## February 2024 Hey, we’re early this time. Looks like Camellia's been all over the place these past few weeks. Let's recap some new Camellia songs this February! ![February 2024 Monthly Logo](https://cdn.camellia.wiki/images/camellia/server/monthly/2024-february.png) ### 📰 Camellia News: **YouTube Channel Music Upgrade**: Camellia’s channel has received a musical note; prior soundtracks released under “Camellia - Topic” can now be found in select albums [underneath his channel’s “Releases” section](https://www.youtube.com/@Cametek.CamelliaOfficial/featured).

Honorable mentions to @yubutek and @verlexin for taking the runner-up positions in this contest. **Server Election Results**: The winners of the Camellia server’s 4th round of elections are none other than Team Pancakes! With the aid of their mascot, Cirno, they’ve defeated the opposing Team Waffles by a significant number of votes. Congratulations~ **Camellia Jeopardy**: Sponsored by @burst06, we have pitted Team Final-Boss Clan against Team Ashed Chicken Wings in an exciting trivia game all about Camellia, with Final-Boss Clan barely managing to snag victory at the very end! ### 🚀 Server News: **Staff Updates**: Our former admin, Ungrave, and elder mod, Peachy, have decided to step down from server management duties to focus on other priorities. We send them our best wishes. We also had the great pleasure of finding new and willing volunteers to help with our work; welcome in our new helper @moonthedarkwolf and our new moderators @avidmusicenjoyer., @piavamusic, and @manutoad! Let's also congratulate @gridgalaxy for his promotion to moderator. Thank you for reading this edition of Camellia Monthly. We hope you enjoyed it. Remember to "keep on rockin'"! ## January 2024 Happy New Year everyone! Camellia has managed to up the BPM once more and kick 2024 off with several bangers, and we'd love to see it! So how did he do it? Let's find out! ![January 2024 Monthly Logo](https://cdn.camellia.wiki/images/camellia/server/monthly/2024-january.png) ### Camellia News **"Sage" joins Proseka:** Project Sekai gains a new chart in the form of Camellia's song "Sage" from Maimai! With a challenging Append difficulty at level 35, it's a unique and difficult song that'll be sure to give you a run for your money! ### New Releases **Jay Eazy - Mega Man (Camellia Remix):** I was never book smart; I'm money smart, makes me more intelligent 🗣️ 🗣️ ‼️ ‼️ 🔥 🔥 Check out this short little remix of Jay Eazy's rap song "Mega Man" [here on YouTube](https://youtu.be/b8orB2dMUKQ)! **Daten Dance (堕天ダンス):** Camellia collaborates with VTuber and singer Amanofu Stella on a [catchy new electro swing track](https://youtu.be/7o6Vav8SZyo)! **Hello BPM 2024:** Tick tock, the metronome is ticking faster! With the introduction of the new year comes the fourth installment of the Hello BPM series. This [BPM-shifting extratone song](https://youtu.be/7113wbJD3sw)'s sure to make your ears (and every rhythm gamer's hands and fingers) bleed! **Chocolat Cadabra (ショコラカタブラ):** LOTTE's chocolate celebrates its 60th anniversary! What better way to commemorate than by creating a one of a kind, [banger joint song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5j7lpWprro) between Ado (singer), Taku Inoue (composer), and Camellia (lyricist) for a Studio Trigger MV? **Camellia ft. Nanahira - MAXIMUM CHEAT GIRL:** Wow, another Nanahira collab! Who would've guessed? You can unlock this song in Beatmania IIDX's newest event, so get out there and show Camellia your chea—we mean, pro gamer moves! **Lioness' Pride Bandori Cover:** BanG Dream! collabs with Shishiro Botan on a new cover of her hit song "Lioness' Pride" with Camellia!

