OK Trek fans, we need some ideas for fleet events. If you want to run something yourself, or just have an idea you think would be fun, let me know.
As it stands this is the tentative schedule for the 4th Quarter:
September - ???, ???, Kick-a-Tribble Mondays, and possible TOS Tuesdays
October - Quarterly War Games, Hearts and Minds, Kick-a-Tribble Mondays, and possible TOS Tuesdays
November - Tour the Galaxy, Scavenger Hunt/Trivia, Kick-a-Tribble Mondays, and possible TOS Tuesdays
December - Winter Event, Safety Stand-down (Winter break), Kick-a-Tribble Mondays, and possible TOS Tuesdays
As you can see we need some events for September. I know we will be having a bat'leth and hand-to-hand tournament soon. Yesterday's TOS Tuesday was well attended so kudos to VADM Kor. We also have a number of new ensigns in then fleet so if there is anything you like doing don't hesitate to ask.
A few notes on what we have planned so far - last year we did a Tour the Galaxy event to replenish the Fleet Bank after a series of unfortunate events left us pretty dry. This also worked out pretty well since it also allowed us to purchase some pretty cool prizes for the Scavenger Hunt we held the next month. I think we should do both of these again, but I will need some help with coming up with new questions and different format.
Remember, we don;t have to run content for fleet event. They can be informative as well. FCPT Davis has run one on ship building. Similarly, CPT Sapel has volunteered to run a doffing boot camp in the past. I really want people to enjoy fleet event. But if you are not having fun, or wish we did something different, we need to know.
Thanks,
FCPT Cain

(Cue "Animal House" Toga Party scene)
Bare in mind that I'm just throwing some noodles on the wall and see what sticks.
Hand-to-Hand Tournament on Friday night
Bat'leth/Melee Weapon tournament on Saturday Night (Haven't seen a mixed weapon competition in the Fleet)
Shuttle Weekend (a little PvP and do Shuttle mission)
Dinosaur Hunting -- always a good time when the 7th Fleet hits the ground on the Dyson Sphere
What's Old can be New -- Senior Officers/Vet take members and re-play some of the end-session away missions (DS9 anyone??)
Romulan Rump - Go to New Romulas and do various away missions there (Eppoh anyone?)
Tour the Universe - Might need prizes for this one, but afterward, take the Fleet on a fly-by of various outpost, i.e., show our colors
Fan Dancing on Nimbus III -- lots to do and see there for an evening
Break over, back to the lawn!
Qa'pla

re: Fleet OPS State of the Union.
How about another Dabo Night? Could possibly do it in September and maybe again in December I remember the admirals saying something about wanting to make it quarterly. And I'm up for it, I just need to get the prizes in order

re: Fleet OPS State of the Union.
Also I'd like to think that we could integrate Fan Dancing into the Dabo Event, We could hold it in Risa again too.

Here's an event, Synchronized Fan Dancing - we might be able to get it done in one night.

Yeah . . . we can totally do fan dancing. Then we can paint each others nails and stay up all night gossiping and talking about boys.
Edit: If you wouldn't do it IRL at the convention, you shouldn't do it in-game

Indeed! Remember when he got all exited about the prospect of a fleet beauty pageant for the female toons? I don't think that I have ever seen him so happy.

So bath-towel . . . I mean bat'leth tourney in November, check. Return of the Dabo night (we need to come up with prizes not solely provided by Mitchy). Maybe we can combine Dabo night and trivia/ScavHunt somehow . . . hmmmm.
Does anyone else have and real ideas? I mean anything. Excelsior night, or [insert ship class] night. TV show themed nights where we get in series specific ships and do series related content. Anything. just because the noodles don't stick on the first toss, doesn't mean they won't on the next one.
