Following our bi-annual tradition, RPF held its 2024 Winter Olympics this week!! With the theme inspired by Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games, a video game classic, the Rebels split up into three teams for a fun and competitive week of mini-game tournaments. Amazing job to everyone on Team Fratres, Team Celeritas, and Team Magicae for working as a team throughout the week, cheering each other on, and giving it your all! Check out our scoreboard to see the final scores and who won!

At the end of our Olympics week, two new promotions within HCOM were announced! A big congratulations to our brand new Rebel Commander, Gabi, and our newest Second in Command, Ella! Gabi has devoted so much of her time and efforts to HCOM, staff teams, and RPF as a whole over the past few years, and we can’t wait to see what more she accomplishes during her time as RC! Ella has also been showing so much dedication and putting in lots of work during her entire time as staff and HCOM, so this was naturally the next step for her in her RPF journey! Be sure to congratulate both Gabi and Ella when you see them in chat!

To top off the excitement of the week, our Contests Team announced the results of the Olympic Meme Contest! Go check out the hilarious memes inspired by this past Olympics week, as well as who won the exclusive winning role by heading over to the results post here!
