Greeting Members ":)

In the RS' first ever XvT WoW, we finished 18th out of 37 clubs. That's pretty decent, and hopefully with our club's new found experience under our belts, we can improve upon our finish in the future.

Overall, I was pretty pleased with our performance. It was solid. I was however, hoping that more people would have participated, but it is an odd time of year with school starting up again and everything.

Without further ado, here are the results...

====================

====================
INDIVIDUAL SCORES

There was also an individual performance that helped to spearhead our fight. Without this pilot's effort, the RS would have finished near the bottom. LCL Han "Nate" Suul was the only RS pilot to finish in the Top 50. Keep in mind that 424 players played in this event.

Nate finished in 35th place overall, with a rating of 76.04, the highest rating acheived by any RSer in any WoW to date. He also played 71 matches, which is unbelievable. In those 71 matches, Nate was 43-22. That is an awesome record. He had a 2.09 games W/L ratio, a 2.30 player W/L ratio, and a K/D ratio of 1.23. Nate led the RS in each of these catergories. Excellent job, Nate, and keep up the good work!

CONCLUSION

We did pretty well for our first XvT WoW, but we can always do better. One of the RS' greatest strengths in these events is our activity. We always seem to have a high number of participants in competitions, and that will always go a long way in helping us finish stronger. Keep flying and practicing for the next WoW, its just around the corner. Practice as much as you can, its the only way to get better.

So, until next time, lock and load and get out and practice!
