Daniel Taylor promoted to Lieutenant Colonel
Appointment #68
This announcement may seem inapproriate at this moment in time. However, it didn't daunt me as much as I thought it would because this promotion is well-deserving of its recepient.
Daniel Taylor's work within SGU (and other AJJE sims) as well as trying to restore a flagging sim (twice) is no mean feat. And thus merited - with a unanimous decision on our part - a promotion.
So without further ado, we hereby promote Daniel Taylor to Lieutenant Colonel with all the rights and priveliges therewith.
Congratulations, Daniel.

Daniel had left AJJE Games about the same time; this is to be considered a final promotion.

Chris Wilkinson placed in charge of SGA Beta Site
Appointment #68
When Megan Schulz informed us at Military Command of her reliquishing command of SGA Beta Site, it falls to us to find another CO worthy of such a command.
Since SGA Beta Site didn't have a BXO to take over command, three names were put forward and one name was unanimously voted as the next CO of SGA Beta Site.
So without further ado, we hereby give Chris Wilkinson command of SGA Beta Site.
Congratulations, Chris.

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Silent Hunter to the position of RPG Development Director. Silent has been an active member of AJJE for three years, and is a man of many ideas, as evidenced by his numerous sim ideas found on Ride the Edge, and I am glad to have him bring his energy, drive, and enthusiasm to make AJJE's sims the best they can be to this department.
Please join me in congratulating him!
-Euan Reid
VP Development

Note: Silent Hunter had previously been RPG Development Director before being removed by previous VP Teddie Dollins, who has now left AJJE.

Mike Palmer resigns from LOTW after furore breaks out over President's posting
LOTW Operations Leader Mike Palmer, a long standing veteran of the site and CO of Prinz Eugen (a multiple Sim of the Year winner), yesterday resigned from AJJE Games in protest over the reversal of Resolution #37 and the leadership in general.
The final straw was a widely-criticised decision by President Jeannette Giesbrecht to post a link to her decision reversing Jamie Chamberlain's ban on the sims of LOTW without asking the COs of the sim, some of whom were not on strike, including Mike himself, recovering from an eye operation. This also included the email to order Ash and Mike to reverse the ban.
Mike posted a thundering resignation in LOTW's parliament, accusing the President of tyranny and stating that the top-level leadership would be glad to see him go. He was followed by relative new player Benjamin Sedlak, his XO Mike Kennedy and Damian Lamothe.
Mike's fear that Jamie Chamberlain would be appointed as his successor proved unfounded- Deborah Leighton Plom was appointed instead. Wife of Parliament Leader Ashley, she is a popular player and seen very much as in the same camp as her husband, who she met via AJJE.
In response, Eddie Cramer said he did not harbour any ill-feelings towards Jamie. Jeannette said that she was sorry to see him go.
We will keep you updated with developments. This may not be the last resignation.

SGA-2 Closes
Appointment #67/Announcement #1
After much deliberation and thought, it is with a sad note that we members of Military Command announce the retraction of Appointment 66 (Michael Parks re-instatement to Commanding Officer level) and uphold the decision we have stated in Appointment #65. This also coincides with the closure of the SGA-2 sim.
This decision did not come about lightly. We at the Military Command had to discuss this issue at length. SGU's Guiding Principles charges us members of Military Command with the responsibility of the overall health of the clubs. At the same time, it protects Team Leaders/Commanding Officers from unwarranted removal by laying out the conditions for removal, namely the persistent violation of the sim's Absence WithOut Leave policies or an absence of thirty days.
SGU's Policy #1 expands upon the Guiding Principles with the creation of the review process and the conditions and timelines for reviews, again based upon the Absence WithOut Leave violations. In response to this, we put Michael Parks on a three-month review period, just like we did Daniel Taylor, who was the previous Commanding Officer of SGU-3. Out of those three months, two were in review, which would have added to our grounds for a demotion of command. As we believe in giving anyone a second chance to prove themselves that our decision in promoting Michael Parks wasn't misplaced, we at Military Command have decided to demote him and place him under a mentor instead.
The closure of SGA-2 did not come as immediate as it may sound. It was gradual. With its previous Team Leader/Commanding Officer Christopher Wilkinson informing us at Military Command of his relinquishing of command, we at Military Command thought to give the sim to Michael Parks to see if he can handle the reins of command. Thus, Appointment #66 was made. However, upon observing the mass exodus of SGA-2's members to another sim, we deemed it appropriate to close an otherwise unproductive sim and rescind Appointment #66.

Liam Connollly becomes a new member of Council of Elders
Appointment #61
As was stated in the last appointment Teddie Dollins has opted to leave AJJE Games due to real life. This has resulted in a vacant spot in the Council of Elders.
The remaining members of the Council looked at the three seniormost members of RTE and discussed the three candidates available for us to choose from. After several hours of discussion where each member of the council talked about each of the three candidates a decision was made.
So without further delay it is with great pride that the Council of Elders welcomes its newest member Liam Connolly.
Congratulations Liam!

Paul Pautler becomes SL of the Inn of the Wayward Traveller
Appointment #60
Unfortunately Teddie Dollins has opted to leave AJJE Games due to real life. This has resulted in an oppening for the SL of the Inn of the Wayward Traveler.

Vacancy for CO of USS Thunderhawk
I've recently received the resignation of Richard Thompson, CO of the USS Thunderhawk.
In the interests of avoiding another closure I am opening this position up to public applications or recommendations.
If you are interested in a command send me an e-mail(kdedul@gmail.com) or if you happen to know of someone who would be fantastic in the role, you may also e-mail me their names.
I'm giving everyone until the 4th of July to respond, that's two weeks, I think that's quite appropriate.

Daniel Taylor replaces Michael Parks as SGU-3 Team Leader
Appointment #65
I believe that this is one of the hardest appointments I had to write without sounding harsh. We at Military Command had come to decision regarding the fate of SGU-3: Michael Parks has been removed from command and demoted to Second-in-Command of SGU-3.
We have not taken this decision lightly and it has taken us some time to agree on it. But Ash, Chris, Will, and I came to this conclusion as we believe that Michael required more time as a 2IC in order to gain command experience. We also found that his posting to be insufficiently committed to that of a CO level. We have agreed that after some time, if we note an improvement then we will be happy to look at placing him as a CO once more.
In light of this, SGU-3 will not only have lost a CO but also gained a new CO. Daniel Taylor has agreed to once again take over command of SGU-3 team will all the rights and privileges forthwith.
Apologies, Michael, and congratulations, Daniel.

Editorial: Katherine Dedul creates a Medical Manual
As part of the planned Academy, Katherine Dedul has drafted a manual for Medical characters and posted it in Starfleet Command (time code 2010-05-11 16:48:49).
I have to say it is an excellent document and should be posted in Member Support as soon as possible.
