What is Squad of the Month?
The Squad of the Month ("SotM") meet is a monthly fleet event that takes place on our 12th Discord server every month on a Saturday.
The meet commences with an inter-squad competition to determine the Fleet's Squad of the Month. The competition is followed immediately by a drawing for EC from the Fleet Bank. This month the drawing will be followed by Stromgold's holiday edition "Let's Make a Deal" game. Subsequent activities may include: group battle zone runs, teaming up to cruise TFO queues and Story-Line Missions, build advice, and just hanging out together on Discord.
The meet lasts about seven hours with an hour meal break midway. Members and their friends are welcome to join in at any time during the course of the event; you do not have to be there for the beginning or stay to the end. We are a casual fleet, and participation in any portion of the event is optional.
Rules for Competition:
The winner of the Squad of the Month is decided by competition between all squads with members present during the first 15 minutes of the meet ("the grace period"). By default the competition will consist of a bot race by a representative member from each of the qualifying squads. The representative squad member for the race will be chosen by the convener of the meet based on ranking squad command officer (or that officer’s designee), seniority, or election of the squad members in that order of preference. Any method other than bot race for determining the winner, must be agreed upon by all competing squad members present and 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.
PS There was no open scheduling for the date of the SotM this month, because Saturday the 27th is the only date I could make due to conflicts with performances of a musical I am in.
Merry Christmas all!!!
