TCC:XWA appointed
Congrats to CPT Hunter, new Tactical Coordinator for XWA. I believe he will do fine job, and we will soon
see increased number of new XWA submissions. Meantime, congratulations.
New competitions.
There is still Baner and
Song competitions on now. Also
I've sent one more for approval.
Tactical Office Person of the Week. I have also few ideas for competitions, and they will be used
one after one.
Meantime I've received some great banner submissions, but you can still win this comp. Also, there was only
one Song submission, so great chance to get good medal there.

Just like week before: Clarification about "what is cheating and what is not cheating":
It is all in Tactical Manual, but it seems some people has problems with it. Ok, listen now:
Cheating:
- Editing missions - you can view them in editor, but you are not allowed to many ANY changes
- Editing plt files - do not touch them
- Skipping missions - this will not bring you upon HCI, but I will remove mission from your profile
- Editing executables, patches, games
- Using patches for battles that not use them
- Killing friendly/captured fighters/ships/etc
- Sharing pilot files
- Using one pilot file for multiple missions
- And many more
- Using Invulnerability, Unlimited Ammo, Unlimited Waves
- Not-using patches for battles that require them
- Renaming plt files - let's say for XWA
Cheating cases:
There were no new cases this week, however I'm observing few pilots. I will probably have first results soon.
Remember, if you cheat better mail me and confess before I will find you. Noone will escape. And one note to
people who use Hold Steady in TIE ( making enemy ships all hold steady ). Yes, I know how to catch it, if you
think it's impossible to catch, expect mail from me soon.
Swearing on EH channels:
It has come to my attention that some people use lack of bot as good reason to swear on EH chanels. Listen to me
loud and clear. This is not going to happed. If I will see you swearing, I will warn you. Next time, you will get
kick, and 3rd offense is tempban. Be good, m'kay?
Rate the battles you fly:
When you complete mission/battle rate it. Soon there will be competition for those who write good reviews.
Also, I won't tolerate any personal wars. If you don't like the creator, don't even try to lower rating of every
good battle. That will only result in your HCI case. So be good :)
Bug reports:
I think you should understand what is bug:
- Ships with Hold Steady order (unless stated in mission it's correct, of ship is wreck, etc)
- Ships crashing and ramming one into another
- Capital ships with fighter orders
- Grammar errors
- Swearing (this is also violation of CoCs)
Final word:
My office is always open, and you can find me on IRC. Don't hesitate to ask or mail me. Visit Tactical channel
#tac and ask question there. Cya next week
