REPORTING OFFICER: Fleet Admiral Plif, Strategic Operations Officer
DATE SUBMITTED: 21 Nov 2019

Nearly all of the merit medals and MoCs from the October round of evaluations have been recommended, though a few are still pending and a few others haven’t been recommended quite yet. Anyone who needs to turn in a recommendation doesn’t have much time left before we head into a whole ‘nother round of evaluations, so I’d recommend getting those in soon!

We’ve made a change to what medals a CMDR can recommend in the database. Previously CMDRs could write the recommendation for the ISM and PC, but recommendations for the BS and SS were restricted to COM+. The TCCS agreed to allow CMDRs to also write the recommendation for the BS and SS, giving them the ability to initiate all four of the most common merit medals awarded during the evaluations. The FSE, GN Dempsey, has implemented this change for us and it’s ready to go for the next round of evaluations.

Season Four of the Trivia Grand Tour is in progress, Week Sixteen is live on http://tc.emperorshammer.org/timetest.php?testid=380924. Congratulations to our winners from Week Fifteen: GN Mark Schueler, CM Witcher, and MAJ Keth Aalith!

With Episode IX on the horizon, new episodes of The Mandalorian coming out on Fridays, and Jedi: Fallen Order now out, we’d like any spoiler discussions to take place in the Telegram channel we’ve set aside for anyone who’s ready to chat about the latest things happening in the Star Wars Universe. To join up, ask about the spoiler chat in the TIE Corps Discussion group and one of us will send you an invite.

If you complete a new Imperial University course, you'll notice that your EH database profile gets updated automatically but not your TC database profile. The latter are updated manually by me and the TCCOM, please give us a coupld of days after your test is graded for the new course to appear in your TC profile before you email us about it.
