Bouncing back and forth isn't going to help.  You'll have fun whichever side you are on, but at some point, sooner then later making the commitment if you are going to fly it will be important.

I know, i originally signed up for axis, then wanted to fly the P51. But i have been flying the 109K A LOT lately and i kinda like it. SO i'm not quite sure what i'll do.

You can join the Allied horde, or fly with the best pilots in the war and defy the world in Das Luftwaffe.

We are the best not because we want to be, but because we have to be.

I think the issue is he already was moved from Axis to Allied.  Now he's thinking he wants to go back.  Not sure if he's in the forums or not.

Jolly,

Fly as a walk on.

You can then try both sides and mix and match at will.

In the past, as a walkon, your first frame in the scenario locked you into whichever side you were assigned to join.  Only the group would change if you flew in later frames.

Thus mix and matching at will between the allies and axis is forbidden.

Has this changed?

jolly22 was assigned to II/JG11 the last I'd heard.  I wasn't notified he'd left. 

Looks like I'd better start recruiting harder.

Join II/JG11 today!!

Not sure about this Kermit...

You are probably right and I am probably wrong.

I make the comment because after running dozens and dozens of logs through my program, all the way back to Rangoon, I would see guys switching back and forth frequently...Allied one week, Axis the next. Never heard of anyone making a stink of it during those events. I have Boolean property value "TeamSwitcher" of the pilot object in code that resolves to True if the guy has played both sides. Looking into their performance they never had an effect on an outcome

Like I said, you are probably right and I am probably wrong.

If you join the Allied, you're just going to die to us.

Fly with me. Luftwaffe.

If you registered allied, then requested and got a your registration changed to axis by the CM's, you aren't going to be changed back again.  It is work for us to change a person's registration.  We except the vast majority of people to stick to the side for which they register.  For the occasional person who requests a switch of their existing registration, we usually accommodate it; but asking to switch your registration back and forth multiple times is just jerking us around and creating needless work for us, and we don't accommodate that.

I love it when the Luftwaffe guys step in a cow pie like this...

I have a face...and I have a palm....should I deploy the latter upon the former?

jolly... take my advice my friend. choose for yourself which side to fly. But if i must say my opinion... I personally am CO of the 20th Loco Busters for the scenario and even i am saying axis needs more members to fly. Allies are almost full as of now slotwise.

He's already been allowed to change sides.  Brooke's point was it's work to make the changes and enough is enough.
