Wing X Report #8 (5.March.02)

NEWS:

Challenge Recruitment Programme
In our infinite wisdom, Locke and I have started up a new Challenge Recruitment Programme. This is being run by our very own LCM Dex d'Alcobia from Thunder, and ably aided and abetted by recruitment officers ship-wide. Current officers are:
Thunder / Wing X: LCM Dex d'Alcobia
Tornado: CM Master
Tempest: CM Kaneda Pellail
Inferno: LCM Raxell
Typhoon: TBA
Even if you're not an official recruitment officer, this doesn't stop you getting stuck in and recruiting people. If you want more information on recruiting, please talk to Dex!

Wing X Wargame
Has started but nothing's happening yet... watch this space!

BG Multiplayer Training Nights
Come along to #ehcoc at 10pm GMT on Tuesdays and fly! We had a mixed response last week, so I'd like to see a few more peeps along in future please. :D

New Trivia Competition:
Just for fun, we're still playing trivia! Thanks muchly to CM Dark Viper who is moderating this for me. Trivia will be sent out for this week as soon as I receive it...!, but I'll explain the rules in brief here for you all as well:
The Pilot with most correct answers will receive 3 points, the second 2 and the third 1. When two pilots have the same number of correct answers the one who submitted first will get the point.



At the end of the month the pilot with most points will receive an IS-SR, the runner-up an IS-BR. The third in line will get an extra point for the next month’s contest.

WC RECOMMENDED ACTIVITIES:

IWATS:
http://www.imperialacademy.org/ - a great place to improve your knowledge! Take courses in HTML, mission design, tactics, and ASP!

Battle Reviews:
So you flew the mission/battle? Why not write a review to help out mission designers and fliers? It doesn't have to be long, just a few lines - and even better it gets the Wing some great exposure!

Recruit:
Don't make me beg!

Challenge News Network:
Start writing your submissions, making your missions, and priming up those vats of chalquila! C.N.N. is go for March! Everything Challenge related accepted! More details on this as and when. ;)
