to decieve everyone about what is really happening on the side that is loosing.
problem is no one cares.
if they are not having fun in the event and I can speak for all the ones that are not then it dosnt matter anyway.
but there it is. most of us on axis have detested this scenario since it started and went along with it only to be manipulated by CM's twisting the thing trying to tell us we are having fun when the thing just sucks.
So based on the fact that "Most of us on the axis" have detested the scenario, then you re suggesting a mass exit for the majority of the LW?
So you were coerced into flying it? Somehow the CMs conned you into doing something you didn't want to do?
If that's the case, why are you still doing it? Not much point if you are that miserable.
You've clearly decided that somehow this was designed to punish you in some way shape or form, or that some folks are so determined to 'win' that they'll slant things to give them an edge so they can't lose.
I wish you could have heard the tone after the frame. No one talking points or winning. People talking about the experience they had and the moments that gave them a slight feel for the history.
We in the 38s got talking about what it must have been really like, flying that high, with it that cold, relying on oxygen, potential mechanical difficulty, the potential for real death etc. It lead to talk about some of the guys grandfathers. We had a Tarawa, Saipan, Okinawa vet. A Guadalcanal vet, a Navy vet of the pacific. A grandpa who went ashore on D-day +2 in France.
We never discussed how we were going to make anyone miserable. We just had fun. We understood the potential was there to get mugged or to be the mugger. I jumped when the flak went off the first time. We appreciated the little moments in these things that set them apart from the hamster wheel of the MA. I woudln't trade it for all the MA days I've ever had.
I doubt there will be any way to please you. I'd suggest you design a scenario and show us how it's to be done better since you clearly have opinions on how it should be.
More then happy to fly it on either side.
