Typhoon Report # 9 (2004-09-25)

This report was submitted by CM Dirty Vader


-=Typhoon Squadron Weekly Report=-®

(25/09/2004)

Intro

Because of a few problems including no mouse, a lack of internet connection and a busy RL, I've been kind of away from the EH of late. This will cover this week and the week before that (where I failed to do a report). I'll do my best to make sure this doesn't happen again.
No quotes of the week this time, for the simple reason that I wasn't there to capture any...
You will also have noticed that the scenery of the report has changed, this is due to the size of my earlier reports which could reach up to half a meg. Although less fancy the new reports will actually fit in your mail box.

On a further note, It's been 3 months since I got the job as Typhoon Squadron commander hehehe.....

TC News/BG News/Wing News

*Our BGCOM AD Mell Kerrigan is away on leave for his operation. He'll be back in a week or two. Good luck Mell!

*Former ISD Relentless COM BubbaX also aka SpamG0D is the new Wing X Wing Commander! Welcome to the Chal! I'm confident that this arrival will benefit the wing immensely. Bubba combined with Thunder, will be an unbeatable force when it'll come to spamming.

*Security Officer position is open for apps. Send your apps to the FC (fc@emperorshammer.org) and XO (xo@emperorshammer.org)

*Something about the Star Wars celebration registration: On Monday, Sept. 27, Star Wars fans officially can get their plans underway for Celebration III, the event that promises to be the most electrifying Star Wars extravaganza ever. Tickets for the 4-day festival, slated for April 21 - 24, 2005 in Indianapolis, are scheduled to go on sale at approximately 12 noon PDT at starwarscelebration.com. Reservations for hotels in Indianapolis for Celebration III also will be available starting September 27, exclusively for those who purchase tickets for the event. Scheduled just four weeks before the worldwide premiere of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith, Celebration III has been eagerly anticipated by fans since Celebration II entertained more than 26,000 in May, 2002. Celebration III promises to be even more exciting, with more guests, more activities, and more events spread over the entire Indiana Convention Centre -- over half a million square feet of Star Wars!
Interesting...too bad I'm no way close to Indianapolis...

*The OPS has given some guidelines for medal recommendations: All MSE medals MUST include quantatative data, such as battles completed, multiplayer activity, IWATS completed, communications activity, and medals awarded to the pilot in that month. I will no longer approve a MSE medal if it doesn't include the medals awarded to the pilot that month and at least the general purpose of that medal being awarded. I want to cut down on double-awarding. Please note that what I'm specifically looking for are competition medals, web design medals, and things along those lines. Competition numbers must be included with every Iron Star medal recommendations. There are no exceptions to this rule. No merit medal may be awarded for any competition. Commendations of Bravery are to be awarded immediately after a pilot completes 30 missions. Any pilot who does so may request their CMDR to award this medal. This is not out of line, it's just making your CMDR aware that you have completed the required number of missions.
Boy oh boy :(

Dirty's Final Thoughts

Keep in contact and stay active!
Once more recruitment remains a priority (you'll be rewarded for it). Phoon is low on pilots, we need more people. You might of noticed that the wing is down to 25 members and therefore need to get new members in fast.
Congrats with your awards Ponda!
