Report time again! Not much to report, though...


Squadron News
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
No news.
NO NEWS? Aaaaaah! This is red alert I guess! :P
Well, being just the A-CMDR and also being quite busy with exams in RL
atm, I can't make loose much...but how about a little
intra-squad-comp? What do you think? Please respond Kappans...wherever
you are. :P



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Squadron Orders
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯


- If you want some more activity in our CMDR-less time, please let me
know if you would be interested in a little Kappa competition. We
could do it squad-intern or also against Sin, as I saw from their
last report that they also had no news :P
It wouldn't make much sense though if I would bring up something and
nobody would fly except Hermann and me. :P
Some of you have been quite inactive the last time. I understand
that, I didn't do much myself. I assume it's mainly due to
the absence of Roasty...but still, it would be nice if you at least
would report in from time to time so I know you're still there!
So, those of you who would be available for a flying comp: TELL ME!
Life must go on, even when Roasty isn't with us!
Don't give me the feeling that I'm entirely failing as A-CMDR! :(

- Prelude to Andevia is still on until the end of February. For
details, go here:
http://www.imperialacademy.org/comps/prelude/
The battle for the TIE section, TIE-FCHG 2, is attached.
Here are the special submission instructions again:
"Submissions are to be mailed to the Tactical and Training Officers
at striker@tiecorps.org and jpboyce@indigo.net.au The submission
must have the email subject Prelude to Andevia Competition - TIE
Battle Submission. In addition, your submission must be zipped.
Zipping your submission means I don't get pissed off from
downloading bloated submissions. Also include your full ID line.
Submissions without the correct subject or your ID line will be
deleted. Only one pilot file per submission."

Miscellaneous
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯


- Email Change
The ASF Battlegroup Commander, Admiral Cyric, has change his email
address to eh.cyric@verizon.net.


- January Week of War Results
Week of War results for January have been processed. If you don't
get LoCs that you deserve, it probably means that I couldn't find a
TC pin for you... meaning that neither your name nor email address
turned up results in the profile search utility. If so, mail me your
pin :)


In any case, we showed strongly in the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter
competition, and not-so-strongly in the X-Wing Alliace one. In XvT
we placed fifth as a club, and in XWA we placed seventeenth.


As per the new COO WoW award competition, the following people will
be awarded Iron Stars:


For XvT:
IS-GW: Verr
IS-SW: Blackhero
IS-BW: Kaerner


For XWA:
IS-BW: Zoron


Congratulations to all winners, your awards are in the mail! For
details on how these medals are awarded, click here for its
ImperialAcademy.org competition profile.


- TAC is back
Looks like all systems are operational again... expect BSFs to be
processed over the week-end.


- Training Officer open for applications
As posted on EH.org, the position of Training Officer is open for
applications.


Overview
The position of Training Office is one of the most demanding in the
EH. The position covers a wide range and scope of duties, requiring
a multi-talented person. The successful applicant will also be under
the extra pressure of continuing the standard of work conducted by
the previous Training Officer. Some duties of the Training Officer
include:


Marking tests
Reviewing, approving and implementing new courses
Reviewing competition submissions
Assisting all members of the EH in relavent training matters
Design and running of TO competitions
Keeping IWATS staff in line
Filing reports and all the other stuff good COs do
Applicants must address the criteria as laid out below:


Selection Criteria - Essential
1. Proven experience in running competitions, preferably involving a
scope larger than a TIE Corps Wing.
2. Good written communication skills.
3. An acceptable level of presence in online media (such as IRC,
message boards)
4. Fast email response time.
5. A clean record in conduct.
6. The ability to work with a wide range of EH personnel, including
the Executive Office, Flight Officer, Operations Officer and various
officers within the TIE Corps and subgroups.


Selection Criteria - Desirable
1. Graphics ability.
2. ASP coding experience.
3. Solid training experience, either within the EH or in real life.


You must address each criteria with supporting evidence. You may
also include three references - including at least one of your
superiors (either form or current, preferably current). These
references will be checked. Applications should be sent to the Fleet
Commander (GARonin@aol.com) and Executive Officer
(jpboyce@indigo.net.au) with the subject "Application for the
position of Training Officer".


- TAC on forced leave
My connection has been shot down earlier this week, someone thought
it was wiser to wait for the return from holidays of the domain
administrator next week to deal with the virus which crashed the
mail server, disconnecting everyone for the time being. Consider me
on leave until someone competent solves the problem here :P
