The Wing Commander Aces storyline arc "Holding The Line" has reached a major milestone this week. Yesterday marked its second anniversary and the one hundredth PBM fiction chapter was released. Since 1999, over half a million words have been publised as part of the larger story. This is even more of an accomplishment considering that the once 600+ members strong club has been beset by some of the general depression that has lagged other parts of the WC community. Some of the past chapters can be found here. Some if it's quite good reading. If you have any questions, you can reach the HTL coordinator, Raptor, at theraj@es.co.nz.
A few people have said the past few weeks have been harder than usual, so for Week 14 I'm giving everyone a bit of a break. You should find these a bit easier than last time.
