Competition Guidance Competitions provide and fun and exciting way for members to engage in club activities. Competitions may take place across a nearly unlimited variety of activities, including gaming, trivia, puzzles, or creative works (graphics/fiction). Competitions can be recommended/submitted via the the Management Panel on your Emperor's Hammer profile. You will need to provide certain mandatory information about your proposed competition, such as start and end dates, medals/awards that can be won, and a full description of the competition and its rules. When completing the competition submission form, you should complete each field to be display-ready for members when your competition is approved. Correct spelling and grammar helps provide clarity to your competition. The competition form support Markdown-based formatting, enabling you to organize the information well and provide emphasis where needed. If you are new to submitting competitions, it can be very helpful to have another experienced member, such as a Squadron Commander, proofread your proposed competition prior to submission. They can also provide feedback on the rules and scoring for your competition. Reviewing existing approved competitions within the Competition Center can also help a new competition runner understand what makes a good competition listing. Duties of a Competition Runner Competition runners (i.e., the person proposing a competition) are responsible for the competition from inception through completion. This includes: Recommending the competition through the web site interface. Making corrections to the competition listing, if necessary. Collecting results, scores, or other applicable performance metrics for the competition. Announcing mid-competition standings, if applicable (typically for longer duration competitions). Announcing the final competition results. Initiating medal recommendations for the winning members. While running a good competition can take some time and energy, it is a great way to create a fun atmosphere within the organization and provides additional opportunities for the competition runner to be recognized for their contributions. Common Errors The competition details omit information that a member will need to fully participate in the event. For example, failing to explain how the competition will be scored, how or where to submit their results, etc. The proposed awards for the competition are not consistent with the respective subgroup's criteria for those awards. Excessive spelling, grammar, or formatting errors that impact the clarity of the competition listing. Competitions in the TIE Corps As a rule of thumb, the TIE Corps prefers not to duplicate competitions that are already in existence at a wider level (other than trivia). For example, a squadron or battlegroup version of Ace of the TIE Corps would not be approved as it is essentially double dipping with regards to medals. We do though allow similar competitions and if you can use a different metric (e.g., Legion of Combat/Legions of Skirmish with a certain number of your own squadron present instead of a flat count of LoCs/LoSs) then it would likely be approved. If in doubt please contact the Warfare Officer for guidance. When it comes to medals, please remember: Platinum Iron Stars may only be awarded for first place in Corps-wide competitions that either last at least four months or for more complex events like Raise the Flag. Gold Iron Stars are awarded for first place in battlegroup, ship, and wing competitions. They’re also awarded for Corps-level competitions that last less than a few months and to the runner-up for an IS-PW. Competitions at the Corps, battlegroup, ship, and wing levels that run for less than a month or have rounds that last less than a month should not award IS-GWs to keep them from becoming too common. Silver Iron Stars are awarded for first place in squadron-level competitions that last at least one month. They’re also awarded to the runner-up for an IS-GW. Bronze Iron Stars are awarded for first place in squadron-level competitions lasting less than one month or to the runner-up for an IS-SW. Copper Iron Stars would never need to be a first place award, with other Iron Stars fulfilling that purpose. Any competition awarding the IS-BW or IS-BR may award an IS-CW or IS-CR to the runner-up. Operational Readiness Award: These should not be awarded as a simple “participate in the competition, get a medal”. The idea for the ORA is that pilots can make achievements in a competition without placing, for example completing a certain number of tasks. If in doubt please reach out to the WO for advice. Examples Poor quality submission Competition description contains irrelevant information ("I think it would be a great idea if..."). Competition description doesn't contain enough information to participate. For example, does the pilot have to submit their score somewhere? As a general rule, 'blanket' or 'placeholder' competitions where the actual activity to be performed (in this case, which battle will be flown) is unknown are not preferred except in special circumstances. Grammar impacts clarity of the description. Awards are listed in the description section (which is unnecessarily duplicative) and also does not match those listed in the awards section. If the IS-GW is being proposed, it is not supported by the TIE Corps policies for awarding the IS-GW in a squadron-level competition. Good submission The competition is creative and not a rehash of other common competitions. The competition description is robust and provides specific details to the member on how to participate and submit their results. The competition description uses paragraphs for clarity. The awards are in accordance with TIE Corps policies for the Iron Star and Operational Readiness Award.

Webpage Design and Creation Events, competitions, units and other situations all require webpages for effective communication within the Fleet. Webpages creation is a good way to get noticed and promote your own fighting unit. Graphics and other Artistic Endeavors Creating original EH-oriented graphics is a great way to contribute to the Fleet. It does not matter if you think you are the worst artist in the world, there is never enough graphic art in the EH. Newsletters The Emperor's Hammer publishes the Dark Sentinel. This newsletter covers the entire EH and accepts contributions from all corners of the club. Give your work a broader audience. Be creative! Events Operations and Competitions All of the above activities can be done as an individual effort at any time. Don't wait for some "official" event to come along to be active! When official events do come along, it is always a big event. Official events fall into two categories: Operations and Competitions. Operations are the Big Events. They are always Group-wide and frequently have many different activities to encourage everyone to participate. Because they are so complex, they involve many man-hours of preparation and do not occur more than once every few months. Competitions are more local events. They are usually at the unit level or below, pitting squadron against squadron or platoon against platoon. Inter-squad competitions can settle who is the best flight in a squadron or squad in a platoon. Competitions may be run by anyone and only require approval by a superior and the Operation Officer for that Group.
