First off, I would like to remind everyone of my recent name change. I've changed my character name to Jeron Darkonis Astoris, and as soon as the INPR editor is fixed, you'll see why. If you can't wait that long, you can look up my file in the DB database pin #45 for the whole story behind it. I've retained my call sign of "Obiwan" and that's now set as my call sign in my TC profile, so you can all still call me that, I don't mind one bit.
Now then..
Here is the event schedule for the tenth anniversary:

And now... for something completely different... news related to LO
As I said last report, I've been doing some minor tweaks to the Codex and making sure that it's updated with the current CO's and SGCOM's. These should now be largely up to date, but just in case I'll be going through tonight and making sure to update as necessary.
I've also sent Priyum on a project to find all members who have been part of the admiralty, that is, RA-GA over the ten years the EH has existed. I will, however, be helping him since I don't want him or any of my other staff to feel like slaves. Once this list is compiled, it will be added into the Codex as a more complete "Admirals" Section.
Also, a new section that I will be adding to the Codex in light of the tenth anniversary is a section on the most influential members of the last ten years. This would include people that have been expelled, and that's something to keep in mind, but I'm not doing this to reward them. The reason for this update is more for some of the newer members to see their predecessors and learn how their actions good or bad have helped to shape our club over the last ten years. I will be working with Drax and Daniel on this project while Priyum finishes the Admiralty project.
I will also be adding a few entries into the Memorium next week. Those to be added include Xanthe, Doomsday, and a couple that were submitted by Mell.
Finally, this week, I leave you with an ironic tidbit that I though of while talking to Drax on AIM the other night. The first officer I ever met on IRC, VA DarkRaptor, had just been promoted to CA:LO. Go figure :)
As always, any questions, suggestions, and concerns are welcome.
