ASFBGCOM and ISD GreyWolf Com Selected!

I have selected a new ASF BGCOM and a new ISD Grey Wolf Com. I realize that it has only been two days since I posted for applications, but I didn't give a deadline for a reason...I wanted to see who was the most interested in the positions and who has the online frequency need for the positions, especially for the ASF BGCOM position.


With this in mind I have selected VA Gidda as the next ASF BGCOM.


 

For the ISD GreyWolf, the current WC, LC Crimsonfury has been promoted to the rank of RA and given command of the Grey Wolf!


Congrats to both!

This week we had a 3 way match in light of CM Fahrer's late appearance in the Iron Mission Creation competition. It was between LC Mouse Droid, LC Ric Taldrya and CM Fahrer.

It was a hard fought battle in front of a very large crowd in the #TAC channel which results in the release of XvT Free 184, XvT Free 185 and TIE Free 254.
The winner of the match was Commander Fahrer who, even though arrived 1 hour late managed to create a very very good TIE mission. He will advance to the Semi Finals. The schedual for the semi-finals can be seen here.

Also, the Flying Challenge resumes for this week! the pilot who holds the high score for TIE Free 254 will be awarded the Iron Star!

Further, I'll be removing all Eidolon, Argosy and Rapax entries from our user list tonight. If you have not yet created an EH-F or EH-S pilot, now is your last chance. Please email me to get added.

The winner of the flying challenge was COL Brucmack again! Medals were reccomended.

Unfortunately, due to a few inconvenient circumstances we're going to have to wait until Friday for the release of these two missions, hence, there won't be a flying challenge this week. I suggest you all participate in the FO Comp instead.

New Tactical staff needed

AD Frodo

15 April, 2005 21:10
13 ABY
The Tactical Office is in need of new members for the TAC staff. I would like 3 new testers that are able to fly in each platform, as well as a new TCT for each platform. Requirements are as follows:

Tactical Surveyor (beta tester):
-Must own working versions of XvT, XWA and TIE
-Must be willing to work, TAC staff isn't a joke job to make your ID line longer, it is serious work and it is rewarded heavily should you work well.
-Proven flight activity
-Passed IWATS TACS

Tactician (Corrector):
-Must own working versions of at least one of the above
-Must have passed the IWATS mission creation course attached to the platform you plan on correcting for.
-Proven Mission Creation Knowledge, therefore, you must have at least sent in more then 1 battle/mission to the TAC office.
-Proven flight ability

I'm tired of asking for new staff, so this is likely to be the last one in a long time. Please only apply if you're sure you will work very hard for my staff.

Applications, as well as any questions can be sent to AD Frodo March and VA Master.

Good luck.
