    Well, I was gonna start this report off saying it has been a slow week. But the one called mother told me lying is bad for you, so I won't.

    137 missions flown, 17 medals received.

    Nuff said :)

    Now for next week, I want to see a whole lotta activity when it comes to Delta's End of Year Bash, as I anticipate the last two weeks of the year to be pretty dead. Still - I shall beat 500 missions a month to make up for it!

    Last but not least, we all knew Captain Clark was active, but this week I was attended to the fact he recently earned his ONE HUNDREDTH IS-BR, with the current standing at 103, not counting this week's trivia medal. In comparison: the officer with the second highest number "only" has 46 of them!
     

      In the headlines this week

  • Delta sqn requires a ISD to deliver all medals this week instead of the usual FRG.
  • SO Gio palermo resigns
  • Finally! The exams for all mission creation courses are back online!
     
  •   Joke of the week

    A blonde, a red head, and a brunette were walking on the beach when they found a magic lamp. They began rubbing it and genie came out and said,

    "You each may have one wish."

    The red head thought for a while and said, "Even though blondes are stupid, they have so more fun, I wish to be blonde." and she was turned blonde.

    The brunette agreed, "That's true, I really want to have more fun too, even though I'll be dumber, I wish to be blonde" and she became blonde also.

    The blonde looks at the two other blondes and said, "I just don't think I have enough fun. I don't care if I becomer even more dumb, make me more blonde, woo!"

    So the genie granted her wish and made her a man.

  •   Important Competitions

    Competitions are the livelihood of this thing we do for fun. I encourage all of you to enter as many competitions as you want to/can. And just let me know about it! Don't forget to check out the website for more information.

  • Delta's Weekly Trivia
    Each day of the week (Mon-Fri) you will receive an email with a trivia
    question, same as before. 3 pts for the first correct answer, 2 pts for
    second and 1 pt for 3rd. At the end of the week, the one with the
    most points wins the shiny. As usual, there's extra shinies available for
    accumulating set amounts of points.

  • Delta's End of Year Bash
    Another squad competition to generate some activity and medals. See section below this one for details.

  • Ace of the TIE Corps
    Each mission flown during a month will count towards your score, with shinies for the top 3 pilots.
    At the end of the year, the TC's Top Gun will win a rare IS-PW!

  • MP Ace of the TIE Corps
    Each multiplayer victory flown during a month will count towards your score, with shinies for the top 3 pilots.
    At the end of the year, the TC's Top Gun will win a rare IS-PW!
     
  •   Delta's End of Year Bash

    I hope this is something for everyone....

  • part 1: IWATS
    Once again I will attempt to educate you all with some IWATS
    (IU included) activity :)
    * Complete any IWATS/IU course you want for 1 pt
    * Complete the assigned IWATS/IU course for 2 pts
    * Highest points total at the end of the month wins
    * This week's assigned IWATS/IU Course: General Leadership
    Current standings: Ras Kronar: 2pts

  • part 2: mini runon
    I started a small run-on on the Message Boards: The History of Dellyn Tow.
    There's an introductory post to set a frame of reference.
    * Submissions should be no longer than 10 lines
    * You can't make 2 submissions in a row.
    * Everyone who makes more than 10 submissions gets an IS-BR
    Current standings: John T Clark : 1pt

  • part 3: That's my kill
    Just hoping to generate some flight activity here! Each flight activity counts, but flying the assigned mission
    earns extra credit. Extra credit is awarded once a week, so not 3 points for flying all 3!
    * Each SP mission flown earns a point, each MP mission flown earns a point
    * Each SP battle flown earns an extra point, each mission HS earns an extra point
    * Completing the assigned mission earns a bonus point
    * This week's assigned missions:
          TIE free 273: Hit and Fasde
          XvT free 223: Choices
          XWA free 138: Cadet's Day Out
    Current standings: Nutrientman: 7 pts; John T Clark: 2pts

    Medals to be won depend on participation - if enough people participate I can award a Silver Ribbon/Wings addon for the winner, with a medal as well for the runner up. If participation is too low, only the winner gets one and that will be a Bronze Ribbon/Wings addon.

      Wrapping up

    Although it's been a week harvesting a lot of medals, I've had to sign up for one 'no contact' this week which I don't like. Play the trivia folks, or let me know otherwise that you're around. I hate 'no contact' under the weekly activity logs!
