Militia Thursdays
Level cap for this week was 16. I'm at 13 at the moment with Hawkshaw.
As for teams tonight, I'll see if for this week, I'll try and organise them if Battleflag won't be there, and get an even spread of the levels between the teams, so that lower players can get a Sidekick.
Seeing as there is a sort-of base, do people want to meet in there, or meet in the usual place? I'd say get there for 7.00pm, and depart for misisons at 7.30.
Anyone who's late can obviously be added to a team as and when they arrive.
Apologies for the double-post, but felt this might get lost if people had already read the previous post:
The SG Base is ready for RP use, just-abouts, I'm open to ideas for decor and things that people want to be in there.
It has *no* actual function at the moment, as and when it does gain game-affecting abilities, I'll let you know.
Aww shame to see ya leaving Battleflag. Thanks again for bringing about the Militia. It's awesome.
Hope to see you back here soon, you hear!
Well whatdya know.. Leygran's back and so is 'Dragonfly
Force Commander sounds good for leader.. if he wants.
Sabrina on the other hand wud lead us all into prison.
I always have suggestions for base designing Maxy, hope you dont mind if I criticize when I see it?
Force Commander is happy to be IC leader. Probably suits his background / AT / IC persona pretty well.
Id suggest a few "Leiutenants" aswell...
(Un)fortunately im going on holiday tommorow for 1 week, and having a slap up meal with the Mrs tonight to celebrate kicking work in the proverbial jubblies, so please excuse me for two weeks but
I see most people are in broad agreement with my suggestions about improving "flow" of the evening. Perhaps lets adhere to these principles from now on.
Very sorry to see Battleflag go - hope to see you some time in the future!
Its been great so far tbh. I noticed a bit of a "dip" last time because things seemed uncoordinated and we ended up doing a hunt. I hope we learn from those frustrations. Its all kind of new.
Good luck folks, hope to see you in two weeks time. As I said, FC is happy to be IC "leader" but perhaps need two or three IC "deputies" when Im absent.
Id suggest shuffling titles is SG a bit to reflect this. However, I would suggest the SG is diplomatic, and that there is no OOC heirachy, and all "titles" in the SG have equal permissions to reflect this. Only my suggestion of course.
At the moment, I see the different permissions as useful, as some people will want to do things like, say today's running topic, base-editing, others will not, and be happy without the permission to do so.
I'm reluctant about the idea of giving all members all permissions, just in case in the future we pick up anyone who ends up being trouble, and has the permissions to change things in a not-very-helpful way.
Just my two inf, but we'll see how everybody feels about it.
EDIT: Seeing as we have a spiffy new base, shall we use it for tonight's meet-up?
I think meeting up in the base is fine although I think one or two of us should go to the usual place to meet anyone who wants to join and/or is not in the SG yet therefore can't get to the base. I volunteer to go stand near Stargazer from about 7 but may pop into the base just to see how it looks.
I have no idea how to go about designing bases so I'm quite happy to leave it in other people's hands, I'm sure it will be great.
Dragonfly as leader? (shudder! no offence, could be interesting) I guess we'll see who turns up and delegate as appropriate. See you all soon.

I won't be able to be there tonight. Still stuck at work.
Sorry all, but my PC just literally caught fire and died (I hope it's not due to I7 overload). I have never seen anything like it!
I am typing this from my parents' PC with no COH.
I am ordering a new PC straight away, but unfortunately this means that I will be out of the game for some days.
Good luck to you all and hope to be back soon
Ouch that sounds bad, hope you didn't get hurt or something. Good luck on finding a new comp.
Blimey! Hope you're ok.

Thanks for your concern, and no injuries, just a lot of smoke and unpleasant "sizzling" noises.
I just ordered a new PC online - hopefully this one in better shape to handle I7.
Stupid thing is, I actually have downloaded COH and COV on this PC, but each time I try to log-on, it says that the log-in server is unavailable - has done so ever since I loaded the games onto this PC - I will check with support, hopefully I can use this one as a spare until my own is fixed.
Maybe some ports are blocked or something, checked the firewalls?
Ah...I am so technically incompetent - I don't know how to do that - I will see if my dad can help - thanks for the suggestion
Dutch/Extrisity - you are a genius!
I just disabled the firewall, and now I can log on!
Now I just need to explain the disabling to my dad! I wonder if there is any special feature that has to be permitted - i.e. is it the whole firewall that has to be disabled or can some compromise be made??
Sorry for (ab)using you for technical suppert!
Ah the pride I feel in the strength of purpose of THE MILITIA!!!!!
Battleflag
Sorry about tonight, i work in a bar and i got called in at the last moment! i hate working work cup matches at night!
I am the supreme noob, no doubt about that!
However, good news is that I may be able to get over the problems on my dad's PC by editing the firewall settings, so I may be back in action soon.
Also, I just ordered a new "super"-PC for myself which will de delivered in 7-10 days, so please don't count Masked Angel out of the action yet

Why thank you, I should place this in my sig , as many people seem to do
I'm just repeating a sollution, to what seemed a common problem. Just allow the firewall to accept CoX as an trusted port. I don't know the specifics, cause I don't know what firewall you are using but you'll (or your dad) will figure it out. Good luck on that.
Reduced numbers? Burning PCs? Bah, nothing can stop us!
Last night was a blast, thanks everyone. Plus also, the base looks great.

((I've been having internet issues for the last three or four days If you've been wondering where I've been. I don't know when it's gonna be fixed but I'll log on and post here again as soon as I'm good to go. I hope you had fun thursday and maybe I can team up with someone to catch up on some leveling. I haven't read all the latest 40 posts that has been posted in this thread since my ISP f***d up but as soon as I'm back online and can read it in peace and quiet I will.
See you soon (I hope)
Happy hunting!

I believe the level cap was set at 16 for today, but when I checked the Sg-list yesterday, there were some 15s and 14s and some still at 9 and 10, so the range seems to stand around 10-15
