We're also gonna start a new subscribers list.
If you want keep on receiving newsletter, sign up here
Since we're heading into the new club year, we'll try to put out more newsletters.
And a new list because there's a good amount of inactives and those that probably
don't want to subscribe anymore. But it's a lot of work to figure that out.

Club Anniversary
The club's 3rd anniversary will be occurring in just under 2 months.
We're still working on what we'll be doing during the anniversary month.
Will there be events? The staff and I will do our best to make it happen.
So hopefully, we can see more people around in the club during April.
On that note, some (or most) of you have noticed the lack of activity in the club.
As I've said before, club activity's a 2-way street. Us staff members can't be active all the time,
since we have things to do IRL. So we're requesting you members to help keep the club active.
On our end, we're doing what we can to keep the club active, such as more card editions.
For those interested in talking in the club comments, some of us are around if needed.
--------------------
Events
Valentine's Day is coming up and we have a claim just for the occasion.
Remember, you'll need a badge to claim, either the v3 or v4 badges.
For those that don't have a badge, you'll need an OMC to request one.
To those that don't have OMC and/or OCB: OMC v.4 | OCB v.3
We have an event that's based on members participation but it is a work in progress.
The reason is that, we need to know if anybody is interested in it at all.
The idea of the event is that, each month, members would participate in a card edition
along with the staff on a certain theme. Think of it each member being a guest card maker.
Those of you that have been around a few years ago may remember this event from a certain club.
However, we'll only do this if there's enough people interested in doing it.
--------------------
Staff Recruitment
The Staff Recruitment thread is available for those interested.
The only position available atm are: Card Maker and Claim Maker.
Because each staff members are able to deliver their own cards and we rarely do NLs (only when needed).
The only requirements to apply is access to a photo edition program (ie. Photoshop).
If you don't know how to make a card, you can google around on how to edit pictures,
or do what I do for my cards: play around with Photoshop and see what works.
If you have any questions about it, feel free to contact me.
--------------------
Club Suggestions
Since we are coming up on the club anniversary, we would like to hear
from you members on what you want to see us do for the new club year.
We're open to any suggestions but it has to be something we can do.
However, stuff like more staff members are out of our control.
Because we can't control who applies and how many.
--------------------
Upcoming Club Editions
February 11th - Candles
February 18th - Picnic
February 25th - Bicycle
March Editions - TBA
Club editions may not happen on the exact date due to the schedule of each participants.
As always, solo editions will happen randomly.
--------------------
That's all the news for now. Any news that we have later on will be announced in the club.
Hey Everybody, very serious message from le Creator of RACE
Please read carefully
As I'm sure some of you have noticed, RACE hasn't been very active lately
Part of that is my fault, I haven't been able to give it my full attention while being busy with moving and work in real life
However I think a big part of it is the fact that so few members visit the club
I mean we have nearly 2000 members.... maybe 20 active? total?
For a long time i was thinking about shutting down race and starting a new club with some new ideas I have
taking all the things i learned from RACE and moving on
MAL has changed since I first joined, most of my original friends are super busy and rarely around
But RACE and mal are still important to me so I have a different plan
A few people helped me come up with the idea so this is what's going to happen. We're purging RACE.
You won't be able to access it. We're going to close it for a few days
Everyone in the members list will be removed
All the threads deleted (almost)
Everything will be started over. We will start over with a smaller club and staff
I have a lot of cool ideas for what is going to happen.
For those of you that are wondering about the sports festival
It wasn't as active as we'd hoped so we closed it.
The sports fest was my way of seeing if race can still be active and it failed
So now we're purging.
When we open back up there will be a new and improved Sports Festival!
It will be the Grand Re-Opening of RACE please come back if you still love race like i do and want to be active
This isnt meant to punish the people that are around, or even the ones that arent
This is my decision
I need a reason to get excited and motivated again and I think this is the best thing for RACE We will be Re-Opening on August 1st
Thanks for everything you guys!
See you in a few days!
Welcome to Card Dreamland's newsletter! We will be telling what's going on in the club that everybody should know about!
The Creation Card Contest Is always open for people who want to enter their best made cards to win prizes! Put your birthday in this thread and get a nice surprise on your birthday in the birthday list.
Open card editions like the Kissing LE you would want to request nice cards from made by our card makers. Other card editions include member cards and member badges.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you got something out of this newsletter. See all threads here. Go here to sign up for more newsletters.
Note: If you unsubscribed and still got this NL, I apologize for it.

