As per above, Ocie has a conflict and cannot make it on the 17th. Many prefer the 17th, but so far, no one has said they cannot attend on the 31st for at least the first half-hour.

I cannot attend on the 31st.

Considering that attendance will probably be much lower on the 31st and only one person cannot make it on the 17th, I suggest we do it on the 17th.

The 31st will be a problem for me, but I can make it on the 17th.

Ah well then, now we have actual conflicts voiced with the 31st. Therefore, the leading option is changed to Saturday the 17th. Will close scheduling tomorrow.

Currently, none of the current options work for me. I'll be driving to Mississippi on the 17th and working the 31st. I guess I'll be missing this one.

As always I work every weekend and will try to get on near the end if I am able. I hope everyone has a blast if I do miss it!

Your Squad Needs YOU!
Saturday, December 17 at 19:00 UTC
(i.e., 7PM GMT, 2PM EST, 1PM CST, 11AM PST)
NOTE: Time is an hour earlier than usual!

Squad of the Month meet is THIS COMING SATURDAY!

Attendance is a big part of scoring the winner. Don't let your squad go down without a fight!

By special arrangement of Vice Admiral Sysil, this month's SotM will include:

12th Fleet Carrier Tournament

This PvP event will take the place of the usual PvP match for this month, and as always participation is optional.
See Priority One Communication for details on how to participate in the tournament
(e.g., bring a 2-hanger carrier ).

By order of the Council of Admirals, after completion of the attendance competition portion of the Meet, there will be a drawing for:

PRIZE GIVE-AWAY
20 Million Energy Credits

The Meet will convene on Discord in a channel relabeled "Squad of the Month" at the time set forth above.

What is Squad of the Month?
The Squad of the Month ("SotM") meet is a monthly fleet event which starts with an inter-squad competition to determine the Fleet's Squad of the Month. The competition is followed by group activities which may include: build advice, challenge match PvP, teaming up to cruise the TFO queues, and just hanging out together on Discord. We are a casual fleet, and participation in any portion of SotM is optional.

Rules for Competition: The winner of the competition is determined by attendance during the first 15 minutes of the meet (the "grace period"). The squad with the most members logging into the Discord channel during the grace period wins. However, if any squad shows up with its full membership during the grace period but still does not have enough numbers to win the competition, then the result will be a tie between all squads with their full membership attending and the squad with the largest number of members attending. If there is a tie, then the winner of the competition will be determined either by dice roll (".roll" using the Security Bot on Discord), or by any other method agreed upon between the tying parties (e.g., PvP match, trivia question, etc.). Any method other than dice roll for resolving a tie, must be approved by the convener of the meet (normally me) as being swift enough to be resolved simply without taking up the whole meet or leaving the winner undetermined beyond the end of the meet. The winning squad gains the Squad of the Month trophy to display in its squad forum until the next meet, and each member of the squad whose attendance contributed to the victory is awarded an SotM ribbon.
