How do I write Logs?

Logs are perhaps the seemingly most difficult task of an officer.  Once an officer gets used to writing logs, they become rather easy.  Log-writing is similar to Email Simming and as such, many email sims do not require logs.  In the week following a sim, an officer is expected to write a short log entry about what went on in the sim.  This may include what you did, how you felt, etc.  After completing a log, officers are required to email them to their CO and/or crewmates.  Here is a sample log entry:

Personal Log

Commander Alexander Dax
Episode:  Dark Alley, Part 2

The USS Centauri-A has located the source of the mysterious anion particles in the Icara System.  Icara is a ternary star system located near the edge of the Orion Belt.  Lt Torres tells me that the system has no planets and only a single rouge comet.  This is definitely an intriguing turn of events.  I have faith in this crew that we will solve the mystery of the Pulsar's disappearance and find out why there are anions in the Icara system.  Until then, I have ordered the ship stay at yellow alert.

The crew's paranoia levels have steadily risen.  While I cannot account for the overall stress of the crew, I believe it may have something to do with the fact that the mysterious anion particles seem to be blocking our REM sleep patterns.  Perhaps this is what happened to the Pulsar…?
