Fury Report # 12 (2009-05-31)

This report was submitted by CMDR-TCS/CM RichyV/Fury/Wing XIX/ISDII Subjugator


Fury WSR #12
Pilots of Fury.

The Commander was pondering his future, 2 weeks left of his 4-month 'tour of duty' and it was obvious that the Squadron had not 'grown' under his command. It would be easy to just turn away and return to the ranks as a Flight Member and maybe that would be for the best, giving someone else the chance of resurrecting this once-famed Sqn. But maybe that was just taking the easy way-out, maybe he should continue this endeavor - he would leave it up to the Pilots of FURY to decide...

"Gentlemen, frankly I can only refer to our performance in the 'Raise the Flag' Competition as appalling. For 2-weeks everyone had the chance to contribute and I had no comms to suggest that any of you would be incapacitated and therefore unable to enter in some way but still NONE of you did. Starting now I will be AWOLing those of you that cannot find time to contribute something to this Squadron - we must therefore say "goodbye" at this time to both CM Slawter Thren & CM Verigos. The rest of you will need to significantly raise your game!"


Where we are at and what we are doing...

15-days since my last Sqn Report and I have only heard from the following Squadron Pilots:-

COL TK-7764
LC Quincy Nelson
LCM Alexandr III Biges

 

Back to our old ways again...


Standing Orders:
  • Participate in the some TC-wide Competition!
  • Make it your goal to have some activity that I can report next week.
  • Get hold of TTT2 and upload your Uniform to the TC DB - I'd like to see more Fury Pilots represented, as many of you hold Ranks & Awards to be proud of!
  • Every week I expect every Pilot to REPORT IN, AWOL's are again being processed, so please don't be complacent...

TC: TIE Corps Competition Centre

Wing XIX: None.

Fury Squadron: None.


Transfers:

  1. CM Slawter Thren -> Reserves. (Pending)

In Closing:

Feel free to check-out Version 2 of our Fury Squadron website that LC Quincy Nelson has been working on, HERE and let either he or I know of any additions that you'd like to see. My thanks go to the Lieutenant Colonel who started this project of his own volition. Also, get involved in your Squadron's activities, please!

Several other Squads are beginning to record activity and many individuals are flying again as can be attested to by the Pilot Kill Board. Fury has many talented individuals in it's ranks - let's make it a great Squadron once more!

As I've mentioned before - ALL of you are expected to contact me each week with your intended activity or reasons for inactivity. This seems to be filtering through as I am getting more communications from you, thank you - but we also need to see more flying.

As mentioned above our very poor showing in the RtF has left rather a bad taste in the mouth and we are at an all-time-low when it comes to activity. I'm sure you've all seen the results by now, but if not here's a quick summary:-

  • Out of the 4 ships showing activity the Sub came 3rd, with the ISD Challenge winning by a country-mile...
  • Fury Squadron came rather a lowly 5th out of the 7 Squadrons that participated. The winners being Tempest, again by a huge margin...
  • From the 17 Pilots that took part, I was the only FURY Squadron member, coming 11th (remembering that I was holidaying in Spain for more than half of the time!) with 37 points. The winner was LC Zosite Konstyte Styles with an amazing score of 325...
  • In Single Player mode I was 10th out of 15 Pilots with 27 Points, Zos winning that one too...
  • There were no M/P entries...
  • The Fiction winner was GN Rancorous with 73 points...
  • The Graphics winner was also GN Rancorous with 40 points...
  • The IWATS winner was CPT Ard Royber of our very own FLAYER Sqn with 20 points, I came 2nd with 10 points and have been awarded the IS-SR.
  • Our participation rates were low:- ISD Subjugator - 4 out of 22 - 18% and Fury - 1 out of 11 - 9%...

With that abysmal performance it is quite obvious to me that there is something rather amiss within our Squadron. That and the fact that my 4-month Commanding tour-of-duty ends in 2 weeks has prompted me to ask whether I should stay on in this role, or move over and let someone else take the helm.

One positive point - we are now into double-figures Citation-wise with 11 as I flew 3 Battles that we were only 1 Pilot away from acheiving. We have 2 AWOL's pending though, so the situation is fluid at the moment and we will take-stock again once these are processed.

I am open to all comments and suggestions you may have over the coming 2-weeks - I feel we need to do something or Fury Squadron may well disappear completely!

If nothing else, let's try to remember that this club and the TC are all about having fun - something that seems to be lacking hereabouts at the moment...

You are dismissed.


Respectfully submitted.

CM RichyV. Commander of Fury Squadron.
