Our History: The Spy House was founded in April of 2015, by The Jerk, the leader of the clan The Pub. In August of 2015, the clan split into two, as most members went back to The Pub. After deciding to return back to The Pub, the original leader of The Spy House decided to hand over the clan to its co-leaders and returned back to lead The Pub. Four key members remained behind (tygg, copedaddy, IZIZIZ and Grimjack) and began to lead the Spy House as a single core unit, all with equal titles and responsibilities. Historical Landmark: The clan's name comes from a rather unknown American landmark in the United States. Today, The Spy House stands as a historical landmark in Port Monmouth, New Jersey, and was originally built in 1663. During the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783), the house was turned into tavern. The tavern was frequented by British troops, and it is said that when the soldiers spoke of strategic plans of attack, the tavern owner and the innkeepers overheard these conversations and would relay the messages to the Colonial troops, thus creating the nickname, "Spy House". Today: In early April, 2016, The Spy House & The Pub reunited. The Spy House is now lead by one primary Leader (Copedaddy), and 11 Co-Leaders. While several key members remain in The Pub, most have moved into The Spy House.
Our Philosophy: As stated above, The Spy House was originally led by four members after splitting from The Pub in August 2015. Today, TSH is lead by 6 Co-Leaders accompanied by 9 Elders. This core group of members are essential to the life and success of the clan. By working together as a single core unit, TSH has flourished over the past several months. While one of the six Co-Leaders will hold the title "Leader" as the other five hold the title "Co-Leader," the title Leader is held by the Co who is currently overseeing war. Our philosophy is simple, there is no one single member greater than the whole. Everyone has a role, and each role is as important as the next. As The Spy House grows, other members will be elected into leadership. Elder is awarded to those who display loyalty to the clan*, and demonstrate a desire to improve their skills. Co-Leader is awarded to an Elder who possesses all of the attributes of an Elder, AND who has earned the respect* of the members while demonstrating a sense of ownership for the clan.
Our Goals: Our goals are simple. We seek to create a team-orientated atmosphere where learning and developing skills for the game are valued. In doing so, we hope to grow into a-force-to-be-reckoned-with, and to become a community-based clan whom thrive and learn from interactions with one another.
*Loyalty is displayed through donations, war participation, and by not leaving the clan to war with other clans. While TSH does have an open door policy, leadership is held to a higher standard.
*Respect is earned by those who are mature and lead by example. Leading by example = embodying and demonstrating the goals and philosophy of the clan while improving one's individual skills.
