Brother Jedi Hunter Phalk Sturm reporting for this week's activity.

NEWS

This email is sent in non-HTML format because of a dangerous virus alarm, Brother Gord Darkonian (our Proconsul for those living in a sealed jar), has comunicated throughout the house of deleting whatever message you get from this person madeleine@globetrotter, and certainly avoiding any handling with all its attachments whatsoever. So beware people, get yourself a good disinfection...

Sithy Claus and his Evil Xmas are still on us, but I didn't get any lightsabers so far, what about you? A board with a nail on it?

Take a good break and enjoy yourselves, as the year to come smells like napalm in the morning, (victory...)

COMPETITIONS

The Design a Bad Guy comp is still on, go check it out until Jan 1. at http://www.imperialacademy.org/comps/badguy

No flying comps are running until the Holiday comps are over. Our Quaestor is planning to build up a bi-weekly flying comp to keep us Sith people busy. So relax while you can.

MERIT SYSTEM

Anyone wanting to get a better looking ATR are free to mail me every week with a list of everything they done (DB related of course). I am sending reports on Mondays, so last day for submitting any material is Sunday evening. If somehow I forgot to add anything you did during this week, let me know immediately and those changes will be expressed on next week's report.
