GRUDGE MATCH
This week:
Optical Mice
vs
Starting Fires With The Power of Your Mind
With your hosts - Kessler and CoHo
Kessler: Hey CoHo, check out my new optical mouse. Is uses lightwaves and particles and photons and stuff to read where my hand is moving, because it is smarter. That's right, we've entered the age of Inteligent machines, and my new mouse is one of them. It doesn't even need a mousepad. It READS the very DESKTOP. It's like a genius. My new mouse rules. I can crank up the sensitivity like a sensitive lover puttin' on the slow jazz. That's right. My new mouse OWNS YOU. You are weak! I'm serious. This thing is incredible. Let's talk about the smoother response, and the lack of the mousepad, and the no-needing of the cleaning of it, or something to that effect. I'll have to read the manual. My point is: MY NEW OPTICAL MOUSE IS AMAZING, and you, sir, with your freakish mental mutant powers, are inferior. That's right. I have a new optical mouse, and all you have is an old mouse with -- why yes, look here -- a dirty, dusty, grungy ball. That's weak. You're a weak little man. What are you gonna do about that, huh fatty? How's it feel to be a sissygirl, hmmm pansyboy? Huh? Huh?
[Kessler bursts into flames]

Gentlemen, start your engines.
The Squadron League season will be upon us as soon as GN Wolly recovers from Christmas, and that means you lazy bums will be expected to do NOTHING other than fly and win the League until the smoke clears and the dust settles. Once again, anything extra you want to d is great, but I don't expect anything apart from 200% effort for the League. And once that's over...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tornado Supremacy Tour
Yep, we'll be back on the warpath again. So far it's Battlegroups 2 - Tornado 5, with only Typhoon and Iota Squadrons beating us so far. Our next targets are the ISD Relentless again, and by a strange twist of fate, Iota Squadron recently transferred whole to Wing IX and are now known as Hammer Squadron, ISD Relentless! This means we get some payback, and we can prove to ourselves that Iota's win first time round was fluke ;)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Battlegroup Ace Pilot
Our very own CM Xyrryc (even though VA Jarak keeps calling him CPT) is defending his title against none other than COL Val "Nimrod" Ricaud. I've seen Xyrryc's score and it's scary! Remember to chew before you swallow, Xyrryc ;)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jerry Returns from the Dead
The rumours of LCM Jerry's demise were greatly exaggerated. While it's true that all that remains of his original PC are a few burn marks on his desk, Jerry is back up and running with his trusty P200.
P200? Eeeeeewww.
We won't expect him to be playing XWA any time soon, then ;)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wing Combat Ratings
Multiplayer Combat ratings are now available at the TIE Corps Rosters on a Wing by Wing basis. Wing X's entry reveals that none other than COLONEL KESSLER is the Wing X TopGun.
Damn, that's sad :P
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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:
FM / LCM Jerry
He's not dead! He's just resting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ewok of the Week
Yub Yub!
Every story has a hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks' Prize Ewok is none other than:
Wing X
For being worse multiplayer pilots than Old man Kessler
