Title: Allied Orders Sent
Post by: trax1 on March 20, 2008, 04:01:26 AM
I sent out the Allied orders, please let me know if you didn't receive them.  Sorry I wasn't able to send out the map, I'll have it done and to you by 1:00 P.M CST at the latest, it's just I'm a full time student and I'm about to drop asleep here, just thought I'd atleast send out the orders since they were already done.

Trax,

I received the Allied Orders...

However, you saved them in MS Office 2007 Word format (docx)...that format is not readable by 99% of the folks out here, unless you have downloaded and installed the Office 2007 Compatibility Pack from Microsoft. You should have saved them as a standard Word .doc or .pdf file.

Also, the orders received were incomplete. They consisted of just the first page (intro and intel), with no specific Squad instructions included.

Still waiting...

Yep....same thing here. Try pdf, that works the best. Regular doc form will work too.

It is fairly easy to use a free product like CutePDF print driver to make any document a PDF.  And almost every computer today has a PDF reader available to it.  Macs, Linux, Windows -- all read PDF documents.  I would strongly encourage any CiC to distribute orders in PDF format.  Its easy, cheap, and is almost universal.

Sorry guys, It was late so I apologize for that, I'm trying to convert it to a pdf and get it out, again sorry guys.

Edit: If anyone can concert it to a pdf for me please pm me, I'm having a little trouble doing it, thanks.

Ok sorry for all the mix up's here, it's my first time as CiC so I'm bound to stumble, but I've sent out the full orders in pdf format, and I've sent the map with it.  Please let me know if you didn't receive it.

Thanks to everyone for the patience with regard to the things sent to wrong addresses.

Trax has been taking over command of my squad and I'm bringing him up to speed... I forgot to explain the process with regard to the emails, so really this is my bad...

Thank you all for your understanding.

Yeah, I'm still flying mostly only FSO though...  I'll probably get more into AH again sometime, but right now there just lots of other hobbies pulling my attention.

Ok, I just posted about this in the Axis thread I started but I'll explain it here too, for some reason the FSO email addresses section in the Special Events is all messed up, several Axis squads are listed under the Allied email section, and some Allied squads are listed multiple times, so if you received multiple copys of the same email from me thats why, I'm sure the CM's will get this fixed and there will be no problems like this in frame 3.  So again sorry for all the confusion when it comes to this.

I'll ask Forhim to look into it.

Thanks, I just went in there and counted, under the Allied email section theres I believe 34 squads listed, definitely something wrong.

Allied orders being sent to a couple of Axis squads was not Traxes fault there was a glitch with the AH events site that involved some squad named "ace" trying to register. I removed them and reset the side assignments and all appears to be back to normal.

Again Not Traxes fault.

Sorry it happened, some glitch with the site.

If anyone has a screenshot of what the "ace" squad registration looked like, I'd like to see it.  I'm trying to figure out if there was something wrong with their registration that hosed other things up, I want to know what it is.

Post by: trax1 on March 21, 2008, 12:58:14 PM
When I saw Ace squad listed on there I never saw any emails listed for them, just the squad name.

Thank god it didn't end up being my fault, here I was thinking early yesterday that my first time out as CiC & I've gone and done one of the worst things you can do as CiC by giving my orders to the enemy, even though I never thought anyone on the Axis side that got them would have even looked at them, people in FSO tend to be very honest when it comes to these things, and don't want to spoil the fun by knowing whats gonna happen.

Were any adjustments made to compensate Axis potentially knowing the Allied orders or will it continue the same?
Title: Re: Allied Orders Sent
Post by: trax1 on March 21, 2008, 04:28:57 PM
We'll continue the same, there were only a few Axis squad CO & XO's that received the orders, and I don't think any of them would have cheated by looking at them and then using the info.  I think the squads who participate in FSO aren't the kind to want to cheat.  If they did they would have to communicate with the other squads they're working with that they know were to go to intercept us, and I don't think anyone would go along with that and not say something.
