GM_Kadann | Welcome all to another Vast Empire meeting |
GM_Kadann | Looks like we have a large turnout today; thanks to everyone who came |
GM_Kadann | As you've all noticed the new bot in the channel |
GM_Kadann | I've been messing around with it and getting some basic functionality into it so it will perhaps some day be able to do something useful |
GM_Kadann | Make sure to get your lottery numbers in before next weekend as we'll have another lottery drawing then |
GM_Kadann | I've also been working on another application for the VE to use; more information on that as it develops |
GM_Kadann | Talon, you have something to report today? |
| * SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw steps forward |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Yes, thank you. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Well, I've about caught up on everything. It's time to start looking at our storylines. I was hoping that the Army and Navy would have continued Chapter 8, but it looks like I'm going to have to lead everyone to the waterhole on this one. It won't be for a bit, but expect to see the Chapter at least finished. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Lately the IRC server has needed some resetting. I'm still trying to tweak here and there so that I can leave it running for a while. Bear with me. I should be about done. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | For the Dark Jedi, we've got a few journeys lining up. Make sure you remain active so that I'm not forced to shelf them. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | That's all I have for today. Have a safe drive home and don't forget to tip your waitresses. |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Talon |
GM_Kadann | On to more division reports |
GM_Kadann | Rizzit, you have the Army report today? |
GM_Kadann | it appears he just left the keyboard |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | yes thank you |
GM_Kadann | oh...nm...continue |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | I intend to :p |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | anyways, I'm very pleased with the progress you all have made with the prefect story considering the bumpy start we had in the beginning |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | SSG_Kairo has drawn up a map of our locations and other information to help with the mission, it should be posted soon under the notes |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | Please keep up the current activity pace and maybe even increase it: co-ordinate posts when possible: and when all else fails refer to the datapad that you've all been given |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | Now, I mentioned this last week, and it seemed to have no effect; but I'm going to say it again |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | You all need to start sending in reports. I have 2 Squads currently reporting in, and other than what they did this week, most of the report is how many people didn't send in a report |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | Troopers, please send your reports into your Squad Leader and Assistant, Squad Leaders: please send your reports to your Platoon Commander and Adjutant |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | I'm going to have to start enforcing the fines if you don't start improving on this |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | now, on a happier note: |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | I've seen more gaming going on this week. Good work to those who have been playing. I've also noticed that Angel is looking into getting us another gaming server, so that should also increase activity along the lines of gaming. |
JRN_MAJ_Rizzit | That's it from me for this week: let's see what we can do about increasing our performance ;) |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Rizzit |
GM_Kadann | Shazam, you have the Navy report today? |
CWO_Shazam | Yea |
CWO_Shazam | Um... Well, I suppose one thing I can certainly say, is that the guys I've been watching over for the last couple of weeks.. |
CWO_Shazam | Well, they are doing insanely well, and if they keep it up, theres no telling what they could be accomplishing in the next few months, so watch out for those Navy recruits |
CWO_Shazam | As for squadron reports, I didn't see one for Kaph, but from what I've read on their topic, they're really just having a tough time getting on, very busy bunch of guys |
CWO_Shazam | Nazgul Squadron is doing fairly well considering the fact last week was kind of slow, no one really being able to do anything due to outside circumstances, myself included |
CWO_Shazam | However, the story we've had going, that is our infiltration of a scheme centered on Dubrillion, has just taken off |
CWO_Shazam | And, as hard as it is for these guys to get on and do whats requested, man do they step it up and just take it to the furthest point |
CWO_Shazam | I'm talking high quality in story post, real voice and understanding in the characters they write about, so all I've got to say is... Keep it up |
CWO_Shazam | You're looking at a fine set of your pilots, so, overall, good week... Going to be even better next week... |
CWO_Shazam | That's all I've got... |
CWO_Shazam | Awesome job guys |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Shazam |
GM_Kadann | Talon, you have something else you'd like to add? |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Yes, thanks |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | I was sitting here reading an email when it struck me.. Around here, people are content to use such horrid shorthand as "ur" and not care about their grammar and sentence structure. Yet when someone gets in trouble and is forced to email us, bowing down and kissing dirt, they turn into an English major. I know you guys can do it. I've seen it. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | While it is a bit two faced to make your words as flowery as what I'm reading now... I know you don't all talk like this... it makes you look that much more intelligent if you can form a coherent thought in a simple line of text. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Please... PLEASE at least care about your own image. It makes reading that much easier and makes you look good. Do it for yourself and do it for the VE. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | That's all. Thanks for letting me rant. |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Talon |
GM_Kadann | Angel, you have something to add to the meeting? |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | Yes, thank you Kad. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | I just wanted to follow up on a few announcements Rizzit had. First, the mission map is posted, and I need to give thanks to Kairo for doing a nice job with it. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | Second. Rizzit said that I was looking into a gaming server for the VE. This is true and I've been looking into it for sometime. I have finally found one that I believe would suit our immediate needs. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | However, since this involves me putting money into the VE, something I am not at all against doing, I ask that those of you that would be interested in using the server of regular basis to tell me so. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | I think that having a gaming server is an important thing for the VE, but I also don't want to be spending my hard earned money on something that no one will use. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | I started a thread on the Main Comnet, so those that wish for me to go through and set up the server, please post there. |
DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn | Thank you Kad. |
| * DJK_SGT_Angel|acorn steps down from the podium |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Angel |
GM_Kadann | Shazam, you had something else you'd like to say? |
CWO_Shazam | Oh, yea |
CWO_Shazam | I thought I'd let everyone know, idea that came from reading one of Cos post, we might be incorporating imagery into our stories here in Nazgul Squadron |
CWO_Shazam | I personally think that'd be really cool if done well, so watch out for that |
| * SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw winces |
CWO_Shazam | ? |
CWO_Shazam | Oh well, anyways |
CWO_Shazam | theres going to be a Nazgul meeting at 7:00 EST tonight, so be there, and we'll discuss some of those topics I've brought up on the Nazgul thread |
CWO_Shazam | that channel is, of course, #Nazgul |
CWO_Shazam | thanks a bunch |
| * CWO_Shazam ends with solo |
GM_Kadann | Thanks again Shazam |
CWO_Shazam | yup |
GM_Kadann | That's all I had for today |
GM_Kadann | thanks to everyone who came |
GM_Kadann | dismissed |
