Wing X Report #4 (20.January.02)
NEWS:
Thunder Run-on Completion Comp
I'm still waiting for authorisation on this from Mr TO, but in the meantime, y'all might as well get started. The competition is to write a concluding post for the Thunder run-on which you can find on their message board at http://www.tiecorps.org/mb/view.asp?b=68&v=1&s=0 Entries should be in .doc or .txt format ONLY and should be sent to myself (somnia_vacua@yahoo.com) and CMDR/LC Beef (beefment@aol.com) for judging. I believe the winning post will be added to the Thunder message board for everyone's reading pleasure! You can earn an IS-SR for first place, an IS-BR for second place; entries due in by 31st January.
BG Highlander Competition
Don't forget to all fly FTIE 188 for this competition - the more Challenge squads go through to the next round the better. :)
TIE Golf Results:
The results of the TIE Golf competition are as follows:
1: Tempest
2: Inferno
3: Thunder
4: Typhoon
Medals will be awarded soon - well done Tempest (again!)!
Challenge News Network: Newsletter Layout Design Competition
We're starting a newsletter - yippee! But to start a newsletter, we need a cool funkomatic design to publish it in. Are you good at graphics, html, web design in general? Then this competition is for you! Details are available below or at: http://www.imperialacademy.org/compdetails.asp?ID=1217
"The competition is to completely design a format for the forthcoming Challenge Newsletter. Candidates may work in groups or as individuals to produce the layout, including graphics, html, etc.
I would expect the following categories to be included in any layout:
NEWS
REPORTS
- Cyclone
- Inferno
- Tempest
- Thunder
- Tornado
- Typhoon
COLUMNS
GRAPHICS
- Banners
- Miscellaneous
FICTION
- Fiction
- Poetry
- Promotion / Joining Stories
ARTICLES
HUMOUR / FUN
MISSIONS & BATTLES
AWARDS & PROMOTIONS
IWATS PASSES
Medals to be awarded: IS-SR for first place, IS-BR for second place; First placed layout will have the honour and pleasure of having their layout used as the Challenge Newsletter!
Submissions should be posted on a web-host, and the URL emailed to COL Mairin Astoris and RA Darklord, or else all necessary files should be zipped and emailed (if no hosting is available to the entrants). A URL would be much preferred. :P Entries are due in by 28th February (which gives you loads of time to get this going!)"
Bugs in custom battles
11:34 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
Make sure you are flying the up-to-date version of a battle if you seem to encounter a bug. Bug correction is the current top priority of the Tactical Office, and updated versions are released every day or so. As it takes as much time to correct a bug as to check a mission for which an already corrected bug has been reported, you will save us some time and allow us to even correct other bugs much faster. Thank you for your cooperation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
COMMUNICATIONS:
You can get in touch with your fun friendly wingmates in the following locations:
http://www.tiecorps.org/mb - come armed with your TC ID number and password
Channel #isd_challenge on the Undernet - you can either download mIRC (http://www.mirc.com) or use the EH applet on the main website (http://www.emperorshammer.org/)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WC RECOMMENDED ACTIVITIES:
IWATS:
http://www.imperialacademy.org/ - a great place to improve your knowledge! Take courses in HTML, mission design, tactics, and ASP!
Battle Reviews:
So you flew the mission/battle? Why not write a review to help out mission designers and fliers? It doesn't have to be long, just a few lines - and even better it gets the Wing some great exposure!
Recruit:
'Nuff said. :P
