Once upon a time, it wasn't that way.
I got mine installed I think in like a month or two.

I am familiar with coding. A Week should be enough to check and Batch at least 100 PMF‘s. And it would not be that much of work. I could do that in a day. Just checking Systems and while I check I would add it to the code. Tell me Dev, why is it that hard to implement that list? Lack of People? Other priorities?

DRInc. is short for Daily Routine Incorporated. in Marki. Empire aligned, Corporation government type. Approved in April of 2017.

Marked as new, waiting final review for addition/rejection.

hello and thanks you f4om all of us who are waiting to give a bit of updates!
if it's not too late could you give tell me how is STAR confederation, pg: star command?

thank you again

Same as above.

Hi Brett C, any news for Van?

Van is not listed as a player group.

Any news regarding the faction K9 Corporation?

Marked as new, waiting final review for addition/rejection.

I assume the May 22 was a mistake and meant for someone else as we didn't apply until November?

Seriously, thanks so much for the update Brett, some welcome news for our group as we've grown from like 13 players to over 50 in the past few weeks!

Any info you can share on what's next in the process or is 'queue for addition' it? And may I ask what 'barring the final scripts to be ran' means?

Waiting for engineering to run their scripts at this point pending their final reviews. The scripts do checks on system placement, desc validation, etc.

Hi Brett,
Could you please let me know how the application for Democratic Cooperative is going? Struggling to keep hold of the minimum 10 supporters at the minute...
Many thanks

Greetings.
I have some sort of a request to ya... So, over the last year we, Ross Councillum, tried to get ourselves a minor faction for no avail. Accepted, not added, whatever.
Unfortunately due to some internal tensions our player group has collapsed, so RC only consists of 6 people now. So I want to ask removal of any Ross Councillum Player Group/PMF requests, since that group does not exist anymore.

On April 11th I sent a request for a completely new PG+PMF being "Low and Co"+"Low Stargazers Co" respectively. Would love to hear its state if possible, more precisely - is the system available?
Thanx in advance, good luck o/

Will tag it as Rejected at this time.

I cannot validate at this time if the requested system is available or not.

Hey, Brett. If possible, could I have an update on the Terminus Syndicate application? Thank you.

Another faction applied for the 'Beta Circini' system well before your minor faction application. The two other systems applied for, i cannot validate at this time - that relies on engineering to run their scripts.

Thanks for all the info Brett. Can I have a brief update on Knights of the Black on Monday then please?

Marked as new, waiting final review for addition/rejection.

Hi Brett, can we have a status update for the "Hyperion Intelligence Agency" please?
We'd made a previous player group and PMF application sometime ago (PG: Hyperion Rebels, PMF: Hyperion Intelligence Agency) but it was unclear if this got properly voided/or rejected, but we believe so.

Marked as new, waiting final review for addition/rejection.

It should be noted you have two applications in the system. One on Aug 18 2017 and One on Mar 21 2018. The August 2017 application will be rejected in favor of the March 21 2018 application.

Still nothing by email and no reply on here either.

I have reached out to you on many an occasion, over the past 18 months or so, by DM, email, etc but you never relpy or even acknowladge my questions!

As I pointed out, we would like to resubmit but cannot untik we know how to rectify the error.

I have noticed that you have replied to others many times since so I am beginning to think this is personal.


Yours frustrated and dissapointed,
Gus

PMF is? It's difficult to remember all 1500 PMF's we have on the sheet, let alone keeping track of what is where with the tools I have right now.

@Brett C:

Hey Brett, could you give me an Info/Status of my PMF?
Name is: The Empires Fleet

Hi since people are asking for updates id love to know the status of The Forbidden Citizens ty

The Forbidden Citizens is not listed as a PMF on this sheet.

Hey Brett, do you have any information on my PMF, we accidentally submitted two forms forgetting we had submitted one already.

It will either be United Nations or UNSC Nightfall Initiative

Thanks in advance!

HR 4734 as your primary will be rejected as another PM in 2017 has it listed. Your secondary or tertiary system choice will be used. I cannot validate if your second and third systems at this time will be safe or not.

Hello Brett ! Do you have some infos about our PMF ?
Should be 'DarkLight Squadron'

Thanks for all your help !

Has a special note tagged to it. Will PM you shortly.

Since so many have asked, and since a few changes have been made to our pf could you tell me the system the Aegion Cartel has been accepted for?

You've three submissions on the chart, the first two will be rejected / have been rejected.

LHS 6427 will not be permitted to be used, another PMF is in it since 2016. Your secondary and tertiary choices will be used.

Eh, it is what it is. The current process has outgrown our community. The community keeps growing year after year. [big grin]

Because the folks who deal with minor factions have a huge amount of other tasks to get completed for 3.x (and beyond).

One of the larger delays is that PMF descriptions have to be manually added to the local game client.

 

[T'Sanak]

Hi Brett,

You do mention Platinum Imperia as new / pending. I suppose that it awaits the engineers script. I am quite worried about this allegiance thing as the imperial corp is no longer in power while it is a native faction nonetheless. We did request imperial corp for this reason. Do we have to BGS back in control, will it pass as only being present? The BGS is quite challenging with the faction involved. Last question: confirm our likely system so if we do BGS, we do it in the right place...

Thanks

Local Client? Mmkay?! So be it.

Can you tell me anything about PMF: Ravagers Resurrection?

Careful, Darth Nerferous will have a go at you for asking about a specific PMF....

PMF = Pilot Syndicate 4
Rejected for not fitting with ED time line whatever that means.

 

[Darth Nerferous]

LOL

 

[ethzero]

Much obliged for the update Brett C, thanks!

 

[CrazyDiamond]

Seconded

Brett C., thank you for the update.

 

[Auronio]

Brett,

Another question, maybe not an easy one.

On your first rejection list from April 9th you mentioned the rejection of

64th Kitsune Wanderer with the rejection reason of No mentions of other PMF's .

As the Kitsune guys are another player group playing in the name of Li Yong-Rui we asked them what they did and - though they are not 100% sure anymore - they believe they had mentioned SiriusGov in their PMF description.

Now the point is - we (Sirius Special Forces) have mentioned SiriusGov in our faction description as well. But SiriusGov is no PMF (no PMF with this name existing in the game) but in fact SiriusGov is part of the game lore which is evident from simply opening the powerplay tab for Li Yong-Rui where SiriusGov (the executive arm of Li Yong-Rui's Sirius Corporation) is mentioned.
Also - though 2nd level information - mentioned here: http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Li_Yong-Rui

So should you have time to check, I would ask you the simple question whether the reference of SiriusGov in the faction description would be a rejection criteria and if so why?

Thx

Brett C, take a bow.

 

[Justinian Octavius]

One of the larger delays is that PMF descriptions have to be manually added to the local game client.

Is it possible to defer doing the descriptions until a later date so that people can get their PMFs in game sooner? Or does it currently have to all be done at the same time?

If my memory serves me well, Brett said the descriptions would be inserted in the game after the PMFs have been added.

To me he mentioned a page ago that it is part of the reason for the delay ...
