we got hit with being assigned bombers twice.....and the allies paid dearly for it!! LOL
to be honest, when i do orders, i look to see what they flew last frame, or last 2 frames assuming i do frame 2 or 3. i dont have the time, nor do i care what happened last month. last time i did orders, it took me 14 hours due to a mistake on my part, plus redoing them twice in order to try to keep everyone happy. its luck of the draw and you just might have to live with it. make it fun! with a little imagination you can do alot of fun stuff with bombers!
and if that doesnt work, let me know. ill send you all of JG54's soiled sheep to keep you company on your next bombing run! :salute
A while back I was doing a very similar series of manual steps to create the attendance spreadsheets. But since I started my new job out here in RL a few months ago, I haven't even had the time to do that. Sorry.
Good for you. Hopefully future CiCs will make sure you and your imagination get to pull the majority of buff assignments. It'll give you more chances to pat yourself on the back.
No sweat Beans, new job first cartoon planes second. Appreciate the effort you put into these things. :aok
Shifty are you joking or serious? If you are joking put something on the end to make that clear! If you are serious you are out of line. This comes across as inappropriate!

maybe the Cm's can keep that list more up to date for us. then they could send out that list as part of the objectives, so that CiC's would have all the information they need in one place. This way the CiC's can better assign squads to planes that are more of their liking.

This way there's a record of what each group flew for the last 6 frames.
its ok pops, i know he meant it in the nicest possible way. coming from shifty, its almost a compliment! hehehe I know where he's coming from and dont blame him, he just likes to use me as a dartboard! its ok with me.
***the above comment was not meant as an insult, shifty, please don't take it as such....just clarifying!

Wow...you guys really expect a lot from a CiC. You're asking for a system that has tremendous problems with upkeep.
I've offered a solution a year or so ago when this was brought up before.
Every CiC has to check the Side list each frame to assign squadrons. In this list it has a preference for aircraft for each frame. If every Squad CO at the end of each frame updates its squadron aircraft preference by simply putting "we flew xxx" in frame 1...frame 2...etc, it would save the CiC tons of time of going through the previous logs and it would lessen the chances of getting bombers more frequently than you should.
This puts the responsibility on the Squadron CO's and not the CiC. If a CO can't spare the few minutes to do this, then he and his squad has no room to b*tch.
This is not a perfect solution as their is a chance that you could fly bombers in frame 3 of the previous event and be assigned the same type of aircraft in frame 1 of the next one, but it should reduce the chances dramatically of the flying the same type during a single event.
I'd be happy to create a small web application to keep track of this stuff, and furthermore, have statistics/data/etc on all players/squads/planes. If the logs are kept in a standard format it would be easy.
If there is interest from the relevant parties, just drop me a line and we can work out what exactly is needed on the technical side.
