Ya know, we COULD put a Cv with a hog squad on it. Could... it wouldn't be much to ask... all you have to do is aaaasskk an AvA staaaaffer...

Starts Midnight tonight EST, err EDT (eastern daylight time - since ya'll had us canucks change our daylight savings times three weeks sooner to increase shopping).

Anyways, this setup should be a riot. Lots of great wars - I'm thinking about setting the CV's in a similar setup to midway (too bad THAT terrain isn't ready yet) - around a 5-10 minute flight time to one another, in a patrol loop, non-controllable.

Since the low numbers of the AvA makes it risking leaving the milk runners and dweebs to control the fleets, the Admins will be Admirals for this setup. And yes, you can ask them to move a fleet.

Could we have a hog squad PWETTY PWEESE?? And maybe a few Zekes for target practice?

So...is ord going to be disabled? I'm thinking milk runners popping off fast CVs like firecrackers.

well, actually the change in the daylight savings time has 2 purposes, mainly it is done or has been done in the past to increase daytime hours so more work could be done.......

this year it was moved up sooner, mainly to conserve energy........

If ya'll believe that, I got a great bridge in London I could sell ya.

It was done (according to Forbes and NYTimes) to encourage evening spending. The cost of implementing the change technology wise was around 8 BILLION dollars which will take approximately 17 years to recoup the so-called savings for Americans. It does nothing for Canadians who's dark hours are really not impacted by the change due to our northern location.

But we're getting off topic! NAVY BABY!
