Yes. It's in the first post as well.

Copy that. SJ. Didn't wanna "ride herd" on the gang traversing the gate routes. Will be on site, PFD, before the appointed moment.

Yeah, thanks. I know that Italy and the U.S. flip on different weekends ... and, when it happens, nothing goes right.

You bet!

Well... I still don't know when we'll change time.... in the end I'll log and see how we're set and if I'm able to join.... .blasted time zones.

My Sentiments Exactly, Denny.

SeeJay · Post by **SeeJay** » Thu Oct 13, 2011 9:51 pm

Rules changed.

Teaming up is not allowed. This is not a clan vs clan competition.

I also allow Deploying repair station. Gonna be interesting to see if
anyone dares to use one:P

Maarschalk · Post by **Maarschalk** » Thu Oct 13, 2011 10:58 pm

LOL.....SeeJay is that because of our little practice sension in the Cave today?....The repair station that is!....

:P:P:P:P:P:P

Busch · Post by **Busch** » Fri Oct 14, 2011 2:30 am

Not available in Saph, but elsewhere, are other "practise areas". Familiarity, in this case, does not breed the usual. Different offerings at each locale; interesting objets d'arte.
Think military standardizes, civy customizes. Both are vaild, and can be very lethal, in and of themselves.

SJ, as ref, I'll work with the ROE's as finalised. If I may, I'd like to post an objection to repair/refuel/energy stations; except as hard-wired by game/sim software. Suggest leaving your repair option for another LMS cage-fight. Skill and equipment, cunning, planning, and etc. will be the truest test and challenge, in this one. Endurance, agility, equipment expertise.....All in the mix. Run fair, you arrive, what ever the pilot/combatants choose to fly. Let's not prolong this any further than absolutely necessary, please. I would like to start this as the last, with the deployment of a sensor array at the final/secondary destination. My experience from the last, this tends to lend a better "observational aspect" from my ref OP/LP post. Should this not be a desired option from the current List, in all of your individual experiences from the last, I won't. I'll entertain suggestions for an alternate start signal. They're your strategies and tactics as PIC's, not mine.

Second to Busch about the repair station.

SeeJay · Post by **SeeJay** » Fri Oct 14, 2011 6:02 am

Oki. I hear you and bow to your wisdom Busch.
Also, feel free to deploy the Sensor when you are set up outside the Cave.

The deployment of repair station is not allowed.

LOL, No Maars, that's not it. A bit up Marvin had a comment to it and I thought that
it would be fun to see if anyone dared to try it. It was a weird session last night.
I flew through the cave wall ending up outside and once I also got stuck in the wall. LOL.

Good fun!:P

I've mapped the cave system and used deployed stations as "breadcrumbs". One disadvantage is that they are self illuminating so you can see where you are quite easily (relatively

) from quite a long way away

It's actually quite small in there (unless I've missed a passage way to another section) and with the number of us prowling around I'm not sure that there will be room if we all start popping stations

LOL.....It would get crowded in there with all kind of Stations deployed and moving around will become tighter....The rules how ever stays the same no deployed stations allowed in the cave except maybe for the referees a Sensor Array........

:P:P:P:P:P

Good!

- I only mentioned this because SeeJay said that a repair station would be allowed

Post by **Marvin** » Fri Oct 14, 2011 11:13 pm

SeeJay changed my mind (reprogrammed, actually).

Sinbad · Post by **Sinbad** » Sat Oct 15, 2011 2:36 pm

Can someone put my name down on the list? I'd like to throw myself into this brawl!

Sinbad · Post by **Sinbad** » Mon Oct 17, 2011 5:25 pm

ok, brought this over to the correct thread.

From post: 117163, Topic: tid=8016, author=SeeJay wrote:Hey MCCON.

That's a great idea. You could participate and still document your fighting if
you still want to participate.

I can not guarantee your safety in the cave when the fighting is on, LOL!
We will all probably shoot at any target in range!:P

I think documenting and participating at the same time won't work so well because I'm sure I'll get blown up really quick and so lose out on videoing the rest of the round. Would be better if I abstained from taking part and assumed an observer role... that way I could concentrate on filming good shots, changing camera perspectives, giving some commentry etc. Maybe if I use my clan tag I'll show up a different colour to everyone else which would make it slightly easier to distinguish me from combatants. In any case if I do get accidently shot down I could save close by and respawn to continue filming.

I don't like my secret hiding spots in the Cave documented and exposed for all to see.....(Just Kidding).......

Sure thing MCCON.

It's your call. You have free passage in the Cave at your own risk!;)

Ok, I'll be in there as a neutral member of the press. Wow... frontline war journalism! My toughest assigment yet. Risking my life for the cause of the Free Press!! Don't worry Maars... I'm sure your secrets won't be revealed, I'll probably get lost myself.

Make sure your ship is marked as a News Caster vehicle. "Don't shoot the messenger" does not really work in the heat of the moment.....You can allways use the [PRES] Clan Tag and the Referee's Use [REF]........

I was all set to go at it this last Sunday an asked [EG] LexOR if he would be there when he set me straight as to the right date.

Post by **DaveK** » Tue Oct 18, 2011 4:28 pm

I hate all the time zones and the little twiddly extras like GMT and the fact that it's changing back again soon . . . . ramblr rant rant

But - is the starting time the same as the Rally start time and the LMS start time? - they are my new criteria for international time!

Busch · Post by **Busch** » Wed Oct 19, 2011 2:35 am

I'll support Maars' suggestion on the "NewsCaster" nymic for McCon/Sinbad during the melee filming. No bracketing, just the name. We should all know you by now.

Good idea, Maars ! I'll probably post, non-tagged, at/near the field entry point. Hopefully the intrepid combat photog's tag will be enough.

:P:P:P:P
