Wing XIII Report #5 - 02.01.03



Pilot's Lounge

Space, the final frontier... These are the voyages... No, no, that won't do...
It was the dawn of the eigth year of... No, no...
People ask, where do I get my ideas... Hmm, no...
A short time ago, on a computer in the basement... Bah, skip it.

Khadgar strolled into the Grey Wolf cantina.
Having an empty feel about it, he strolled to the bar stool.
"How's business?" he said to the man tending bar.
"Well, everyone has left to spend time around the flight simulators... It's rather lonely around here."
Khadgar nodded and proceeded to the simulator room.
Most of the simulators were occupied, and Khadgar heard a fimilar voice eminiating from near one of the simulators.
"Bah, it's not bad! Even Khadgar could fly that!" the voice said aloud.
Recognizing the voice, Khadgar strolled over to the simulator.
"Oh, hello, Khadgar," the man said, noticing him.
"Brucmack!" Khadgar said, "I thought you'd retired?"
"Indeed, I had, but my fighter needs a good workout, so I'll be staying here."


Letters from the Cardinal...

Adapted from Monty Python's Holy Grail...

Voice over: Meanwhile, VA Darksaber, not more than a swallow's flight away, had discovered something.

Pilots: SC!
Darksaber: Who are you?
Pilot: We are the Pilots who say... SC!
Darksaber: No! Not the pilots who say "SC"!
Pilot: The same.
Other Pilot: Who are we?
Pilot: We are the keepers of the sacred words: SC, Ping, and Nee-LoC!
Other Pilot: Nee-LoC!
Darksaber: Those who hear them seldom live to tell the tale!
Pilots: The pilots who say SC demand... a sacrifice!
Darksaber: Pilots of SC, we are but simple travelers who seek the officer who lives beyond these woods.
Pilot: SC! SC! SC! SC! SC! SC! SC! SC! SC!
Darksaber: No! Noooo! Aaaugh! No!
Pilot: We shall say "SC" to you... if you do not appease us.
Darksaber: Well what is it you want?
Pilot: We want... An update!
Darksaber: A WHAT?
Pilot: SC! SC! SC! SC!
Darksaber: No! No! Please, please, no more! I will update it again!

Wing Commander's Office

It's been another highly active week for Wing XIII. Amid avid flying in both Multiplayer and Single Player, we've also gotten some new members into the Wing! It has been a quite a month for the Wing, and I'm sure some good MSE medals will be doled out in January.

Just a reminder to recount your points after the SC ends, and keep up the good work!

That's all this week!
