“If we keep doing what we’re doing, we’re going to keep getting what we’re getting.” – STEPHEN COVEY
Name Changes (this is for the sgts)If the general tells you that a certain name will not get approved please do not insist on it being on your name change request. When name changes are put in there are steps that we have to take to determine if the name can be used. The generals are not telling you that a name will not get approved just to get you not to use it. If they say that it won't be approved then there is a reason. For example, if the name has too many characters or they already know that the name is being used already.
Events Team
The Events Team is looking for members of any rank from Sargeant and up to join. Must host or co-host an event once every 2 months. Be energetic and work well with others to create a fun atmosphere for everyone. Please hit up SYN CHELL XD if interested.Weekly note ideas:
There is a topic under the XS Weekly Notes that we encourage you as Section Leaders to post in so you can have an input when notes are written. This is where we can incorporate things that are relevant to your sections rather than a broad spectrum notes. You all see and deal with clans on a daily basis, therefor you see issues first hand, whether it be minor or major. Posting there will help your leadership to not only identify the issues but come up with solutions. This is a link to get you where this is: https://www.xiledgaming.com/forums/xs-weekly-notes.161/
Communication with leadership:
XI, XC and XD's are here to help you and assist you in progressing to the next level. If there is an issue in your section/clan we encourage you to come to us and allow us to help. We can't fix things is we don't even know there is an issue. This ties into being proactive rather than reactive. If you see an issue, bring it up to a leader opposed to waiting until we are losing members and/or clans. These things can be fixed but we can't fix them unless we are aware beforehand. Don't be afraid to use the open door policy.
Section Leaders
Time Management:
As a leader in the community, you have a lot of things going on a lot of the time. However, you need to make sure you take time to just have fun and game, since that's what we're all here for at the end of the day. If you aren't having fun, and are constantly just getting online and handling issues nonstop, it's easy to lose sight of the big picture which is to make Xiled Gaming a fun place to game for all members.
If you're only able to get online a couple times a week, make it a priority to handle anything that needs your specific attention, while training the leaders below you so they're able to handle anything but the major stuff that needs to go to you. Then the rest of your time can be spent gaming and enjoying your time on the box.
Thank You!
Everyone, today marks our last meeting for the year. Thank you for all you have done this year. Your dedication, commitment, and loyalty to XG does not go unnoticed. Let's move into 2024 with a positive mindset and make XG an even greater place for gamers to want to be a part of!
A special Thank You to some of our teams:
The Design Team for their hardwork on all designs
The Events Team for their dedication to make the community come together

The task of the leader is to get their people from where they
are to where they have not been.” —Henry Kissinger
Goals for 2024
It's the beginning of the year, now is a great time to reflect back on 2023 and what you accomplished. Now is the time to set goals for this year - keep them as S.M.A.R.T. goals and make sure your leaders do the same with your assistance.
S - Specific = Don't create a goal that is unclear or needs detailed explanation, it should be specific enough to be easily understood when talking about it.
M - Measurable = Determine how you will be able to tell if the goal is 25% complete, 50% complete, and so on. If the goal isn't met 100%, talk about why.
A - Achievable = Make a goal that is not unreasonable. For example, if you set a recruiting goal for 10 recruits in a week, but typically only bring in 1-2, that goal will most likely not be met. Start with something realistic, and if that goal is met easily, then increase it for the next time.
R - Relevant = Have the goal be something the squad or clan needs to work on. For example, if recruiting is slow and needs improvement, that would be a good goal. If recruiting is something that happens normally and isn't a struggle, a goal for leadership training and development would be better.
T - Time Bound = Set a time-frame for the goal to be achieved. Whether it's a short term or long term goal, having a "due date" helps keep people focused and working towards it.
Make sure that when you set a goal you are checking in on progress at least a couple of times a week, to help keep everyone focused and ensure it isn't forgotten. If the goal isn't met, discuss why - it shouldn't be a negative conversation, just a discussion about why it didn't happen and how to try to achieve it using a different strategy.
