DamnedSE is pulling out of FSO
« on: October 16, 2010, 12:43:19 PM »
Yeah it's true. Breaks my heart to do it but we just haven't been getting the turnout required and that's been going on for months. We've been scraping on the minimum or only getting 1 or 2 frame after frame and that can't go on. It's not fair to everybody else. I know as one of the guys that has to come up with the plan from time to time that when that happens it makes a big hole in that plan whether it be on attack of defense and it just messes things up for everyone and last night's frame was a good example of that. But as far as I'm concerned we just can't be that guy making the hole anymore. It wasn't like this was a last straw thing. We've actually been discussing this for quite some time internally. The timing of taking my turn as CiC one last time pretty much nailed it for me. Now I won't mess up the rotation. So it sucks but it's the right thing to do.

There are a few CiCs that when pitted against each other or someone with less experience the outcome can often be predicted.
You are one of them :salute

<S> Drano, we spent many of Friday Nights working together.

If you want to continue in FSO, we got a few spots for you guys.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I offer the same as Nef.  We have slots in the 325th VFG every week.  Would be a pleasure to fly your wing and or with anyone else from the Damned.  Your guys can even have your own flight within the squad so that you can stay together if you want.  Offer will always be there   :salute

I have to add that it was a pleasure and a honor flying with all of you during god knows how many FSO's. Many great times were had, and I will never forget them. Heck, even the bad, when we got our butts kicked FSO's were fun. Sometime in the future the Damned may be back as a squad, but life gets in the way of our fun occasionally. Godspeed to you all, and a BIG  :salute
