Rear Admiral Frodo March reporting for the Emperor's Hammer Tactical Office on 01/28/05, report #170.

 

Tactical Officer's Opening Statement

 

Welcome to the fifth TAC report from RA Frodo March.  This week was quite eventful, we finished it off with a few battle releases.  Less people have been skipping missions, good, and we're hacking at all the bugs on the mission compendium!

 

At this rate the XWA bugs will be a thing of the past in a few days and only one XW bug remains.

 

Tactical Announcements

-There are three new entries in the Mission Compendium! Go check out XWA Free 116, XvT TC 107 and BoP TC 24! wooo!

 

-Operation Ant Eater's homepage is updated: The public version can be found here: http://servelarge.no-ip.com/~frothyt/opae.html  To date, 11 XWA Bugs have been corrected, and 3 are assigned and will be corrected soon. Aswell as 2 X-wing bugs that have been removed.

 

-TAC DB 2.0 is up and running, we have quite a few assignements on it already! However I'd like you all to concentrate on the ones on TAC DB 1 first...So we can empty the damn thing.

 

-After much thinking I have decided to appoint MAJ Chris Cox as the new, old, TCC:XvT.  He now has to live up to the last TCC:XvT, and we're sure he'll do fine.

 

-Casino comp update: TIE TC 221, XvT TC 106 and XWA TC 39 are the casino comp battles! Fly them, the high scores will be processed this February 1st.

 

-I am still looking for XWA/TIE/XvT/BoP/SWGB Staff, applications are to be sent to me at fcjt914@yahoo.ca and my CA at stelerain@comcast.net

 

Tactical Projects

 

-Operation Ant-Eater: This is a lot like Project phoenix, the TAC staff will set out to destroy all bugs in the Mission Compendium! We now have some progress, more details here: http://servelarge.no-ip.com/~frothyt/opae.html

 

-Frodo's Quest for more Missions!: This is my own personal quest to get mission creators to create more, We have gotten quite a few submittions, I'm going to count and see who gets the medals for the month of January.

 

Tasks from the FC

 

-More missions and faster turnaround in relation to testing: My quest for more missions is still under way.

 

-Better attitude/interaction with the membership regarding the EHBL and in general: Pilots come first! I'm willing to do anything to make your life easier as long as you are willing to help me help you.  Anything TAC related that you need to discuss will be happily handed by me or my CA.

 

-More support relating to new platforms (Jedi outcast academy, SWGB): We have a few SWGB battles in progress, anybody interested in JA, or JO or SWGB can contact myself right away.  Support is important and we need some competent staff for these new platforms.  Anybody interested in a Mission Creation course for these platforms can contact me immediately and I'll make sure you get all the support you need to get me my support.

 

-Coordinating with training office to set up new training resources for new platforms: hehe, the second we get a TO...BAM!

 

-Restart Project Pheonix and fix any bugs in the mission compendium: Operation "ant-eater" is under way! 

 

-Reform the TAC staff from a corps of testers to mission creators: I'm just awaiting on something from my TACA for this one.

 

Competitions

 

-"Mission Creation Incentive": The pilot who submits the most battles to the TAC office in the month of January will be awarded an IS-PR, an IS-GR for second place and the same goes for February and March.  You must submit at least 3 battles, and the same goes with missions, except the award for top missions is IS-GR and you must build at least 5.  (Currently, FA Ender mBind leads with 9 battles, second place for January is still up for grabs).

 

-Pilot of the week competition! I don't receive alot of TCC reports these days *sigh*.  Anyway, this week is TCC:XWA General Master again! He's provided us with more final checks, good job Master!

 

Standings are: VA Stuart 1 week, COL Mike 1 week, GN Master 2 weeks.  Therefore, GN Master wins for the month of January! Congradulations! An IS-SR is awaiting you.

 

-Lets sing it!: My TACA will continue to run this, send the answers to him at pbmike@go2.pl and CC me at fcjt914@yahoo.ca the lyrics for this week are:

 

"I'm watching you
You watching me
its all to the gravy cuz its VIP
and everythang in here moving
belong to me"

Frothy's Corner

 

A smaller report this week, giving you guys a break from reading :P  At any rate, I hope all the TCCs remember that I will award a PC to the TCC who empty's his part of TAC DB 1.0 first! So snap to it TCCs. 

 

As for everybody else, have another excellent week, don't hesitate to post good valid bug reports and most importantly:

 

PAR!
