MisterFubar[TK] Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 I think I'll be good to go straight for EIB as soon as I'm approved by my GML. I'll just need to take some better pictures. Should be any day now I'm hoping. Quote

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 We're at 277 as of the writing of this post. At this rate 300 seems totally doable by New Years. If you know an armor maker go over to their house and help them gets kits out the door! -Eric Quote
HockeyTrooper[TK] Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 I know of 3 guys building armor or waiting for armor in my area that are all going EIB or Centurion. One is finished and is just waiting for his application to 501st to be approved (MisterFubar), another is beginning the major trimming on his armor (Quixotic) and the third is waiting on his armor to show up (Columbiamo). I've worked with MisterFubar and Quixotic a little with their ATA kits and am really looking forward to Columbiamo's RT build since I haven't seen that armor type in person before (as far as I know).

Dday[501st] Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 Final touches n my TM kit tomorrow, first troop on Saturday, photos and submission for EIB and cent to follow shortly. Quote

I will get mine at the beginning of December. *sigh* I have never done anything like this before...I really would like to make it happen before the year is out.

Clamps[TK] Posted November 2, 2012 Report Posted November 2, 2012 I tried my best to add to the tally with my ESB EiB (2nd) but alas it seems that does not add to the counter Quote
nai-retep[TK] Posted November 2, 2012 Report Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) As it seems more and more ladies have been applying for EIB lately, I'd like to propose a challenge. Hopefully one to motivate, not cause any strife for anyone! What percentage of those 2300 TKs are female? What if we aim for the same percentage of EIB female? Who can get to their respective percentage first - the men or the women? Interesting idea! To help out both Kathy and I have just been EIB approved so that is one for both sides!

jnnfr72[TK] Posted November 2, 2012 Report Posted November 2, 2012 A+ for your effort! Lord Vader is putting the finishing touches on cookies he baked just for you. I tried my best to add to the tally with my ESB EiB (2nd) but alas it seems that does not add to the counter Quote
Locitus[Admin] Posted November 2, 2012 Report Posted November 2, 2012 I tried my best to add to the tally with my ESB EiB (2nd) but alas it seems that does not add to the counter That is correct. We're only counting individuals, not awards. But it looked good none-the-less. Quote
Clamps[TK] Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Alright folks, time to beat the bushes and rustle up 19 more EiB applicants before the end of the year! They definitely seem to come in waves and we need a couple more waves and we're there! Quote
TK-42779[501st] Posted December 9, 2012 Report Posted December 9, 2012 (edited) *sigh* Sadly Rob at RT let me know that due to unforseen circumstances my kit won't reach me until the end of the month. No 300 by 2013 for me. Edited December 9, 2012 by columbiamo Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 9, 2012 Author Report Posted December 9, 2012 Wow - only 13 more slots to go. A baker's dozen lucky troopers to be in the first EI cohort! Quote
Trooper1972 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Posted December 9, 2012 Ahhhh 200 seems so long ago now..... Quote
jnnfr72[TK] Posted December 9, 2012 Report Posted December 9, 2012 *sigh* Sadly Rob at RT let me know that due to unforseen circumstances my kit won't reach me until the end of the month. No 300 by 2013 for me. You could be the FIRST in 2013, though. Just stay up for 72 hours straight working on it and you'll be done. Quote

Jreeveo Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 What do you need pics of for EIB? Im still waiting on my clearance and Legion ID but I should be able to get everything else ready by the end of the year Quote

jnnfr72[TK] Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 My hubby will be applying soon, if he knows what's good for him. Quote
Idaho Jones[TK] Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Will finish up my EIB after the holidays. Made a few of the changes before I applied for TK approval. Just have to cut the kidney plate and shim the side gap on my FX Quote
Rezablad3[TK] Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 I really do hope we reach 300 before 2013..... Quote
Mongoose[TK] Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 It's not an unreasonable number. I remember when I got mine and went and looked up how many in my local garrison were EIB, was kinda surprised there wasn't more. When I first started this I was only aiming for 501st general approval. I was using build threads that were from troopers going for EIB and Centurian, so I'm not too far from Centurian, other than the no Hasbro allowed feature. have to sell the wife on that one. Eventually.. Quote
