The 894th meeting of TGFT was chaired by Commander tsreknor, who opened the session with a warm welcome to the team. The primary focus of the meeting involved council transitions, member milestones, and technical updates from the developers.

### Council Elections and Transitions
Tsreknor led the wrap-up of the January Council elections, announcing that incumbents Ecka Estenk and Mani Sayed were re-elected. Ecka Estenk, while "pouring a dram," offered a brief "thanks all" to the guild. Since incumbent xXxDSMer did not stand for re-election, tsreknor officially decreed that Mophius would replace him on the Council.

The voting process was a main point of discussion:
*   Tsreknor instructed the council to first vote "no" on xXxDSMer to clear the seat before Mophius could be voted in.
*   Galactica Actual joined the meeting mid-way and was immediately called upon by tsreknor to cast his vote. GA noted that a voting box popped up as soon as he logged in, confirming he had voted to remove xXxDSMer.
*   Other members like Mani Sayed and Mophius actively participated in the process, with Mani confirming his vote was "Done" and Mophius expressing his thanks for the appointment.

### Member Status: The Zazumel Situation
Tsreknor provided an update on a new member, Zazumel, a Serco pilot with a "yearning to join his countrymen in the Itani war". To accommodate this, tsreknor contacted ONE leadership, who agreed to invite Zazumel.
*   Mophius commented that this move "seems logical," and Mani Sayed agreed it "seems reasonable".

### Achievements and Milestones
The meeting celebrated several significant individual accomplishments:
*   Quasarstorm was congratulated by tsreknor for becoming a Full Member and amassing 10 million credits. Members like Lunar Shadow and Stavinair Caeruleum joined in the congratulations.
*   Ivmden reached Mining status 13, which tsreknor described as "glorious," drawing "well done" cheers from Ecka and Lunar Shadow.
*   Galactica Actual reached the "insane status" of Trade 19. While GA was proud of his progress—noting he had already made over 163,000 more experience points that same day—tsreknor playfully reminded him that Ecka is currently at Trade 24. GA humbly responded, "I only knew I would never catch him... Ecka is the man".

### Technical Updates and Adjournment
Ecka Estenk brought up a thread from the VO site regarding developer activity, warning members to "expect vo oddness for a while" as they are "changing stuff under the bonnet".
*   Mophius noted experiencing lag earlier, while Stavinair Caeruleum inquired about specific features being changed.
*   Tsreknor clarified that a feature had been withdrawn due to complications and directed members to the Discord Announcements board for more details.

Tsreknor adjourned the meeting, thanking everyone for making TGFT a fun guild.
