    My poor e-mail inbox was flooded this week with medal e-mails from the SOO office. Granted, most of them were for me, bagging myself FIFTEEN IS-SWs in various competitions, but MAJ Clark also did well with 4 IS-BWs, and an IS-BR for both CPT Fenn and LCM Nylan. This is the kind of activity I like to see!

    The good news this week is that it's no longer me and the COM flying for HoP and HET#1, the bad news is there's only ONE additional pilot gunning for those medals. Come on, Hammer pilots. I know you are flying, as proven by the stats on the kill board. Where are your submissions!

    After the loss of 3 pilots in the past 3 MSEs, this has not been incentive for the remaing part of the squadron to kick their asses into gear. As such, I will start an AWOL check amongst those pilots. You have a few more weeks to get active, or you will be axxed from the roster before the new year begins. 2015 will start with a 100% active saquadron!

    TIE Golf has finished, and although I haven't been as successful as I had hoped, I still managed to grab a few shinies. As we speak, the Grand Final went into overtime as the mission HA Frodo had picked yielded a tie between him and MAJ Plif. I have selected the next mission, and hopt that this one will yield a winner. Otherwise, it's on to round 3. I'll create a mission specifically to break that tie if I have to!

    The biggest news in the fleet of course were both ship COMs this week. Our own COM, RA Elwood the Brave, was promoted to Vice Admiral, while the Warrior's COM, unable to be promoted due to already having the highest possible rank, was awarded the Gold Star of the Empire. Other news includes the return of old veteran, CM Arne Saknussem.

    Lastly, we are still looking for someone to take command of Beta Squadron, as CPT Nutrientman's interim commandership will end soon. There are several people on the Hammer's roster who would make a fine commander. Go for it!

    Delta squadron competitions

    Each day of the week (Mon-Fri) you will receive an email with a trivia
    question, same as before. 3 pts for the first correct answer, 2 pts for
    second and 1 pt for 3rd. At the end of the week, the one with the
    most points wins the shiny. As usual, there's extra shinies available for
    accumulating set amounts of points.
