We need to have a bloopers moment of FSO.   Just like the other night with friendly collision on the runway.  :rofl

You have no idea how much I appreciate those private messages.  When we are setup we are at a quite field away from the action (Some Setups actually stay Rook).  So I am looking at the clipboard.  The only way I know what is happening to you guys is with your PMs.  Big <S>.

Guys, I think there is a problem with the arena.  We all know missions won't work.  When I got the call I switched the arena settings for collisions.  I then got a call that didn't work so I switched back and everyone was able to take off.  Also, in my defense Mystic2 was setup.  As a courtesy, CM's will come into the arena and look over settings.  As I was doing that, Mystic discoed, then he discoed, then he discoed and couldn't get back in...So, I inherited Setup about 15 minutes before launch. Sorry about the hiccup but it was me or nothing running the event.

dude, sh....stuff happens. when fixing it on the fly by yourself, pressure builds up. no one is blaming you guys.  it happens. god knows I've had to panic fix stuff in the AVA more then once!!! Job well done, glitches and all!! <S>

You are right.  Maybe that did read a little defensive.  What I really want to say is Thank You FSO Squads and players! That is the stressful times, when something is broken.  Still, the private messages when a glitch happens helps us tremendously.  :cheers:

Plissken,

Your work was/is most appreciated!   We had some folks that were also having disco issues just prior to start...the hiccup didn't really surprise us.

Carry  on!

Lol.  That's what I am talking about.  If any of you guys had any blooper moment in FSO that is worthy to share....post it. We all need the laughs.

I think most of us thought it was funny. I was already a couple beers in so it might not have been as funny as it seemed.

I laughed more at this than the 56th getting wiped in our fancy Il-2's!!!!   :uhoh  Happened about the same speed...

Boom, what was that. Boom. I'm dead too. Anyone need a gunner? We're all dead... :headscratch:

Several years ago VF-17 was tasked to bomb a city strat in B-17s. As it happened our bomb accuracy was damn near perfect and we wiped it out with no losses to our buffs. Turns out, through a navigation/communication error, we hit the wrong target.

It has become a running joke in VF-17 every time we get buffs we have to make sure not to bomb the orphanage again.

There was also a classic where fully loaded TBMs were taking off from a carrier and 30 of them went into the drink.  That was on youtube for a while.

how about the one where someone dropped a bomb on the end of the runway and wiped out an entire squad?
