[13:12] <FA_Fel> -=News from the Office of the Supreme Commander=-
[13:12] <FA_Fel> 1) Reorganization Pending
[13:12] <FA_Fel> Many of you have contributed to the MB discussion regarding reorganization of the Navy and Army's lowest ranks. Unfortunately, the changes are not ready for today, but I expect to have them done in the near future.
[13:12] <FA_Fel> You will receive full details when all is ready...
[13:12] <FA_Fel> --
[13:12] <FA_Fel> 2) Site Hackings
[13:12] <FA_Fel> On several occasions, the GE's front page was defaced by hackers. Moff Jansen has been communicating with the hosting company to get the situation under control. We don't expect further problems, but please notify me if you find the front page replaced again.
[13:13] <FA_Fel> In the meantime, you can always access the main concourse by going to http://www.empirereborn.net/er.php (only the index.html introduction page was replaced).
[13:13] <FA_Fel> --
[13:13] <FA_Fel> 3) Ladders Reminder
[13:13] <FA_Fel> As announced in the January meeting: To stimulate ladder activity in some platforms that have seen a recent drop-off, for the winter ladders I have a little extra reward in mind for the winners of the following ladders, assuming at least ten matches are played in them:
[13:13] <FA_Fel> The Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy, and X-Wing Alliance ladders. I hope to be handing out awards come the next meeting!
[13:13] <FA_Fel> As expected, the winter ladders remain open until 2009-03-31.

[13:23] <FA_Fel> ---=== The End ===---
[13:24] <FA_Fel> Lord Syrtaras, news for us today?
02[13:24] * Quits: Qorl (Read error: EOF from client)
[13:24] <FA_Fel> It would seem he does not.
[13:25] <FA_Fel> Colonel Antillies, news for us today?
[13:25] <LCL_Antilies> Yes, Sir. Both for the Academy and First Brigade.
[13:25] <FA_Fel> Please proceed.
[13:25] <LCL_Antilies> --=News from the Imperial Academy=--
[13:25] <LCL_Antilies> 1. New Graduation Requirements
[13:25] <LCL_Antilies> As mentioned previously, the Academy has implemented a new set of graduation requirements.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> The new system requires perspective members to earn a total of 3 points by completing various tasks in addition to submitting a screenshot from their platform.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> The tasks include completing Academy exams, submitting fiction and/or graphics, and posting on the message board.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> It is our hope that this system will reinforce our policy of quality over quantity when it comes to new members.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> --
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> 2. First Graduation
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> If anyone has not seen, our first graduate under the system is EN Audrine.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> EN Audrine has been steadfast in completing the various tasks and, from what we've seen so far, should be a fine addition to the Empire.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> Please pass you congratulations and warm welcome onto her.
[13:26] <LCL_Antilies> --
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> -=End=-
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> --=News from the First Brigade=--
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> 1. New Member Activity
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> Over the course of the last month or so, the Brigade has seen tremendous activity from some of its new members.
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> Appropriately, they have been recognized for this by being promoted to the rank of Lance Corporal.
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> Those individuals are: LCP Anderson, LCP Jhredmo, LCP Viper, and LCP Viper.
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> Keep up the fantastic work, Gentlemen. You are examples for the entire Brigade!
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> --
[13:27] <LCL_Antilies> 2. Reserve Transfer
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> Unfortunately due to real life circumstances, LCP Jhredmo has asked to be transferred to the reserves.
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> LCP Jhredmo was a very active officer with much potential and I am sad to see him go.
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> It is my hope that he will one day return to the Empire, but until then I wish him the best of luck resolving his real life situation.
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> --
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> 3. Operation IRON FIST
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> Operation IRON FIST has begun and has already seen some interesting game play.
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> Most of the officers involved have done a fantastic job of completing their assignments in a timely fashion and I am pleased to see that much discussion over strategy and tactics has been generated.
[13:28] <LCL_Antilies> With one turn down, there is still a lot of game left. Keep up the good work and on to victory!
[13:29] <LCL_Antilies> --
[13:29] <LCL_Antilies> -=End=-
[13:29] <LCL_Antilies> That is all, Admiral.
[13:29] <FA_Fel> Thank you, Colonel...