For those wondering why we don't deliver newsletter that often,
we only do it whenever we have something to write about.
It's not really worth sending out newsletter with only a bit of information,
especially if the only thing that's happening are the usual card editions.
But this month, we have something important to talk about:
Male Characters/Bishie Month
Yep, starting in July, we will have a Male Characters/Bishie month.
During that month, all cards editions and their cards will feature only males,
Why? Because ever since Autumn, almost all of our card editions
have featured nothing but female characters and barely any male characters.
It's enjoyable for the male members of the club, but unfair to the female members.
So, July will be dedicated to both our female staff and the female members.
Hopefully, you girls will be happy with what we decided c: Guys, you're more than welcome to join :3
Here's the club editions we'll be doing in July:
July 2nd - Butlers
July 9th - Dramatical Murder
July 16th - Shirtless Guys
July 23rd - Kuroko no Basket
July 30th - Yaoi
There are also solos and collabs that will be done at random times.
As usual, remember to keep an eye on the club.
editions may be postponed based on our schedule
--------------------
Card Edition Participation for Members
Those that visited the club comments should know what this is about. Key note: This is not a confirmed event yet. Why?
Because we want to know if anybody is interested at all.
This idea is adapted from Celilia and her club, Celilia's Wonderland.
Some of you old members may remember it, It's a monthly thing she did.
Basically, each month, there's a specific them that is picked by the staff.
Both staff and participating members would make cards based on that theme.
That's pretty much the basic info for now since we haven't decided whether to have it or not.
However, we can't do it unless the members are interested in participating with it.
So how do we find out how many people are interested? In the coming week,
I'll have a thread with more details on it and you guys can let me know if you're interested or not.
You can even suggest themes for us to do, which would make it easier on us to figure the theme.
Any questions or concerns with it, feel free to PM me.
--------------------
Other news
Raffle Event: During the 2nd half of July, we'll have a raffle again.
The prizes will mostly likely be the same, but we'll try to add more.
More information to come during July
Staff Recruitment: Here's our thread.
We changed so that you don't need any prior experiences with card making.
However, you must be willing to improve over time in both card making and graphics.
Speaking of staff, we have new and returning staff members.
So yeah, we plan to be more active now, especially since it's the summer break.
Past Editions Thread: It will not open this month due to various IRL stuff.
Club Activity: Some of you have expressed concerns about the activity
within our club, especially the club comments. The only thing I'm saying about this is:
it takes both the staff and members to keep the club active. Us staff can only do so much.
The rest us up to you members if you want to help keep the club active or not.
--------------------
That's all the news for now. Any news that we have later on will be announced in the club.

Note: I (Renkurana) lost my updated list of those that unsubscribed before so if you did
and got this NL, I apologize for it and let me know that you want to be taken off.

