I'm finishing them up at the moment, they will be emailed soon.  I had posted they would be out late tonigh or early tomorrow morning.

Give me a break man, I got the objective Monday, I'm a full time student in college, tonight was the firs chance I had to work on them, I started working on them at 9, so I put 7 non stop hours working on it, this is my first time as CiC, so I'm sorry if I got it in a few hours late.

trax, goodluck with the Orders!

I'm guilty of late orders myself, by giving them out Friday Morning!  I had to start working on them Thursday night and finished early Friday morning.
I did everything I could to get it done ASAP.  I reviewed the plans over a few times to make sure everyone had a good chance of completing their goal.
I did get a tad tired before finalizing them and that caused me to make a mistake.  It was a busy week for me so I had 4 hours of sleep each night with 12hour work shift and lots of pressure.

If you get tired, get some sleep and finish them up after you wake up or at lunch time.  If you want, you could send a SQUAD-to-PLANE assignment as soon as you can.  This way the squads can practice the bomber or fighter in advance.  Then send the orders as soon as you can, at a later point.  I've seen this done a few times these past FSO and I think they are a great idea.

Trax, good luck with your first CiC!

Time's fun when you're having flies.

Com'on MGD that is not necessary and NOT nice.

Early Thursday morning is acceptable, especially with some of the late changes we have had.

Everyone also please realize that I delayed Trax1 orders .. he was close to going yesterday but with the release I had to do some testing on whether to swap out the P40Es with P39Ds or not for frame 2. This set him back several hours.

Thanks, I just started back in November, I'm going to DeVry to get a Bachelors degree in CIS(computer information systems), I've been out of school for 10 years now, so it's taking some getting use to, to be studying & doing home work again.  Thankfully I don't have classes on Thursday so I was able to stay up until 4 am working on the orders.

Yeah, been there done that. Just finished a masters in August at the ripe ole age of 53. Heck didn't get my BS until I was 37. Try going to school with 3 kids and an IRATE wife.

Anyway, sorry for the thread hijack all. All the best to you Trax!
