ISD Challenge Weekly Report #31

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #31 – 14th of May 2007

 

Introduction

Good evening,

As you probably heard throughout the week, Challenge vs. Redemption competition has come to an end, with a good victory by the ISD Challenge. Again, I’d like to thank all who made an effort to participate in this fun competition, especially those who managed to achieve more than thirty points and earn themselves a good medal. I like awarding medals, and the 15 medals awarded by Challenge crew in this comp have made me very proud. Don’t ever lose this will to achieve victory!!!

Speaking of medals, the MWE medals were processed, and I am very glad to say that the Challenge personnel have earned another 13 merit medals, which also makes me very proud. I’d say keep it up, but judging by this week’s flying activity, I can say you are already doing that....great work!!! I’d like to award even more medals for this month’s coming evaluation :)

COL Darklord is still on leave, but should be back soon. In the meantime, send to me everything you’d normally send him.

COL Flint Darkstar has stepped down as Inferno Commander this week, leaving the job open. I am accepting applications for the job, which I want to fill with an enthusiastic officer, who is able to comply with the job requirements and is willing to lead Inferno back to greatness. Squadron Management 3 is necessary. Applications to me and Darklord.

COL Angel is hosting a run-on competition, which is open for the entire ship. Here it is: http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=4712, go participate, and you might get an IS-BR for your post, if it’s good enough in the opinion of the Thunder CMDR. :)

And also about competitions, Zosite’s MP comp, Friday’s Vaping Rhapsody, has become Thursday’s Vaping Rhapsody, due to obvious reasons. Go participate and earn some LoCs, or even a DFC!!!

We’ve gained a new pilot this week. CM Ibram Gaunt, who spent some time in the reserves, has arrived to join the ranks of Tornado Squadron. It’s good to have you here, Ibram!!

The TIE Corps Squadron Tournament is almost coming to an end. There is few time left to fly, so get to it, and make sure your squadron is well placed in this important Competition, which will determine the TCCOM’s Own.

The EH has achieved first place in the XWA Week of War, mainly because of LC Dirty Vader and LC Stryker. Congratulations!!

Two officers were awarded the Silver Star of the Empire this month. One of them is our own CM Zosite, and the other was former TCBGCOM, COL Talons Pryde. Congratulations to both!!! Also, congrats to Zosite who, again, was awarded two IS-GWs for TC Ace of the Month competition.

Besides Inferno Squadron, there are two other squadrons in the fleet which are in need of new Commanders. They are the Fury Squadron and Red Squadron. Applications to the ship’s WC and COM!

Competitions

* Thunder’s Cantina Fight
Start date: 05/10/2007
End date: 06/01/2007
This is a run-on competition, held by COL Angel on the Thunder message board. Posts will be judged by him, and the overall best posts will receive IS-BRs. The topic of the run-on is the name of the competition. Here it is: http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=4712.

* TIE Corps Squadron Tournament
Thats right, the Flight Office has a new competition running! THE TIE CORPS SQUADRON TOURNAMENT! It will be a simple matter of flying one of the three missions (one for each platform per week). The Squadron with the best participation over the course of the 4 weeks (4 rounds) will win IS-GWs for all participating members! If there is a TIE, the highest score between the tied Squadrons will win.
This week's missions are:
XvT-Free 200
TIE-Free 262
XWA-Free 126
Remember not to send the files to Frodo, simply BSF them and he will do the rest from there!

* The Number of the TIE Flying Beast
655 Graduates have passed through the TIE Tactics course to date, the 666th to complete it successfully will receive an IS-GR - only way to have a chance is sto take the exam - and hopefully be the 11th to do so!

* Build That Mission
The first pilot to pass the new TM/3 course with 100% will earn an IS-BR!!

* 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). Starts on June 1st and ends on June 30th.

* Friday’s Vaping Rhapsody
The new Multiplayer competition hosted by our own LCM Zosite. They happen every Friday at 15:30 EST on the #EHCOO channel. Platforms are XWA and XvT, and DFCs can be awarded.

* TIE Corps Training Competition
Every Saturday, 1300 to 1600 EST on #EHCOO
Multiplayer competition with XWA, XvT and IA. DFCs can be awarded.

* 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:

CM Zosite for earning tons of medals, COL Angel and LCM Dempsey for flying tons of missions!!!

 

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:

 

CPT Alexi Stukov and CM Shivor Dahr, for leaving the best ship ever!!!

Have another great week!!
