Training Office Report #19
Admiral Keldorn Cochrane Reporting – 18th August 2003
The Apostasy competition is underway, advertising hence far has been rather low key but I have still received a number of sterling submissions from across the SubGroups. SubGroup Commanders, please advertise the selection of Training Office events available at http://www.emperorshammer.ca/comps_apostasy.html. The Competition will run until 12th September at 11:59pm BST (6:59pm EST).
Active Server Page (ASP) Professor is still open for applications, and will continue to be so until a competent candidate is found. Becoming a Professor is a very lucrative opportunity, and an excellent avenue to impress your superiors. There are also profitable bonuses when you become a fully-fledged member of our exclusive society…
DJK Dura and CPT Amadeo have been getting to grips with the gradual overhaul of the Academic NeXus. This will involve converting the pages to PHP and installing an efficient administration system for basic page updates. CPT Amadeo has also expressed interest in developing a ‘ProfFirst’ project (akin to the IO’s ‘SquadFirst’ service) that would certainly make it easier for Professors to complete their duties. More on these two ventures in the future.
TIE Corps
The number of competitions submitted from TIE Corps Officers has decreased of late. This is not a good thing; it’s the time of year when activity should be on the rise, and not providing an expansive variety of competitions for your members is a delegation of duty. To that end, I am sponsoring a small ‘Competition’s Competition’ open to all Commanding Officers in the TIE Corps (from Squadron Commander to Battlegroup Commander), the Officer who submits (and receives my approval) the most competitions within a period of one (1) month (18th August to 18 September) will receive the rare Iron Star Platinum Ribbon and a very large congratulatory pat-on-the-back from the Training Office.
Dark Brotherhood
Dark Jedi Knight Dura (‘waerloga’) has been appointed as Praetor to the Headmaster and Sith Battlemaster Daniel Goad has been selected as Magistrate to the Headmaster. Congratulations to both these individuals.
DJK Dura has already begun work on the replacement for the Krath Combat Centre, tentatively christened the ‘Duelling Institute on Eos’. This project is still very much in development – details can be found at http://www.emperorshammer.ca/die/ - but questions should be directed to DJK Dura at robd@fuzzystatic.com.
Regretfully, Sith Warrior Ace Hobbes has resigned from Pontiff of the Imperial and Enemy Starfighter Engineering & Technology Studies. The course is undergoing a complete revision based upon input from the Science Officer and thus the position is not open for applications. However, any individuals interested in helping with the rewrite (and earning a reward for their work) are welcome to contact me.
Applicants: There is a manual system in place for the processing of new members. Until otherwise notified, all applicants may submit both their Phase I and Phase II Apprentice Studies at their leisure, there is no need to await any confirmation other than the general ‘Welcome to the Dark Brotherhood’ e-mail (this e-mail explains the Apprentice Studies and provides the appropriate links). Questions should be addressed to me at hm@darkbrotherhood.org.
