<FA_Fel> Greetings Imperial Officers and Citizens, and welcome to the 32nd GE:ER Meeting!
<FA_Fel> Official Rosters currently stand at 143 active Imperials, with an overall membership count of 884 officers...!
<FA_Fel> As per usual, please do NOT message myself or other chanOPs with announcements until invited to do so...
<FA_Fel> That said, I have the honour of beginning announcements...
<FA_Fel> -= News from the Office of the Supreme Commander =-
<FA_Fel> 1) Commandant Leave Over
<FA_Fel> As I mentioned in a previous meeting, VA Zwibble would be returning to duty, and she has done so.
<FA_Fel> (In fact, she is even attending the meeting today!)
<FA_Fel> If you have any outstanding exams or certifications that have been submitted several weeks prior but have not yet been processed, you may send her an inquiry to ask about their status.
<FA_Fel> --
<FA_Fel> 2) Ladders Extended
<FA_Fel> The Summer ladders were low on activity, and after a one month pause, I have elected to extend the ladders to the end of the year - thus all ladders now have an end date of 2007-12-31.
<FA_Fel> Happy gaming!
<FA_Fel> --
<FA_Fel> 3) MB Upgrade Complete
<FA_Fel> As promised in the last meeting, the GE Main Message Boards were updated to the latest version of the CBACK/ORION software.
<FA_Fel> --
<FA_Fel> 4) IS.net Hosting Move Complete!
<FA_Fel> The move of the ImperialSquadrons.net boards has taken place without any trouble and everything is now in order once again...
<FA_Fel> --
<FA_Fel> 5) Inter Club Training Event (ICTE)
<FA_Fel> The GE has won the last SEVEN of the Inter-Club Training Events - and we are planning to keep this streak going as long as we can. Get into #outerrim and win for the GE!
<FA_Fel> -= End of Section =-
<FA_Fel> VA JaggedFel, news from the Navy today? Or the IDMR?
<VA_JagFel> Both sir
<FA_Fel> Please proceed.
<VA_JagFel> -= Imperial Navy News =-
<VA_JagFel> 1. Current Navy membership is 58 (-2) Officers, with 30 (-23) Cadets in the Academy.
<VA_JagFel> --
<VA_JagFel> 2. Rosters and AWOL Check results
<VA_JagFel> You'll notice the large drop in cadets since the last meeting, this is in part because many of them were placed, while others continued the trend of fading away in a roster sweep. Unfortunately, we were able to place many of those cadets because of the large number of vacancies that opened during the AWOL check, mainly in the Frigates.
<VA_JagFel> It doesn't take much to avoid being cleaned out, but I would prefer more activity than just the required "I'm here" emails every 10 days.
<VA_JagFel> --
<VA_JagFel> 3. Imperial Archives
<VA_JagFel> COL Longstreet is seeking help mainly from the older officers with history of the GE. If you have any information regarding TCs, the Legion, Survey Corps and Recon Dep, etc (dates would be nice as well) please pass it on so it may be recorded in the Archives :)
<VA_JagFel> --
<VA_JagFel> 4. Activity
<VA_JagFel> With VA Zwibble's return, many exams and certifications have been processed recently. If you're still missing something, please speak up so it may be resolved.
<VA_JagFel> --
<VA_JagFel> 5. ICTE
<VA_JagFel> As FA has said, and I'm sure BRG Burton will mention, play ICTE!
<VA_JagFel> -= IDMR News =-
<VA_JagFel> - YOGEME now handles the system image properly, which is more than I say about how TFW handles it ;)
<VA_JagFel> - With that out of the way, work will resume on the map interface to bring it to a usable point.

<VA_Zwibble> Freedom? :P
<Xayun> NO FREEDOM FOR YOU! </freedomnazi> :P
<VA_JagFel> well, it's not really freedom for us, since we hold the mighty @ of power anyway :P
<LGN_Branet> My excuses for the problem in my report. Usually work with Mirc, but now I use Pirch98....;-)
<FA_Fel> Indeed.
<FA_Fel> Well, we have had good attendance today.
<LGN_Branet> 20...
<LGN_Branet> 19...
<FA_Fel> Seems there's a shortage of questions for us today.
<VA_JagFel> or a shortage of people who aren't idle :P
<FA_Fel> Ostensibly.
<VA_Zwibble> What is the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything? :P
<BRG_Burton> 42!
<BRG_Burton> Shall I change my nick to MB-1 now? :P
<VA_Zwibble> May He touch you with His noodly appendage.
<VA_Zwibble> No, you get FSM blessings instead of points :P
<BRG_Burton> Fair enough.
<SGOV_Vort> I want spaghetti now. Does that mean I can now call me "Vortagh, Destroyer of Gods"?
<FA_Fel> And seeing no further discussion, I declare it time to close the log.
<FA_Fel> Thanks for attending, everyone.
