TAC Report # 72 (2003-01-17)

This report was submitted by AD Marcin Szydlowski


Skipping Missions!!!
     Remember people. Using unlimited waves IS allowed. Skipping missions IS NOT. So do not do it. Also remember that in order to skip mission in TIE, you have to edit pilot file what is violation of acticle 407. I am pretty sure you are aware of consequences. So do not skip.

Tactical Office Poll #1
     This poll can be found here. Go and vote. So far we had 27 voted. Majority of people think TAC is doind good/great job. Thanks. I will do my best.

Subgroup battles
     I've noticed that we have only TC,IW and DB battles. Also we have only one ID. And some subgroups like HF or ID or even Senate, are great place to make battles. I'm going to make first BoP-ID myself. I would like to see some more ID battles, also some from Senate and HF. CD is another great place.
     But remember about TAC rule. In order to get SG battle approved by TAC, you must email SGCOM or SG Tactical authority with your plotline and get their approval. Also, while submitting missions/battle to TAC, cc this authority. I hope that is understood.

Xunami Wings!!!
     Phase 2 ended with only 3 submissions. That's unfortunate but I can understand there was not enough time to make many battles. Don't worry, next time you will have much more time. Results will be announced this week.


Tactical Office Person of the Week:
     This week I've selected LC Frodo, as Person of the Week. As recommended by TCC:XvT:
For this week I'll recommend LC Frodo, his reports are always in the correct form, he did the most beta-testings on hard, activity that sometimes costsĀ a lot of time. He is often on IRC, so i can talk to him about assignments and have it easier to coordinate it.
     Great job Frodo. You have earned 1 point. I remind all TCCs to send their PotW recomendations.

New competitions.
     There is still Baner and Song competitions on now. Also I've sent one more for approval. Tactical Office Person of the Week. I have also few ideas for competitions, and they will be used one after one.      Meantime I've received some great banner submissions, but you can still win this comp. Also, there was only one Song submission, so great chance to get good medal there.      Also, I'm looking for some tallented graphic dudes, to make some backgrounds for Tactical Office webpages. If anyone is interested working for me, drop me an email. I am willing to offer TACA position for person very good with graphics. Also, remember to cc my CA, while mailing me.

Project "Exterminator" update:
     No changes this week, because we are busy with other projects. Most of stuff is corrected. There are many invalid TIE bugs.

Cheating cases:
     There were no new cases this week, however I'm observing few pilots. I will probably have first results soon. Remember, if you cheat better mail me and confess before I will find you. Noone will escape. And one note to people who use Hold Steady in TIE ( making enemy ships all hold steady ). Yes, I know how to catch it, if you think it's impossible to catch, expect mail from me soon.

Rate the battles you fly:
     When you complete mission/battle rate it. Soon there will be competition for those who write good reviews. Also, I won't tolerate any personal wars. If you don't like the creator, don't even try to lower rating of every good battle. That will only result in your HCI case. So be good :)

Bug reports:
     I think you should understand what is bug:

  • Ships with Hold Steady order (unless stated in mission it's correct, of ship is wreck, etc)
  • Ships crashing and ramming one into another
  • Capital ships with fighter orders
  • Grammar errors
  • Swearing (this is also violation of CoCs)
     If you are not sure, if something is a bug or not, mail me and ask a question. Also when you are flying on invul, or using unlimited warheads/waves, you are not allowed to post bug report. If you can't complete mission turn it off and try again. And then, if there is still bug, report it.

Final word:
     My office is always open, and you can find me on IRC. Don't hesitate to ask or mail me. Visit Tactical channel #tac and ask question there. Cya next week
