 AD Pete Mitchell walked down the corridor of the Challenge to his office.  He was freshly tanned and still had a bit of water in his ear from vacation.  He opened the door to his office and saw huge piles of paper, TP, and empty cans of Kappa Hype everywhere. 

 

He hung his head momentarily, “Vacation is always punished…”

Well, I am back from leave.  It seems like I’ve been gone forever for how much has happened and how much work is on my desk!  By the way, anticipate another 1-2 weeks of leave from roughly November 5 to 17 as I make my cross-country move for a new job.  Just a little move of 2600 miles…  After that, I should be around quite a while!

 

On a sad note, COL Horus Blackheart has decided to transfer to the reserves due to personal issues taking up his time.  That left Alpha Squadron’s CMDR position open.

 

But fear not!  Congratulations to our newest Squadron Commanders: CM Alejandro Araujo and COL Earnim Branet, who took over Alpha Squadron and Sin Squadron respectively. I look forward to seeing great things from you both!

 

Also, welcome LCM Jason Kotare back to the fleet after a good 18 years away!  I want to hear some stories of your adventures away from the Corps!

 

In TCOP and TCPL, we have some long awaited results.  In TCPL, I messed up the handicap calculations (I still can’t figure out what I did) for Round 18, and it did affect the results for XvT, so I posted the corrected results.

 

Finally, the one event I have been waiting for since rejoining the TC has happened!  Thank COL Impulse for making a new XWA patch installer so that we can finally fly the missions with patches.  I hope to try it before long.  I believe I have a high score waiting for me to finish the battle, because the patch didn’t work.

 

Finally, a big thanks to AD Plif for taking over during my leave!  A lot sure happened, but you handled it all very well!

Round 20 Assignments (Thanks to Plif for sending these out earlier):

TIE-free 246: Garrison Duty

XWA-free 111: Rescue Jay

 

BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London on Monday October 8.

 

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. 

 

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:

IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the year.  (at least 5 participants)

Round 20 Assignments:

TIE-Free 79: Deep Strike – Current HS = 70,759

XvT-Free 34: Stop and destroy a Rebel Fleet Current HS = 45,485

XWA-Free 39: Testing Sources – Current HS = 21,964

 

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 on October 15.

 

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. 

 

**I reserve the right to create a maximum handicap.  At this point, it is 75%. 

 

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).

Description:    

This is the easiest fiction competition ever! You only need to come up with an idea, not write a whole fiction out. Each week, please submit your idea for the short weekly fiction in the TCCOM report each week by Sunday at midnight GMT. Your idea can be as simple as a sentence or more of an outline. Do NOT write a whole fiction. The winning idea will be turned into a work of fiction by the TCCOM for his report. The author of the winning idea will win an IS-SR and 2 points towards the annual and monthly standings. The second best idea will earn 1 point towards the annual and monthly standings.

 

Ideas will be judged on criteria such as: originality, relevance to recent events and previous TCCOM fictions, ease of turning into a short fiction, and other whims of the TCCOM. Any ties for the monthly or annual totals will be broken by selecting the best idea over the time period as judged by 3 members of the TIE Corps Admiralty Board that are not part of the tie.

 

How to participate: Each week, email your idea directly to me.
