I remember a time when it was 600 and you had to fight to get into the MA.  SUPER FUN, park a carrier right off the end of enemy runway and is was TURN AND BURN BABY.  Fun times.  Loved sneaking into a airfield that was deacked, VH down, and I would seat at the end of the runway with my M16.  Club blind baby seals- :lol

If all the guys that said they would come back if the numbers increased, would just come back, we would have 400 plus on Friday's without the increase that Steam will bring.  Lead the way Chewie.  <S>

What's a realistic expectation with steam?  100 new players?  500?  1,000???

Yeah, this is truth.

I was reading some statements like that in the Scenario Forum. Somebody mentioned that because the scenarios couldn't break 80 pilots, they wouldn't participate in them. Sad.
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!

That's pretty funny since the upcoming scenario easily broke 80 pilots.  I guess we should expect them there.
