    Well, I am back. Yay me!

    Last week was great. The weather, the remains of an empire, and mnost of all the Italian icecream. And now we return to the real world. A real world in which I read the COM's report. I hope all Hammer pilots have read it. It seems we are in a serious depression when it comes to activity. We have two big Hammer-wide competitions going on, and participation in both of them is, to say the very least, dramatic. Come on folks, grab your flight sticks and do some flying! Even if it's just the missions for the competition and nothing else, it's still a good way to be active (and maybe even steal some emdals from me). Last week I was given a present of 7 medals because there was NO ONE but me and the COM flying them! Not that I mind the medals, they are FCHG points I can use to reach the final FCHG rank, but a little competition is fun too!

    Squadron wise, I would liike to thank MAJ Clark for once again covering the trivia in my absence. I even managed to put in 2 answers for this week, getting me a wee bit closer to a trivia incentive medal of my own. Only 176 more points to go... With my 1 point earned this week, this will take awhile. What's not good though is that my 1 point earned me 2nd place in the week! Where are you guys? The last two months we've seen the AWOL of THREE Delta pilots - I do hope SL Darth Kitten is the last of us to go due to inactivity. Reality however makes me fear he is not :(

    On to happier tidings: there's been a nice mission design strategy discussion going on on the mailing list in my absence, which is nice, and I made the quotes in the TCCOM's report!

    I managed to submit my TIE Golf hole just in time, thanks to the extension offered by the Warrior COM. The first two holes were fine, the second two holes were crap, I can't wait to see how I did on this one. I don't believe I'll be going through to the final though, but it's been fun. Thanks for hosting it, Frodo!

    We also saw last month's MSE medals arrive. Unfortunately not all my recommendations were approved, resulting in only 2 medals. I've seen better and I want to see better again!

    Competitions are the livelihood of this thing we do for fun. I encourage all of you to enter as many competitions as you want to/can. And just let me know about it! Don't forget to check out the website for more information.

    Delta squadron competitions

  • Delta's Weekly Trivia
    Each day of the week (Mon-Fri) you will receive an email with a trivia
    question, same as before. 3 pts for the first correct answer, 2 pts for
    second and 1 pt for 3rd. At the end of the week, the one with the
    most points wins the shiny. As usual, there's extra shinies available for
    accumulating set amounts of points.

  • Hammer Training Exercise #1
    SP, MP and fiction competition where you participate for yourself and for your squadron.
    weekly platform and monthly overall winners get the shinies.

  • Hammer's Pilot of the Month
    For every flown SP mission from the TC mission compendium and for every LoC earned each pilot receives 1 point
    for the HPotM competition. The pilot with most points at the end of the month is the ISD II Hammer's
    Pilot of the month and receives an IS-GW. Second will receive an IS-SW and third an IS-BW.
