Copy from the Commodore's report:

The Operation Supremacy starts tomorrow. The first round will go until the 30th of April. I will paste the first pairings and the rules into the mail. You can also look them up at:
http://OperationSupremacy.thx.to (some links don't work yet).
So Folks, get flying!!!

1.) Copperhead (3/6) versus Phoenix (5/19) - Minimum Match number: 15
2.) Python (6/10) versus Wasp (4/9) - Minimum Match number: 24
3.) Crusader (6/11) versus Avenger (5/6) - Minimum Match number: 30
4.) Valkyrie (5/10) versus Tartarus (3/6) - Minimum Match number: 15
5.) Cobra (3/6) versus Mantis (4/9) - Minimum Match number: 12
6.) Viper (3/7) versus ASF Commandstaff (4/6) - Minimum Match number: 12
7.) Vortex (3/6) versus Krayt (4/8) - Minimum Match number: 12
8.) Asp (3/7) versus Echo (5/9) - Minimum Match number: 15

Ok, the rules are quite easy. The flying is your own thing. You contact your opponents, make a time for the match, decide TOGETHER with them WHAT you fly, WHAT HOSTING type you use (10 mins on one host or 5/5), who reports, and so
on. The scores are to be sent to me before the time for that round ends, my timezone is the important one in this case! (Central European Time, GMT+1, EST+6). Setting up matches: You can fly each opposing pilot up to TWO times. Both pilots have to agree to the conditions and times! Match numbers: The numbers are easily counted. As you can see at the pairings-listings, each squadron has two numbers behind them. These Numbers show the current members and how many of them should participate. For the minimum
number of matches you multiply the numbers of those who should participate, and for the maximum you multiply the numbers of overallpilots in the squadrons.
If the minimum requirement of matches in a round is not reached by two
squadrons, there ill be investigations which squad was responsible, and then that squadron will be disqualified/ will have lost their round. To determine a winning squadron the flown matches are added up and the squad with most wins is the winner. If there is a TIE there will be selected two pilots to fly the match (random by me, unless Avenger is involved, then Cyric will select two pilots. If the ASF Commandstaff is involved too a third person will be sekected to choose two pilots). The competition is a knock-out competition. If you loose your match you're out of the game.
Awards:1st Squadron: IS-GW for the Overallwinner, IS-SW for second and
third, IS-BW for the rest 2nd to 5th Squadron: IS-SW for best pilot, IS-BW for second and third Rest: IS-BW for first place

What you must do is to go to the Krayt's roster page, contact them to their E-mail, arrange a time that works for you both and then bang their heads to walls! :P

COMMANDER'S THOUGHTS

Aww, my eyes hurt... gotta get some sleep soon.
Anyways, I'm very pleased with the current progress of the squadron. We got two new members, and hopefully we have
a new Flight Leader soon.

And the bad news, I still haven't got my DSL, according to my phone company it should arrive on this week. We shall see...
