Tempest Squadron Weekly Report #26 – 05th of August 2005


***~Introductory Note~***

Hey, everyone. We got one of our best pilots back this week......Welcome back to CM Prost Varsis.....or is it LCM Prost Varsis....this is a mess.....anyway, its nice to have a former COM in our roster, hehehe!!!!!!!

With P not being the COM anymore, we have a new Commodore.....welcome to VA Maverick, and good luck to him with us lunatics....

Other news this week is that we came in third place in the ISD Challenge Domination Bonanza.....It’s a fair spot, but I’m always in a bad mood when Tempest takes a position below its capacity....which is, of course, first place....But, we are in a middle of a squadron renewal, and I am glad with the results so far.

The greatest thing about this competition is that we were considered the most active squadron, which fills me with pride.....You did well, and you deserve the medals in your inboxes....congrats!!!

On another results, I won the trivia and the XWA-Golf, and came in third place in fiction. And also Tempest came overall third place in Citations Race, which is very good, considering we are the biggest squadron, and that makes more difficult for us to get citations, and you all did well in that matter, congrats!!!

Imperial Storm is very, very near to an ending......While it is still going on, I’ll keep the link below posted.....but don’t bother too much...if anything comes up I’ll tell you :)

***~Squadron News~***

* Prost is back....welcome home, my friend!!!

* Tempest came in third place in the ISD Challenge Domination Bonanza, congrats to us all!!!!

* Squadron Standing Orders: every week I want you to do one of the following:
- Fly something from the Mission Compendium
- Participate on Tempest Tie Fighter Tactics Workshop: pick a Free-Mission and lets get to it
- Take an IWATS Course
- Write some fiction
- Create a graphic
- Submit something for the Squadron Report (Fiction, graphics, garbage, etc)

* Recruitment
Tempest is already the biggest squadron in the wing, but there are still two spots available in the squadron....go recruit, and we will make history in the Tie Corps...and you will also get a medal....

I am offering an ISM per recruit (Cadet and RSV's alike) and a PC per 5 recruits, so there’s a chance for you to get lots of medals and to help not only the squad but also the wing.

* Fly a Free mission......or a battle if you dare

***~Dark Lord of the Week~***

The highly prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the person who has most advanced the success of the Squadron, amused the CMDR, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag. This week's winner is:

LCM Prost Varsis, for coming back to the best squadron in the fleet!!!!


***~Ewok of the Week~***

Yub Yub!

Every story has a hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's Prize Ewok is none other than:

The Ewok himself.....read the fiction :)


***~Quote of the Week~***

Jarek: “Surely the top 2 should pull out for "irregularities" :P
Go Tempest!”

I like Jarek’s ideas :)


***~Final Comments~***

Good work in the wing comp to every pilot that have participated in it, you’ve made me proud.....And next time we will definitely win!!! Go Tempest!!!! Good weekend to you all!
