It's very nice to see that a lot of you listened to me last week. A lot of you have made a good attempt to be active this week, and as long as I feel you are being as active as possible I can't ask for any more. However, I will remain on all of your backs to make sure you keep it up.

And you'll get your opportunities to be active. We have another competition starting today against Flayer Squadron, and I'm lining up squadrons to compete against for the upcoming weeks. If you like multiplayer, there is currently a XWA Week of War running on the MS Zone (http://vogue.ehonline.org/wow/ for info), which I've already had a go at (I lost 15-12...bah). Imperial Storm II is still running, and there are other big competitions to come in the future.

I plan for Phantom to be the best XWA squadron in the fleet within the next month. Obviously I need everyone to be active as possible for this to happen. I feel I should warn you that I maybe considered ruthless over the next few weeks, but stay on my good side and you won't mind.

Flight Officer on leave
10:50 - FA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
From tomorrow (Friday), I'll be going on leave for 4 days, until the following Monday, the reason being I'll be at the EH Summer Bash in Brighton, South England.

The majority of roster updates will be handled by my CA, Admiral Havoc, so please be sure to CC him in your emails. See you when I get back!

I'm back! :P

For those who still haven't heard, my internet access died on late Friday night and I only got it back working again on Monday afternoon. To compound things, I picked up something on Saturday and have been sick as a dog. However, I've just finished approving the backlog of competitions submitted and all the IWATS tests I mark were cleared out yesterday. Thanks for the patience shown by all members during this.

I think SA Kawolski made these: -

Orders

• Fly TC-XWA #15 for the competition against Flayer. You have until the 5th August. Results will be sorted on Monday.
• If you want to play multiplayer XWA, then get stuck into Imp Storm II or the XWA WoW
• Attend IRC as often as possible. Remember that as well as #emperor's_hammer and #tiecorps, there is also an #ISD_Immortal room. If you need any help getting on IRC and using mIRC (or whatever) mail me.
• Post on the Phantom Message Board more often. It can be found in the Squadron Forums on http://www.tiecorps.org/mb/
• Recruit!!! If I can do it, ANYONE can!!!
• Give me some BSFs to do. If there are any missions you haven't flown, then get flying. If you've completed them already, then why not go for the highscores as they may be useful in a future competition.

28/07/01 - Flew 1 game for XWA WoW ...lost :(
Comments: I've been working very hard on EHVOGUE, since I am editing the next issue all by myself. That includes writing several articles, as well as reading everything through and HTMLing them. I'm also nearly finished flying a 8 mission battle. I worked really hard to set a good example this week, so I hope this is enough to get the rest of you working too.
