Report # 56
April 30, 2017
-==Intro/CMDR Rant==-
April has come to an end as of this email (based on the database being on GMT) and we are down to one month until RtF. I'll encourage folks to not go crazy with your activity so that we can try to be super active next month! I know a lot of us in Beta are busy sleeping and/or with RL but any activity you can pull out of your pants next month will absolutely be appreciated!
Speaking of activity, I've decided to end the Target Identification competition. I had fun running it but alas no one participated in it beyond Kyle for the first few weeks and LT Miller one week. If you guys decide you want to give this a shot, speak up! If people ask for it I'll be more than happy to run it but I don't particularly want to keep running it if no one's going to participate.
Speaking of activity, I went ahead and bought Elite: Dangerous in anticipation of testing it out for the admiralty. It's fairly challenging so far but I think I'm enjoying it.
Now, on to the Tale of the Tape.
