I'm sorry, but this is complete bullcrap.

Did you even look at the plane preferences to see which squads actually updated their info for this month?

My squad actually did update for this month and you put us on the Allied side despite our request for Axis.

But there is no excuse for this when I see other squads having "Just happy to help" or planes from past setups in their preferences. They either have no preference, or simply do not care. Move those guys to make the numbers work, but don't penalize the squads who actually care to update their preferences every month.

You can do better than this.

The Pigs update faithfully every month and have been denied our side choice at least twice in the last year. Not to mention we have been switched twice after the first frame in two other setups. As I understand it we are not guaranteed a side or ride preference. This happens. With that said I agree in principle with what Devil has said. Squads need to make the effort to stay updated.

But were there multiple other squads on the side you requested who are listed the same commitment level as your squad but also did not update for that month?

That's my point.

Why is a squad moved counter to their current request over a squad of the same size who did not update?

412th specifically requested Axis and got switched to Allied after the "update". I specifically requested Axis because we flew Allied the last time this setup was ran.

We just want some variety and I updated as soon as I got the notification that this setup was announced.

Not pleased with the changes.

I've been saying for years that update status and ride preferences need to be reset at the start of each month to avoid this crap.
