ISD Challenge Weekly Report #33

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #33 – 28th of May 2007

 

Introduction

Good evening, pilots,

Things were kind of slow again this week, to the point that for a couple of days no messages were sent through the mailing list...this caused Woody to feel lonely, so he took it out on the New Republic, flying tons of battles. Then we were quiet again for a couple of minutes, which made Zosite fly lots too....great stuff flying and chatting, ain’t it?

The sad news this week was the AWOL of Tornado’s LT Zjon. Well, at least until he wakes up and says “hey, I’m not AWOL” again... We all hate to have AWOL’ed pilots, so, please make sure you’re in touch with your Commander at least weekly....or do better, fly something every week, and then you’re settled ;)

The Commanders are now aware that it’s close to MSE time. I want to see efficiency in these procedures this month, guys, to make up for the terrible delay we had last month. We had our reasons and they were fair, but that does not make the Chall look good for the higher ups. So, please, at the beginning of the month, as soon as you possibly can ;)

Inferno Squadron Command is still open for apps. Send them to me and Darklord, but don’t take too long, or someone will beat you to it!!

LT Godo Nurok has been promoted to Lieutenant Commander!!! Many congrats to our currently on leave friend, who will be buying lots of booze when he returns!!

Fleet Admiral Master is excited!!!! Why shouldn’t he be?? After al, AlliED has finally become Freeware, and now everybody is able to get the full version of this fine program. And Master also sent out a couple of competitions...check the “Competitions” section below for more details! These are very good if you fancy a shot at mission design :)

Golden Tug Awards voting is very close to an end....hurry to your admin in the database, and vote for the best and worst missions of last year. I believe it has ended already...but check it out if you haven’t...

* The Corellian Connection
Every quarter of the year, the TM prof will provide the briefing for a mission. The briefing will include a basic storyline, but won't be too specific. People can build a mission using that briefing question ad submt em to the TM prof. Missions will be judged based on technical aspects, originaity, and overall feeling. Each quarter, the winner can win an IS-BW (each time). People who win 3 times get an IS-SW (only 1 per PIN), people who win 5 times get an IS-GW (one per PIN).

* Competition – the spice of life...
MUHAHAHA.
A little friendly competition to liven up this very special report (TAC Report #250). This will be AD Master’s twenty first TAC report, in each of these reports at the top there’s is a movie/tv/game quote.
The first three to email AD Master with all 21 correct answers will win IS-GR, IS-SR & IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent).
The subject line of the email should read 'When TACcy Speaks...noone listens' :P
And don't forget to include your ID Line.
Let the madness begin!

* Let’s get ready to RUUUUUUUMBLE!
Ahhhh January, the only other time of year AD Master care about professional wrestling, why? Cause its the Royal Rumble, and this year..it was goooooood.
So following his current trend of shameless rip-off comps he’s starting a new comp!
Razz
Start Date: 10th February 2007
End Date: 24th February 2007 (looks like it was postponed...)
Medals: IS-GW x3 (or subgroup equivalent)
Missions: Custom Missions

Info: One FREE (each platform), one winner (again each platform).
The three winners (you can only win one platform) will then have the opportunity to enter the 'Shameless Wrestlemania competition' in April for an IS-PW.
Currently he’s hoping to have three custom missions of his done in time, but since he really hates making stuff under pressure (comes out crap and lame) he’s not promising nothing.
Oh and don't worry, they will be beta checked before you fly them
Razz

* Master's Monthly Map & Mission 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.
Additional M: AD Master has decided to change the plot of his funkily named competition for the new year.
He has added an additional M! Now the comp also includes our flying platforms! So that means when he gives us a planet each month you can base a TIE or even an XW free on that planet! Awards remains as an IS-GR each month, and he has yet to give away a single one
Sad
Anyway....
February's World of the Moment is.....Aurora Prime!!!
http://sysman.emperorshammer.net/aurora.php
The fabulous EH homeworld provides, warm days, cold nights, a Dark Jedi infested moon, three funky massive platforms and the ever impressive New Imperial City....think of all the fun you could have. MUHAHAHAHHAA!!!!
Winning submission will be judged by AD Master based on fun level, plotline and bribes! All submissions should go through the
Custom Battle Submission Form as always, with a MMMMM mentioned in the comments box.

* 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.

* Golden Tug Awards 2007
It's time once again to award the famed and feared Golden Tug Awards!!!!!
Details: http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=4496
06 Submissions: http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=4441

* Wing X Pilot of the Week/Month 5
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 Ship, amused the Commodore, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag. This week's winner is:

LCM Godo Nurok for being promoted to LCM!!!

 

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:

 

LCM Godo Nurok, for being on leave and not showing up at his own promotion party!!! :D

 

Quote of the Week

1 – From Zosite’s IRC logs:
Ace_Fighter died by limburger cheese
<CM_ZositeKS> FMC guys! Some bicarbonate is in order on the Squid Bucket!
* CM_ZositeKS looks at MAJ Ace as he turns blue then green then...
<CM_ZositeKS> Maybe also a Coffin, dudes!
* Ace_Fighter turns to a mummy
* Ace_Fighter starts to smell real bad from the decay
<CM_ZositeKS> Bah... we already have DV here! xD
<Ace_Fighter> no he's away
<CM_ZositeKS> His smell IS NOT :P
<Ace_Fighter> that smell is my corpse
<CM_ZositeKS> But... what is doing your corpse inside DV anyway? xD”

LOL

2 – Zosite: “Still doing my best with Vice Admiral Bonini, esteemed LCM Osk-'Vincent', but I just can't make these accursed ACME traps to work as they're supposed to! They keep blowing up myself! X__x

/me checks the traps manual just to realize that's the way they are supposed to WORK o__0”

Oskar: “Trying to blow up Dan 'Marsellus' Bonini! Even if you manage to get one of those traps to blow up someone other than yourself you will probably only get one of Dan's clones :P

In the meantime, Im keeping my E-11 with me at all times and staying away from toilets ; )”

I have clones!!! :D

I guess that there were a couple more things deserving of quote this week, but due to lack of time I’m sticking with these two :)
