YOU are Invited to
The Fleet-Wide Squad of the Month Meet!


By order of the Council of Admirals, after completion of the competition portion of the Meet, there will be a drawing at this month's SotM for:


PRIZE GIVE-AWAY
:!: 10 Million Energy Credits :!:


The scheduling of the February Meet is now OPEN.


Hello All!
Time to schedule the next SotM!

    The leading option is Saturday the [20th].

    The other choices are: Saturday the [27th], Saturday the 13th, Sunday the 28th, Sunday the 21st, or Sunday the 14th.


Scheduling Rules:
Post your scheduling choice in a reply below. Note that dates you say you cannot attend are more important than the dates that you say you prefer in deciding the date of the meet. We are trying to get the highest turn out of all squad members for the competition and prize give-away in the first half-hour. Thus, if 5 people prefer a date but 1 more can attend only on another date, then the date on which 6 can attend will win even though 5 of the 6 preferred a different date. It is assumed that you can attend all the date options, unless you clearly state otherwise in a post below or have communicated that fact to me directly.

Extra weight is given to the votes of squad captains, squad XOs, and anyone who is actually committing to showing up at a time (as opposed to "maybe" showing). The date and time chosen depends ultimately on who wants to participate and who will actually show up.

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.[center]

Well, Sundays are out for the moment, based on Rodnny's post (and my own vague recollection of other's past posts). But no one has voiced a conflict to Saturday the 20th, so that now becomes the leading candidate. :vulcan:

The scheduling of this month's meet is now CLOSED.

By special arrangement of Tactical Command's RA (Sysil), this month's SotM will include:

1 v 1 Tournament!

or
1v1 Mach V


As always, after completion of the competition portion of the Meet, there will be a drawing at this month's SotM for:

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

Rules for 1 v 1 Tournament: See Sysil's post in Fleet Talk! The tournament will begin in the 2nd Hour of the Meet for those interested in participating. For those not up for (or on pause in) the tournament, we will have our regular SotM activities going on at the same time.

Congratulations to Engineering's Charlie Squad ("The Aesir") for winning the Squad of the Month meet for February 2021! Charlie won by bot-race, after mustering three members during the initial Grace Period and tying on attendance with Tactical's Gamma. Honorable squad showings of two members each were made by Engineering's Alpha & Beta, Science's Epsilon, and Section 31's Alpha

A prize of 10 million EC from our Fleet Bank was awarded based on dice roll among attenders, with the prize going to:
