Sigma Report # 0 (2000-12-04)

This report was submitted by CPT Artyis


Greetings, Sigma members and honorably guest an welcome to eleventh Sigma
Weekly Meeting.
Firstly I need to apologize for a one-day delay caused by RL obligations. In
fact I didn't forced myself to make it on Sunday (sacrificing really
important things) knowing that the squadron results for Squadron League
Quarter Finals are by Sunday midnight, what means they'd miss this Weekly
Report.
Secondly... Let's get started at last!

Squadron News:
- Sigma Squadron League Quarter Finals are in! (attached)

- Last Sunday we lost one of our pilots. Lieutenant Commander Obi-Kan
Kysiobi has been forced to move to Reserves. The 2-3 slot hasn't been opened
for long however and on Tuesday Sigma was at full strength once again!
Brothers, let's welcome our long-lasting friend Commander Thunder who
returned after a month of being a Reservist!

- The results of Border Wars have been announced! And here is it's
shortening:

3rd - CPT Astarosta/Kappa - 124 502 (awarded ISM)
2nd - CM Artyis/Sigma - 125 478! (awarded ISM)
1st - CM Roger Duncan - 136 707! (awarded PC!)

Congratulations, Brother! :) I'd also like to thank all of you, Brothers,
for participation!

- Captain Todbringer run the second Pod Racing Grand Prix race! This time
there were the winners!

* Duncan - won 43 c! (a bet on Cohneng!)
* Devlin - won 375 c! (a bet on Cohneng!)
* Regis - won 1125 c! (a bet on Cohneng!)
* Koriel - won... 3500 c! (a bet on order Cohneng, Urgefloggah, Coer!)

- Operation: Release the TIEs "Battle at Lyarna" results (mission flown: TIE
FREE #126) have been announced. Check a Squadron Status part of this record.


Fleet-wide news:
- Grand Admiral Ronin is the first member of the Fleet who earned the "Order
of the Vanguard - Sixth Echelon"!
- "Roster shortcuts
If you want to see your profile online, there's a new shortcut to it! Just
use your TIE Corps PIN instead of "www"! For example, my PIN is #691. So if
I wanted to look at my record, I would go to http://691.tiecorps.org/ Try it
with yours!" - it's working :)
"Also, if you want to look at a squadron roster, you can put the squadron
name then .squadron.tiecorps.org to take you right to the squadron's roster.
For example, if I wanted to look at Alpha squadron, I would go to
http://alpha.squadron.tiecorps.org and it would display Alpha Squadron's
roster." - FSE/SA Kawolski
- "Virtual URLs working again
Many of the Virtual Domain URLs that were on this homepage after moving the
domain away from M6 and LCO were deactivated. Recently, CrystalTech has
started supporting virtual URLs and now the homepage "shortcuts" have been
reactivated." - FSE/SA Kawolski
For example, http://admin.tiecorps.org/ now takes you straight to the
administration section. http://rosters.tiecorps.org/ will take you to the
roster section. A listing of working Virtual Domains will be listed in the
near future.
- "Star Wars Galaxies site opens
The Star Wars Galaxies (by Verant, creators of EverQuest) site has opened at
http://www.starwarsgalaxies.com." - FSE/SA Kawolski

Sigma Squadron Status:

- Squadron League Quarter Finals are over. We've been able to achieve a 100%
participation ratio once again!
Due to a bug in a mission however no-one of us achieved both secondary and
bonus goals, what means that no-one of us had a chance to beat a high-score.
Well, I hope we'll get into Semi Finals anyway.

Here's shortening. Attached, full results you'll find.

- BattleCry Competition
"Competition Rules
Individual Pilots:
There are three platforms for you to take part in this month, TIE Fighter,
X-Wing Vs TIE Fighter, and X-Wing Alliance. For each platform, League Tables
will be made showing who placed where depending on the score.
If you come 1st in any platform, you will win a Bronze Scroll (BS), 2nd
place will get a Palpatine Crescent (PC), and 3rd Will be awarded an
Imperial Security Medal (ISM).
You are not limited to how many platforms you take part in.

Squadrons Participation:
Awards will be given to the top contending TC squadron. This will be decided
by how many pilots take part and how many platforms they take part in. If
that is a draw, it will then be decided by the pilots placing in the League
Tables.
Imperial Security Medals (ISM) will be awarded to all of the pilots who flew
for the winning squadron. The squadron will also be highly shown off in
these pages as being the best of the best of the best.

Note that participation will have to be great for not just one platform, but
all of them. You don't have to get amazing scores, but you do have to take
part. I also know that it is biased towards larger squadrons, but that
should get you recruiting rather than complaining."

TIE: FREE-TIE #135; Lightsaber Emancipation (Total 135,444 CM Lord
Linkan)
XvT: FREE-XvT #35; Strike on Facility (Total 107,080 CM Jargon Grim)
