coalition outnumbers alliance 2 to 1 on sfc2.net ...

17 C - 12 A... ;D
How many times will this be debated before a server even starts...?
Do we have a firm start date?...map?...any idea of how the campaign will even work other than the races...?
I asked to have the forums set up the day Dizzy made his announcement. made some posts, sent pms, etc.
Some early birds signed up...
It's not who signs up in the forums that will even matter...it's who shows up and puts time in that makes the difference.
I think it's a wee bit early to start worrying about numbers on the server based on who joined the forums anyway.
Let peeps sign up with who they WANT for a change, rather than saying, you should fly for us because we have the least in the forums... ;)
I'm sure they'll be plenty of time for asking for volunteers to change if there turns out to really be a huge numbers imbalance.

Perhaps someone could post in the FPF and SSCF forums and let them know.

only 3 to 4 fpf active pilots around and 3 have said that they will play, with 2 saying they want to fly coalition.........

Actually that was my intention too... :P  I'll switch back if the numbers need balancing, no problem.

I'm going to try my hand at flying Hydran.. that is if I can keep Vista stable enough on the server kit.. it really needs a rework to open more channels for networking.

Once the players that have posted here are added to the appropriate forums, it'll be interesting how the numbers will continue to not be exact, but still decently close to make it a good campaign.  ;)
I mean it's not like it's 45 to 10 or something.

Alliance. I will pull an allnighter or two, but I am a lot busier now so a total of about 20 hours per week.

Prolly launch the test server in a week to two weeks. Test for a week and then go live.

I definitely plan to play.  (For the first time in ages!)

I still haven't decided which side I'll play for.

I'll make sure to tell Krueg that any expeditionary allied task forces from Rom or Fed space will be subject to a significant pp cost for the player who gets them. :flame:

Oh come on, I flew nutter on Klingon Civil war.   If I can spend 3 weeks in a D7W you can spend 2 on one of those "other" races.
