GE Meeting #15

[Fel]

[13:00:02] <@AD_Fel> All hands, attention on deck!
[13:00:06] * AD_Fel sets mode: +m
[13:00:18] <@FAPolanski> My thanks Admiral.
[13:00:31] <@FAPolanski> Welcome to the #15 Galactic Empire meeting!
[13:00:32] <@FAPolanski> Please do not message myself or any of the ops during the announcements phase.
[13:00:41] <@FAPolanski> http://www.empirereborn.net/docs.php?page=irc
[13:00:41] <@FAPolanski> As per usual, I have the honour to start the announcements!
[13:01:07] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:01:08] <@FAPolanski> ## News From the Office of the Supreme Commander ##
[13:01:08] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:01:43] <@FAPolanski> 1. Fleet Numbers
[13:02:02] <@FAPolanski> The Empire currently has on the rosters 124 (+16) active Imperals, 698 (+25) in total, and there are currently 40 (+8) cadets in the academy. It is good to see a rise in the number of members since our last meeting - keep that recruiting going! (more on that later)
[13:02:06] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:02:55] <@FAPolanski> 2. Empire At War Fully Supported!
[13:03:07] <@FAPolanski> After the hard work of Admiral Fel, together with Captain La Forge and myself at times, the GE:ER has finished its support. In addition to the Naval support, the Gaming ladder is now active - viewable at http://empirereborn.net/ladders.php?pag ... adderid=17.
[13:03:27] * Joins: PV2_Nemesis (EN_Jamie@host-87-74-88-187.bulldogdsl.com)
[13:03:47] <@FAPolanski> Currently there are seven members signed up, and I'd like to see a few more sign up as soon as. In multiplayer, you have the chance to be recognised not only in the Empire, but also on the world EaW ladders on Gamespot.
[13:04:09] <@FAPolanski> When registering with them, please use the tag [GE:ER] infront of your name to get people knowing we're out there.
[13:04:35] <@FAPolanski> As an incentive, you might see my name on those ladders either this month or next ;-) Good luck to all!
[13:04:37] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:04:51] <@FAPolanski> 3. Recruitment drive begins again!
[13:05:44] <@FAPolanski> With the release of EaW it only makes sense to start a recruitment drive to help swell our growing numbers. We still get many new cadets but we need more. Thus, a simple recruitment drive starts today; aimed more at EaW but of course cadets for all divisons are required.
[13:06:42] <@FAPolanski> In addition to the Medals of Expansion, I will be awarding levels of merit medals depending upon the number of recruits that graduate the academy over the next two months. Look on the messageboards for details of what these awards will be!
[13:06:57] <@FAPolanski> I look forward to seeing our numbers reach new heights :)
[13:07:04] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:07:10] <@FAPolanski> 4. Holonet upgrades
[13:07:24] * Joins: LT_Lee (GE@applwili01-vlan100-a219.applwi.tds.net)
[13:08:10] <@FAPolanski> The website is currently being upgraded behind the scenes; if you see anything go amiss please email myself as soon as possible so that I can alert the necessary people. More news of this may appear later...
[13:08:12] <@FAPolanski> --
[13:08:58] <@FAPolanski> That is all my announcements for now; so I will kinda ask Admiral Fel for his, followed by General Jansen. If anyone else has anything to announcement please let me know by message now.
[13:09:03] <@FAPolanski> Admiral Fel...?
[13:09:11] <@AD_Fel> Thank you, Admiral Polanski... :-)
[13:09:16] <@FAPolanski> Not a problem.
[13:09:34] <@AD_Fel> I have several key announcements, and, as always, I will lead off with the Outer Sectors Information...
[13:09:48] <@AD_Fel> Tomorrow marks the arrival of Outer Sectors Chapter 29 - the second-last chapter of the campaign!
[13:10:10] <@AD_Fel> Imperial Forces face a difficult, final battle against Rebel Emplacements... This battle is so large, that it will need to be depicted across both Chapter 29 and Chapter 30...
[13:10:27] <@AD_Fel> Your participation in this battle is key, as it will be the deciding factor between victory and defeat for the Empire...
[13:10:44] <@AD_Fel> This does mean, however, that Outer Sectors will draw shortly to a close...
[13:10:58] <@AD_Fel> Therefore, the very last day to turn in any items for Outer Sectors credit is 30 April, 2006. Please make a note of this! No submissions will be accepted after that date, so make sure to have yours in on time!
