INTREPID BATTLE GROUP NEWSLETTER - OCTOBER 6th, 2002
REPORTED BY COL GABRICH VARMER, IBG ACO
------------------------------------------------------


"And does this actually change anything?" Colonel Gabrich Varmer said, looking at the letter.

"No. You're now officially ACO. Previously you weren't, though you acted like it," Rahj said.

"Ah, great."

"Do you have anything against useless paperwork? It's my job you know."

"No, of course not sir."

"Very well. What is Deltan's current status?"

Gabrich pressed a button. A screen suddenly showed Delt sitting in the same place he was in the last NL Narrative :P. He didn't move at all, and he just looked at the wall in front of him.

"Based on what we've seen over the last month," Gab said, "I can tell you his current status, and probably his future status as well."

"I see." Rahj said. "Keep doing your job and it'll be all well. How was the last mission?"

"My report is on your desk. We managed to get our ships in with few losses."

"Excellent. The next step?"

"Soon..."

IBG/R2F 104 RESULTS

Well, well, well... We've had many resignations and stuff this time, and people getting into college, so activity has decreased a bit. Just 20 reports this time, which is not quite good. Still we have a half acceptable excuse. Just make sure you make me happier next time, or else I'll turn your life into a real he- uh, I mean I'll be very sad. :P

------------------------------------------------------
NEW MEMBERS
------------------------------------------------------

Everyone welcome in our new mates. No pranking on them, at least for now OK? ::glances at the evil WildCards::

Avel Hava, to Draco.
Neo Fayde, to Phalcun
Kem "Zilch" Chrosid comes back from retirement and joins Wildcard. You can prank on this one, since he's not a newbie anymore. :P

------------------------------------------------------
PARTING MEMBERS
------------------------------------------------------

Let's remember those who have left us recently, and hope them the best outside the IBG. Our door is always open, guys.

Gagra Yearwood, Cephisus Balder, Topachea Nabirrire, from Phalcun, and even Rakiki the squad CO, have all resigned.

Wesley Rademaker has been somehow 'dropped' in the way. Nothing has been heard of him for too long, and his responsabilty positions are being or will be filled.

------------------------------------------------------
MELEES
------------------------------------------------------

Okay, this week there was ONE match, the results of which I didn't even get. There was noone operating the bot when I came in, and the previous week there wasn't even a melee. So. If you vets don't want a melee, perhaps the new members will still want one, so please, I *do* want someone with a melee bot there to run the event, ok? Kell, you've been difficult to find lately. Dash, you should get a copy of the bot and be ready to run the melee sometimes. I will be there as many times as I can.

Here goes a reminder. In case you forgot what a melee is. :P

Pilots, new and old, there is (or should be) a melee every saturday on #ibg (any Undernet server of IRC), in which people fly pilots from other squads to see which one gets the most wins. Those matches are rewarded with merit points.
Get there, and fly for your squad.

------------------------------------------------------
ANNOUNCEMENTS
------------------------------------------------------

-Colonel Jon Anchorage has taken over as Phalcun CO after Rakiki left his office.

-An IBG IO, and a CO for the Domination League are needed after Wes's disappearance. Applications are to be sent to the whole Fleet CS, that is deltan_savriri@yahoo.com, varmer@gmx.net and jon@skavanger.freeserve.co.uk. Remember to include your curriculum and experience in the RS, any interesting skills and the usual stuff I ask for. :P

-Talon Wing, Stinger Squadron and Draco Squadron have no XO. The COs of those units should contact me and fill me with what is happening, or what is going to happen, with those positions.

-Major Cephisus Balder, though retired from the IBG as a pilot, will serve still as ITOD Team CO. He will need more mission makers though, contact him at cephisus@gmx.net if you are interested.

-Delt's disappearance has caused some major delays in the Awards Ceremony for TOD 3. Don't worry, we'll get one sooner or later. :)

------------------------------------------------------
FROM THE DESK OF THE ACO
------------------------------------------------------

Wha...? Ah yes. This is where I get to congrat you guys when I'm happy or pleased with your overall performance and all. Well. Come back next month then. :P
Kidding. :P

Just remember our minds are always open for suggestions and new ideas to make this fleet funnier and a more exciting place.
That's all.
