SIN SQUADRON WEEKLY REPORT #15

REPORTING CMDR: MAJ Plif DATE SUBMITTED: 24 August 2014 SQUADRON STATUS: Making more work for the, uh... junk dealers? Salvage ship vultures? We turn perfectly good spaceships into debris, that's all I know.

NEWS

The big news this week is that we have a new pilot! Please welcome SL Ragnarok to the team. July MSE awards were sent out this week, congratulations to: MAJ Wraith for his Bronze Star of the Empire MAJ Plif for my Bronze Star of the Empire LCM Nolij for his Palpatine Crescent CPT Flelm for his Imperial Security Medal Our nicknames and mottoes were picked last week, but I have a couple more things to say about those. LCM Nolij turned in our new Squadron Motto and has been awarded an IS-BR! The other seven nicknames and mottoes were turned in by your courageous captain, so thanks for voting for them! I haven't mentioned squadron citations in a while, but we've been some new ones. CPT Flelm has been checking the battleboard to find out what we need to gain citations, and the efforts of LCM Nolij and MAJ Wraith have gotten us close to a number of future citations. Way to go, all! The Alpha/Sin SC PvP Comp continues, with Sin showing quite a few more points than Alpha. Having to submit screenshots separately to the CMDRs seems to be part of the reason for that, though. We're working on a solution for that. ISDII Warrior Trivia is still going strong. Our own CPT Flelm came in at second place in Week 2, good hustle! Week 3 will be the last week before we send out monthly awards. The Sinner's Delight awards for this week went to CPT Flelm and LCM Nolij. Nice work, gentlemen! CPT Flelm introduced our new pilot to the TIE Corps and has been awarded his first Medal of Instruction. Flelm increased his combat rating to Elite 3rd this week, too. Outstanding! LCM Nolij also increased his combat rating to Elite 3rd this week. In addition, his FCHG rank increased to Aquilifer [AQFR]. Great job! MAJ Wraith's LoCs this week earned him a new combat rating as well, Veteran 1st. Excellent! Your fearless leader received the last LoC he needed for the highest combat rating, Tan. A lot of good-ish pilots died in order for this goal to be reached, we should take a moment to remember them. Okay, that's enough. TIE Golf is in the works. Our scoring system looks good and I've got the first mission picked, I just need to pick some dates and submit the competition to the database.
