Echo Squadron Report 

CM Machinari reporting: Friday • November 21 • 2003

Good morning all. It's been a wonderful week in the corps: a bit of activity; a bit more inactivity; a bit of competition; a bit of everything. :P For those of you who have yet to read my last weeks report, I am CM Machinari and I come from Wing XIV to be you new CMDR. Feel free to check out my personal profile. And come visit me on IRC in #isdvanguard or #ehcoc--I'm on quite a bit.

I've been practicing up on my XWA skills because as you know I a big XvT guy. I had to change the difficulty level to easy to get a couple of battles completed, but hey, it's all good!

Speaking of pilot files, be reminded that the "Beer Cup" is well under way and participation earns many smiley faces from your CMDR, WC, and COMM. You can find details for this competition below under "Current Comps." The battles involved are TIE TC 211, XvT TC 75, and XWA TC 24.

This paragraph is where I rant. You'll get used to it. We still have two SL's in our midst. Without knowing why this is, I must say that it is highly irregular and in fact unnacceptable. With ease there could be two promotions listed in my next report. Look here for details and let's talk about it.

On to business...


Squadron Status

  • The Squadron homepage URL has been removed from the roster page. The homepage itself is again in the works and will be announced (Dec or Jan) when it resembles something like a web site. Please send me your ideas, graphics, script, etc., whatever may help in the building of your squadron homepage. All submissions are considered as activity and may be rewarded as such based on their merit.
  • Since coming to Echo I've only had contact from 2 of Echo's other 7 pilots.
  • Echo Squadron stands currently at 8 pilots