[13:11:22] <@AD_Fel> In a related note, please take the time to check over your Outer Sectors scores - though we have done our best to make them accurate, mistakes do happen, especially in a campaign as long as this.
[13:11:38] <@AD_Fel> Please report any potential mistakes you have identified to myself at fel@empirereborn.net . Remember: We cannot correct it if you do not report it!
[13:11:52] <@AD_Fel> To that end, ALL flight performance reports currently filed have been processed.
[13:12:02] <@AD_Fel> If you are still missing any from your scorechart, please contact your commanding officer to have him or her enter the FPR as soon as possible.
[13:12:23] <@AD_Fel> It is my hope that in the next GE meeting - 6 May, 2006 - that we will be able to announce the Outer Sectors awards...!
[13:12:57] <@AD_Fel> My next item is related to the Imperial Officers' Manual...
[13:13:31] <@AD_Fel> I have updated the GE Structure graphic, available within the manual under the heading of 'GE Structure'.
[13:14:09] <@AD_Fel> This revised graphic should give officers a better idea of how exactly the Empire is arranged, including the roles and reporting chains of elite units such as the Royal Guard...
[13:14:22] <@AD_Fel> If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. :-)
[13:14:36] <@AD_Fel> On to news from the Navy itself...
[13:15:01] <@AD_Fel> FA Polanski has already mentioned the status of the Empire at War Ladders, so I will move to my next item.
[13:15:51] <@AD_Fel> However, I am happy to report significant Empire at War growth in the Navy, as both the FRG Thunderbolt and the FRG Chinook have a number of staff aboard!
[13:16:51] <@AD_Fel> In addition, I am also happy to report a high level of activity from Psi squadron aboard the ISD Nemesis - they are making an excellent example for us all. :-)
[13:17:23] * Quits: LT_Lee (GE@applwili01-vlan100-a219.applwi.tds.net) (Signed off)
[13:17:51] <@AD_Fel> And as another item, the next version of Fel's Fantastic Fleet Report (April Edition) will soon be out... Watch your inboxes for it shortly! :-)
[13:18:20] <@AD_Fel> And as a last note, please do not forget about ICTE - Inter-Club Training Event.
[13:18:58] <@AD_Fel> Hosted on Saturdays in #outerrim, it is a meeting place for matches in several games, but most prominently, Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy.
[13:19:32] <@AD_Fel> Remember, each participation - whether you win or not - counts towards your Imperial Star...
[13:19:52] <@AD_Fel> That is all for today... The floor is yours, General. :-)
[13:20:01] <@GEN_Jansen> Thank you Admiral
[13:20:09] <@GEN_Jansen> ----::: News From the Office of the Commander of the Army :::----
[13:20:29] <@GEN_Jansen> 1) Thanks to the help from Lance Corporal Jaxson Pressor and Admiral Fel, the Army ranks descriptions in the officers manual have been updated. http://empirereborn.net/erom/
[13:20:31] <@GEN_Jansen> .
[13:20:49] <@GEN_Jansen> 2) A few weeks ago there was a little change in the RG-CPT ranks. The Captain of the Royal Guard now can hold the rank of Major on appointment and can go up to the rank of full Colonel. This ranking system is for full time RG-CPTs. At current, our Captain is part time.
[13:20:51] <@GEN_Jansen> .
[13:21:13] <@GEN_Jansen> 3) I have added the Imperial Army Tech Library to our Army site. Will host all the specs and info on our units. I am always looking for more or better descriptions and or pics. http://army.empirereborn.net/tech.html
[13:21:15] <@GEN_Jansen> .
[13:21:33] <@GEN_Jansen> Please send anything you might have plus any errors you see to me at coa@empirereborn.net.
[13:21:39] <@GEN_Jansen> .
[13:21:44] <@GEN_Jansen> 4) Army activity is up to an all time high. We have more active members now than we have ever had before. I would like to thank all of you for helping this take place. Keep it up!
[13:21:46] <@GEN_Jansen> .
[13:22:07] <@GEN_Jansen> That is all I have. I believe we have some news from Colonel Branet when his time is up.
[13:22:09] <@GEN_Jansen> My thanks!
[13:22:21] <@FAPolanski> Indeed! Thank you Admiral and General.
[13:22:35] <@FAPolanski> Colonel Branet has indeed got some news, Colonel ?
[13:22:49] <@COL_Branet> yes, Sir!
[13:23:04] <@COL_Branet> =Imperial Army 1st Brigade News=-
[13:23:17] <@COL_Branet> 1.- The first Brigade consists at the moment of 04 Companies with 19 officers on the rosters.