Show some love to your favorite breakfast item by voting for your preferred team [here](https://strawpoll.com/w4nWr6Q8YyA)! Feel free to share the poll around and garner support. There are still 9 days left to cast your vote! ### Server Updates **New Staff:** Let's welcome in our newly-promoted Temp-Admin @thecodingguy and Helper @hypertone **Current State of the Camellia Wiki:** The Camellia Wiki has seen some new updates and bug fixes! We've been hard at work with our newest feature, "Comments!" You can seek a preview on our [Beta View](https://beta.camellia.wiki) of the wiki! This will eventually be merged into the [main live branch](https://github.com/CamelliaCommunity/Wiki/live). See something missing? Read our [contributing article](https://camellia.wiki/contributing) to get started! **Archival of News and Releases JP:** We've decided to merge the EN and JP news as a means of consolidating all the information into a single channel. Now, it looks more concise! **Return of Suggestion Forums:** Missed the suggestion forums? Did we not see your suggestion? Not to worry! Now, with the [⁠#💡suggestion-forums](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1046122599064817765) back, no suggestions will be missed! **AI "Art" Restrictions:** AI-generated artwork will no longer be allowed in art channels. Why? We feel that it brings a level of "cheating" when artists spend years refining their art, whereas AI can do it in just seconds, primarily by using said artists' work for reference without authorization. While AI artwork is not allowed in the art channels, the rest of the server should not be affected. Still, we strongly discourage the use of AI content. ## December 2023 With 2023 finally ending, let's take a moment to think about all that's gone on this year... For now, though, let's review what happened in the last month of the year: December! ![December 2023 Monthly Logo](https://cdn.camellia.wiki/images/camellia/server/monthly/2023-december.png) ### We're back to the canvas again, with more Camellia to be drawn After all the spooky and birthday spirit shown in everyone's drawings back in the previous drawing contest, we've put you all to the test of Christmas spirit by providing some festive and jolly entries for the [winter drawing event!](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1123866069438840883/1184616225066725416) You still have until January 10th to submit a drawing, so time is still available to make a masterpiece! ### TANO\*C TOUR 2024 It has recently been revealed that Camellia will play at the TANO\*C TOUR 2024 live event this year, taking place at the EX Theater Roppongi in Tokyo on June 8th!

Throughout a couple of weeks, with the help of you guys providing feedback on tons of new additions to the shop and reworks regarding the shop's pricing, we were able to completely rehaul everything our shopkeeper, Mimu, had to provide when it first started selling to you guys! (Thanks to @H.I.P.E for their work on role icons and everyone who contributed in [#💡server-direction](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1034240760154947584))! #### A Shifting Staff Team The past month or two have seen a few significant changes in the staff team, including the arrival (and departure) of some friends over at the Nanahira server, as well as the resignation of Chai, who was a major contributor to past editions of this very article you’re reading. Although we have seen many friends join and leave our ranks, rest assured that those of us here will continue to do our best to ensure this server is a place you all will enjoy being in. #### For 2024, we’re also applying a ton of different things! Including 1. Enforcing the new Staff Guidelines 1. Removing @Challenges Judge, @Minecraft Helper and, @Event Organizer in favor of @Community Contributor (this update is still not immediate because we have @Toxism still relying on @Challenges Judge for now). 1. Implementing [Ko-fi community funding](https://ko-fi.com/camelliacommunity). 1. @papertek "Pinging everyone is nono, only for Camellia Monthly" Pinging everyone is nono, only for Camellia monthly & genuinely Crucial situations/problems that affect the server* And more to come. :) #### P.S If you want a piece of the action, [staff applications](https://forms.gle/Abfe4di62m1cHUWh8) are still open! We’d love to see you on board, so feel free to check it out if you’d like. Thank you all for a great 2023, let's work together to have even more fun in 2024! ## October 2023 The spooky month is officially over, but what isn’t? Camellia Monthly! ![October 2023 Monthly Logo](https://cdn.camellia.wiki/images/camellia/server/monthly/2023-october.png) ### We Drew Camellia Together, Again With the success of the first edition, this time, we’ve asked you all to provide some birthday and spooky entries to this version! Assembled by [many artists](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1088625892105924648/1170498148049879152), we thank everyone who participated.

Feel free to welcome them if you see them interacting in general chat. With them helping out, our admin team now forms a cool heptagon (probably a more relaxed shape than a square?). We’re grateful they’ll be volunteering their time to help all of us out, and we look forward to working with them! ### Staff and Rules Updates We have cut down *many* rules and combined some to make things more sane for new and existing members (from 17 down to 7!). We also added some clarification on current disclaimers as well as old ones. Please give them a read: [#🧾rules-and-info](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1121280346638524456). In parallel, we have also updated the Staff Guidelines again, adding an entirely [new section](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1088625892105924648/1164858060578230326) to it. An autobiography/transparency document was also [uploaded by papertek](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1088625892105924648/1167233462927904858), documenting his time in the community. Lastly, server moderation systems have switched off from Dyno to Wick. The full announcement is [here](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1088625892105924648/1169401636754563145). With these changes and updates, we hope you enjoy your time in the server even more~ ### Chinese Thread After some pestering from server members, we’ve created the new [Chinese thread](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1168752239561678868/1168752239561678868). Camellia的行政人员都想让我写一个好笑的信息，因此我现在想说他们都是有特别毛病的人- ### Aesthetic Changes It’s time to spice things up with new-level role names and colors! We hope this will bring a fresh new look to parts of the server. We also took the time to add some icons to the side of channels and change up the welcome message in [#👋hello-there](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1033585407285272596). As always, we welcome your suggestions on these changes in [#💡server-direction](https://discord.com/channels/435720333786480641/1034240760154947584). We hope you enjoy the improvement!
