CMDR Roth Jalis reporting in with the 61th Weekly Demon Report on 08-04-2002

==============================================
DEMON NEWS

-Junkyard page up and running.
The Emperor's Hammer has a new Highly Secret training area called the "Junkyard". The Junkyard is a massive construction site hidden in an asteriod field and designed to accomodate the recycling of metals for use by the Emperor's Hammer. The rings form a giant, flexible conduit that adjust to the changing distances between the asteriods.
But those rings can also be used as a flying arena..exactly what we are going to use them for.
LCM Crsepe has been working hard to get this up and running. Only thing he lacks are competetive times.
Use the attached file and as soon as everyone is familiar with it...it will be time for a nice competition...:)
For more information, go here: http://www.angelfire.com/games4/crsepe/

-Homepage Ideas Needed.
Bobxavi and I have decided it is time to create a new homepage. What's wrong with the current one, you ask? Well, it looks nice but also takes a lot of work to keep updated. This isn't a problem for a while but in the long term it just doesn't work. What we need is a page that is easy to update. Also we are cutting drastically on the information that can be found on the page. It's nice to put as much stuff on the page as possible, but it all needs to be updated and maintained and much info does not add much to it anyway.
What we obviously will have is a news section, current orders section and some other pages which we already use.

What i would like from each of you is to think of something you find important to add to the page. Just keep in mind a few things, it must have something to do with Demon (we will put up the description of the Tie/e1 but not all ships) and should add something to the site. (uploading the WSR to the site does not add something as we can simply put a link on the site)

Let me know if you have further questions about this.

-MB Graphics Competition
This comp is still running, you have untill the 19th to get some graphic submitted to me.
The best one will be placed on top of our MB.

-Voluntary Competition. "Total Domination"
Within a short time I will start a new competition that will last from 3 weeks (if you're unlucky =) till many weeks (depending on flying skills).It will be a Demon Competition for Domination of a certain area in space. The pilot who conquers the entire area will be the ultimate winner.
Details will follow later as i need to set up a little page for this.
What i want to know first if who of you is interested to start this and complete this. It will be only flying so nothing special and will last at least 3 weeks, though the winner will certainly only be decided after an longer time.
Let me know if you have more questions.

-Citations are once again on the rise! :) let's go get that 46 we had a while ago!

==============================================
CURRENT ORDERS
-Keep working on those Graphics

In conjunction with the Imperial Technology Commission (ITC) Banner comp, a new comp is being created to make the best design for the new ITC database.

You may make your site designs in HTML, Java, whichever you know how to do. If it's in asp or php it would be even better!

Also, if you can put the layout onto a site to be viewed, it would be excellent!

The winner's design will be used for the ITC database page.

BEGINNING: 4.1.2002
ENDING: 4.20.2002

Awards:
-1st Place - IS-GR
-2nd Place - IS-SR

For the newly created Imperial Technology Commission, a division that will serve the EH with downloads of demos and some programs as well as reviews for the EH's members.

The comp is to design a banner for the website, a normal banner (400x40 pixels). Try to have it reflect technology...

BEGINNING: 4.1.2002
ENDING: 5.1.2002

Awards:
-1st Place - IS-GR
-2nd Place - IS-SR

EH Memorium
04:26 - HA Keiran Idanian [ROKeiranIdanian@aol.com]
Greetings,

This is a subject I don't particularly like bringing up, but I really feel strongly that we should remember our friends that have pasted away from this world.

We are currently working on compiling a list of members that have passed away called the EH Memorium - as some of you may know.

I would like to ask that if you know anyone from the Emperor's Hammer that has ever past away from this world, please e-mail me! ROKeiranIdanian@aol.com Thank you!

New HCI site
04:22 - FA Chi-Long [chilong@gmx.net]
It is with great pleasure I announce that the new HCI site is ready to go completely public.

The URL is http://hci.mental-case.com

Please update any links to the HCI site so that they point there.

I'd like to specially thank INQ Moreco for his hard work and dedication to the php side of this project. Without him, the site wouldn't be anywhere near as dynamic as it is.

New Multiplayer Competitions
04:19 - VA Khadgar [khadgar1@shaw.ca]
The Combat Operations Office is proud to announce the release of two new weekly Multiplayer competitions for pilots to participate in. The first is the Sovereign Nighthawk Competition, which will take place Fridays from 3:00 PM EST - 6:00 PM EST in #EHCOC. Second, the popular competition Thursday Night Training will be returning in a new form, Saturday Night Training, which will be held on Saturdays from 8:00 PM EST - 11:00 PM EST in #EHCOC. I hope to see everyone there to help make these new competitions a success!

EH Day Update
04:18 - CPT PhoenixMan [GMFPhoenix@aol.com]
10 people have signed up already to attend EH Day at Kennywood Park in Pittsburgh, PA. The target total is 25, so we can get a group discount.

The people who have been to Kennywood say, on average, that your first visit is worth a 6 hour drive. If you live inside a 6 hour radius of Pittsburgh, you should attend. For information on the rides, and some excellent Pictures, Visit http://www.kennywood.com

If you can attend, or need more info, contact CPT PhoenixMan at GMFPhoenix@aol.com Hope to see you there!!

Mission Design...
07:12 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
A little thing to remember when creating a custom mission: there is a maximum number of crafts the game can support at one time ! This limit is 28/32 for TIE Fighter (TIE Disk/TIECD-95), 32 for Xwing vs TIE Fighter, 96 per region in X-Wing Alliance...

