Yes, If you have one of these:

I'll send you a cocktail of your choice via the interwebs.

2 parts Vodka
2 parts hypnotic
1 part blue curacao
1 part cherry Canada dry
1 healthy squize of lemon.

You're welcome.

Thanks! You wouldn't happen to know how to make a man's drink as well?

Here's one: All parts Scotch (aged 16+years)

How does one work out if they are a vet or newb in this scenario?

Also, if the timezones work out I'd be up for it.

It doesn't really matter, just show up and play.

This one is 10^9 better:


And you ought to change your vote and come play. We are men of action, salt does not become us. Damn! It's like she is just pushing 26 or so of my buttons. What a wonderful world we live in!

I'd love to join you guys but July 17 9pm EST is a Wednesday morning for me. I doubt I can make it but hopefully you'll do this again on weekends or something. Take care and have fun in the meantime.

[ccrider]

This sounds pretty fun. I'll try to get some of my guys on and join ya'll. We can teach people the joy of Onion rushes. Pop on by rodcbr1.teamspeak3.com the 17th and let us know when you begin.

Yay I can show people how to shoot yer butt! <3

So you guys are starting at 9pm EST....how long will you be online? Might give it a try - have played some FP games in the past but mostly scouting for events - and its been quite a while at that.

[Azhrael]

Tnx for the offer, im totally grabbing it. I hope i can make it home in time to join. I had some FP experience with the SA but it was like 2 years ago, so im coming as a complete newb lol.

[OldSchoolCav]

Thanks all. There appears to be enough interest to guarantee that we do this again soon - so no worries if you can't make this one. Next time will probably be early afternoon on a weekend so we can bring in some EU players. See you all in 2 days.

[Yondu Udonta]

I'll be there, hopefully I can wake up for it

[OldSchoolCav]

I'll be on TeamSpeak around 9 Eastern (UTC-5). Again, the Mercstar TeamSpeak is mercstar.teamspeak3.com. No password is required. If other units want to participate - unit leaders, please drop by MS comms so we can coordinate and we can push solo players your way. New players, hop in LFG and come to MS comms and we'll direct you to the right place. See you all tonight.

50+ people atm

[OldSchoolCav]

To all those who just got booted form the TS server, someone meant to increse the cap by 25 and decreased it 25 on accident. Come on back, we are still playing.

[OldSchoolCav]

Thanks to all who showed up! We had 4 or 5 12-mans playing simultaneously, so many that we had to increase the cap on our TS server from 50 to 75. Add in the 2 or 3 other 12-mans out tonight, this felt a bit like the old days. Given the turnout, I think this might become a weekly thing. In any case, everyone who dropped was assigned permanent guest tags on our TS and you all are welcome to drop with us again at any time. It was pretty amazing to get 6 FP drops in 3.5 hours. Thanks again!

[50 50]

Congrats and well done.
Keep it up.

This is the reason why the recruiting fee needs to be removed to revive FP. Units are hubs and multipliers. Yes, we have to deal with the matthew effect, but overall it will benefit the community. I had to pay more than 500.000.000 for people who accidentially left during faction related events or bad design of the UI, until I was done and let the unit shrink from 250 to 130. Establish a maximum for the unit size if you have to, but after a while no one is willing to constantly pay for recruitment ..
