Thunder Weekly Squadron Report #87

INTRO

We have to choose our official squadron color, if you have an idea for a color send them to me.
So far I have only gotten one suggestion, but I want MORE. So don't be lazy and send me your suggestion!

Also there is a new competition brewing, so be ready ;)

As a reminder: send your Weekly report to your Flight leader and for Ice and Ryuu directly to me.
I'm not getting them from all the members so please send them, thanks

COMPETITIONS AND ORDERS

1. Off The Record! You are a journalist assigned the task of writing an article about the recent appointment of Ast to FC. The article has to be related to the event in some way. Submissions go to
xo@emperorshammer.org, subject line of "Off the Record." Deadline is Jan. 31. If interested, I highly encourage you to take a look at the full details, at http://www.ehtiecorps.org/xo/comps/offtherecord.htm

2. Boss the COM around! An unofficial comp, but if you can get a total of 5 wing members to "sign" a "petition" to get Stuart to do a certain activity (IE, fly 10 battles, create a battle, make up 40 trivia
questions, etc.), he'll do it!

3. Wing X Propaganda Comp! The Challenge site ( http://isdchallenge.tcbg.net/ ) has a link for "About," where prospective pilots can read the History of the Challenge. Currently, it's blank, with the filler text and graphic that was put up when the site was created. For this comp, you are to write a form of Propaganda to be put on this page. In under 500 words, write something that will
convince prospective drunken Wing X-ers to join up! Winner will receive a IS-SR, and their piece will be used on the site. Runner up gets a IS-BR. Any questions, feel free to ask 'em. Submissions go to
me at coranel@isdchallenge.tcbg.net, while CC'ing your CMDR. Comp runs all month long. Got till Jan. 31 to get them in!


Cyric wants each Squadron to choose an official color for your squads. When you get one, email your choice to Stuart (he'd like the HTML color code for it too, if possible).

Casino competition http://sco.emperorshammer.net/casino/
A rogue Dark Jedi gets hold of an Astromech containing valuable EHBL data at a transfer involving the ISDII Relentless. The Command Staff orders the Relentless and its Battle Group to hunt the Astromech down and retreive it before it falls into New Republic hands.


More competitions can be found here: http://www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/

-Star Wars Galaxies
This still isn't being done! While playing SWG is counted as activity, I would like to see more "tangible" forms of activity. So, when submitting "Played SWG" as a weekly activity, please also include a short summary of what sorts of adventures your SWG character had that week. It can be a short paragraph or you can get creative and turn it into a polished story, but I want to see something to show off when considering activity medals. ;)

-Messageboard
Visit our message board often. It is the best place to get to know the rest of the squadron.

-Battleboard
Thanks to Beef we all remember the Battleboard. It is an excellent chart that shows us which battles which pilots should fly in order to earn us a citation. A squadron is awarded a citation for each battle that half of its members have flown. So if you suddenly feel a hankering for some flying (which you should), pop over to this link and fly something that will earn us another citation! We currently have 30. http://www.gysnet.com/index.php?wing=10&squad=1

-Recruitment
Thunder isn’t full and neither is the wing or the club. Please, contact any people you know that are interested in Star Wars and tell them of our great club. This also means setting a good example and generally being a gentleman or lady when on message boards, game servers, or anywhere else where you are representing the EH. Behaving badly in public smears our image and deters recruits.

NEWS
- Fiction competition coming up, further detail next week.

-Jeff's New Wargame
From his comfy jacuzzi aboard the reserves frigate, recent Thunderinian Jeff Domm is firing up a new wargame. He's still looking for participants. There's a website with all the rules ( http://www.geocities.com/wade_sci-f12/diplomacy/warlord.html ) and a thread in the Wing message board ( http://www.ehnet.org/mb/viewtopic.php?t=4048 ).