[13:23:18] <@COL_Branet> For the time being, I am going to emphasize some promotions happened inside the Imperial Army since the last meeting:
[13:23:18] <@COL_Branet> - ALT Munro Burton has been promoted to Army Capitan
[13:23:18] <@COL_Branet> - LCP Mattrik Trenal has been promoted to Junior Lieutenant and is the new XO of Spearhead Company
[13:23:18] <@COL_Branet> - PFC Jaxson Pressor has been promoted to Lance Corporal
[13:23:21] <@COL_Branet> - LCP Thot Ghor has been a promoted to Sergeant.
[13:23:40] <@COL_Branet> These promotions have stood out because they are the result of constant, dedicated and excellent performance demonstrated by
[13:23:40] <@COL_Branet> these members of the Imperial Army. My congratulations.
[13:23:53] <@COL_Branet> ----------------------------
[13:24:04] <@COL_Branet> 2.- For personal motives, ALT Glendon stopped being CO of the Raider Company. From now he will give his services in the
[13:24:04] <@COL_Branet> company with the prestigious status of Staff Sergeant.
[13:24:18] <@COL_Branet> ----------------------------
[13:24:32] <@COL_Branet> 3.- The competition Band of Brothers March Edition has finished. The results and the delivery of medals will do in tomorrow.
[13:24:32] <@COL_Branet> The candidates' quantity was not so high as the previous edition (which is lamentable since someone medals lost for this
[13:24:32] <@COL_Branet> motive) nevertheless achieved a good yield and the participation of new members of the Imperial Army and the Imperial Navy
[13:24:33] <@COL_Branet> (especially in the section Trivia). The next edition will bring new platforms, new sections apart from the Trivia, and a
[13:24:36] <@COL_Branet> central history that will serve as fund for the achievement of the competences. Until the next edition!
[13:25:10] <@COL_Branet> ----------------------------
[13:25:22] <@COL_Branet> 4.- As the company Raider has remained without CO, the GEN Jansen, MGN JaggedFel and I, we have decided that who must assume
[13:25:22] <@COL_Branet> this position is the current XO of the company, JLT Pharaxes.
[13:25:39] <@COL_Branet> Therefore, JLT Pharaxes/Raider XO/1st Brigade, ICorps/Imperial Army
[13:25:39] <@COL_Branet> has been promoted to...
[13:25:39] <@COL_Branet> ALT Pharaxes/Raider CO/1st Brigade, ICorps/Imperial Army
[13:25:54] <@COL_Branet> ALT Pharaxes, as now SSG Glendon, is an excellent, out-standing and responsible official who, we are sure, will do an
[13:25:54] <@COL_Branet> excellent work as new CO of the Raider Company.
[13:25:54] <@COL_Branet> My congratulations, ALT Pharaxes!
[13:26:07] <@COL_Branet> -=End=-
[13:26:15] <@COL_Branet> This is all for the time being. Thank you very much!
[13:27:18] <@FAPolanski> Thank you for the detailed report!
[13:27:18] -> [AD_Fel] PING
[13:28:01] <@FAPolanski> Commodore Vortagh, any news from the Tactical Office?
[13:28:27] <@FAPolanski> (Although I believe the good Commodore is AFK)
[13:28:29] * Quits: PV2_Nemesis (EN_Jamie@host-87-74-88-187.bulldogdsl.com) (Signed off)
[13:29:16] <@FAPolanski> Indeed, let us move on. As no one has sent me any other messages, I propose we move to open discussion...
[13:29:47] * AD_Fel changes topic to 'GE Meeting: Open Discussion || http://www.empirereborn.net/'
[13:29:52] * FAPolanski sets mode: -m
[13:29:55] <LC_Steel> Freedom! :p
[13:30:09] * LCP_Pressor is now known as `Jaxson
[13:30:11] <@FAPolanski> Old timer! :P
[13:30:15] <@AD_Fel> It appears Steel remembers that tradition.
[13:30:15] <LC_Steel> :p
[13:30:18] * Munro_Burton pushes Steel down onto the second-highest step :P
[13:30:46] <@FAPolanski> Wasn't it also "Release the TIEs!"
[13:31:04] <LC_Steel> You can´t budge me, my many medals make me too heavy for you :p
[13:31:13] <@MGN_JagFel> Release the PIEs!
[13:31:22] <@GEN_Jansen> PIES!