COO Competition Times
09:22 - COL Brucmack [bjmacken@engmail.uwaterloo.ca]
There was some confusion this morning over the time of the COO-run comp. The confusion is based on the fact that North America has not yet gone to Daylight Saving Time, and the rest of the world has :)

As of tomorrow, we will be on DST though, so consider all competition times on TC.org to be Eastern Daylight Time. In other words, comps are now at GMT -4. For most people, this will mean the comps are at the same time as they were prior to this week. For anyone in zones that do not switch to DST, the comps will be one hour earlier.

So, in other words, just consider the times listed in this database as being GMT -4 now :)

Internet guidelines
15:46 - FA Ari [ari@tiecorps.org]
I have written up a list of Internet Guidelines for the entire fleet. You can always check them out at http://www.ehnet.org/guidelines.php. Sites MUST follow the rules laid out in the guidelines, and we at the Internet Office highly recommend considering the suggestions.

Rules:

Sites MUST have links to the EH Disclaimers (http://www.emperorshammer.org/disclaim.htm) and EH Privacy Policy (http://www.emperorshammer.org/privacy.htm) pages displayed on the main page of their site or on the navbar.
Sites may NOT use tsx.org as a redirection service.
Obviously, all sites must abide by Bylaws and AoWs.
Sites who do not obey these rules will not be linked to by any major EH site. Webmasters who do not comply after being asked to may be subject to Security Officer action.
The Internet Officer reserves the right to add rules to these at any time.
Strong Suggestions:

Sites with excessively long URLs should consider domain redirection provided by http://www.stardestroyer.org.
All sites should be compatible with the latest version of major browsers (IE 6 and Netscape 6).
Sites should preferably be optimized for 800x600 resolution, but if it is necessary, 1024x768 is also acceptable.
A good idea is to run your site through the W3C HTML Validator (http://validator.w3.org/) and CSS Validator (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/).
Do not have unnecessary large images, popups, or Java applets on your page. They slow down loading time tremendously.
A warning about using MS Word and older versions of Frontpage to create websites: they add in large amounts of unnecessary tags, which slow down loading times.
These aren't too much to ask for I hope, but all EH sites MUST follow these rules.

EH Day at Kennywood Park
15:40 - CPT PhoenixMan [GMFPhoenix@aol.com]
Plans are in the works for an EH Day in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It will be held at the world-famous Kennywood Park. The park contains the famed ThunderBolt and Steel Phantom (remodelled and called Phantom's Revenge), which the Discovery Channel rated as the #1 and #5 best coasters in the entire world!

The likely date will be in July/August. Please contact gmfphoenix@aol.com and BradTack@isdcolossus.com if you'd be able to attend so it can be scheduled when it's most accomodating. We hope to see many EH members there!

More Battlestats Notes
07:41 - COL Brucmack [bjmacken@engmail.uwaterloo.ca]
This (sort of) goes along with my last note about our club's Battlestats roster...

BSC has a system that runs once per day and removes all members inactive for 100 days or more from their club rosters. The profiles remain, but they are removed from the club roster. So if you want to avoid this, do some activity on BSC before that happens, or resubmit your signup to the EH roster after being removed. Again, things like editing your profile and posting a message on BSC message boards also count towards activity there, and will reset the timer. On your player profile at BSC, you can see your last activity date as well.

Now, I have a request about new signups to the roster. Currently, I hunt for the new pilots in the TC database to see which division they should go in. It would do me a great help though if everyone could enter their ID line in the comment section of the signup. This comment is only seen by the person approving your signup, and will make sure that you aren't mistaken for someone else or (worse) not found in the TC DB. Thank you :)

Wing VI Shuts Down
05:12 - FA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
Yes, those rumours are true. Yesterday, Wing VI onboard the SSSD Sovereign was officially closed down. Increasingly, the number of TIE pilots coming into the TC has declined and both myself and the SovCOM, Vice Admiral Proton, agreed that the Sovereign could no longer support so many TIE Wings. It was not an easy decision, but one we hope will strengthen the other Sov Wings. VI's former WC, Colonel Gen Es'mith, takes over the position of Wing I WC and all VI pilots have been transferred across the other Sov Wings. If anyone has a question or comment about what has happened, then please don't hesitate to email myself and the SovCOM.

Relentless Commodore
06:39 - FA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
Earlier this week, Vice Admiral Lohr Zadash announced his decision to retire as Commodore of the ISD Relentless. In his place, congratulations to the former Wing IX WC, Rear Admiral Krax Tarnisar, someone who has proven his command competency in his previous position. Applications for a new Wing Commander are now being accepted with the following requirements:

Proven Command history - at least 4 months experience as a Squadron Commander.
Absolute reliability in turning in weekly Wing reports and prompt email reply times.
Good knowledge of all TIE Corps standing orders and policies.
No serious/recent HCI convictions.
These, in addition to all other Wing Commander duties as detailed in the Training Manual entry.
Wing IX is a single player T/F Wing in the TIE Corps Battlegroups. All applications should be sent to RA Krax Tarnisar and AD Mell by the end of the week, with "I wanna be WC!" in the subject of the email. Good luck if you choose to apply.


Wing Commander Appointment
06:28 - FA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
Congratulations to Colonel Wil Striker on his promotion to Wing Commander of Wing XIV onboard the ISD Intrepid.
