OK.  I'll be the one to ask:  Is Santa flying this Christmas Eve?

Magic 8 Ball says: My sources say, "YES."

Talked to HT on the phone a bit earlier, he said about 8PM Central time, Santa should be logged in and in the air. 
Looking forward to it, haven't been home on Christmas Eve in years and years to take part in this.

So that would have been about 5 minutes ago, right?

If you were a Rook you wouldn't have been able to get within 2K of Santa without getting jumped by about twenty Bish.

The Christmas Ceasefire was a myth this year.    :cry

It should make everyone within visual of Santa indestructible. That would fix those lacking in chivalry.

Yep.  Or a killshooter within icon range.

They really ruined it this year.  I had half a dozen people who wanted to see Santa.  I had them all excited about how silly and fun it was.  Turned into a complete cluster because some players wanted to be bozos instead of following tradition.  They knew better.

Flossy, I told you I filmed santa last night. 
If anyone has access a third party website to host the santa films, PM me and I can send what I have to you. 
Film2 was the better of the two; Film1 was done over a rook base, and with everyone trying to still shoot one another down, I kept my Deuce at or around 20K in anticipation that
Santa might grab some alt and fly around the map...........just CRAZY trying to catch a glimpse of him while dodging would be shooters.
Film2, I was able to get pretty close for a bit, listen to the "Christmas music" exhaust sound........my wife thought I was crazy, acting like a little kid again the way I was reacting I guess......I wear headphones while flying in AH, so she couldn't hear what I was hearing, might have assuaded her fears of my apparent insanity....lol.
Thanks, Santa/HiTech...........been over ten years since I was to be online on Christmas Eve and do the whole Santa experience.  It was worth every minute!

I'm fairly certain you can upload films and screenshots to that forum.
