FSO Start Time Poll
« on: September 13, 2011, 08:54:13 PM »
Please get all of your squad members to vote! The results of this poll will be concluded after 28 days. At that time the results will be released. The FSO staff is not required to make any changes to the start time as a result of the poll but the poll will be used to guide us in a final decision on this matter. Thank you.

I know we have a couple European players on.  Would that force them to get out of bed an hour earlier?

I voted yes, only because my new job has forced me out of FSO.

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!

Changes the whole makeup of FSO for me. Instead of being a higher probability of making it it turns into a nearly 100% chance of not making it.

My only concern is that it would hurt the existing player base without assurance of bringing in any new players.  You need to take note of the number of people who are saying they do not support a time change.  Odds are, that is the number you stand to lose immediately... and that does not factor in those that do not visit the boards and didnt vote, or those that would leave because their friends left who woudlnt be able to fly due to a time change.  If a squad CO has to drop out, you run the risk of losing an entire squad.

Split the difference.

Im not going to bother with making it a sticky but I will bump it to the point where I think we have enough responses. All squads have been emailed re the poll. Please ask your members to vote.

My squad  {The GunFighters} will be affected in both ways. The earlier start will allow some of my squaddies to join that normally wouldn't cause they don't like to stay up so late. Others won't be able to fly now due to not getting on line in time. I personally don't work a 9-5 job and don't know until that day if I can make FSO or not so the change is irrelevant to me.
