Battleground Interview 2: http://www.zdnet.com/gamespot/stories/news/0,10870,2690822,00.html
Squadron Management 2 has finally made it to the 500 graduate mark. This makes SM/2 the 4th most taken course (only narrowly beating IIC/1 on 496).
Just as a reminder, I need your TC.org and ORDB PINS mailed to me at slookabill@home.com(one time) if you want credit for Outer Rim wins! This is to save time for awarding LoC's and credit to TC.org.
Keep in mind that the punishment for cheating for FIRST TIME OFFENDERS is a demotion to Sub-Lieutenant, loss of all medals (except the OV), loss of all high scores, and a perm-ban (which applies to all clones as well) off the battle board and FCHG system. Repeat offenders are expelled.
The rule is simple: One pilot file for one PIN # only. Don't share your pilot file with friends. Don't share your pilot file with clones to try to get double the credit for the work done.
People wishing to apply for the position of PREX of the Corporate Division should e-mail High Admiral Kawolski.
The removal form now properly e-mails the removed pilot's superior officers.
The promotion request form has been fixed so you can make promotion requests for pilots with multiple positions.
Just a note that if you submit a competition. If you are not giving out any medals for it, make it clear that this is so. The best way is to put "No medals will be awarded" in the submission. If you do not make it clear, your competition will be denied.

The FCHG system is currently being worked on. As a result, the squadron listings and individual personnel profiles may stop working for a short amount of time.
| Old System | New System |
| Copper Ribbon | Bronze Wings |
| Nickel Ribbon | Silver Ribbon |
| Bronze Ribbon | Silver Wings |
| Silver Ribbon | Gold Ribbon |
| Gold Ribbon | Gold Wings |
| Platnium Ribbon | Platnium Wings |
The Iron Star is awarded for winning a Training Office-approved competition. There are two types of add-ons depending on the type of competition. For all Flying competitions, Wings are awarded. For all Non-Flying competitions, Ribbons are awarded. The type of Wings or Ribbon awarded is dependent on the size of the competition.
Bronze - 1st place in a competition involving at least 6 pilots, runner-up award for Silver competitions, 3rd place/participating award for Gold or Platnium competitions
Silver - 1st place in a competition involving 4 or more squadrons or task units, 2nd place award for Gold or Platnium competitions
Gold - 1st place in a competition involving 3 or more wings/task forces.
Platinum - Training Office competition
Wings are worth FCHG points (1,3,5,10 pts respectively) but Ribbons are not.
Now, some people received awards during the first run of the Iron Star change. Your medal has been converted to the appropriate type. Check your personnel profile to see.
The FCHG point system hasn't been updated yet. I will be changing it today in an effort to redo and fix the FCHG system on the database without having to rely on moving to the new server.
I really don't think I have to elaborate here. DM test 1 has been released. Check the files section for details. A few comments though. We have limited the scope of this DM test on purpose to better focus on the core design of the TC, namely force use, saber use, and weapon use together with player movement. Therefore the lack of levels among other things. Don't worry though, this is where DM #2 will make your day =) Untill the however, why not do some mapping or modeling for you favorite mod? The Star Wars Universe surely offers a plethora of ideas... In any case, feel free to comment on the mod and send me bug reports or thought. I'm just happy we finally released something. Best of wishes.
Star Wars Quake is about 25 MB large and requires Quake II v3.20 to play. Download it here: http://swtc.telefragged.com/files.html
The Quake II v3.20 patch can be downloaded here: http://www.planetquake.com/quake2/files.shtml
It comes in low-res (320) and hi-res (480) versions which are pretty big in size, but worth the download!

After the resignation of Admiral Slage, Admiral Keiran Idanian, former CA:FC, is the newly appointed RO. Congratulations.
EH wins it's first BattleStats Week of War medal (first BSC medal period).
Special congrats go to pilots Colonel Dras Hempor/Immortal and Major Brucmack/Grey Wolf for bring this medal home to EH.
I hope this is a sign of more BSC medals to come.
Naval Staff is Currently Offline, so please do not take the test :)
We're currently redoing the test, and it should be back up sometime in the next 3 weeks.
However, I did add position badges (thanks to VA Goatham for submitting the pictures) for Naval Corps personnel on their profiles.
Intrepid Commodore Pel selected Major Brakka, formerly CMDR of Valkyrie Squadron, to lead Wing XIV. We trust Major Brakka will lead Wing XIV to unprecidented heights of fame and glory.