[13:30] <FA_Fel> Commander La Forge, the floor is yours.
[13:30] <LC_La_Forge> Thank you, sir.
[13:31] <LC_La_Forge> As Ensign Audrine's squadron leader, I wanted to take the opportunity to publically welcome her to the Imperial Navy. It seems the good Colonel has beaten me to it, but despite that, I say "welcome!" :)
[13:31] <LC_La_Forge> Otherwise, just the usual "Iota is the best squadron in the fleet" stuff, etc etc etc. :)
[13:31] <LC_La_Forge> That is all.
[13:31] <FA_Fel> Thank you, Commander.
03[13:32] * FA_Fel sets mode: -v LC_La_Forge

[13:35] <LT_Fewr> so, yeah
[13:35] <LC_La_Forge> Antillies: How many turns do you think Iron Fist will run?
[13:36] <LCL_Antilies> No idea. Depends on how long it takes either side to wipe the other out :P
[13:37] <LC_La_Forge> Ah, fair enough :P
[13:37] <LC_La_Forge> Both sides have gone one turn at this point, or only Blue?
[13:37] <LCL_Antilies> Or until Grand Admiral La Forge comes to the rescue with the whole fleet and blows teh map to pieces :P
[13:37] <LCL_Antilies> Just blue.

[13:39] <Scimitar2> What? :P

[13:40] <LC_La_Forge> Don't give us that, Lieutenant. :P
[13:40] <Scimitar2> And now it's in the log. Congrats :P
[13:40] <LC_La_Forge> Lovely. :P
[13:41] <LC_La_Forge> Too bad it's really not that funny. Otherwise I'd have Bash'd it by now :P
02[13:41] * Quits: LCL_Antilies (Ping timeout)
03[13:41] * Scimitar2 is now known as LCL_Antilies

[13:44] <LCL_Antilies> :P
[13:44] <LC_La_Forge> Ah :P
[13:44] <LC_La_Forge> Iota flys gunboats :P
[13:45] <LT_Fewr> heh.
[13:45] <LCL_Antilies> Gunboat = Imperial Fighter = TIE. Transative property :P
06[13:45] * LC_La_Forge stamps "Transitive fail" on Antillies. :P
[13:45] <LCL_Antilies> Hardly :P
[13:47] <LC_La_Forge> Do Gunboats have Twin Ion Engines, Colonel? :P
[13:47] <LT_Fewr> not as good as the Xayun seal of disapproval :P
[13:47] <LCL_Antilies> I honestly don't know. Do they?
[13:47] <LC_La_Forge> Neither do I. But if they don't, as I suspect theyd don't, they are not TIEs. :P
[13:49] <LCL_Antilies> Oh, oh: 2 Cygnus 4K7 Dual Line ion engines! :P
[13:49] <LT_Fewr> we'll just nod and smile and call it a day :P
[13:49] <LC_La_Forge> Bugger :P
[13:49] <LCL_Antilies> Transative property wins! :)
[13:49] <LC_La_Forge> It's still a Cygnus X-1 Assault Gunboat to me :P
[13:49] <LCL_Antilies> :P
[13:50] <LT_Fewr> Antillies: you're still a turn coat. Your Transative property loses it's value :P
[13:50] <LCL_Antilies> No, I'd be a turn coat if I turned into a GA in the ID :P
[13:51] <LC_La_Forge> We could all go over there and do that, actually :P
[13:51] <LCL_Antilies> :P
[13:51] <LT_Fewr> ew
[13:51] <LT_Fewr> that's revolting
[13:51] <LC_La_Forge> lol, obviously we'd get everyone to defect or something once we got to that point :P
[13:52] <LCL_Antilies> Alright, well I think we're done with discussion... :P
06[13:52] * LC_La_Forge whistles :P
[13:53] <LT_Fewr> heh.
