Meet Schylar Reed, Commander-In-Chief of the High Command

Interview conducted by Whitney of Silveria, Minister of Peace.


Schylar Reed is a soccer fanatic, a Patriot Academy student, and the President and Commander-In-Chief of the Valiant Defender's Party. He majors in Business Management. He provides a "voice of sanity" to the more extreme and radical High Command. His tanks from Gondor ravage World War 3 in former South America.

How are you, today?
Stupendous

How long have you been in CollegePlus! ?
A year and a half.

How many credits do you have?
103

What do you think of the Forums?
I love the forums. It's a great spot to meet follow Christian friends, study together, and just have fun. No where else on the web will you find a place as cool or as encouraging as the CP forums.

What do you do when you aren't on the Forums?
I work, study, lead worship in my church and youth group, play soccer, cut wood, hunt, show sheep, and anything else that might sound fun!  

Do you have any favorite things? Food? Books? Music?
Are those loaded questions? I don't think I can narrow it down to just one per item. I like pasta, fruit, and meat for food. I'm a big fan of Christian music, in almost all forms. And for books, well let's just say I go go on till the sun comes down. A random smattering of favorites would include Rifles for Watie, Pride and Prejudice, Where The Red Fern Grows, The Bronze Bow, Last of the Mohicans, The Scarlet Letter, Any G. A. Henty book..... and the list goes on. I'll spare you the pain and stop before I really get carried away! 

Any goals after graduation?
I would like to attend a Bible college for a year, and then move on into whatever God leads me to.

Any other thoughts you would like to share to the Forums?
No! Thoughts are private things, meant only for the thinker! Hence the reason we don't think out loud.

Now down to VDP:
When did WW3 fighters want to have their own party?

Roughly three election cycles ago.

Why did they want one?
At first it was just in fun. The guys (and gals) in the WWIII thread had really become great friends (despite killing each other on a regular basis ) and we decided we would have our own party. We really didn't like any of the other candidates at the time, so we voted for us!  

Why are they running?
After our first election cycle, we decided we wanted to be the next Statesmen Party. We wanted to have a lasting impact on the Forums, the Elections, and the Presidency. That is why, for the third time, we are running. We almost won last time, and we plan on being a serious contender in this one. If elected, we plan on continuing Statesmen's work in improving the forums through initiatives like Post Up for the library, by adding tools to help new students use the Forums, by leading in good, clean, exciting debates in the Debate Hall, and by using the Presidency to lead the forums in Christian behavior. 

How did you pick out the President for VDP?
With careful strategy and planning.  

VDP President, Why did you accept?
I really want to see the forums continue to improve. I also want to see the presidency become more than a glorified greeter, but instead be a leader on the forums. Some past presidents that really did that well and went above and beyond the call of duty were Jon David and Spencer. I want to see their legacy as president continue, rather than have the office be a cheap thing. 

How did you pick out your Vice President?
Adam [De Kroon] is a veteran of many campaigns and is friends with many on the forums. We liked his vision, his initiative, and his forum image a lot. All in all, he seemed to be the perfect man for the job.

The Anti Chronicles: Narnethia Part #1

by Adam Narya of Narnethia
http://forums.collegeplus.org/viewtopic.php?f=206&t=6224&start=5580#p336594

Location: Tibet mountain outpost. Time: 6 AM.

The Wardens have briefly left chasing the Luzonians in order to eradicate the Elitinati in Tibet. What they find, however, are Aryan and his Darwens. A terrific battle pitting millions of men against each other commences, and the results are night catastrophic for the environment around Tibet. Meanwhile, Herr Narya, Emperor, has personally traveled to meet his troops in their final victory over the EitE (Elitinati in the East). Inevitably he runs into his anti-twin. A knowing smile is exchanged, a nod of the head - then they are at one another's throats.

First one will get beaten down, only to rise again and turn the tables. Triumph seems impossible, for they are evenly matched. Little did they know, however, that they were ever steadily approaching the portal, one foot back/forward at a time, until they stood on the edge of it. Herr Aryan falls to the ground under a sudden barrage from Narya, but he is able t weather it. Building up to a tremendous knockout punch, he gives it, but in the process of flying backwards, Herr Narya managed to kick him in the chin, causing him to fall backward with a dislocated jaw.

The Emperor landed in the portal field, and almost instantly vanished. Aryan took a good look around, and slowly began to grin, a harsh, lopsided thing due to his new found infirmity. His troops were beginning to rout under the withering fire of the highly disciplined Warden opposition, but he did not care. Though he may have lost the battle, he had won the war. For all one need do, as the game goes, is take out the opponent's king....
