Hehe Rip. I actually was disappointed when Daddog made the "No buffs" rule.

I believe the A6m5 Zero is the plane for tonight.

I was unbeatable in Warbirds in a B25 vs B25 dogfite.

(Its an art to get that top auto turret gunner in just the right position!)Of course, I was probably the only guy that PRACTICED dogfighting in a B25.

One thing you will have to learn fast about times for events - they should always be announced in two times - Eastern and.... Seeker-time!

He never did seem to be able to make the conversion himself - ask me how I know! LOL j/k Seeker!

Hehe, hard luck - you were Seeker'd!

Event starts at 10pm Eastern which is GMT-6 (is this correct way of expressing it? someone please let me know so that I can use it in the future.)

There are 5 hours difference between GMT (as it is at the moment) and Eastern Time. In the summer there are still 5 hours difference between us, but then we are an hour ahead of GMT. CET is another hour ahead of us, so is a total of 6 hours ahead of Eastern time.

Only time it can get confusing is one or other of us puts clocks back/forward before the other!

Hem...

If I recall good there is Zulu Time to avoid this kind of mess no ?

Why don't you use UTC ?

didnt the kraits have a scenario time conversion program in sac?

think we could talk the programer into distributing that part of the program?

maybe even a link off of the ACES HIGH main page..

during the Akfria corps scenario there was a time zone converter off the htc webpage if i remember correctly.

I doubt I will make it, but I know several CM's who work hard on our events will.

<S> Gents! Have fun!

Thanks a lot to Sling and the team for a really smooth event.

That was a blast - having clouds give it a dimension AW could never have approached - and the fights were intense (if short, in my case

)

I won't be making it every week, but I'll make many, that was fun.

I had a great time!

Thanks many times over sling, and the rest of the CM team! I really appreciate you doing this for us!