[13:31:24] * @MGN_JagFel hits Trenal in the face with a cmreme pie :P
[13:31:26] <@AD_Fel> Cry havoc, and let slip the TIEs of war...
[13:31:31] <Munro_Burton> You have less medals than me. :P
[13:31:38] <@FAPolanski> Beware the TIEs of March!
[13:31:50] * Munro_Burton uses the inertia of his medals and a charge to shove Steel down :P
[13:31:57] <LT_Ualtar> Ugh! the Ties of March. That is just a bad joke. :P
[13:32:08] <@AD_Fel> Burton: If you were really smart, you'd just build a higher step for yourself. ;-)
[13:32:18] <Munro_Burton> I'm too lazy to do that.
[13:32:20] <@FAPolanski> Just a little...
[13:32:47] <EF_Jamie> Btw, its not my fault that Nemesis logged off, stupid boy :P
[13:32:58] <Munro_Burton> Nemesis is you. :P
[13:33:01] <EF_Jamie> He's playing everquest 2 :O
[13:33:03] <EF_Jamie> Nope.
[13:33:04] <LC_Steel> Munro I have far more medals than you have, even those in your dreams :p
[13:33:05] <EF_Jamie> My brother.
[13:33:13] <Munro_Burton> Steel... you have 10.
[13:33:15] <EF_Jamie> My alt, is Jim
[13:33:38] * @FAPolanski wonders if anyone plays GW :P
[13:33:41] <EF_Jamie> Until I deem my friend worthy of passing it over to him, once again
[13:33:42] <LT_Ualtar> Well, everyone have a great afternoon/evening it is time to go play Guild Wars
[13:33:50] <LT_Ualtar> I DO I DO
[13:33:53] <@MGN_JagFel> :P
[13:33:55] <EF_Jamie> ciao
[13:34:01] <LC_Steel> Munro, there are also medals that the Nexus cannot count :p
[13:34:06] <@FAPolanski> I know you do :P
[13:34:08] <LC_Steel> Liek MoX :p
[13:34:11] <LC_Steel> like*
[13:34:24] <EF_Jamie> Fleet Admiral, where exactly on the message boards was that issue about Merit medals for recruits out of academy?
[13:34:40] <Munro_Burton> You just cheated with Academy exams to get a longer ID line. :P
[13:34:47] <LC_Steel> Hah :p
[13:34:48] * Quits: LT_Ualtar (~chatzilla@pool-71-251-63-70.washdc.east.verizon.net) (Quit: Chatzilla 0.9.68.5.1 [Firefox 1.0.7/20050915])
[13:35:03] <@FAPolanski> EF_Jamie : I havent written it yet ;-)
[13:35:11] <LC_Steel> I don´t count those though :p
[13:35:11] <EF_Jamie> Ah. I see.
[13:36:12] <EF_Jamie> In addition, where is that structure item, that Admiral Fel mentioned?
[13:36:28] <Munro_Burton> http://empirereborn.net/erom/ge_structure.html
[13:36:31] <@MGN_JagFel> Officers Manual
[13:36:35] <Munro_Burton> There you go, Jamie. :P
[13:36:39] <@AD_Fel> In the manual, Jamie, under 'GE Structure'.
[13:37:53] <EF_Jamie> Oh OK, I didn't notice that before.
[13:38:01] <@MGN_JagFel> apparently :P
[13:42:01] <EF_Jamie> Imperial Scientist : You tell Lord Vader it doesn't work! (@ gaping hole through stormtrooper armour) :P
[13:42:30] <@FAPolanski> Is there any more meeting discussion anyone ?
[13:43:09] <EF_Jamie> Other than having to always sign in twice to MB's, no :P
[13:43:21] <@FAPolanski> That doesnt always happen ;-)
[13:43:36] <@AD_Fel> Do you check the "keep me logged in" feature?
[13:43:43] <EF_Jamie> Um, where would that be? :P
[13:44:01] <@AD_Fel> Next to login at the bottom of index.php
[13:46:24] <@AD_Fel> Seeing no further meeting discussion - perhaps it's best to close the log here. :-)
[13:46:34] <@FAPolanski> Indeed. Let us do that!
[13:46:36] * AD_Fel changes topic to 'GE Meeting Over! Thanks to all who attended! || http://www.empirereborn.net/'
[13:46:38] <@FAPolanski> Thanks for coming to the meeting!
[13:46:47] <@FAPolanski> 6 May is next, keep an eye in the time :)
