I got an PM from Warship_Salami asking me / us and all the other squads if we are going to participate in the SNL (Saturday Night League.).

Here is the PM in its entirety:

SNL TIME

Hello all

Time for SNL, the Ships will be hosting the event this time around. As you know this fun event with drinking and flying Smile

all the details can be found here http://snl.thewarships.com/news.php

Like to start May 31st so sign up asap. Combine teams are welcome and also guest pilots. Remember if having guest pilots they need to be listed at the SNL site.

Looking foward to another great SNL

Sal

Now what I need to know is WHO IS IN and WHO IS NOT? Are we going to participate or not? DO I need to got recruit pilots from other squads to fly with us??

I need to know by the end of this weekend.

PS, It's sad that I even have to ask questions like these isn't it? I guess when you lead such a lack sidle group you have to ask to avoid embarrassment anyway you can. It's a real shame!

I can make it to any matches I say I will attend. I have 1 question though.
Tags:
In order of fairness, i believe that the tags should be identifiable from one and another. E.G WS 00, WS 000 WS 000 will not be allowed. However [Warships]1, [Warships]2 will be.

As longa as the tags are listed on the CLP and can be easily told apart, the tag is fine.
The examples given as legal tags go against what was previously stated. It says the tag must be Identifiable but the maximum number of letters shown I believe is only 10 and this one is 11, with the specific character being left out. So that means we will only see a bunch of [WARSHIPS] and only when they are hit is when we know who is who. So if I was to dive on one of these [WARSHIPS] and injure one, telling the team that I hit [WARSHIP]1 would be useless because all you will see is [WARSHIPS] in the air meaning you must make a guess and hope its right. I think you should ask them about this JoKeR.

Jonny.

Warships was one of the squads that started the anonymous tag flying. Remember that this is not a Community sponsored league. Its is being sponsored by Warships. This is also why we have our tail number tags. If they want us to guess who they are, they can guess who we are.

only 1 problem with [bLKSHEEP] tag, how will WE know who EACH OTHER r??

Im sure they will have the same problem with communication ( on TS as well ), sure we wont know who they r, but if u hit some1 ur wingman SHOULD be there to finish the job. Also, if we were using [bLKSHEEP] tags we wouldn't know who we r so we couldn't help each other, save each other or wing up together.

i think which ever is easiest...# or name tags.

_Hollywood, do you remember the Tail Number Tag???? BSS_44 Does that look familiar??

BryZ_ You know, I tried a long time ago to get everyone to study everyones in the squad tail numbers

I printed a list my squads numbers and before matches I go a print out the opposing squads tags too and tape them to the front of my PC.

Pretty simple when you think about it.
