Gimel Report # 2 (2002-03-10)

This report was submitted by CM Eriond Kath'Razzit


Eriond woke up on the sound of comlink... Barely seeing what he
was doing he hit the reicve button.
"Yes?" - his own hoarse voice made his head ring. No more parties
with his dark jedi brotherhood bros.. At least for a week - he
promissed to himself.
"erm... Sir?" - the unsure voice in the comlink belonged to his TAC,
Vortoq - "Everyone is waiting Sir!"
"Waiting?" - Eriond tried to remmember of what his TAC was talking...
but the clouds in his mind didn't allow that much...
"erm... Sir... it's Wednesday... Our briefing Sir...."
"Wednesday? Briefing! Sh!@#$!@ Thanks Vort, I'll be there in a sec,
or two" Eriond jumped up from his bed and regreted it instantly...
the world was spinning around.
After few seconds he calmed, and started to make preparations for
leave, at the same time watching not to step on any of the
Cheerleaders sleeping around.
But when he came to the door, it only made a wheeezing sound and...
didn't open...
He started to hit it and shout, then gripped his comlink to call a
technician, but the comlink all but exploded in his grip... He gaped
on burned hand and then with a shudder he realised something...
he rose his look and met the gazes of all gathered cheerleaders...
they were grinning at him...
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo!!!!" The sound was no louder then a
whisper behind the perfectly sealed blastdoors...
***
A week later...

SQUADRON COMPETITIONS!

-- FCHG Race is still under way, little changes since my last report,
but still some at least. The thing is that if you want a new shiny
IS-BW you have to fly out at least 50 FCHG points in a month's
time... the current standings you can fing lower in FCHG Listing
section.
-- INPR Competition Over finally... And I aam both VERY impressed and
dissapointed at the same time. Dissapointed by little work on
INPRs by some people, And ULTIMATELY impressed by the quality of
submissions I saw... and Emperor help me... I have no idea how to
decide which of the two I chose as best is really a winner...
And after many hours spend on thinking, I at last consulted some
fellow Kraths from my Clan's Krath House and we agreed on this
rating:
1. LCM Willow Whizzkid - 100%
2. LCM Kash Kadan - 99%
3. LCM Vortoq - 89%
4. LT Aragorn Strider - 72%
Low and Sam.. - 0% - both are the source of my minor
dissapointment, but I hope you guys will do better
next time :)
Jeez... You really have no idea how hard this decision was...
Willow: Your new, shiny IS-BR is coming your way. Congrats!
-- Humm... There are two matters I'd like to hear your oppinion about:
1. CRT - We SHOULD take one, and SOON
2. In some sight I have some potential Squad vs Squad challenges
(4 Potential rivals)
Mail me or on the list with your oppinions on this pls
-- I'd like to hear your proposals for Competitions as well.. In
other words I'd like you to tell me what medals would you like to
get and in what way (for what):P
For your disposition are: ISM, IS-BW and IS-BR :PP Shoot me with
answers :)(but hey... hide those blasters! :P)

**********************
CMDR's ANNOUNCMENTS
**********************

I'll try to be short this time... Firstable I'd like to
apologise for my dissapearing, but that wasn't wholly my fault.
But I am back and kicking, and with some fresh ideas.
I see some nice acivity, that's good, but the general level is much
less then those two weeks before my leave... and that's not so good...
I am not very interested in reasons, but I'd like to return to
what was ,and develop it. Unfortunately during my leave
we lost a really good and active pilot. We have to make
it up somehow, and I'd like to hear from you how :)
It's good to try recruiting, and not only on PLT Deadalus.
Every one are searching there. I don't belive you don't know any Star
Wars freaks out there, or at least ppl who love to play TF or XWA.
These are people to adress :) blah, enough talking from RO :)
BTW a VERY good way to get a lead in FCHG competition
we have is ot fly sth recomended by our TAC :P
All of you in your Surveys told me that you are ablt ro fly at least
one Battle weekly... and I didn't see that... Let's hope it will
change soon :))) Now on with the report:

**********************
XO's CORNER
**********************
Hello everyone!
I want to change the nick and the motto from our Flight (II).
If u have any idea plz send me a mail!
I´ve some suggestions but i´ll wait for other from u! :)

[send them in and CC me, if there will be enough submissions
it is not impossible that you could get medals :P -CMDR]

**********************
MO's CORNER
**********************
[Didn't get any special notes, so I'll continue - CMDR]

**********************
TAC's CORNER
**********************

OK ... there will be no TAC report this week...reason :
NO BSFs during whole week :((((
We lost a pilot :(
the Irony is that by losing him we got more BSFs couse now it is
sufficient that 3 pilots complete a battle instead of 4 ....so the
new situation :

[erm.. it can be viewed in "CITATIONS" section :P - CMDR]

and the new instructions :
CM Kath'Razzit : XWA-TC 15
LCM Kadan: XWA-TC 25 or 26 or 27
LCM Whizzkid: XWA-TC 13
LT Booker: XWA-TC 14
LCM Vortoq: XWA-TC 12
LT Low: XWA-TC 12

flying TC 13 and 15 earns CIT 2 pilots must fly 12 for CIT rest id
for long term plan :)

As for interesting battles, I recommend flying XWA FCHG3 it has a very
interesting storyline and is also very well designed (author: CPT
Rouqe Wing) and it gave me a lot of fun to play it :)
There have also been a great event lataly: a frst XWA Dark Bratherhood
battle was released, I'm about tofinish it and must say that it's one
of the best I've ever played, highly reccomended not only for DB
members :)

Have FUN flying and good luck on earning High Scores!
OK that's it for now :)

LCM Vortoq



[From my side: Vortoq, I couldn't imagine having better TAC then you,
keep up the great work - CMDR]
