News
4 exams out the way, just have 2 left - on Thursday and Friday. I should hopefully be around a bit more this week. However for some reason my irc is having problems so i may not be able to get onto it. Im there in spirit though...
Massive news for the fleet this week. Former COO Khameir Sarin has been named as XO
Congratulations to Kadon Beir, who this week was promoted to Major!
Also the MSE medals went through this week so well done to everyone who got one.
We welcome several new faces to the ship this week. Big welcomes to Araujo and Flint Darkstar, both of whom have earned there LT promotion already, and to CM Etras Aglen!
Activity is looking really good this week so well done to everyone taking part.
Two run-ons started in the mb, there will no doubt be medals involved when we come to some sort of conclusion.
The new CMDRs that were chosen havnt replied to my emails. Because of my lack of time i havnt been able to follow it up. However i will be doing that this week and it is conceivable i will have to reopen the positions for apps again. To the two squadrosn involved i send my sincerest apologies, if you have any problems you know you can come to myself or Chris.
Imperial Storm has started in earnest and we are already engaging a fleet from the Sov for control of Mon Calamari. So make sure you are all ready to fly when the time comes.
Ive decided to take the activity section out of my report, since you get it from Chris and your CMDRs anyway. So ill just be mentioning in the news section anything notable.
