Funny C.O./X.O Quirks
« on: April 14, 2012, 09:34:18 AM »
This ought to be a fun topic. I would think every C.O. & X.O. of various squads in this game has odd quirks & does funny stuff in this game that makes for a good laugh or at least a  :headscratch:. For all you squad members, it's time to pick on your superior officer. ;) Let's hear 'em.

Such as when I was with Birds of Prey.. we adopted a directional rule of "Shubie"-east, "Shubie"-west... etc.. because many times when my old X.O. would take a mission up, he'd get the heading screwed up.. he'd inadvertently blurt out the opposite direction. The sad thing is, since I formed the 91st, I think I picked up that bad habit... I do the same damn thing. :rolleyes: (Thanks A LOT, Shubie!)

I'm sure there are a lot of better examples out there, so tell us about your squad leaders.  ;)

When I'm on MY vent server, I like to move everyone into seperate channels and pop in and out of every single channel to irritate everyone before I log into AH.  :lol

For the 80th, we would need a CO long enough for their leadership quirks to come apparent. I think Mir is the CO now, we had a vote and he did not protest, he got the job. Since we have all been the CO at one time or another, the quirk would be our inability to land.

Yes, he was suprisingly quiet about the whole thing  :lol

My CO is Dhyran of Loose Deuce, great guy from Germany. Nothing quirky per se but his German-American translations. Every now and then we hear German phrases but since I don't speak the lingo I insist my tremendous gunnery, formation and team flying skills are being complimented. Life is good in Tennessee!
