Kappa Report # 27 (2001-03-18)
This report was submitted by MAJ Astarosta
I'm in the middle of a Geekish Saturation Syndrome. Please stay away from me. I can be dangerous to your mental health. And phisical too, hey here in this universe we have actual functional lightsabers. Again stay away from me. Or at least give me some of that piece of chocolate gungan I have on my room. Don't tell Inky, cause I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS!!
*Disclaimer: the phrase "I have a bad feeling about this" and all the posterior fast paced surprise action sequences involving Star Wars related characters are owned by some big executive guy from Lucasfilm and are only allowed to be used when the guy that says it actually has a bad feeling or sumthin. Otherwise, criminal prosecution with the full extent of the law and some more will be made until you become a Battlestar Galactica fan and not a Star Wars one*
Sorry, I just finished seeing the 4 Star Wars movies together for the first time. :p
Squadron News
-SL TK-9135 joins Kappa! welcome dude! it is a pleasure to have you here so you can polish the floors. Yeah, I know the decomposing body over there may be hard to remove, but you are young. :p j/k
Anyway, you are welccome to Kappa, and a party on your honor will be held and paid by YOU! :p
-And that will be a double party! for having completed a great INPR inmediately after joining, you are promoted to LT! Congrats! Another Paycheck!
-Well, let's make it a triple. Last time we had one of these, I remember that I woke up in the morning married to Melissa the Hutt. Yah, it was wild. But anyway, the little hutt kid is NOT mine.Erm...I think :p
Well, the triple party will be made because our own Graphics Designer has been promoted! Congratulations LCM Tempest!!
-Tempest has been busy designing some possible replacements for the Imperial logo. Unfortunately, our GA Ronin thought they were too close to the original Imperial logo ;( Anyway, great work! I think they are cool!
-The inter squadron comp rival is still to be found. LCM Tim suggested that Zeta could be our rival as it was his and Algaron's old squad. I'll (again, I'll) be contacting Zeta's CMDR to see what he thinks. Announcements will be made when there is a reason to make announcements :p
-The Wing II Pilot League is on its 4th round! Yah! Check out the Orders section for the assignament. On more comp statuses (?) the FCHG race with Wing VI is still on, and I want to mention the participation od LT Dunkat, who is flying extra specially for this.
-This week's Ol' Roasty's word o' advice: "If you watch the 4 Star Wars movies in a row, your Geekoline level in blood will exceed the normal limits and you will have a case of Fake Lightsaber Swinging and Lightsaber Sound Making seizure. Word from the Doc. Ah, and Luke, I'm your father."

Miscellaneous
- XWA TCC's sought
XWA TCC's are being sought. Interested applicants
should contact TCC:Crix Madine ASAP. Applications
close Tuesday.
- New IO Site Features
1. Ever wanted to ask the IO a question, but were
too lazy to open your email client, or too affraid
to ask non-anonymously? Well now you can "Ask The
IO" questions about the EH, Internet, websites,
and other related questions by going to the "Ask
The IO" page.
2. Got a good idea for an IO Poll? Now you can
submit your suggestions for consideration by going
to the "Suggest An IO Poll" page.
Thanks go out to VA Ari for these two ideas! :-)
- TC/NC profile merging
At the time being, please hold on making the TC/NC
profile merging requests (as discussed in XO
Report #4) until a solid procedure is put into
place on how this will be accomplished.
- EH: Images Archive Updated!
The Emperor's Hammer: Images Archive (EH:IA) has
been updated withall the backlogged image
submissions I have recieved since the site waslast
updated. Please go check out the EH:IA, and if you
have any images tosubmit, please send them to io@absolutek.com.
- Naval Corps closing
As will be discussed in XO Report #4:
Over time, the Naval Corps has become nothing more
than a clone of the TIE Corps XWA wings with a
different command structure. It has been under the
agreement of GA Ronin, myself, and several other
key commanding officers that the Naval Corps will
completely close down when the new EH Database is
activated.
As of right now, Echo Company is closed and any
current Echo Company cadets completing training
will automatically be assigned to a TIE Corps
X-Wing Alliance wing. Eventually, all clones of TC
members in the Naval Corps will be eliminated as
well. Anyone who is not a clone is encouraged to
start looking for a X-Wing Alliance wing
(Sovereign Wing III, ISD Immortal, or ISD
Vanguard) to transfer to.
Anyone "left behind" when the Naval Corps closes
will automatically go to the reserves until they
make a transfer request. The future of the Naval
Corps is being discussed behind closed doors at
the moment.
