Tempest Squadron Weekly Report
 
(2.17.2002)
Another week another report. Tempest STILL rocks! Details are below, so keep on reading for the most informational report since the last Tempest Squadron Report.
 
 Tempest Squadron Orders
Not much is happening at the beginning of the week, but starting wednesday we're going to be doing a wing-wide game. I still have to read the rules, but I'll send you more tomorrow. Keep your eyes out for it.
  • Take a few minutes to tackle an IWATS course or do a little recruiting. We now have a server that supports ASP, so that would be a great IWATS course to take, if you have a good understanding of HTML.
  • Fly a battle to keep warm. There are lots to choose from and most of them are kinder and gentler than TC-180. ;-D

     News

    Fleet News

  • Project Hawkeye has been released. If you like clandestine activity, check it out at http://www.ehnet.org/~hawkeye/.
  • Some other stuff happened, but not much that pertains to us. Check out all the headlines at TIECorps.org
  • Wing News

  • Get ready for a different style of competition this week as we start a little wing-wide war game. Again, I have yet to read the rules, but I'll work through 'em and send ya some information on it and a copy of the rules tomorrow so that we're all on equal footing. This little break is the perfect opportunity to take care of a small battle or a couple of free missions! :-D
  • Squadron News

  • Congrats again to Tempest on the win in the competition. Even though we didn't quite get perfect participation, I'm still quite impressed with out performance on such a hard battle. Thanks goes out to Master for helping to arrange this comp.
  • Congratulations especially goes to Rover, who got the high score in the competition and a bunch of other high scores to boot! Your shiny new medal will be on it's way soon. :-D
