ISD Challenge Report #6

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #6 –

ISD Challenge Weekly Report #6 – 20th of November 2006

 

Introduction

Hello, pilots,

The competition to decide the Flagship of the TIE Corps continues. This week, we had two results for bonus competitions sent out. The first one was the Single Player, with victory to LC Tempest of the SSSD Sovereign. Then, this weekend we saw the Multiplayer competition, which was won by COL Brucmack, of the Redemption. These results left the competition with the following standings. The Redemption has lead with 5973 points, followed by Praetorian’s DGN Lichtor V with 5134 points. And there is us, in third place, with 4419 points.

As you can see, Redemption’s victory in the multiplayer comp has left us more than 1500 points in disadvantage. It will be hard, but I’ll try to reduce this amount with Freeworlds activity. Here are ten days left for the competition, and we need every bit of activity. We CAN still win this. Get to work!! I can see that few pilots are being active...that’s not good; I want to see more pilots taking part in defending this ship.

COL Flint Darkstar, who had a brief passage through the Challenge early this year, is back to Typhoon Squadron. He comes back after a five month Tour of Duty as CA of the Operations Officer. Welcome back, Flint!

COL Golbez Harvey has stepped down as Wing Commander of Wing XIX after a seven month Tour of Duty. Applications for the job are not being accepted at this time.

The Training Officer is looking for a Command Attaché. If you’re interested, check the requirements for the position in the TC news page, or in the message boards.

If you’re interested in being an academic, there are several Professor position open in IWATS. The following courses are in need of profs: AIM, FLA, GFX, LIN, M, TLN, TM and XMD

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.

* Season’s Reflections
The participants are to search for or create (better to create) submissions from the fields of poetry, story writing, graphics, and audio categories that say the most of what the upcoming holidays mean to you. Only one entry per category may be made. Star Wars twists are encouraged. Original creations will garner better scores. Each entry will be worth up to 100 points. The Grand winner will be the one with the most points overall. Writing: The submission must have at least 1 full page single spaced lines that fit the theme. Poetry: The submission may be of any type of poetry (except limerick). Grammar and diction are key in this category. Graphics: Copyrighted materials will disqualify the entrant from the category. Audio: This can be either self-made songs, a recording of your own writings you recite, or anything of this nature. This category must be accompanied by a written explanation as to why it says "This is what the season is to me". The explanation is not needed for recitations of personal created works. Copyright enforcement is in effect with this competition as the winners will have their works submitted to the newsletter for publication. Audio submissions may be submitted as links to a site to be determined. Proof of authorship may be required in some cases. Medal Awards are: Iron Star: Gold ribbons (1 for each category and for the Grand Winner), Silver ribbons for each runner up, Bronze ribbons for the third place entries and honorable mentions. Deadline is the end of this month, and submissions go to Talons Pryde.

* Master’s TIE Golf Comp
This is Master’s TIE Golf comp....you have to subscribe until October 25th to participate. Check it out here: http://tac.emperorshammer.net/TIEGolf/

* 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.

* 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:

CPT Tvan’Oris, for getting Cyclone Flight II Leader position!!!

 

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:

 

You’re a whole tribe of ewoks, if you don’t participate in Raise the Flag!!

 

Quote of the Week

Stuart: “Welcome SL!  I'm an old vet... Thunderinian for a long time, COM, and then I went up to CS.... but yeah, if they get too overwhelming you can totally ask me for advice on how best to annoy them... (pssst. NECROPOSTING!!)”

Kadon: “WHAT MANNER OF BEAST IS THIS THAT APPROACHETH???!!!! Stuart.. I seem to remember that beast's name.... Something that had almost killed me once, but I shall slay it again... (readies his blasters)... I think its a Zombie!”

Oskar: “/me gets out the holy water and the book of the holies
Back, lest I smite theee!”

Morpheus: “::walks into the room, and stops for a minute::

‘Hm... what is that horrible smell, its sort of like unwashed armpit, but worse... Oh well’

::continues walking past oblivious and pours himself a shot of vodka::”

Conclusion

Also, Freeworlds is worth too many points in this competition to be overlooked. Therefore, if you have Freeworlds capabilities, go into the EH server, complete as many missions as you can, and prepare for the Bonus competition. We can make it!!!
