When will Frame 1 be held?

Sides will be posted Tuesday Jan 3 then?.  Objectives sent out Jan 3rd and CIC orders mailed the next day Wednesday Jan 4th.  I hope both CIC's will be able to work on a 1 day prep time before Friday Jan 6th assuming they know they are Frame 1 CIC.

Good point, Kuya (and not because you'll still be hung over)  :rock

It's tight timing with all due respect to the holidays.

Just looking out for my fellow CIC's especially if it becomes my turn at bat. :D

Y'know, you could just go ahead and create orders for both sides...Frame 1 will be interesting.

The timing is a little tight because of the holidays.  Sorry.  I will do my level best to get the assignments done and posted that Monday evening.  :salute

I can do that. :devil

Not a problem.  On the write-up for the FSO, there are 4 objectives listed for each side.  Are they going to be the same for all 3 frames?  This will help the Frame 1 CIC's also knowing them in advance also.

Heck just pick them and post on the 30th.  Everyone should know by then what side and rides they want.  Just seems the logical thing to me given the holidays and all.

If that is the consensus, I can just as easily set up the sides and send out the Frame Objectives on the evening of Friday December 30.  I had thought to avoid putting work on anyone's plate over the New Year's Eve weekend, but if you folks would rather have the info on that Friday, I can certainly do that.   :salute

I don't know from consensus around here  ;).

Thanks for your consideration, sir.

But Kuya will STILL be hung over on Monday morning.

I know for a fact that Kuya does not drink and will not have a hangover.

Registration will close on the evening of Friday, December 30, 2011

At that time the Allied and Axis sides will be determined, C-in-C tasks will be assigned, and objectives (which are already in the write-up on the AHEvents site ) will be sent.