Showing Offline:
We all appear offline from time to time. This can be when we have company, spending time with loved ones, etc.. and generally we're not available so we don't want people to think we are when our Xbox is on for whatever reasons. This should not be used to hide from our members or leadership! You should NOT be appearing offline all of the time and expect people to message you if they need you.
Leadership should NOT appear offline all of the time and leave it to your clans to guess if you are online or note. Even clan members should not appear offline all of the time. Part of the reason people join the community is to socialize with members, and if everyone appears offline, the socializing will not happen. If you are online, you should appear online unless it's for a good reason. Do not abuse the appear online function!
GWG Reminder:
If a member leaves or is kicked out today and they want to return tomorrow, they need to post a GWG app immediately. There are no time frames to follow other than the fact that a researcher will not begin research on the app until 2 weeks have passed since separation from the community (Example: after 1, 2, 3 years, member no longer needs to fill an app. Not a thing!). Only if the member left for inactivity and it has been confirmed from the member’s last usergroup removal request on the help desk, then they are welcome to join back in without an application. If there are ever any doubts or inconsistencies you have come across, please ask an XD.
Clan Usergroup:
Does your user group and clan list match? One aspect of running a clan is ALWAY checking our lists, It is your responsibility to make sure that all of your members are joining the User Group. It is also your responsibility to get those same members removed from the User Group if they leave, get kicked or transfer out. As many already know, you need to post a request in the Help Desk to get members removed. If you need assistance, please contact your immediate leadership.
Section Leaders working with Events Team:
Starting in 2024 we are going to do something spectacular for the Community. This will take each one of you to help so here it is. Every Section Leader will have a clan in his/her section to host a game night with the Events Team for the community to join . The Events Team will help with spreading the word like putting it on Calendar, Spamming out on discord and etc... It does not have to be a General to host but anyone in that clan that would like to represent. Please get with SYN CHELL XD by PM or Xbox party! If that day is free on the Calendar then we can do it. Let's fill the Calendar up folks!!
Xiled Gaming:

"DON'T FIND FAULT, FIND A REMEDY"
Leader Meeting Notes:
All Section Leader's and General's can put in a meeting note idea. The meeting notes is to help keep everyone up to date on Community News. Here are the links if you are not aware of the place you need to go to post them:
Section Leader's: https://www.xiledgaming.com/forums/xs-weekly-notes.161/
General's: https://www.xiledgaming.com/forums/generals-weekly-notes.122/
All XD's along with the XC's work together as a team to complete the notes provided.
For example:
All Events team events that are provided are on the website which we get off as so the Tournaments and the classes then so forth.
We as a team do go by the website only for this information.
Who our members can game with:
Here in Xiled Gaming we do not tell our members who they can and cannot game with. Here lately there has been talk with members that leadership has been trying to dictate who they can game with. While we do want members gaming with their clan and squad, we do understand that members have friends that are in other clans and divisions, or not in the community at all. We don't expect members to give up their other friends and only play with members of the clan that they are in. As long as they are active with the clan there should be not issues with who they are gaming with. This also includes people that you do not like. Regardless of how you feel about the person they are gaming with, if they are not doing anything to hurt the clan there should be no issues at all with members gaming with whom ever they want.
RELATIONSHIPS AND LEADERSHIP IN XG
To eliminate drama and keep any kind of favoritism or feelings from influencing decisions, XG does not allow husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend, or immediate family to directly report. We realize that with the amazing members we have, at some point you might find the person who completes your life. If you do, we require you to notify a leader (XD, XC, XI) so one of you can be moved. Notifying a leader of these relationships will not result in the loss of rank or removal from the community. However, any lying, deception, manipulation of stories or members, or relationships that generate issues or drama for the community may result in demotion and/or removal from the community. The rank structure is intended to be followed without personal feelings or emotional decisions affecting the directions of our clans.
Look, we get it, some of you are going to date. We don't care! Just spare us and your division the drama of going through it by being honest!
XTEAM
The XTEAM has been very busy with all the Challenges coming in. We are loving the challenges you all are bringing to us. Please keep up the effort and keep bringing all new game ideas as well. Any questions please feel free to Hit up SYN CAREBEAR XS , XGC Grim XS or KoG XDnME XS
