Greetings everyone,

Announcements/Reminders:
Congratulations to Gavin Kravis and Guybrush Threepwood who have been appointed Commanding and Executive Officers of Red Dragon Squadron as of this week.

Currently, there still are no plans to appoint anyone to a position on the Command Staff or Marshal CO.

XvT Wow 101 will begin Friday, Dec 15. As always, participation is highly encouraged.

Also don't forget you can get your MP on during the weekend as well. The ICTE is every Saturday from 12:00 EST - 24:00 EST in #outerrim. Since its been literally months since someone from the RS participated, I would look very favorably on those who took the time to try to fly in the ICTE.

Lastly, remember that VSG 101 is due on Dec 30 at 23:59pm EST. For those of you who didn't participate in 604/605 or 411/412 participation in mandatory in order to remain a part of the VSG.

And now for the part everyone really want to read, here are the standings for Week 1 of December:

Squadron Rankings:
1. Phalcun - 28
2. Ragnarok - 24
3. Dragon - 21
4. Red Dragon - 20
5. Resurrection - 18
6. Dagger - 4

Individual Rankings:
1. Michael Raven - 12
2. Harley Quinn - 12
3. Gavin Kravis - 12
4. Phil DarkFire - 12
5. David Pasienchnyk - 10

Confused about how I got these scores? As I've said before, Top Gun and Top Squadron are now based on total monthly activity for a squadron or individual. The totals are calculated using the merit points earned in a given month. There are of course bonuses based on performance on the missions, but those aren't included until the very end.

Remember, if you have any questions, email me or come to me on IRC and let me know. I can't address your concerns if you don't let me know you have any.

I think that's everything. Good luck to everyone taking finals, term assessments/exams or whatever you call them.
