ISD Challenge Report #4

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #4 –

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #4 – 6th of November 2006

 

Introduction

And here we go,

As you can see, I’m back from my leave. And I feel like I came back in the middle of a hurricane with all MSEs/MWE stuff to work with and so on. This is why this report is being sent out so late. For that, I apologize.

First great news is that the Challenge has made it!!! You are incredible!!! In the last minute, we managed to get the highest participation ratio in the TCBG Escort Squadron/Flagship competition, with 42% participation, and managed to retain the title of Flagship of the TIE Corps Battlegroups for another year. Congratulations are also in order for Omicron and Inferno Squadrons, who fought bravely for the Escort Squadron title. Sadly, Red squadron of the Redemption got a few more points and managed to beat them, but they managed to get second and third places, and some shinies are on the way!! But what I really want to do is congratulate every single one of you who has participated in this competition. You made me proud, and made the Challenge emerge victorious once again. I salute you!!!

There were a few very well earned promotions today. First, was Thorper from Typhoon Squadron, who has achieved the rank of Lieutenant by completing his Imperial Navy Pilot Record. Second, CMDR Murleen of Omicron Squadron has been promoted to Major, for performing above and beyond his duties of Squadron Commander and making Omicron Squadron one of the top Squadrons in this fleet. Last, our veteran Azurin Luna, who has been Commander of Thunder Squadron forever, and has entered the select club of the Colonels. Congratulations to the three of you. You are an example to be followed!!!

Raise the Flag 2006 has started, and we are already falling behind....I hope I don’t have to wait for the last minute to see some activity again. Let’s rock their world in this competition, pilots. More info in the competition website: http://fo.emperorshammer.net/sc9/events.asp. So far, the Redemption has the lead with 615 points, followed far by the DGN Lichtor V woth 166 points. We only have 56 points, so let’s move!!!

As Darklord has already stated, CM Kal J’qan from Typhoon has sadly been removed from Command for lack of communication and no activity at all. For not completing his Tour of Duty of Squadron Commander, Kal has also been demoted to the rank of Lieutenant, and is now a Flight Member in Typhoon. I’d really like to know what happened to him, because he was such a promising officer. Applications for Typhoon Commander are being accepted at this time.

With the excuse of Darklord, I’ll be the first to say that the new Inferno Squadron Commander is MAJ Prost Varsis!!! Congrats, P, for once again being Squadron Commander, and good luck to Inferno

Master’s TIE Golf competition has started. I’ve already flown for the first round. Let’s see how it goes... I’ll also keep an eye out for the other Challenge pilots’ participation...

If you have Freeworlds capabilities, I suggest you spend some time in the server this month, because it counts a lot of points for the Raise the Flag competition...

Competitions


* Kill the TCCOM!

* Raise the Flagship 2006
All competition information can be found here: http://fo.emperorshammer.net/sc9/events.asp.

* Season’s Reflections
The participants are to search for or create (better to create) submissions from the fields of poetry, story writing, graphics, and audio categories that say the most of what the upcoming holidays mean to you. Only one entry per category may be made. Star Wars twists are encouraged. Original creations will garner better scores. Each entry will be worth up to 100 points. The Grand winner will be the one with the most points overall. Writing: The submission must have at least 1 full page single spaced lines that fit the theme. Poetry: The submission may be of any type of poetry (except limerick). Grammar and diction are key in this category. Graphics: Copyrighted materials will disqualify the entrant from the category. Audio: This can be either self-made songs, a recording of your own writings you recite, or anything of this nature. This category must be accompanied by a written explanation as to why it says "This is what the season is to me". The explanation is not needed for recitations of personal created works. Copyright enforcement is in effect with this competition as the winners will have their works submitted to the newsletter for publication. Audio submissions may be submitted as links to a site to be determined. Proof of authorship may be required in some cases. Medal Awards are: Iron Star: Gold ribbons (1 for each category and for the Grand Winner), Silver ribbons for each runner up, Bronze ribbons for the third place entries and honorable mentions. Deadline is the end of this month, and submissions go to Talons Pryde.

* Master’s TIE Golf Comp
This is Master’s TIE Golf comp....you have to subscribe until October 25th to participate. Check it out here: http://tac.emperorshammer.net/TIEGolf/

* Master's Monthly Map Mayhem
Start Date: 10/1/2006
Parties Involved: EH-wide
Medals: IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent) each month.
According to the System Manual (
http://sysman.emperorshammer.net/) the EH is in control of ten systems.
Each month Master is going to pick a planet from one of the EH Controlled Systems* from the manual. Those interested will then have the remainder of the month to create a Empire at War or SW Galactic Battlegrounds or Jedi Academy map based on that planet.

*Master may throw in the odd other planet from SW from time to time with more bonuses.
Designers are free to do as they like with the map provided basics stay true to the System Manual information.
Maps will be judged on: Technical realization (use wat u got), general plotline & general enjoyment.
All maps should be submitted ala standard TACcy Rules and via the Custom BSF (
http://tac.emperorshammer.net/tacdb/batsubmit.asp)
All maps will be judged by TAC.

* Ace of the Tie Corps
Starting this month, we now have a new monthly competition series - Ace of the TIE Corps. The concept is simple - the pilot with the most flown missions at the end of each month will recieve an Iron Star with Gold Wings and the title "Ace of the Month". You will be able to see the progress of pilots over time by checking the Pilot Kill Board. At the end of the year, the pilot with the most missions flown will recieve an Iron Star with Platinum Wings and the title of "Ace of the TIE Corps".
The competition is open to all members of the TIE Corps and the counts are based on missions. Thus a battle will earn you more points than a free mission. The June 2006 division of the competition will end on 30th June, so get flying. Good luck!

* Imperial Alliance Propoganda Festival
Submit content to help promote Imperial Alliance. This can include banners, slogans, etc. The best entry each week will get an IS-GR. The best entry overall will be selected when Imperial Alliance is released and will be awarded an IS-PR. Email entries to propoganda@ehtiecorps.org. Competition will run through January 30th, 2007.

* Quote of the Week competition
Got some funny IRC quotes? Send them in! Top 3 submissions per week earn an IS-BR; top 3 submissions per month earn an IS-SR; IS-PR to the yearly winner, IS-GR to second best yearly submission, and a IS-SR to the third best yearly submissions. Email the quotes to FA Joe (Noon001@aol.com). Only rules are they must have been said within the last 2 weeks (no old, archived quotes) and you can't send in quotes of things that you have said. Must be amusing things others have said. Competition will run through January 21st, 2007.

* Wing X Pilot of the Week/Month 2
Each week the Wing X Commander will choose a pilot he believes has performed better then any other pilot on the ship that week. At the end of the month, Challenge Commodore will look at the overall performance of every Pilot of the Week for that month, and will choose one of them to become the Pilot of the Month. Each Pilot of the Week will be awarded an IS-BR and each Pilot of the Month will be awarded an IS-SR. The Wing X Pilot of the week will always be chosen in the Wing Commander’s report.

 

Dark Lord of the Week

The highly prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the person who has most advanced the success of the Wing, amused the Wing Commander, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag. This week's winner is:

Azurin and Murleen, for being great EH officers!!!

 

Ewok of the Week

Yub Yub!

Every story has a hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's Prize Ewok is none other than:

 

Kal J’qan, for being removed from the command of Typhoon.

 

Quote of the Week

Talons: “Make a good showing, give the Sovereign hell!”

You heard the man!!!
