[Firefox Breed]

[2009/10/31 18:00] Aryte Vesperia: Let's get started.

[2009/10/31 18:01] Aryte Vesperia: Thank you all for coming this eveni-- banana strawberry wars of 2042? lol

[2009/10/31 18:01] Aryte Vesperia: ANY

[2009/10/31 18:01] Aryte Vesperia: WAYS

[2009/10/31 18:01] Aryte Vesperia: I will keep this as brief as possible, since it's Halloween and I am sure everyone is eager to go be lazy and dress . . well most of you are dressed normally.

[2009/10/31 18:02] Aryte Vesperia: I am surprised we actually have a decent turnout tonight. T hank you all for joining us. :D

[2009/10/31 18:02] Aryte Vesperia: Statistics this week.

[2009/10/31 18:02] Aryte Vesperia: Members. 264. Well 5. But Sera accidentally her whole Ordo group.

[2009/10/31 18:02] Aryte Vesperia: 10 cadets.

[2009/10/31 18:02] Aryte Vesperia: 18 new applications. 12 denied. 2 accpeted. 4 in review.

[2009/10/31 18:03] Anlysia Gregoire: "Who quit?" "Sera." "What...? D:"

[2009/10/31 18:03] Aryte Vesperia: 30 defenses . . well, more like 40 (unposted, cough).

[2009/10/31 18:03] Aryte Vesperia: Shh.

[2009/10/31 18:03] Aryte Vesperia: Chat lag?

[2009/10/31 18:03] Aryte Vesperia: hm

[2009/10/31 18:03] Aryte Vesperia: Let me try that again.

[2009/10/31 18:04] Aryte Vesperia: 11 deployments this week. Hell yeah.

[2009/10/31 18:04] Aryte Vesperia: 1 allied assistance deployment.

[2009/10/31 18:04] Aryte Vesperia: To begin. Good god, this week has been fantastic. Activity has been on a steady rise and the school year slump seems to be wearing away more and more.

[2009/10/31 18:05] Aryte Vesperia: Combat has been off the charts--we've had a great deployment routine, with tons of quality battles.

[2009/10/31 18:05] Aryte Vesperia: There was hardly a group this week that wasn't affected by us in combat.

[2009/10/31 18:06] Aryte Vesperia: What a good time! I had a lot of fun, and I know you all did. Or at least you acted like it.

[2009/10/31 18:07] Aryte Vesperia: We hit Silverhawks. Dominated their defense and defended their base from C haos. Silverhawks then beefed up their structural security . . only for us to come back the next day and do it again.

[2009/10/31 18:07] Aryte Vesperia: We hit Thorium, and made it all the way into their spawn points.

[2009/10/31 18:08] Aryte Vesperia: We hit CATI at a 2:1 in manpower, took both flags, and held them.

[2009/10/31 18:08] Aryte Vesperia: 39th attacked late night when we had a skeleton crew defense . . never made it into Titan. We counter attacked and locked them into their spawn for over an hour.

[2009/10/31 18:09] Aryte Vesperia: Chaos assaulted Badnarik, reached the Mercz's inner courtyard, and then Ordo reinforcements sent Chaos packing back to the spawn until they withdrew.

[2009/10/31 18:09] Aryte Vesperia: We hit SF in Lincoln Heights and watched Zanndor climb a rope for nine hours, whilst singing the final countdown, only to summarily die as he reached the top. Not exactly an accomplishment. But I like bringing it up to remind Zanndor how funny it was to watch.

[2009/10/31 18:10] Aryte Vesperia: LOL.

[2009/10/31 18:10] Aryte Vesperia: All in all: it was badass. So thank you all.

[2009/10/31 18:10] Aryte Vesperia: On the topic of Chaos--and diplomacy abroad in general--I approached Chaos as promised last week, about the prospects of unbanning them.

[2009/10/31 18:11] Aryte Vesperia: Dark Svenska, their leader, has yet to reply to me on both occassions I've IM'd him.

[2009/10/31 18:11] Aryte Vesperia: Otherwise, nothing has really changed externally. All is quite well in the world of combat.

[2009/10/31 18:11] Aryte Vesperia: Unit reports at this time?

[2009/10/31 18:11] Lestat Umarov raises hand

[2009/10/31 18:11] Anlysia Gregoire raises hand.

[2009/10/31 18:11] Aryte Vesperia: Mr. Umarov.

[2009/10/31 18:11] Lestat Umarov: Another good week for Terra. The Terra restructure is pending approval before being put into effect. Aside from that we have a few new members and have been in frequent combat. Now, onto unit reports.

[2009/10/31 18:12] Lestat Umarov: From Keller for Invictus: "Another solid week for Invictus, with the squad taking part in raids and rapid deployments regularily. The squad's going to be shifted around a bit over the next week in lieu of the upcoming Terra revamp, but aside from that business continues as usual, with continued work on new training to take advantage of the dropship in a variety of scenarios, as well as cross-squad training with Fulminata and Antesignani."

[2009/10/31 18:12] Lestat Umarov: From Zerowinged for Antesignani: "The squad is welcoming a new FNG, Dempster Duncker, and is going to be dealing with inactivitiy issues in the near future. Negev is damn near finished, waiting for some touchups and eyecandy, Veritas is awaiting approval, and the MGL 2.0d is awaiting a install inside of the armory."

[2009/10/31 18:12] Lestat Umarov: From Zrazor for Fulminata: "In light of recent successes involving cross-squad operations and activities, Fulminata will be devoting efforts to pursuing and developing other such training events and assaults with the other two Alpha units, as well as involving Tactica resources in the development of cross-squad tactics to further the effectiveness of the Alpha units as a whole. In regards to the flamethrower (which I have christened the ZR-23 Incendius), development is continuing smoothly, although we are considering waiting for Nexii to finish developing raycasting technology in before we move forward with the scripting process."

