-MSE time's here again.. although I wonder what happened to last month's MSEs…
-ISDCA #4 results out soon

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

-Squadleague comp still hasn't been recommenced, but still we should prepare by flying the mission for it.
-We have two competitions up now, and one on its way:
One is a TIE Golf competition, where you fly a mission for the LOWEST score (invulnerable and unlimited ammo allowed). The other is a mission race, where you get a week to fly as many mission as possible. All these competitions are individual-based competitions, so they're not Omicron vs Eta, it's pilot vs pilot. These competitions start as of TODAY, the 1st, and go to the 8th.
The third, which is coming up, is a squad vs squad competitions with Tempest off the Challenge. Mission to fly is TIE-FREE 149. The comp starts the 11th and goes to the 18th.
-CitO position has been taken by CM Wysseri Arestar..adding to her duties of FL and XO.

The official Omicron Squadron Standing Orders:

Part A: For Everyone:
1) Abide all Colossus standing orders. (to be found on the Colossus web-site)
2) Competitions and other activity's: Everyone must submit something to a competition inside our squadron/ship, as long as they have the required tools needed for it (for flying comps TIE Fighter, for Graphic comps a Graphic Workshop)
3) Leaves: When you go on holiday, you go for a long weekend somewhere or anything that will prevent you from checking your e-mails and participating in any other form of activity for more then 24 consecutive hours, do two things: set your TC profile on Leave status (log in on the site, select edit profile, scroll down until you find Turn Leave Status On, make sure that's checked, and then put the reason of your leave in the textbox, click submit at the bottom of the page and your done.) Second: mail me telling me the exact same stuff you put on your profile (when you're leaving, why, and when your coming back)
Note: This also counts for exams that you really and absolutely want to put yourself 100% for (actually should be all exams :P) and you want to get all distractions away from you, so you're not going to check your e-mails, then also put your leave status on for the duration of your studying+exam and notify me.
4) Semi-leaves: Other hindering RL stuff: If you have other things in RL (RL always comes first, of course!!) to do that prevent you from flying but you can still check your e-mails, you don't have to put your leave status on if you don't want, but do mail me telling me that so I know you can't fly for any comps.
5) Contact: Everyone is allowed and advised to seek out contact with me, using ICQ, MSN Messenger, AIM, IRC or e-mail or even through the MSN Zone. All my contact info is available on my personnel profile.

Part B: For FLs only:
1) Flight Leaders are to make a report of their flight every week, not public like my Weekly Squadron Report, but personal and give recommendations and individual activity reports for your FMs.
2) FLs are also advised to seek out contact with your FMs, through ICQ, MSN Messenger, AIM, etc. and keep contact through e-mail with them and me.
3) FLs are also supposed to be a example for your FMs, and a good example at that. That means, fly when you have to, participate in comps, keep in touch, and abide by all these rules!

Part C: For FMs only:
1) Everything you submit, and that means from tfrs to submissions for a fiction competition etc, go to not only the judge (in a case of a comp outside of the squadron), but also to me, and your FL. You are also advised to seek out contact with your FLs and fellow FMs (especially those in your Flight).
2) There is a certain minimum you need to do to be an active member of the squadron (meaning not getting shipped off to the RSVs for inactivity), namely, fly at least 1 mission a week. One mission is hardly a lot to ask for per week. If your joystick/TIECD/etc. is broken and you can't fly, try to participate in a graphics competition, fiction competition or try to do something. If you need ideas for graphics, just ask me for some examples, I'll always be able to give you some. If you continue to not do any activity, don't give a good reason for not doing so, then you may be subject to be transferred to the RSVs, which I will then discuss with COM Absolut Vodka and WC Drake.

Primary: Fly TIE-FREE 22 for the LOWEST, LOWEST score possible for TIE Golf competition (deadline March 8th)
Secondary: Fly as much as possible for the mission race comp (deadline March 8th)
Tertiary: Fly TIE-FREE 92 for Squadleague comp (unknown deadline)
