Thunder Squadron PatchSQUADRON NEWSThunder Squadron Patch
Welcome Thunder Pilots to this weeks report!

First week of Trivia has come to a close. We had about a ? of the squadron participating. Not bad for a first go. However, LCM Kongo dominated. Let us now see if he can remain King of the hill. Week 49 starts on Monday. For LCM Kongo’s trivia skill he is awarded the Iron Star with bronze ribbon. Congratulations are in order. Your next assignment for TIES on tour is TIE-TC Free 2. Knock it out and get it back to me.


Thunder Squadron PatchCOMPETITIONS AND EVENTSThunder Squadron Patch
Wake me up when November ends

This is the big Challenge wide competition of the year. Every week we will play 4 games: Flying (Single player and Multiplayer), Movie quote trivia, Image trivia and an online game. The trivia will be played via the Timed Events option on the TC website. Screenshots for Multiplayer and online games need to be emailed to me, and for the Single player competition you can simply forward me the BSF email. Each week starts at the release of my COM report on Sunday, and ends the next Saturday at midnight CET. There is also a 5th game: Fiction. Each pilot can submit upto 3 fictions to participate, but only one fiction will be taken into consideration for the rankings (unless the total of fictions received is less than 5). For every game, each week the top 10 pilots will be awarded points: from 1st to 10th place you will earn 20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 points. With exception to the Fiction, which will only yield points at the end of the month, and for the top 5 fictions: 20, 15, 10, 5, 3 points.

Each week, every game will see its winner, with the top 2 pilots for that week earning Iron Stars (Silver and Bronze Wings/Ribbons). At the end of the competition, pilot scores will be tallied per game over all 4 weeks and the top 3 pilots win (Gold/Silver/Bronze Wings/Ribbons). The scores for each pilot will also be tallied over all submissions during the entire month, with another (Gold/Silver/Bronze Wings/Ribbons) up for grabs. There's an extra medal to be had if a single pilot manages to grab the win in 2 games, and one if a pilot manages to grab the win in 3 games. As an extra bonus, there's two more medals available: the pilot who has the highest score wins his Commander and IS-SR, while the squadrons that accumulates most points over all pilots wins its Commander an IS-GR.

Keep up the work Thunder and don’t forget to participate in the WC comp. That was not a suggestion! We are last in the standings. If we stay that way someone is flying their TIE without a helmet. In fact the beatings will start if we don’t at least beat one other squadron!!!!!