[2009/10/31 18:12] Lestat Umarov: From myself for the Adiutor Staff: "I have nothing new to report this week for the staff. We're currently reworking in conjuction with the Terra restructure. Thank you."

[2009/10/31 18:12] Lestat Umarov: That concludes my report for Terra. Any additional reports can be given at the discretion of the Imperator.

[2009/10/31 18:12] Aryte Vesperia: Thank you. Anlysia?

[2009/10/31 18:13] Anlysia Gregoire: Ugh go past me, Notepad ate my formatting unless you want everything I write to be twice as long due to misplaced linebreaks.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Aryte Vesperia: All righty.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Aryte Vesperia: Next?

[2009/10/31 18:14] Sosarin Demar raises his hand.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Aryte Vesperia: Mr. Demar.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Sosarin Demar: Astra combat participation this week was good, both on raids and private exercises. We've yet to receive fresh blood, so our free time has been focused on evaluating ourselves with focus on the Praeda. Speaking of sitbased aircraft, Ethan's development on the Predator continues. The guns are being worked on. Next week I hope to see more practice in our free time as well as at least one air raid. To top it off, some orientation with the dropship for some folk would be most desirable with the help of Invictus if we can schedule something. Also, we have an Inter-AD event scheduled with Kratus on Thursday, which shouldn't interfere with the festivities of Black November. That concludes this week's report for Astra.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Aryte Vesperia: Thank you.

[2009/10/31 18:14] Sosarin Demar: (And Reminder, tournaments every Friday at 5PM SLT).

[2009/10/31 18:14] Sosarin Demar: (That is all)

[2009/10/31 18:14] Aryte Vesperia: Do any other units wish to report before Anlysia?

[2009/10/31 18:15] Anlysia Gregoire: I'm ready whene'er now.

[2009/10/31 18:15] Aryte Vesperia: All right, go ahead.

[2009/10/31 18:15] Anlysia Gregoire: Okaaaay...it's been a terrifically busy week for Munitorium with a LOT of projects moving ahead, so I actually wrote this out in advance for once. You should all be proud of me, it's like I'm doing real work or something. And then Notepad buggered up the formatting. GG.

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: First of the project updates: The Fulminata flamethrower has (finally) received a name AND a model. The newly-christened ZR-23 "Incendius" is waiting on some help from Ethan for Sera, and then the final bits of scripting should be ready and we can push it out into testing. If you see Zrazor running around burning people, you know why.

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: The Negev is waiting on a couple new textures and animations, and then it should be ready to be pushed into active service. I haven't managed to break it in a while, and I can definitely say that everyone who has it in their hands is totally in love with it. In conjunction with this, Sera is starting work on a new LMG to match the energy line, the "Eversor".

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: Next, the tanks. Tsume has redesigned/rebuilt the physical shells for the Veritas and Intimidator to make them quite a bit lighter, and thus much less likely to physlock under laggy conditions. I'm working with Tsume to tweak the SRBMs in the Veritas for a bit more "fairness", and the Intimidator has entered the later-testing stages with me. So far it looks very promising.

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: Vincent and Tsume's Lasrifle and Laspistol are entering the endgame of their testing as well. Today they got new sounds courtesy of...Vinnie I believe (apologies if I'm wrong) and the last couple bugs I was aware of have been ironed out. Promising for these to be released very soon.

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: Last but not least, the two Praetorian weapons -- the Halberd and "Malleus Tontritus" (Hammer <.<;) are in testing with the Praetorians themselves. I'm letting these ones run through their capable hands since I don't feel right mucking about with their fancy special Praetorian gear.

[2009/10/31 18:16] Anlysia Gregoire: And that's it now that you've all tuned me out. \o/

[2009/10/31 18:16] Aryte Vesperia: HELLGUN?

[2009/10/31 18:17] Vincent Lucerne: HELLGUN

[2009/10/31 18:17] Agares Tretiak readies a tranquilizer.

[2009/10/31 18:17] Anlysia Gregoire: Hellguns are different than Lasrifles.

[2009/10/31 18:17] Vincent Lucerne: THEY ARE

[2009/10/31 18:17] Agares Tretiak: They are.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Vincent Lucerne: That is all.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Vinnie Lei: Ehm... Resonate cascade is a rumour. it never happened.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Vincent Lucerne nods.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Aryte Vesperia: ALL RIGHT.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Aryte Vesperia: Moving right alooong.

[2009/10/31 18:18] Aryte Vesperia: Just a couple topics to bring up--but important ones!

[2009/10/31 18:19] Aryte Vesperia: Foooremost. TERRA REVAMP. We've been hammering it out for a couple weeks now . . . aaannnd she's about done. All is left now is the reassingment of personnel, which Firefox, myself, and Lestat will finish here shortly. After which, Lestat just needs to take out his big "I APPROVE" stamp and she's good to go.

[2009/10/31 18:20] FireFox Breed: ¯\(º o)/¯

[2009/10/31 18:28] Aryte Vesperia: Kudos. Major kudos. I know I've been mumbling under my breath for the last couple of weeks. But just look around. A week ago we were being griefed constantly, every day, basically on the hour. We took care of that. A day after, we had 70 people on map and a week full of just badass combat.

[2009/10/31 18:29] Katsuhito Tal: Just means we need more griefers

[2009/10/31 18:29] Vincent Lucerne: >_>

[Anlysia Gregoire]

A lot of things are cakes. It's a pretty vague category.

[Kynnaria Merlin]

The cake is a lie. (You know it had to be said.)
