REPORTING OFFICER: Colonel Zekk Terrik
DATE SUBMITTED: December 13 2020

I'm back everyone! I want to thank LCM Robert Hogan for holding the fort down while I was gone last weekend. He produced a very fine looking report. While I am disappointed that he put a stay on all executions, I intend to double my usual rate of executions in the coming days.

I still have a few stickers left if anyone wants one! Hopefully, we should begin seeing our shinies from November coming soon down the admiralty pipeline. Would be a shame if VA John T. Clark had to suffer an unfortunate airlock accident.

One thing that has been discussed in the channel is I'd really like to see the TIE Corps in Battle missions played more by all of us. I know many of you have discussed being more active with flying, so let's do it! It is entirely possible Sin can win the next iteration of TCiB.

• Make sure you catch episode 6 of The TIE Pilot Podcast at this link, where CM Jack Wynand, CM Bai'et Decol, and LCM Frenchie6 discuss Squadrons tactics, strategy, and everyone's first impressions. We will be recording Episode 7 with SA Maverick tonight!
• COL Mordechi Wolfe of Sin Squadron will begin a focus group on how to implement a salary system within the TIE Corps. Phase I has begun soon and we are deep into it! I'll keep you posted. Thank you to all that volunteered.
• LCM Robert Hogan has begun a project with GA Rapier to update the EH Systems Manual.
• Exciting news! Star Wars Squadrons has been patched to include the TIE Defender and B-Wing, and now allows for private lobbies! Let's start blowing each other up!

• The next Sin On Patrol mission is XvT Free 58, and the next TIE Golf mission is XvT Free 59. This will be due at 11:59 PM PST on December 27th.
• The next edition of Sin Trivia can be found here. This will begin Monday.
• The missions for the Sin Citation Bonanza are TIE TC 26, XvT TC 1, and XWA TC 11. Click on the competition link below to see how the competition is scored, it's more than just simple flying! The only submissions I received for this competition were from, well, myself. We only earned one more citation over the course of November. That's disappointing. Let's try to step it up guys.
• Congratulations to LCM Robert Hogan for winning last week's trivia with a perfect 5/5 in 29 seconds, nice work! This week's trivia is still going!

Here’s some fleet-wide competitions currently going on:

Star Wars Squadrons competitions:

TIE Corps Space Superiority 2020

• The goal of this competition is to award activity in Star Wars Squadrons Dogfight Mode
• During every month pilots will submit notations of the highest number of kills from submitting pilots with screenshot proof by email to the COO Office akin to TIE Corps on the MP Front 2020.
• At the end of the month participants will be awarded 5, 4, 3, 2 or one point (minimum) based on their placing. If less than five pilots participate the maximum monthly points awarded will be reduced to match this number.
• At the end of the year these points will be added up, rewarding the highest scoring pilot with an IS-PW, runner-up with an IS-GW and third with an IS-BW.