Club Updates
In April, we'll be having our Club Anniversary month with some events.
Almost everything that we do, from card editions to claims to other things
will be Touhou and Youkai related. Though I believe it'll be Touhou heavy c:
We may have some non-Touhou/Youkai stuff going on, but for the most part,
expect most of the stuff we do is related to Touhou and Youkai.
One of the events we'll have is a banner competition.
We postponed it several times to various factors but we can now do it.
Information about it will be released on a thread during the month.
Anyone is welcomed to join and we'll give a generous time duration for the event
so that all of the participants can take their time on it.
Also, make sure you participate in our card editions, because.....
we'll have a mini-raffle based on it. VIP badges will be among the prizes.
It may not be much but it'll grant you some of the benefits my staff gets,
including more cards. We also have new benefits that'll take effect in April.
Touhou Collection
Starting in April, we'll doing a project that'll last all year, maybe more.
We don't want to spoil the surprise so you'll have to drop by the club.
We can tell you that just about every Touhou characters will be involved.
So for those that likes Touhou, or I suppose, has to collect everything,
make sure you drop by the club starting in April.
Staff Recruitment
We've revised our club requirement for those interested in joining the staff.
The requirements are:
1) Stay active as possible (doing editions, talking in the staff chat, etc)
2) No leeching (especially this)
Other than those 2 requirements, there are no other requirements
It doesn't matter where you're good at making cards or want to learn,
everyone is welcomed to join. Of course, we can only accept a limited amount of people.
I like to keep a small staff since it's much easier to keep track of everyone and their works.
As for club edition requirements, we don't have one at all.
Basically, you work at your own pace, at your own freedom-ish.
You can do as little you want, as long as you follow rule #2.
For those interested, visit this thread.
At this time, we can't offer much other than the Card Maker and Claim Maker position.
If you have any other position in mind, I'm open for discussion.
However, there are 2 position that won't be available at all: Inviter and Deliverer
We already have someone doing a great job at inviting and the rest of us
are able to deliver our own cards. And we rarely do newsletter.
Also, it's recommend to have some Touhou knowledge, but not required.
Card Editions
March:
March 5th- Green v.2
March 12th- Sealing Club (1700 SE)
March 19th- Tails
March 26th- Imperishable Night
April:
We won't tell you the exact editions but they will be Touhou/Youkai
You'll have to visit the club to find out during the month c:
Hello Fabulous member of RACE!! I'm really sorry to not be sending out individual messages to you all, but unfortunately I don't know all of you ... and im lazy x'D
BUT i made this Valentines Day Event in order to get the chance to tell people how much they mean to me :)
Every single person in RACE means so much to me, I'm so happy you joined the club even if you aren't active (though you should be :P)
It means so much that you've stuck with me even when the club died for a bit.
I never imagined that my club would get so big. When i first started it I was hoping to even get 10 people. 20 was beyond my wildest dreams xD Now I'm above 1600!! I opened it just because i had joined mal and seen cards and wanted to try.
I probably shouldn't have made the club as early as i did .... but now I am so glad that I did C: Thank you to everyone that has joined the club, it's been such a pleasure to me watching the club grow and seeing the new people join.
Especially thank you to the people that joined at the very beginning. I'm not giving you a special message because i dont have time but I know who you are and you mean the world to me <3
Thank you all for joining my family ^^ And I hope you'll stick with me for much longer ^^ You're all the best C:
And Happy Belated Valentines Day!!
Club Updates
Been a while since I've sent out a newsletter, probably 2 months or more.
This time though, I have some stuff to talk about.
First off, with school pretty much starting for some people, like me,
the club may be less active. Although from what I'm seeing right now for September,
it's gonna be more active than the summer break in terms of card editions.
We also have some new staff members to help me and my current staff out.
Though we're able to work with our current size, if you're interested in joining,
send me a PM and we can talk about it. Though, only Card Maker position is available atm.
Claim maker....maybe. It's open for discussion.
As for events, we have one coming up: Mystery Cards. So it's self-explanatory.
However, some of the cards have a little extra prize behind them.
And for the first time since the Attendance Check event, we're giving out VIP badges.
They give extra benefits when you use them, hence why it's rare to get.
How to get them? You'll have to join first and then.....hope you be the one to get it.
I also would like as many people as possible to help keep the club active.
Whether you play the thread games or talk on the club comments, it's up to you.
Those that are doing so already, I like to thank you all for doing so.
And that should be it for now. Any club announcement I have after this newsletter,
I'll announce it on the club comments. So drop by the club whenever you can.

Come hang around, stop by the Chatroom and talk to people, chat in the club comments, play the games, request cards, have a blast!
I'm really sorry that RACE went inactive for so long, it was due to many of my staff going on hiatus and my own health and school problems causing me to have to be innactive as well. But we're back with an active staff and lots of fun ideas for the future! It would mean so much to me to have the club active again ^^ When I go through past threads and the member lists I see so many names that I used to see around and dont anymore. I miss you guys! And I want to get to know all the new people ^^ RACE is my family and I want it to be a family for all of you as well C: So please help me make RACE's birthday an awesome one by joining the drawing event and helping the club get more active than it ever has before!
Club Updates
Some exams left but we should be free from school in a week or so.
We'll be having a mini-event or two. Something to keep the club active.
More details on it later on in a future thread made by my crew.
Also, some of you have asked about joining the staff.
Despite summer vacation coming, we don't plan to add anybody atm.
Me and my Crew will all be more active during the break, so we can handle more stuff.
However, we do have a wait list so in the event that we require more,
we'll be going on that list first, before going public with it.
We may also have something else but that'll be TBD by us.
Any new updates, I'll announce it on the club comments.
