Changes, changes and once again changes. My RL takes more and more of my time. Fortunatelly I have kick ass staff, outstanding CA and still enough time to watch over them :) TAC is real slacker, last few days but fear not. I process High Scores, I add new battles to queue, I release battles, so it's pretty ok.
Mission Creation Wars - Round 2
I am going to send plotlines to people, just waiting for my CA to write those plotlines (damn lack of time). Also
I will try to release MCW Round 1 battles very soon (Monday?). So you will have something to fly. Meantime,
start you mission editors and prepare for plotlines. The war is coming!
TAC3K countdown!
TAC2,8k is here. Now we need to hit TAC2,9k We need only 196 to reach TAC3K! Good work Tactical Staff, keep it up!
TCC:TIE resigned, new TCC:TIE selected
Mark Schueler resigned from the position of TCC:TIE due to computer problems. He was good TCC, with many
problems lately. Without any hesitation, I've decided to appoint LC Philo as replacement. He is experienced
member of TIE staff and I am sure he will do great job leading team of testers and engineers. Congrats Philo.
Golden Tug Awards - 2003 Edition!
Started by HA Striker, 1 year ago, GTAs will be continued by me, however it will be real Oscar style. So expect
winners announced by EH celebrities (I hope GA Ronin will find time to join IRC and announce best mission designer
and SA Astatine will announce best battle). At the moment, I am compiling list of battles, created in 2002.
This list should be published very soon, I will try to attach it to next TAC report :)

Cheating cases:
There are some questionable pilot files on my list, and I am investigating them now together with my CA. We
should come up with results shortly. We are also waiting for HCI to give verdict in Kat's case.
Final word:
My office is always open. I don't do any businnes on IRC, but I ALWAYS reply to questions and suggestions. What
do I mean by EH bussiness. Here's example: "Mike, please award me my mission MoT-rh", and other things like that.
If you have question and I am not available, try joining #tac and ask there or use mail. Ultimately you can use
Mission Creation Forum :)
