GEN_Fury | Hey Kids! |
GEN_Fury | Was hoping for a better turnout, but most of the people I really want here are here, so let's get to it. |
GEN_Fury | Today's meeting is going to cover the Holiday competition primarily but first a few notes. |
GEN_Fury | First off, in looking towards some potential gaming competitions, the new poll asks what game you would like to see played. |
GEN_Fury | The first one or two top vote getters will be considered for a possible gaming night series in the future. |
GEN_Fury | I am also hoping to roll out some squad stories soon or have SLs do that so those of you who are more into the writing have something to do. |
GEN_Fury | What else? Oh, I really have been meaning to get some more items added to the store, so expect the occasional new item from time to time. |
GEN_Fury | One more thing. The new academy website has (finally) been uploaded. Oops on my part. |
GEN_Fury | And now onto the exciting part of the meeting. |
GEN_Fury | We start it off with a series of promotions earned before, during, and after our competition. |
GEN_Fury | Our first one goes to an officer who has long since deserved the honor. Therefore, join me in congratulating Cosmic as he rises to the rank of High Colonel. |

GEN_Fury | Congratulations Cosmic. You've seriously earned this one. |
GEN_Fury | I'm going to lump the rest of the promotions into a list, but I want to point out that two of the troopers here have done a fantastic job over the past couple months and are truly deserving of their promotions. |
