Introduction |
Hello there,
It seems that this ship has awakened in the last hour, and we are
still on the fight for the Escort Squadron/Flagship competition. If
we could just send a little more pilot files in....
I guess the Command Staff must be pleased not to see my reports in
plain text anymore in the database....my Frontpage attempt worked
well, and the reports are now uploaded as seen here in the mailing
list....good....
I haven’t had much time to join IRC these past few days, but I’m
sure #wing_x is on fire....
Challenge website is up ad running, and I’ve already made updates to
almost all of it....go ceck it out, and give me and DL your
opinion...http://isdchallenge.tcbg.net
Oh....I will be on leave from next Wednesday to Sunday. I’ll be on a
nice beach in Florianópolis, and the Chal will be in the very
capable hands of COL Darklord. You all be nice to him....CMDRs
deliver their MSEs, pilots do their stuff and start working on
“Raise the Flag 2006” from HA Frodo. I’ll be back Sunday night.
Well, as you know...”Raise the Flag 2006” is just about to start.
Check here for details:
http://fo.emperorshammer.net/sc9/events.asp. This is a very
important competition. We’ll need tons of participation....you’ll
have to do your best, because we’ll be facing fierce competition
from the other ships, especially the Sovereign.... This is the
chance we were waiting for getting back at the SOVs for this year’s
competition back in June. Taking the title of Flagship of the TIE
Corps from them will be a nice get back....prepare to fly, write,
draw...
Master’s TIE Golf competition is also about to start. From the Chal
we will have the participation of myself, CM Saul Rostek from
Inferno and MAJ Diaboli from Omicron. Good luck to us, and I hope
one of us win this one!!
I’ve been spending some time in the new Freeworlds server...I’m
having a very good time in there. I can see that CM Karce has also
been there often. If anybody wants to do this and need assistance,
let me know... This is very important, because it will count points
(and many) to the “Raise the Flag 2006” comp. And don’t forget that
by killing Frodo you will receive an IS-BW. CM Karce has already
gotten one. I failed at my first attempt....
And long lost Coranel is back....not to the ship for now, but he’s
in touch....and very, very pissed because of 1200+ e-mails from our
mailing list....NICE WORK, PEOPLE!!!!! :D

Competitions |
* Kill the TCCOM!
Every time
Frothy is dueled and killed in Freeworlds, the pilot who did so wins
an IS-BW! This is only for the emperorshammer's Freeworld server!
http://freeworlds.emperorshammer.net/.
Deadline is December 15th. You get an IS-BW for killing “Frothy”.
* Raise the
Flagship 2006
All competition information can be found here:
http://fo.emperorshammer.net/sc9/events.asp.
* TCBG Escort
Squadron Competition
The scoring
rules are simple or complicated depending on how you want to view
it. Each squadron chooses a battle that a majority of his squadron
can fly and is betting that his squadron will defeat all the other
squadrons in the battle group. If the squadron has an even split of
platforms, chose the one that the commander can also fly. That is
the first phase of the competition (choosing the battle). Once all
the battles are chosen, they are released to the battle group and
you have 1 month to complete your squadron's battle and as many of
the other battles as you can. Only your squadron's battle is
mandatory for the competition. Wing Commanders and Commodores are
encouraged to fly these but are not required. When submitting the
score, send it to your CMDR who will BSF your pilot file and have in
the notes area written "For the Escort Squadron
Competition" as well as any other notes required for
processing by the Flight Office. I will be looking for this note to
record the Battle Score. Once the scores are collected, I will add
up the entire Squadron's Score for that battle and divide it by the
number of people in the squadron that can fly the
given battle. This average battle score will be added to all the
others for a final top squadron score. Each battle will be listed
separately as well as having the over all scores. Squadrons that
host will add 100 points for every squadron they defeat in their
battle chosen. For example: Squadron "A" chose TIE-TC001 as their
battle. They have 5 of the 8 members of the squadron that can fly
TIE. I received 4 submissions. Their total score for the battle is
144,357. I divide this by 5 to get 28,871.400. I then check to see
how many other squadrons have played this battle and their
standings. For every squadron that squadron "A" has a higher score
for the host battle in, I add 100 points. No points are added for
those that have defeated this squadron. This is then added to the
other battles flown and calculated in the same manner. The scores
are compared and the winning squadron is the one with the most
points at the end of October. Each week, I will release the current
standings for each squadron. Individual standing is not being
tracked. This is a squadron level competition and the more in the
squadron that participates, the better your chances are that you
will win.

