a few heartfelt reasons:
Account Safety & Security: Massive, sudden transfers of gold can sometimes trigger "red flags" with ZeniMax’s automated fraud detection. By capping donations at 10 million, we protect both the guild and you from being mistakenly flagged for "market manipulation" or other suspicious activity.
Protecting our Members: We want everyone to enjoy their time in Tamriel. We’d hate for a member to overextend themselves in a moment of generosity and then find themselves short for a new house or a Golden Vendor item later on.
Keeping it a Community Effort: This guild belongs to all of us. By capping donations, we ensure that every contribution—whether it’s 50k or 5 million—remains a vital part of our success. We never want a single "benefactor" to feel they have to carry the guild alone.
Social Fairness: We value our flat, friendly atmosphere. Capping donations helps ensure that no one feels they have an outsized influence just because of their gold balance. In the Red Shirts, your presence and participation matter most.
Please only donate what you can easily afford to give away. We are currently cash-rich, and while these larger gifts allow us to dream bigger, your friendship is the currency we value most.
Guild Point Reporting Tool - New Instruction Video
If you've thought about using the GP reporting tool but are put off by its complexity or for other reasons, take a look at our new instruction video. It's really very easy to use, and any logged in member can use it. The video has been updated to show the latest interface and includes the Super Hard Mode addition.
First Ever Training Trial
I'm told this event was well received, and everyone found it useful. The first trial was Hel Ra Citadel, and it went so well that the group repeated it on veteran difficulty. Of course, this was the first trial in the game and is consequently the easiest, but on Veteran it can still be a challenge on the last boss, so well done everyone who took part, this is a great first step to those more difficult trials you will attempt in the future. Don't forget to sign up for the next trial on the 27th Feb, which will be Aetherian Archive, a slightly more challenging trial, but a lot of fun. There are only a few spots left, so hurry and sign up now.
That's all I can think of for this week, no doubt I've missed something so keep an eye on Discord and don't mute guild chat!
Cheers
Matt
