-Hey there everyone! Well, I've returned from my leave feeling well rested and rejuvenated! I apologize if this report is a bit less than per normal, but I'm still getting back into the swing of things :) My email box was pretty trashed and there's a good chance I might have missed something, so if you sent me an email of importance and haven't gotten a response from it, feel free to send it on in again :)
That being said, I'm back and ready for buisness :) Thanks for Bol for taking care of things while I was gone :)
-As I said before, the Great Wing Bash was really only a training ground for a much larger competition... starting next week, be prepared for the Cantina Run V, or as it's commonly called, ECR V. As Battlegroup XO, I've been in charge of developing this comp for some time. Now I've been assigned to run it, and I do believe we have quite the competition for you guys :)
Here are the details...
The subject of ECR V is as follows. Each ship in the Battlegroup has been sent on training operations! For a period of four weeks(1 round each week totalling 4 rounds), ships within the Battlegroup will be faced off against each other. They will be assigned to run training exercises against each other, and the one that performs the best for each round will be announced as the winner! The one who performs the best will be declared the flagship!
This competition shall work on a basis of points.
Each week, each ship in the Battlegroup shall face off against another ship in the battlegroup. They will compete on two fields.
Single Player
Both a XWA mission and a TIE mission (of the same scenario and design) shall be assigned to each ship which is, while of equal value, customized for each ship.
For each platform...
15 points shall be awarded for Top Scorer
10 for the second place scorer
5 for the third place scorer
1 for each person who submits an entree
Multiplayer
Pilots of dueling ships are encouraged to bring the ship vs ship match of the current round to the MP field! Matches are encouraged to take place in #EH_coc, though they may occur anywhere as well as results are reported to myself (kevinsetzer@aol.com) and AD Krax Tarnisar (krax_tarnisar@yahoo.com).
4 points for a MP victory
2 points for participation in a MP match
There will also be 2 categories that are not bound by round, but overall events. Entrees for this can be created and submitted at anytime during the ECR, and are not restricted by which ship you are facing in a round.
Graphics
The subject of all imagery is to portray the ships of the BG working together to destroy a Rebel ship/outpost/planet/etc.
25 points for top Graphic submission
20 points for second place submission
10 for third place submission.
2 points for each person who submits an entree
All graphics shall be judged by the BGCOM
Fiction
The subject of fiction shall be to write a story about one of the ECR training exercises that is interrupted by an unforseen event that makes things go terribly wrong
25 points for top fiction submission
20 points for second place submission
10 for third place submission.
2 points for each person who submits an entree
Overall Points
30 points awarded for being the victorious ship in a round
20 points awarded for having the most participation of any ship in a round
Overall points are subject to change if an event in the ECR calls for a higher level of competition
BGCOM's Escort Squadron
The individual squadron that obtains the most points in all categories shall be considered the BGCOM's Escort Squadron. Each member of the squadron shall be awarded an IS-GW.
Awards
The overall SP top scorers(counting all top scores, not just the top scores in a round match) shall be awarded a IS-GW, IS-SW, and IS-BW respectively. Those who place in the Graphics and Fiction portion shall be awarded IS-GR, IS-SR, and IS-BR respectively.
All entrees and a printed listing of results are to be sent in to myselfand AD Krax by the ship's Commodore (or WC, if the COM delegates the authority to him/her) by midnight of Saturday, Eastern Standard Time, each week. At the same time, I shall announce who shall be facing off who and distributing the mission for this round.
The results of each round (and total results at the end of the comp) shall be announced Sunday afternoon.
This competition shall begin at 0:00 hours EST on Sunday, November 23rd. Each round shall be a week long. The competition will offically come to an end 0:00 hours, December 23rd.
On a personal note, COM's and WC's are encouraged to fly and compete in this competition. However, due to my high involvement in this competition, I shall be negating myself from any placement in any of the top scoring positions for SP, Graphics and Fiction (MP has no top scoring positions and thus I'll be willing to fly against others for it). COL Master, who helped develop the ECR V missions, will also be barred from any top scoring in the SP portion.
-That's quite a bit to think on! We'll be dedicating ourselves completely to this comp, so please, if you're not sure about details of it, feel free to email myself :)
Competitions
Ship Comps
Commodore's Protector: Continuing in this competition, each month I will choose the pilot I feel has served the Immortal the best over the past month and bestow upon him the title of Commodore's Protector, which he will retain until the next month when I pass the title on to another. While the title may be used in any email and TC transactions for the month the pilot retains it, they will also be awarded a IS-SR for obtaining the title for that month.
Squadron of the Month: Each month I will select a Squadron I believe has performed overall as a group (not a set of individuals) the best shall be awarded the title of Squadron of the Month. The CMDR of the Squadron of the Month shall be awarded a IS-SW for leading his squadron to that title, and the Squadron as a whole will be given a banner with their name and date of their accomplishment which may be posted on their website,
Wing XI Trivia: Every week, after the wing meeting, there will be trivia held. The pilot who wins the most weeks in a month wins an IS-SR. All others who win a week get IS-BRs.
No trivia this week. Tie still to be broke in private email trivia question
Wing Comps
Wing XI Pilot of the Month Comp: The pilot who flies the most, and is overall most active for each week will be awarded one point. The pilot with the most points for each month will receive an IS-SW. If there is a tie, both pilots will get an IS-SW. This will continue each month until January.
Beat the WC!: In the continuing fashion, our own WC, LC Triji Boliv, will accept any challenge from any member of the ship for any SP mission in TIE and XWA! If you win, you'll get yourself an IS-BW!

Final Thoughts
I apologize for a bit of a short-noticed leave, but I needed a bit of time to sort out r/l affairs before ECR started. This is going to be quite the big comp for all of you. Not only is it a chance to represent your ship, but it's a chance to push your squadron to it's fullest and attempt to show to all that you have the best squad in the BG! Be prepared to put your all into it, cause that's what we're going to need to win!
Respectfully Submitted,
