Merit Marks.

The new merit system is now in place the details are:

All pilot files submitted by a pilot will receive a point for each mission completed in the battle. So if you complete a 6-mission battle, then you will receive 6 merit points.

For competitions there will be a set amount of points given to each pilot that participates, along with the points for the number of completed missions, entries, etc. for that competition.

Medals aware awarded after a set number of points has been amassed:

Dark Cross (DC) - 60 Merit points

War Cross (WC) - 150 Merit points

I have put the merit marks in your activity reports, please contact me if you think they are wrong, theses merit marks are calculated from when I took command of Sub-Zero.

Spectre of the Past

Out of nowhere, Tarentum's ships are attacked while on a recon mission far from their base. The attackers are supposedly a pirate group, however, there was no Force signature the Sith could detect prior or during the attack. Something powerful blocks out the Force imprints of the attackers.

A few days later, the Tarentum Phyles, guarded by a group of Obelisk, are attacked during an archaeological expedition on a world not far from the Gladius base. The attackers seemed to be after the transport they came with. Not caring who they kill in the process. As with the attackers on the ships, their Force signatures are suppressed. Every killed attacker carries a small golden amulet forming the head of a dragon – artifacts that suppress the Force imprints.

Since the connection is obvious, a search is conducted...

Phase 1 will release Saturday, 23rd for the writers and MP and Friday the 1st for SP, given that DGM Astatine approves the settings.

Co-judge for writings events is KAP Kaiann. SP missions will be checked by our dear SHW.

Get ready! Everyone can do everything, no Order limitations. Kumba, even you can do something :o)

Humor

George W. Bush was giving a third-grader a lesson on politics. First he asked the kid to write "The President" on the blackboard.

Then Bush asked the child what he thought the President should accomplish and the child replied, "Protect the environment and clean up the air."

Dubya countered, "Why should the clouds be white and the water be blue when they could be all kinds of cool colors? Is that so terrible. Can't we agree on it? Can you spell "Is" and "We"?

The boy spells out "Is" then "We" on the blackboard.

"My friends at the oil companies can make chemicals to make trees tall. If fact, they already did. Can you write, "tall" and "did"?

The boy writes the words on the blackboard.

"Now young man, what have you learned from your talk with the President?"

The boys stands up and reads what he has written on the blackboard aloud: "The President is we tall did."
