[17:59] <FA_Fel> Greetings Imperial Officers and Citizens, and welcome to the 30th GE:ER Meeting.
[17:59] <FA_Fel> Official Rosters currently stand at 160 active Imperials, with an overall membership count of 889 officers...!
[17:59] <FA_Fel> As per usual, please do NOT message myself or other chanOPs with announcements until invited to do so...
[18:00] <FA_Fel> That said, I have the honour of beginning announcements today...
[18:00] <FA_Fel> -=News from the Office of the Supreme Commander=-
[18:00] <FA_Fel> 1) G3RLM
[18:00] * Munro_Burton is now known as BRG_Burton
[18:00] <FA_Fel> For those of you who were not aware, the GE held its third official Real-Life Meeting (GERLM III, also known as G3RLM) in Germany this past week.
[18:00] <FA_Fel> Attendees were: Fleet Admiral Fel, System Governor Vortagh, Vice Admiral Zwibble, Lord Syrtaras, Vice Admiral Jagged Fel, Admiral Polanski, Line Captain Laithlis,
[18:01] <FA_Fel> Colonel Logngstreet, Lieutenant Commander Steel, Commander Jamie, Sub-Lieutenant Qorl, Reserve Zyrax, and Reserve Boyington.
[18:01] <FA_Fel> This round has been hosted by Governor Vortagh and VA Zwibble, I can say that everything has been a great success and I would like to thank our gracious hosts for getting everything in order.
[18:01] <FA_Fel> All attendees will, of course, receive the GERLM commendation for their attendance and I would like to also note that I believe all attendees had a good time, and it was a pleasure to see you all there.
[18:01] <FA_Fel> Pictures and summaries will be forthcoming in good time... Keep your eyes on the message boards.
[18:02] * Looking up CM_Jamie user info...
[18:02] <FA_Fel> In the meanwhile, however, a good many of us will be taking some time to recover... ;-)
[18:02] <FA_Fel> 2) Army Change of Command
[18:02] <FA_Fel> In light of General Jansen's intention to step down from his post as Commander of the Army, it was necessary to execute a change of command in the Imperial Army.
[18:02] <FA_Fel> Jansen has been the longest-serving member of Imperial High Command, dating back to his time as Imperial Academy Commandant under the tenure of Grand Admiral Daemon.
[18:03] <FA_Fel> He has consistently worked for the betterment of the Empire over the years in several different positions... As such, I have seen fit to promote Jansen to the rank of Moff.
[18:03] <FA_Fel> The Master-At-Arms, Major General Tsai Branet, was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General and it was also my pleasure to promote Colonel Burton to the rank of Brigadier as the Imperial Army's new Master-At-Arms.
[18:03] <FA_Fel> Please give all three officers your congratulations!
[18:03] <FA_Fel> 3) ICTE
[18:04] <FA_Fel> By my special request, ICTE is running today in #outerrim - I hope that many of you will go there and play matches today.
[18:04] <FA_Fel> To get there from here, simply type /join #outerrim !
[18:04] <FA_Fel> -= End of Section =-
[18:05] <FA_Fel> Brigadier Burton, do you have news from the army for us today?
[18:05] <BRG_Burton> I do have a few items, Fleet Admiral.
[18:05] <FA_Fel> Please proceed.
[18:06] <BRG_Burton> -= News from the Master-At-Arms =-
[18:06] <BRG_Burton> 1) If you haven't heard about the change in Army Command, you live in a cave.
[18:06] <BRG_Burton> 2) The Company Challenges are still running with a turnout of four so far. This competition will go on until I'm fed up with waiting... so a little while longer.
[18:06] <BRG_Burton> 3) Second Brigade BRG-CO is still open for applications, with perhaps some relaxation in the original requirements. If you feel you can do the job, apply!
[18:07] <BRG_Burton> That's all of them.
[18:07] <FA_Fel> Thank you, Brigadier.
[18:07] <FA_Fel> Captain Mar, do you have any announcements for today?
[18:07] * Branet (Branet@200.28.90.254) has joined #galactic_empire
[18:08] <FA_Fel> It appears that Captain Mar is presently not at the keyboard...
[18:08] <FA_Fel> If anyone else has announcements today, please /msg me now...
[18:09] <FA_Fel> And in the meantime we will give Mr. Branet a few minutes to get organized...
[18:10] <FA_Fel> Seeing no further announcements (and Branet's already delivered by Brigadier Burton), then it seems the announcement phase of the meeting comes to an end...
[18:11] * FA_Fel changes topic to 'GE Meeting 30: Open Discussion || http://www.empirereborn.net/'
[18:11] * ^`Orzo (~exor-bloo@bas3-sudbury98-1168050426.dsl.bell.ca) has joined #galactic_empire
[18:11] * ^`Orzo (~exor-bloo@bas3-sudbury98-1168050426.dsl.bell.ca) has left #galactic_empire
[18:11] * CPT_Hennings (ALT_Kevin@207-119-76-69.dyn.centurytel.net) Quit (Read error: EOF from client)
[18:11] <FA_Fel> We now proceed to open discussion with the note that we have a bit of a shortage of news & attendees today because a great many of them were here at G3RLM this week.
[18:12] <FA_Fel> As such most people are recovering from the activities or otherwise in transit.
[18:12] <BRG_Burton> About time it's over. GERLMs aren't healthy for channel activity. :P
[18:12] <FA_Fel> Indeed.
[18:13] <FA_Fel> At this point, however, I must turn the leadership of the meeting over to Brigadier Burton, as I must be off...
[18:13] <BRG_Burton> Horrors! :P
[18:14] <BRG_Burton> Actually, I could dig up an old trivia if anyone's interested.
[18:15] * Retrieving #galactic_empire modes...
[18:15] * BRG_Burton sets mode: -m
[18:15] <BRG_Burton> Whoops. :P
