Title: Friday Squad Ops and black out.
Post by: icemaw on August 15, 2003, 11:41:21 AM
I am in CA so I am good to go tonight. However with the blackouts in the North East are we going to run Squad Ops Tonight? The Marine Air Wing have several that fly in squad ops in the NE. I am sure many squads do. Will setup CM's even be availible? Something to think about.

Is the power still off then?  I would plan for the SquadOps to be going ahead as usual and go from there.  I have really no idea at this point who on the CM team is affected and who isn't - apart from those of us who live in the UK and Europe.  Hopefully there will be a SetupCM available.  I will post if I hear more.

Just been chatting to Innomin8 on ICQ and he had his power restored at 7.00 this morning, so should be able to make it OK.  A lot now depends on how many can get there....

I expect turnout not to be very good tonight for TOD. Innominate does have power is going to do what he can to make it. He also has given me the table name and password for the table. I am in Florida so I should be there. Although I have been experiencing alot of net problems since we lost the North East U.S., parts of Canada and the Midwest .. go figure. ;)

Numbers were low. Around 160 to 170. Usually 10 to 20 more than that.

Not as bad as I expected for last night .. we had 164 turnout. As Daddog says usually we are closer to 200.
