Alright. First of all kudos in particular to Lucky for carrying us through the story this week, and also to Saph; great work guys. I've had a bad week, I know others have been less active or inactive. Lets use this week to make a strong push on the story as a build up to the IOC.
Also, as I feared might happen, last week's report success was followed up by only 3 of 6 reporting. Lets try to fix that for this week.

I agree with Kira here. If you don't have taht much time, it still wouldn't take you long to write a report, doesn't have to be super long and complicated...Just for the hell of it, here's a mock example of a quickly written report: - OOC:
- posted 3 times on the squad story, did some Wiki work and have been on IRC regularly
That sentence took me less than a minute to write up. Now is something like that so hard for a quick report if you're short on time? Sure it looks like a poor report, but it's got all the essentials on it which is what you did this week. We don't need to know you guys were on vacation for 3 days this week or are working on a school assignment, etc. All that is part of RL. And yeah, maybe right now I sound like I'm cracking a whip but what I'm trying to show you guys is that reporting doesn't have to be super complicated and it's fine if it can't be an elaborate report. You all have umtil 11:59PM EST Thursdays to submit your reports, and if you know or foresee you can't report on Thursday then send one in on the Wednesday. Kira, if that last plan doesn't work with you then please say so  That deadline was set up by myself and SatrFruit when she was around. On another note...if no one's posted by tonight (I have errands to run today and I was in no condition to write last night) then I'll put a post up.

What Kira said...
I gotta say I've been with you guys a full year and I don't think I've ever seen this squad this active, not even during the ESC! I was surprised at the amount of activity we got for this story-and I have to say I am very pleased by its turnout. Great work by everyone who participated, let's keep it up!
And on that note I would like you guys to add in a little something in your next report, its nothing big so no one need worry
I would like for all of you to tell us what you enjoyed about this story. What encouraged you to post? What kept you guys posting?
I'd also like to know what kept those of you who didn't post from posting. Were you disinterested by the story? What element(s) would you have changed? What would you add/remove?
Basically what I'd like and I'm sure Kira would as well is feedback on this story, please and thank you

For those of ya who don't check the rest of the comnet much, thought I throw a brief little reminder here, the writing portion of the IOC is now underway! Currently you are fighting with the opposing team for space supremacy over Kashdovin. Don't know what team you're on? Check out: http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/topic/14111/You can then find your team's comnet which is either: Blue: http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/comnet/73/Red: http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/comnet/74/If for some reason you are not on a team (perhaps joined/rejoined after I made them) just let me know and I'll fix that as soon as possible! You can find the current story at: http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/topic/14157/For a couple tips when it comes to writing, pop over to: http://comnet.imperialnetwork.com/topic/14158/Any questions? Please do ask, I know there's some confusion out there, and along with my recent move and everything I've been a bit busier/tired than planned, but still chugging hard at the IOC. Odds are I might have missed explaining a few things, please just ask, no such thing as a stupid question here, really!

Exactly. The number of reports has declined significantly since the week when all members reported.
Also, I am beginning to put together the next squad story for when IOC and ESC are not ongoing. What I would appreciate from everyone here is their feedback regarding the kinds of things they would like to see in a story. I will try to incorporate what I can to give us something people will enjoy writing. My goal at the moment is to return IH to its roots as a scout squad, but how that is interpreted can vary widely so again, feedback will be appreciated. Depending on what I get from you, I may construct an entire campaign based on some of the ideas.

Alright it looks like we have a new and rather exciting story up for Halloween. I think the emphasis here will be on detail and character development/description. Personally, I keep reading the story and thinking it is something pulled out of Star Trek TNG (woo!) but I digress. At any rate, enjoy. Also, much better job re: reports this week, lets keep that up.

people let's try to post on the Halloween story, just be sure that if you want to have the crew act a certain way to be clear, apparently some were under the impression I was using a zombie aproach- I hate zombies, too cliche

Yes exactly. Personally I kind of envision the crew being more like the Borg but will run with how others describe their actions.
