First
off, we have two new members of the fleet this week. Welcome to LT Syntroth
joining us, returning from the Unknown Regions and LT Steve Dermody joining us from PLT Daedalus. LT Dermody is
quite the student and, in an odd clerical turn of events, was actually
promoted to LT while still on Daedalus shortly before joining the fleet. I’m not sure GN
Frown would be terribly happy, but it works! The
other big news is Imperial Storm about to begin on Jan 13th! Be ready to fly once the engagements start,
which should take at least 4 turns (8 days), so my estimate is there cannot
be any engagements before that based on the map size, but at that point we will
need many pilots in both MP or SP depending on what happens on the map. I
have already received a few submissions for TCoP and TCPL, which is
great. There is lots of time left, so
get those submissions in! Detailed
dates and mission assignments are below.
Also, after a couple questions, in TCPL,
there will be no handicap for round 1 because no one has an average,
yet. The round one winner will be
determined only be “scratch” (no handicap added) score. All subsequent rounds will be handicapped. Finally,
it is MSE time again. I want all MSE’s
on my desk by the 10th, so CMDRs get yours to your COMs
immediately! |

TIE Corps on Patrol 2018: Rules: It’s a new year, so this will change a
little. Every TWO weeks, there will be
a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT,
XWA) assigned. Pilots will fly each
mission that they choose and BSF the battles to the TC database and forward
the BSF email to Pete Mitchell. If the
pilot has earned a high score, BSF it and
also send the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF is
not approved in time. BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm
Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London one every other Monday starting January
15. Each week the pilot with the highest
score in each platform will earn 4 points.
The next highest score will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other
submissions will earn 1. If the
winning pilot in a platform also earned a high score, that pilot will earn 5
points for that platform. Points will accumulate
for the week, month, and year for more awards. Awards: Annual: IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year.
(at least 5 participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4
participants) Monthly: IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants). Weekly: IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
total points for the week (at least 3 participants). IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
in each platform (at least 2 participants). The first missions assigned are: TIE-Free 295:
Starfighter Histories: TIE Defender XvT-Free 224:
MTT11: Interdiction TIE Corps Pilot League 2018: Rules: This competition is similar
to TIE Corps on patrol, but it is handicapped to make it accessible to
more pilots. Every TWO weeks, there
will be a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT, XWA) assigned.
Pilots will fly each mission that they choose and BSF the battles to
the TC database and forward the BSF email to Pete Mitchell. If the pilot has earned a high score, BSF
it and also send the pilot
file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF is not approved in time. BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm
Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London one every other Monday starting January
22. Each week the pilot with the highest
handicap score (expressed as a % of the high score) in each platform will
earn 4 points. The next highest score
will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other submissions will earn 1. If the winning pilot in a platform also
beat the high score (without the handicap added), that pilot will earn 5
points for that platform. It is
possible for a pilot to be the only pilot to beat the high score, and not win
that platform. If
for example, pilot A got 90% of the high score and has a 25% handicap for a
total of 115%, and pilot B got 105% of the existing HS (and earned a new HS)
with a handicap of 5% for a total of 110%, Pilot A would win the platform for
the week for 4 points and pilot 3 would only earn 3 points. Points
will accumulate for the week, month, and year for more awards. Handicaps will be calculated as follows: The average score in the platform as a
percent of the high scores will be calculated as an
average of all scores on that platform since the beginning of the League (avg). The handicap will be
calculated as the difference between the average and 100%. For example, if a pilot’s average score in
TIE is 75% of the HS, his handicap will be 100%-75%=25%. If a pilot then scored 85,000 pts on a
mission with an existing HS of 100,000 points, his handicap score would be
85% + 25% = 110%. *The first round any pilot flies in any
platform will not have a handicap added as the pilot will not have an average. Therefore, the first round, there are no
handicaps, only scratch scores. Awards: Annual: IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year.
(at least 5 participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4
participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd most improved averages over the year in each platform (at
least 4 participants, must have flown at least 10 missions) Monthly: IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants). Weekly: IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
total points for the week (at least 3 participants). IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
in each platform (at least 2 participants). The first missions assigned are: TIE-Free 1: Ja24
