@Tender : It's only been two days so no hurry on the thread locking as some people might be late to commenting, besides that, just because people have questions or different opinions does not mean we'll lock the topic. We don't fear those kind of replies in any way.
Congrats for you both.
But one thing i cant understand, why promoting maki?
Because card clasher ordered to ?
There are many guys deserve it more than him, like Burzum, Ren0k (used to be a great uc),Spaff,P o p a y, Sickz.
I never understand what you guys doing..
And wheezy still banned, pretty cool things happening here, keep listening to card clasher and everything will stay cool. Good luck btw 
With all due respect, I believe that you unfortunately do not have much of a clue as to what an UC does and the kind of knowledge that is required seeing as multiple of the people you've mentioned have no experience regarding what they would be expected to do.
Besides that, I think that there is no need for High Staff to explain why a person was chosen or not chosen as it would be extremely unfair to expose them and I doubt they would appreciate it. Every required information as to why we were chosen that you would require is in the first post and I believe you haven't read it at all otherwise you would not have asked such a question.
As to your comments regarding CC & the High Staff, it is extremely unfair from you. What you say could basically be compared to taking the High Staff team as dolls following one person and having no opinion of themselves and on top of that, you're insulting me by saying that I was not chosen for my knowledge but instead for friendship. This is extremely disrespectful and rude.
I'd appreciate it if you do not start talking badly of people without even reading posts or even asking beforehands. This is what starts conflicts due to people being uninformed and we would like to avoid this at all costs. We're open to discussion and don't bite so instead of following rumors, come ask us straight on. As long as we do the right choice (which High Staff seemingly agreed on), then there's nothing we have to hide and we will answer your questions to the best we can while keeping it a bit secret as to not offend the concerned people which I think is fair.
Thanks.
