Greetings ":)

In the 20th installment of the Inter-Club Melee, the UCFP won their first melee, with lots of help from the RS. Those who we're present will know why.

Anyway, it was still a decent melee, but paricipation seems to be lacking from the other clubs. I was pleased with the RS turnout, it was readily apparent that we are the most active club attending the melee. But, we can always use more players. So show up if you have the time to spare and help support the RS.

And here are the latest results...

For now, the rules from the last ORW (http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/outerrim/rules.htm) should serve as the general guideline for any rules for this event, but the most important one is to use good judgment.

For JK2 matches: 10 minutes, highest score wins.
For XWA and XvT matches: 10 minutes or 5/5, highest total score wins.

====================
CONCLUSION

As always, I have one main message for everyone. MP gaming is on the rise in the RS. Make sure that you are apart of this fact. Practice, play, and compete as much as you can. We're on the right path, but there is still lots of work yet to be done.

Until next time, lock and load for next week!
