Squad forming! Exciting new opportunity!
« on: September 24, 2022, 05:38:10 PM »
There's a chance for some of you to get in on the ground floor during the ramp up and deployment of a new squadron in Aces High.

"The Watched" will be a strictly regimented and disciplined unit comprised of crack pilots and officers. The Watched will take wing and begin official operations soon.

The last unit I was involved with was the Elite Top Aces Plus One Mexican. We were all generals and we ran a tight ship. This time will be much the same. I will be taking requests here and in game.

You will need to provide computer specs, estimated flight hours in game and you must have a K/D ratio of over 9/1. You will also be required to provide the login information to all of your social media accounts so that we can perform a background check - and maybe make a few posts under your name now and then, as determined or required by squad ops.

So good luck!

This is outrageous!  I'm shocked and offended!  Could I get a courtesy trigger warning in the title, for crying out loud??

okay, recruits!

I am connecting my flight apparatuses and will be entering theater shortly. I'll probably warm up with just a 15 to 1 kill ratio for now.

Also, you need three references from reputable squads, and verified 15 years hard experience just to secure an initial interview and background check.   :salute

This isn't a squad for ham and eggers and red necks who need to step it up a notch.

Lol. Yes!

And you have to send it a picture of you wearing your uniform. We always fly in uniform!

I am in game! Or in the theater of operations as we say

Well, I've been in theater for over an hour. Maybe more. It doesn't seem that anyone is lining up to join the squad. So I'm going to offer an incentive.
For new recruits you will not have to wear your uniform on Tuesdays if you join today.

It would seem there are still "supply chain issues" with fit-of-age fighting men.  A sorry state of affairs indeed.

I have to admit that today was a bloody day in the arena. I was killed more than I killed, but this is a virtual engagement. I'm still actually very awesome and will have a 16:1 kill ratio whenever I decide such. This was only a special operation.

So I hope new recruits will not look at my virtual performance and apply that to my real potential.

I did come home with a couple of washing machines.

I recommend that The Watched fly in the October Scenario "Operation Husky".

It's what a top squad would do!  :aok

Back when I flew more in the MA, there was a guy on Elite Top Aces Plus One Mexican who was the one Mexican and who I used to fight from time to time.  He was quite good.  I'm trying to remember the name.  Was it cmex?

NAH!  Think it was AKAK, at least his Avatar was a Mexican in Officer's Uniform.   2CMEX was Anti-Hoard in 2013 when I started. I think? 9 YEARS AGO? Holy Crap...now dont that explain some recent issues? OLD AS F, I am :rofl

On this board for over 20 years and never knew my watched status until 6 months ago...

Not sure if its new on this bbs but it's interesting to watch it go up and down based on someones interpretation of what you post..
