Title: Old Farts night this Sat. 6pm Eastern.
Post by: Frodo on September 18, 2002, 06:23:49 PM
In case you missed this in the other thread.:D

Be nice to see HT and Pyro there.;)

Frodo

Old Farts night - Saturday 21 Sept, festivities start 6pm eastern time. Country to be determined at 6pm Eastern. End time is whenever we either get tired or head to the test arena so we can throw a little free-for-all.

OBJECTIVE: Have fun, kill people (virtually of course, don't wanna get sued for threatening certain people)

METHODS: Aircraft preferred, supporting ships and vehicles accepted in the spirit with which the participation is intended.

TACTICS: Gaggle around and meet head-on all who oppose us. If anyone is ambitious enough to set up mission profiles or wants to fly the same plane as everyone else to make us stand apart, that is strongly encouraged. I plan on flying whatever Drex flies, and I'll suggest we fly the FM2 since I recently heard it should be perked  

WHO's INVITED: If you consider yourself an "old fart" entitled to hang out with guys like Drex and Jagr simply because you remember way back when they sucked (Drex still sucks btw), you're invited. Any/all members of the Rogue Gryffons, Black Sheep, Dweebs of Death, Flying Pigs, those irritating JG guys from WB, or anyone who ever participated in a BYACAW (BarnYard Animals Composite Air Wing) event are invited by definition. Old-school iENT, HTC, and Cornered Rat current or past employees are also invited.

Anyone else who wants to fly with us is also invited  

OPPONENTS: Anyone brave enough to stand (or whine) against us.

Tactical channel will be determined later (because I don't remember enough about global and country channels), but 133 will be the initial coordination channel.

ROE: Taunts MUST be good natured and not excessive or we may find ourselves without quality opponents. Spying via second accounts or allies in other countries is discouraged except when used for the express purpose of finding where the most opponents are so we can fight them. Base capture is allowable especially when it will reduce the flight time from ones home field to the fight, however the goal is quality air combat, not capturing territory.

The phrase "If you're not cheating you're not trying" is applicable within the guidelines set by HTC and the spirit of the event. Use your best judgement.

I don't know anything about scheduled events...

The Old Farts night will continue until the FREE BEER is gone so anyone who flies in the regularly scheduled event can hit the MA with us afterwards

 In commemoration of the event HTC needs to change the arena "easter egg" , the bottle of Shiner Bock and a large pizza, with a bottle of Geritol and box of Depends.

Hmmm...

Don't want to interfere with a scheduled event.

Anyone object to pushing it to Sunday then?  I hate to change a good plan and even this half-assed plan probably shouldn't be changed either, but maybe Sunday would be better...

Objections?

What time's good for you guys?  Later would be better for me personally, but then again I wouldn't want to hold things up just for me being late :)

Any good TV shows that we have to see and start the OFN (Old Farts Night) afterwards?

7pm eastern?  We don't REALLY need a hard and fast start time since there really isn't exactly a specific target-oriented mission, so we could just trickle in with a goal of having a bunch of guys around at 7pm eastern, tuned to the same channel ready to lay down the law...
