Title: Who you can thank for Special Events
Post by: daddog on February 15, 2009, 07:29:04 PM

Someone posted in a thread and mentioned some names of who we should thank for Special Events. In my opinion the post was in error and a disservice to those who have put in hundreds and even thousands of hours over the years for Special Events.

Special Events such as Friday Squad Operations, Scenarios, CAP, Close Escort, AHZAR League, KOTH, Sunday Night Scramble, SEC, HMS, to name a few.

Some of the names listed below are from many years past. Some will surprise you. Some contributed very little, others contributed for years and years. It is not complete, but it is about as close as I can get. :) I apologize if I left someone out.

So if you want to thank someone for events take a look below and say thanks.

Na Stixx. Did that on purpose.

:D

Sorry Repo!!!

Was Hajo a CM B4? I did not list those that assisted in Scenarios. That would probably double the length of the list. :)
I was just sticking to contributing CM's.

daddog forgot his name and the fact that

One of the first members of the CM Team
Helped create FSO, Snapshots and other events that have come and gone
CM Team CO 2 or 3 times
Taught most of us the ins and outs of the team and events

Thanks gents!

I think you forgot Guppy/Corky/Dan, he may not be a CM but I know you gents pick his brain very often to keep the scenarios running smoothly.

You also forgot Fencer, who designed (mostly likely) the best scenario and has countless more in the works.

You also forgot Raptor (not the same as Raptor01), who was on the terrain design team.

Those 'assistants' have not only fueled the continued events, but are also where the CMs draw fresh blood from replace those CMs that have become worn out. I wouldn't diminish their efforts...

<S> to all those

I'd like to add the memory of 68 KO to that mix.

Title: Re: Who you can thank for Special Events
Post by: daddog on February 16, 2009, 10:25:53 AM

68KO is listed near the top with the rest of the 68 CM's.

The CM team was started by Vermillion, not Ghostdancer. Ghostdancer was the Head CM a few years back.

Thanks Delirium. I am sure I left off several. Wish I could edit my post, but again I am posting about those who have been CM's and worked the Events we have here in Aces high.

I thank the CMs at every event I attend.  Just from my brief stint of CMing in AW, I appriciate the time and effort it takes to provide events for a community.  :salute

Title: Re: Who you can thank for Special Events
Post by: Hajo on February 16, 2009, 04:54:43 PM

There are a great many who give to the community in various ways.

CMs.  do a thankless job....they are the best.  Try making Beef Stew without Beef.  They do.
Trainers....take their personal time to help make the game more pleasurable for many people.
Skinners.....it takes time to research and skin the perfect aircraft.
Scenario Designers......ideas and design suggestions do at times come from the general population.
Fencer designed imho the best scenario yet DGS.



Maps and Terrains.   Oh boy.....talk about time consuming.  Then HTC changes the terrain graphics LOL

Those with ideas for something different offering something for the MA's to do besides horde (MoMs)

It's a good community we have here.  Trying to name them would take lots of research.

The list Daddog made was a start.