Master's Monthly Map Mayhem
Start Date:
10/1/2006
Parties Involved: EH-wide
Medals: IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent) each month.
According to the System Manual (http://sysman.emperorshammer.net/)
the EH is in control of ten systems.
Each month Master is going to pick a planet from one of the EH
Controlled Systems* from the manual. Those interested will then have
the remainder of the month to create a Empire at War or SW Galactic
Battlegrounds or Jedi Academy map based on that planet.
*Master may throw in the odd other planet
from SW from time to time with more bonuses.
Designers are free to do as they like with the map provided basics
stay true to the System Manual information.
Maps will be judged on: Technical realization (use wat u got),
general plotline & general enjoyment.
All maps should be submitted ala standard TACcy Rules and via the
Custom BSF (http://tac.emperorshammer.net/tacdb/batsubmit.asp)
All maps will be judged by TAC.

Halloween Banner Prank
Competition 2006
Starts: 10/1/2006
Ends: 10/31/2006
Shiny Bobbles: IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent)
Much like a cool looking phoenix rising from ashes of old so is this
ripper of a competition that prob most of you weren't even here for
the first two times round and was subsequently lost to the ages.
Created by the infamous HA Keiran Idanian waaaaay back in the day
this comp was created basically to make fun of your rivals (and
friends) and have a laugh doing so. Not only that but it’s so easy,
even an idiot with paint (like me) can win a medal. Take either the
splash banner or standard banner from your rival squadron, wing,
ships, battlegroup, clan, house, company etc etc & put a prank on
it! This could go from simply changing some text to 'better suit the
picture' or changing a graphic to 'better suit the text' You can
submit as many submissions as you like (but u can only win one
medal). Any overly insulting submissions will be deleted. All
submission must be emailed to TAC no later than the 31st of October.
* Ace of the Tie
Corps
Starting this month, we now have a new monthly competition series -
Ace of the TIE Corps. The concept is simple - the pilot with the
most flown missions at the end of each month will recieve an Iron
Star with Gold Wings and the title "Ace of the Month". You will be
able to see the progress of pilots over time by checking the
Pilot Kill Board. At the end
of the year, the pilot with the most missions flown will recieve an
Iron Star with Platinum Wings and the title of "Ace of the TIE
Corps".
The competition is open to all members of the TIE Corps and the
counts are based on missions. Thus a battle will earn you more
points than a free mission. The June 2006 division of the
competition will end on 30th June, so get flying. Good luck!
* Imperial Alliance
Propoganda Festival
Submit
content to help promote Imperial Alliance. This can include banners,
slogans, etc. The best entry each week will get an IS-GR. The best
entry overall will be selected when Imperial Alliance is released
and will be awarded an IS-PR. Email entries to
propoganda@ehtiecorps.org.
Competition will run through January 30th, 2007.
* Quote of the Week
competition
Got some
funny IRC quotes? Send them in! Top 3 submissions per week earn an
IS-BR; top 3 submissions per month earn an IS-SR; IS-PR to the
yearly winner, IS-GR to second best yearly submission, and a IS-SR
to the third best yearly submissions. Email the quotes to FA Joe (Noon001@aol.com).
Only rules are they must have been said within the last 2 weeks (no
old, archived quotes) and you can't send in quotes of things that
you have said. Must be amusing things others have said. Competition
will run through January 21st, 2007.
* Wing X Pilot of
the Week/Month 2
Each week the
Wing X Commander will choose a pilot he believes has performed
better then any other pilot on the ship that week. At the end of the
month, Challenge Commodore will look at the overall performance of
every Pilot of the Week for that month, and will choose one of them
to become the Pilot of the Month. Each Pilot of the Week will be
awarded an IS-BR and each Pilot of the Month will be awarded an
IS-SR. The Wing X Pilot of the week will always be chosen in the
Wing Commander’s report.

Dark Lord of the
Week |
The highly
prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the
person who has most advanced the success of the Wing, amused the
Wing Commander, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper
bag. This week's winner is:
Every Challenge
Pilot, that
flew for the TCBG Escort Squadron/Flagship comp!!!
|
Ewok of the Week |
Yub Yub!
Every story has a
hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's
about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's
Prize Ewok is none other than:
Every Challenge pilot,
that didn’t ;)

Quote of the Week |
Alexi: “I can’t fly”
Darklord: “*tapes some
paper wings to Stukov*
someone push him over a big drop and test that theory”
Azurin: “*Puts
Darklord in a catapult and fires*”
Darklord: “not me!!!
No alcohol supplies to Thunder squad for the next 6 months.... >:P”

Conclusion
|
Take that last minute breath and fly a little more for this
competition. We are doing well so far, but we can lose this easily
in the last minute. Do whatever you can, because when this comp is
over we’ll have a party with lots of Chalquilla...for those who flew...and,
of course, the party for Domi’s return ;)
Don’t forget I’ll be on leave from Wednesday to Sunday. Keep this
place shiny....have a good week!!
