COO Report#1

20 December, 2003

:: [ From The Vice Admiral ] ::

The Combat Operations Officer has been a cursed position for as long as I can remember. It has taken the most talented officers in the Tie Corps and turned them into mediocre Imperial Advisors. The Office is a black hole that sucks any energy and talent from living beings that attempt to enter it.

And on that Note, I have been selected as your new Combat Operations Officer! I am Vice Admiral Khameir Sarin, former Commodore of the ISD Grey Wolf and Former ASF Avenger Elite Squadron CMDR. Before listing my plans and goals for the Combat Operations Office, I would like to thank Grand Admiral Ronin and Sector Admiral Astatine for selecting me as the new COO. I would also like to thank FA Marcin Szydlowski, FA Cyric, HA Patel, and GN Kaerner on granting me recommendations. Fleet Admiral Cyric was instrumental in my decision to apply for COO and his letter of recommendation was the decisive point in helping me gain the job. Thanks Cyric!

I would certainly be commiting a terrible error if I did not also thank my former ship, the ISD Grey Wolf. The Grey Wolf has proven to me that the Tie Corps and the EH is a club that has great benefits to its membership. The effort of the Grey Wolf over the last five months has been spectacular and their work to recruit 60 pilots is an exceptional feat. I thank them for their hard work, the good times we had, and will miss them all.

And Now My Plans:

Combat Operations Office Mission Statement:
The Combat Operations Officer is responsible for creating, organizing, supervising, awarding, and promoting all multiplayer gaming in the Tie Corps and beyond. The minimum duty of the office is to provide a multiplayer gaming experience for every member of the Emperor’s Hammer that desires this form of entertainment. I will always be open for conversation, idea sharing, and complaint deflection on mIRC, Email, and any other form of online communication.

Rebuilding the COO Office:
I have selected a large set of tasks that I believe are essential in creating a better Combat Operations Office. I am listing these goals in public so that the Fleet can observe my progress and activity. I believe that Imperial Advisor’s and CS should be held to an activity standard, and making my projects open to the public will allow the general membership the opportunity to see if I am actually doing any work. My Project Goals are the following:

  • Begin processing all missing Legion of Combat Medals. If you are missing LoCs from your profile, email myself and your multiplayer opponent with the score and winner of your match. I will award these individual LoCs as they arrive. I am currently waiting on all stored scores that are on the #EHCOC bot and all outstanding Week of War Victories. I will award these immediately upon receipt.
  • The Combat Operations Staff is going to be reorganized and reselected. I am going to open positions for Combat Operations Office Assistants in the following areas: 1. #EHCOC assistant 2. Week of War Assistant 3. Website Design Assistant 4. Bot Assistant. I am not selecting applications on any of these positions.
  • All Competitions on the mIRC channel #EHCOC will remain closed for the following week. I am immediately re-instating the policy of having a human host at all competitions. The Days of 24/7 Automated BOT CRAP are over. The BOTS are simply unreliable and confusing/annoying for the general membership. As of now, I am accepting applications for Competitions Hosts. All applications should include name/pin of primary and alternate hosts, competition name, and eastern standard time zone time of the competition.
  • Begin work with the current #EHCOC BOT owner on a new BOT that handles the few administrative tasks that human HOSTS cannot.
  • Re-Design the current and very poor COO Website. The New COO website will become the END ALL source of Multiplayer Gaming in the TIE CORPS. The website will contain 1. Clear and Defined MP rules 2. User Guide for multiplayer gaming in #EHCOC 3. User Guide for Multiplayer gaming on Battlestats/The Zone 4. A Newb FAQ Section on Multiplayer Gaming 5. Section Listing the Heroes of Multiplayer Gaming in the EH.
  • Reopen the EH XWA and XVT Ladders and award LoCs for matches. I will begin work on a new ladder system and website immediately and hope to have it in place by January. The Ladder will come with detailed rules so that we can avoid the problems that the last Ladder had.
  • Begin work with the WO and FO to create a New XWA Skirmish MP competition. The War Game Skirmishes have been the highlights of Imperial Storms. Our goal is to open a new competition that will grant LoCs for MP skirmish victories.
  • Begin discussions with the Training Officer on the creation of a Multiplayer IWATS course. This course is long overdue and is an obvious choice to help members learn about Multiplayer Gaming in the Tie Corps.
  • Re-Open #EHCOC and all competitions to any other Subgroup that wishes to play and promote multiplayer play. I will be contacting the DB and Hammer’s Fist to see if they have any desire to return to #EHCOC.
  • Get new banners and logos for the office. The Old ones make me cringe.
  • Any time the COO is online, You may play MP and be awarded for it. Simply Join #EHCOC with your opponent, Private message me that you are playing, and then send me your scores. I will award these impromptu matches immediately upon receiving the results.
  • Implement a BEAT the COO monthly MP competition. The Pilot who beats me the most in One month will win something, a wooden spoon maybe.
  • Open the COO doors to all members with suggestions, tips , and Ideas.

Once again, I will not...repeat will not allow anyone to disturb me from the hours of 22:00 to 23:00 because that is the time I use my Stormies Assault Action Figures for "Tactical Deployment Exercises" on my giant Platform Daedalus playset.
