    Welcomke to another weekly Wally Report!

    I'm happy this week that LCM Simomime has returned to the trivia (and took a victory right at the bat). And not only that, he also broke the first barrier for the Trivia Incentive by scoring 50 points, so that's an extra shinie for you! Unfortunately, COL Bubba's return was short-lived. We can do better, people!

    The new weekly competition, Dempsey's Weekly Riddles continues as this week it enters its third week. Riddle #2 was won by Delta's very own CPT Shado Fenn. That's two points for the Hammer, where are those Warrior pilots?

    Well, to say the truth, we know where they are. As you may have heard, COM Frodo has gone missing, so all the Warrior pilots are out partying all night.Of course, they *claim* to be looking for their COM, but we on the Hammer know better: they probably prefer their Wing Commander, Col G.H. Frown. And don't you try to deny it!

    Dempsey's Mobile Gaming Mania is still running, and with 12 days to go we have as many entries as last week: not enough. Get gaming people!

    To finish off this report, I leave myself wondering why there are not more entries in the COM's competitions. One free mission a week can't be too much can it? And all the people flying SC, why are you not submitting any screenshots? Of course, Col Pellaeon is exempt from this remark - he is doing just that! Kudos to you, sir!
     

      In the headlines this week

  • HA Frodo is missing
  • December MSEs have been delayed, get well soon, GN Polo!
     
  •   Riddle of the week

    My first year here I had a weekly joke. Last year, a weekly funny image. This year, a riddle. First pilot to send me the correct answer wins. Pilots are encouraged to send their answers to the entire mailing list, and so sending a reply is only useful if your answer hasn't been sent in yet! Each victory earns you an IS-BR. Unless it's a 5th victory, you then get a IS-SR. Unless it's a 10th victory, which gives you an IS-GR. A 25th victory will give you an IS-PR!

    This week's riddle: What starts and ends with an E, but has only a single letter?

    Last week's winner: CPT Shado Fenn

    Current standings: VA Woody, CPT Fenn: 1
