To Do List - Fleet Admiral Taurian

Updated 12/18/2011

Bullet Complete Recruitment of 54 Pilots
I get it. Right now we don't have a lot of pilots. We are currently averaging 1 new pilot a day out of 20 new applications. That's pretty good by anyone's standards.

Bullet Corporate Lottery Program
Try your luck with the new Corporate Lottery System! Millions of ISK up for grabs plus extra real life prizes. Special software will be designed to make this a fun weekly event.

Bullet New Eden Bounties
Our Corporate Bounties and KOS System has been a major success. Almost 300 Million ISK has been awarded to -TAC- Members Directly. Lets see if non -TAC- pilots can do better.

Bullet Corporate War History
A seperate forum area will be created that show cases the recent wars The Alpha Company has been involved in and the thoughts from Leadership.

Bullet Alliance/Corporation Support on KOS
We'll be integrating the ability to search current intel on Alliances and Corporations added to The Alpha Company Kill on Sight Database

Bullet Ship Loan Program
A program/process will be created that will allow members of The Alpha Company to easily loan ships to members with the rank of Private First Class and above.

Bullet Host Fleet Conference on Upcoming Operation
This Fleet Conference will be a online event where we go into detail regarding the specifics of Operation: Aura. Members will have a chance share and ask questions.

Bullet Require Ship Description (Mission Center)
The Mission Center will require the type of ship the pilot will use for said mission. This will allow members to easily collaborate on fittings.

Bullet Deploy Moon Mining Base
We are going to deploy a moon mining base. This will be a corporate event. This event will begin in April.

Bullet Complete Phase 1 of Operation: Aura
At least 4 pilots must be a rank of Ensign or above. A survey mission to our new forward base must be completed.

Bullet Bring Havoc Aboard with EVE / TAC OPS
Rear Admiral Havoc is by far one of the most experienced -TAC- Member to date. He would be a great asset for the upcoming fleet operation.

Bullet Bring Preacher Aboard with EVE / TAC OPS
General Preacher is by far one of the most experienced -TAC- Member to date. He would be a great asset for the upcoming fleet operation.

Bullet EVE HQ Pos
Private Steel has mentioned a unique tool to assist with the deployment of our POS called EVE HQ. I'll need to devote some time to looking into it.

12/14/2011- What happened to Operation: Aura?

I've been getting this question a lot, especially from new members. Operation Aura was an ambitious goal designed to put us on a path to 0.0 space. Like most corporations with long term goals, we were hit with something that should have been expected, Wars. For a time The Alpha Company became a target of numerous War Declarations, most were Grief Wars. Players simply trying to pad their stats and target corporations that seemed like easy targets.

For awhile we played 'Turtle'; decided to deny attacks. It worked for 1 or 2 wars, but not all. Mostly because some members simply wanted to fight and wanted to fight with backup. Funny how that changed when we were on the offensive. Dealing with these wars completely shifted our focus from 'Operation Aura' to 'Dealing with the current War Griefer'. We learned a lot, I learned a lot. Members were lost, Drama was stirred. But as I think back, the cause of it was that we no longer had a common goal we all shared. It was supposed to be Aura, now it was 'Lets Defend The Alpha Company from the Latest War Dec'. Not everyone wanted to play that game. Who can blame them?

Wars either kill corporations or deter them from their long term goals.
Wars cause a massive drop in member activity and generally make the game not so fun to play. They also come at the worst moments. What do we do about it?

Answer: Everyone Should Stay Focused and be in Agreement
Players change their minds about War on a daily basis. We needed a way to gauge everyone's thoughts in a discreet yet important way. So we've created a Live War Voting System. It's pretty straight forward. If you want to play the game of "War", say so here. If not, vote for Peace. Then it's the job of leadership to enact everyone's response. It automatically calculates based on the current active member roster.

And know that our current operation is: The Erebus Project

Fly Safe Everyone!

-Taurian

I currently fly a tricked out Harbinger. It's fast, versatile, can be equipped with Short Range Weapons up to 20km and Long Range Weapons up to 56km. I strongly feel that size does not matter in EVE. This is how I prove it.
