This report was submitted by COL Gen Es'mith


Wing I Weekly Report #2

Competitions
A. Wing I has a pending competition against Wing II!
Major Mike will fill us in with the details as the deadline approaches.

B. Well I’m back on line, so I challenge you all to an Unofficial Wing Commander vs the Wing
comp. You choose the free mission. I am down two (by corrupt pilot files on my part, so I have
no idea if I even came close, but probably not.).

Current Standings
Flown - 2 Remaining: 40?
Results -: W - 0 L - 2 TIE - 0

C. Pending Free Mission comp vs Hope Wing of the Rebel Squadrons.
What’s the status of the TIE Free Mission, Argon?

=======================================
1. Weekly Tidbits
DO not do anything to change the outcome of a battle that could in anyway be construed as
cheating! You will be prosecuted and demoted at the very best!
If you are confused as to what cheating is, check here:

=================================================
2. WING NEWS AND STATUS

A. MSE’s and Reports
I received most of this weeks squadron reports. Thank you! Please remember to get them to me
by Friday or Saturday as possible so that I can send out an informed Wing Commander’s report
on Sunday morning.

====================================
B. Communications
Due to my mix up and miss-send of the MSE, there will be no promotions or medals or
chocolate milk in your canteens this month. Since it was my screw-up though, I will have
dancing girls in the Cantina, and special entertainment for LCM Jennif Es’mith.

3. Wing/Squadron Communications.
I’ve got an open IM policy. If you see me online, you can chat with me.
I’m at grvsmith for AIM, grvsmith@hotmail for MSM, Frideger2001 for Yahoo Messenger, and
I do have ICQ, but rarely use, and will “”“”re re re”“” download mIRC and ask for my password
again (I hate computer crashes....).

At this time I have no set wing meeting and do not know of set squadron meetings on IRC.


4. SOVEREIGN NEWS/TC/EH News.
The TC site crashed for a while this week:
Site status update - SA Astatine
I've gone through and fixed up all the code-related issues (I think). However, there may still be
some bugs hiding somewhere. If you do run into an error, the information in the previous news
posting still applies.

The site problems - SA Astatine
About 12 hours ago, the server hosting the TIE Corps site experienced a hardware failure. As
things in IT tend to snowball, there was an issue with the backups. Fortunately, the database is
hosted on a totally seperate machine and all the files been restored. On the down side, there is an
error with the code responsible for talking to the database. This code will give an error similar to
this:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Named Pipes]SQL Server does not exist or access
denied.
/rosters/combatratings.asp, line 83

In addition, to this, there is another main error message, which is relating to permissions being
denied. I am working as fast as I can to fix these errors. If you encounter an error, do not come
on IRC or email me with "it doesn't work!". This wastes my time as it could be literally hundreds
of possible things making it "not work". Instead, be useful and include the following items:
- The exact error message you got
- The URL of the page you were accessing
What you were doing prior to the error coming up

This information allows me to directly target which file could be the problem (and there's
thousands on here). Hopefully, I'll have the site up and running in the next few hours.


5. WING I STANDING ORDERS.
A. Communications
i. All members are required to maintain contact with their assigned unit in the TIE Corps with at
least ONE email per month. (This is paraphrased from the TIE Corps Rules and Regulations).
ii. All official communications opening with the term and ending with the full
ID/signature line require a response. This is mandatory on a one link up manner. FL respond to
CMDR/FL, CMDR respond to WC, etc.
iii. The Wing I egroup mailing list is an official resource for orders and news of the wing.
However, until this order is rescinded it is also to be used for fun and games. Those that have
problem with the amount of mail that this generates are encouraged to switch their mailing
preference to either daily digest or read on the web.
(DO NOT USE THE egroup TO RESPOND TO OFFICIAL MAIL, REPLY TO THE SENDER!)
iiii. All members of the wing are encouraged (not required) to get AIM, Yahoo Messenger,
MSM, ICQ or mIRC. I have all of these and shall show up now and then on mIRC, but
unfortunately my RL job entails that I shall not be able to make meetings except on a biweekly
basis.

B. Flight Duties
i. At this time, pilots are encouraged to participate in all open competitions and also to do at
least one independent TIE Free Mission a month. ((Again, this is not required.))

C. Reporting Duties.
i. Squadron Commanders are required to submit weekly reports no later than Sunday morning at
11:59am Eastern Standard Time.
ii. Squadron Commanders are required to submit Monthly Squadron Evaluations no later than
the last day of each calendar month.
