Post by: SuBWaYCH on July 02, 2010, 07:10:15 PM
my guess is that they are delaying registration since there is no axis CO.

Really?

I say no way...

They have been on the boards on other issues and that would not be a reason...rather an excuse...

If the system is not ready to take the influx load then 'that' would be a good excuse...


Oh...by the way...Subway...I think its time you move up and be a CO...you should definitly go for it...this is a golden opportunity....

I think you should post your preference here Flos and they make it "count".

Expecting you to stay up much past 1am to grab a spot and not being able to register because of (dunno why just yet) isn't fair.

Perhaps if we were to all focus on opening the registration at the same time, we could telekinetically overcome the technical boundaries. Certainly the mental prowess of those of us here will be sufficient.

Registration will open on July 2nd at 8 pm Eastern Time.

What you register for is what you will fly, first come, first served.

So if you want a particular plane or to fly with particular people, please register before what you want is taken by others.

It's now 8:48 est

I believe that the registration will be postponed until we get it straightened out with the website team.  I expect that a new date and time will be posted when Brooke gets things sorted out.

Sorry all, but as usual with updates to software there are bugs that need squashed.

Looks like some sort of registration is up. Only problem is, it doesn't list me under the squad I registered. Rather, there is a comma. (Registered for 348th FG/342nd FS).

Edited: My registration just disappeared, and I cannot register again.

It is definitely postponed (my only fear being that in fixing it it is left open for a time -- but I explained the situation to the admins and requested that htey close it after fix).

I don't know new date and time yet -- but it is postponed.

Everyone -- to give people plenty of time to get set for opening of registration, I will open it on Monday night at 8 pm Eastern.

That way, for people who are out of town starting from tonight, etc. but who planned on the previous opening of registration aren't disadvantaged.

Sorry folks, for they delay, and many thank to forHIM for getting it all fixed.

Hi Brooke, any chance it could be a little earlier?  As it was I did not get to bed until about 1:45 am last night but at least I don't work today.  However, on Monday night I have work the next morning so will be unable to stay up that late again.  At one point I believe the policy was to open registration on a Saturday at the usual scenario start time of 3:00 pm Eastern, working on the principle that intended participants would be available on the days and times the scenario normally runs?  Anyway hope things get worked out OK, thanks for the postponement. :salute

Howdy, Flossy.  This weekend is one of the bigger holiday weekends in the US, and a lot of people cannot be available Saturday and Sunday.  Except for unusual circumstances like this, I would indeed do it as you suggest, as that is the best way.

Oh yes of course it is!  Hope you all have a great weekend and Happy 4th!  :D

That would be appreciated, Brooke.  8:00 pm is just doable for me providing it works lol.... But for mainland Europe and particularly Finland it is even later.  :)
