Internet Office News

This week we've completed design stage #1, and we move to design stage #2, which includes planning out some of the web sites to be used for Project Hawkeye. I trust I've gotten you curious over the past few weeks as to what Project Hawkeye is, so I'll let you all in on a little bit of information.

 

Project Hawkeye is the first of it's kind: an Internet Office Competition. Yes, that's right, this will be the first competition ever to be held by the IO. The competition is open to ALL EH members, not just TC, and we will try to accept as many as we can from different subgroups. The Project Hawkeye Competition will have two stages: the first is the qualifying stage, and the second is the actual competition. We will provide you with the details for qualification at a later date (can't give away everything now, can we?) We will accept about 20 people to participate in the actual competition. Awards have not yet been determined, but we'd like to give as many medals to as many participants as we can. I cannot yet say anything about the actual competition and what it consists of, but trust me, it's an original idea and has never been done in the EH. We, at the Internet Office, will pioneer the way to a new brand of competitions and entertainment within the EH. Preliminary development is now started, but we expect this to take quite some time to prepare, so I'm projecting a release date of around mid-March.

 

If you would like to work on the web design staff or graphics staff for Project Hawkeye, please contact me at ari@tiecorps.org or find me on IRC (that's probably a better way to get me) and send a URL or image as a sample of your work. We need a lot of people who are dedicated and willing to do some real work, but we will reward you sufficiently at the end.

 

RA Darkfire will be on leave from Dec. 20 - Jan 3., but we hope to have THJ issue #2 out by Dec. 21st.

 

Internet Office Poll

This week's poll is "If you could own one major company, what would it be?" The results for last week's poll were amazing...29 people out of 56 voted to punish a virus creator with a 2400 bps connection. Beware, 56K!
