petition to change the twelfth bay to the 12th bay. twelfth looks silly.
Why should we consider the opinion of someone who doesn't bother to capitalize the first letters of his sentences?
I happen to agree with him that "The Twelfth Bay" looks silly. I'd far prefer B12 or Bay12

Because not everybody had a misfortune to be born in USA.
Shouldn't that be "The (mis)fortune to be born..."?

Why are you feeding the quote pyramid without actually contributing anything useful to the thread?

I could ask you the same question.

Then come on and ask it, so I can repeat the same accusation.

Sorry, I forgot I shouldn't perpetuate arguments with the immature.

I'll stop now.

Admit it, you just ran out of arguments.

Also, before calling someone immature consider that your nickname lacks a capital letter and has numbers. Weakling.

Edit: On a more serious note, it appears that it is possible to join Steam groups without actually installing the godforsaken abhorrent monstrosity that is Steam. Well, maybe I'll be able to tolerate it for a while.

Edit 2: Oh hey, moving to a different page logged me out, together with a 'Access from a new computer' confirmation e-mail. And it is stuck on logging in with the new code. Looks like the 'while' lasted for a grand total of two minutes. Yay, I guess.

Good lord, you're like one of those old people who refuse to use cell phones. "Oh I don't need any of that newfangled stuff, the phone in my house was good enough for my father and it's good enough for me." :P

I actually lost my cell and never replaced it. Does that make me old?

Anyhow, on the game: I'd like to give commanding a shot, but don't know if I'll be any good at it. If there's too many people who want to command, we'd best set up a roster on who gets to go when or something. That way we all have a shot at proving our excellence :)

Just split it into squad leaders, instead of having one boss directing everything.  Then you solve the command debate, and don't cripple yourself when the boss isn't online :)

Multiple commanders are the solution. Take the best strategists and the most famoust B12ers and give them a high status. People listen to what Girlinhat and Loud Whispers say, and most people would follow even a madman as long as he lead them to victory.

I ran out of motivation for arguing with you. It wasn't even an argument really, you were just pointing out minor typos and declaring that they were grounds for deciding someone's opinion was invalid. I thought you were trying to be funny, so I replied in kind. Then I realized you were serious, and I decided not to continue because the whole thing was stupid.

You can continue feeling smugly superior though, I'm okay with that.

How many people do we actually have here though? Do we have enough to fill multiple squads? Has anyone taken a comprehensive head count?

Well, probably a few good ones will emerge, but that might result in only those with "command ranks" actually getting command, where a new, good commander wouldn't get any airtime (This situation arose in one of my previous outfits). Having a command structure (someone commanding the commanders) is probably what they'll be going for, given the size of this thing, so that'd be even better. Being a good commander also means being able to follow orders :)

Remeber that the Unit is essentially a Clan. Whereas Squads/Platoons are the actually active grouping mechanizms. Squads are up to 10 players, and I'm assuming Platoons are a group of squads. So if we wanted to be super structured, we could make a chain of command Unit-wide, with the highest ranking members online at any time leading squads. Or, just whoever starts the squad leads it that day.
