Wing IV News:
1) TETH HAS WON!! TETH HAS WON!! *cough* Unless you've been living under a rock in these here parts, you will know that Teth was in the finals of the Colossus Squadron League 2. They were faced off against Inferno Squadron of Wing X. After much trash-talking, Teth has once again proven that they cannot be beaten...and it's official this time! :P Final scores are below:

COL Mini Minkus - 31 817 Rian - 31,643
CPT Badger - 31 804 Narcissus - 31,723
LCM Hawky - 31 804 Dark Eagle - 31,695
LCM Maximillian - 31 762 Raxell - 31,651

Also, MAJ Philo finished second in overall scoring so congratulations go out to him! Once again, great job by Teth squadron for backing up all of their talk and proving themselves once again to be the best!


2) We now go from one competition to the next. The SBRB is still going strong. There is still time for submissions! The mission is attached so go out and fly! We really can do well here and there is no excuse not to fly. Wing IV has always been one that thrives on competition, so we must continue to uphold that tradition!

3) A brief congratulations to MAJ Philo on another Bronze Star. This is NOT an easy medal to earn and the amount of activity needed to earn this is tremendous, and to do so on more than one occassion is a great achievement! Congratulations!

4) This week saw a HUGE increase in activity! I would like to congratulate the following pilots on their impressive flying feats: LC Triji Boliv, MAJ Malik, CPT Xander Drax (damn!) and Teth squadron for actively going after citations this week, already picking up a couple more! Many others have also been active this week in all sorts of different aspects and I'd like to thank all of you for such activity and hope that this trend continues!

5) Also this week saw some very interesting posts on the Tie Corps messageboards, primarily on the main TC board and the SOV MB. In cases where officers from other ships and wings become disrespectful towards us and our ship, I ask that you stay out of the arguments. CMDR's, I ask that you use your judgment before entering the fray as well. We will not sink down to such levels, so I want no ship/wing/squad bashing on our parts. We argue with facts and facts alone. If you do see a group act in such disrespectful manners, please feel free to come to me and I will see that it is handled in a proper fashion. And so that anyone who reads this knows, the Sovereign and Wing IV WILL NEVER BACK DOWN FROM A FIGHT! :P

6) Talking about messageboards, our own MB got a colour facelift. Go here to see how much I've ruined it :P

7) I would like to congratulate Turry on passing his RL test on hardware. It would seem he isn't quite as senile as once believe. I guess Hiccy has really improved on the brain pill formula :P

8) Lastly, I have made a new application for a little competition that will be included in my reports. At the end of the report will be a section of lyrics from a song. Your job is to figure out the song title and group/singer of it. First person to respond receives an IS-BR. At the end of every month, I will put up more obscure lyrics, and the winner will get an IS-SR with the second person getting an IS-BR. Most of the lyrics will come from my own cd collection, so you'll find out what I listen too...fun :P Well, hope you enjoy it somewhat.

Fleet News:
1) Congratulations to the new WC's for Wing XIII and XVIII, MAJ Khland and MAJ Ranthier Khaen respectively

Lyric's of the Week:

The tick tock of the clock is painful
All sane and logical
I want to tear it off the wall I hear words and clips and phrases
I think sick like gingerale
My stomach turns and I exhale
So Cal is my mind states but it's not my state of mind
I'm not as ugly sad as you
