Taking my CM hat off, I'm speaking as a 7+ year participant of FSO so don't take what follows as an official CM response, just a pissed off players perspective

From the rules page on ahevents.org about FSO:
Quote
- When it is that squads turn to provide a Frame CiC in Squad Operations and they are unable, then the squadron must find a replacement Frame CiC or risk being removed from Squad Operations.

I guess we'll be short an Allied squad starting this week also.  If you sign-up, you've agreed to all the rules regarding the FSO event, that includes doing the duties as CiC when given them.  This rash of not doing your responsibility is going to stop or FSO will have to stop.  Knowing the effort a lot of people put into the event, I'm guessing it will be the former and not the latter.  I'd recommend all squads re-evaluate their personal commitment to the event and its rules before signing up for next month's event.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

The AK's will volunteer. Expect them to be late and not very pretty. ETA is noon Friday.

Confirm AKs then, you have the thanks of the FSO Community, appreciate that very much. We are working on putting a stop to any more of this kind of thing.

 :salute  AKs from an Axis participant.

wasn't that same squad, the one that failed FSO this week, suspended for cheating in FSO about a year ago?

Don't know about what you posted or care but you left out the part of how they are stepping up to the plate so that you can fly this Friday night with little or no warning.  A thank you would probably be better words.

I saluted the AKs in my original post. 

My second sentence was regarding the 357th Death Dragons that failed to do their duty.  NOT the AKs, who always take care of business.  Sorry for any confusion.

 :salute WxMan. I appreciate your effort.

If I read this right, 880 SQD is not going to be able to fly this FSO? I have a problem with the penalty for Warloc and his squad if this is in fact correct.

I have played in FSO's from the beginning and have no problem with the rules. But to ban the squad from participating because they needed a replacement CiC is wrong.

I believe he has satisfied the rule by getting someone to cover him. There is no reason to give the squad such a stiff penalty.

I have known Warloc and his squad for many years and they live for FSO.

Please reevaluate the decision if in fact you intend to remove this squad from this FSO.

I hope I am wrong about this and its just a misunderstanding, if it is the case, please disregard this post.

Did he find a replacement?  It looks to me like Staff had to post a plea for someone to step up and fill the gap.  Which in my mind is different then someone saying, "I can't do it unfortunately.  But I got this guy to fill the void."  Looks to me like all that happened was, "I can't do it."
