In keeping with your oft-stated desire to have others judge your tier advancement, as factory admin I'll be handling this.
- Your three submissions are noted.
- Your first contract thread is only eight posts. Your posts are, respectively, three lines long, three lines long, two lines long, and four lines long. This is the definition of an insufficient dev thread. This is partially mitigated by your thread partner having gone on LOA rather than finish the thread; next time, however, please do another thread to submit.
- Your second contract thread is a one-time consultancy rather than a long-term contract. However, it could be construed as a contractual business dealing, and is fourteen posts. Your posts were of acceptable length.
- Your first miscellaneous thread involves several detailed posts by Dredge, which explain that various parts of Aurum were being conquered for purposes of creating Subach factories. This thread is, on balance, acceptable.
- Your second miscellaneous thread involves numerous tiny posts from you and Ayra regarding factory setup. Your third miscellaneous thread involves several small posts from you and Ayra regarding factory setup. I see no evidence of significant effort, but I do believe that were these threads submitted as miscellaneous threads for another corporation, they could be accepted if the rest of the submission was strong. I'm willing to accept the two of them as one thread.
- Your fourth miscellaneous thread is acceptable.
I'm on the fence regarding this submission. However, since you have an established future growth relationship with the New Order, and since your marketplace thread has had some successful activity, and since we're only talking about Tier 3, I'm approving your tier increase. I'd caution you, however, to avoid making mass-produced full-sized ships of the line until you hit Tier 4, and to review the description of a Tier 3 company's capabilities.
In keeping with territorial acquisitions of unfriendly factions, I'm removing Serpena and the Silken Asteroids. However, I'm approving your territorial increases and adding Oberon, Cadomai Prime, Dubrillion, and Aurum.
I'd strongly suggest a full rewrite of your company submission, which I'll handle personally, as much of the text and rationale are obsolete now.
