I'm not sure as ussual if I can make it, but I'll try, so I do not want to make any promises or commitments as a pilot or a gunner(never been a gunner before!, had one before as a trial!) but if I can make it however who ever is going to be my gunner he/she better not be prone to motion sickness!.........

:P:P:P:P:P

If I can make it, count me in.

I already have a partner. lol Kat and I will try to make it.

SeeJay, I would be happy to be your gunner unless you get a better offer!

I'm in. Another IM pilot as partner if one is available. If I can't find a partner, I'll stick around anyway just to read the crosstalk between Cindy and Kat.

I'm a willing gunner. Or, since there appears to be more gunners than pilots, I would try my role at that if needed. I'm not very seasoned but hey....dash on a lil salt, dip me in ketchup (or mayonnaise for my European friends, so so nasty) and I'll give it a go.

A carniverous rubber chicken? I would have been even more respectful of your familiy if I had but known!

The Golden Capitol city of our homeworld, Cluck Vegas, happens to have legendary steak dinners!
You didn't seriously think we could let the Cows become the dominant species on our planet did you?

We have a saying where I come from - "Sometimes you eat the fox, sometimes the fox eats you!"

Twilly Frost · Post by **Twilly Frost** » Sat Jan 07, 2012 9:47 pm

I would pay good coin to see a chicken eat a fox. That would be an astonishing sight. Nom nom nom.

You want me as gunner or pilot?

Maybe the rules can even allow for a turnation of roles between the two members of the team.

I read a report in a (reputable) newspaper a couple of months ago about a fox that had managed to get into a very large chicken shed. The birds went berserk and mobbed the fox. The farmer found it dead the next morning - hen pecked!

For the more down to earth northerner of the UK, it's Salad Cream - mayonnaise if for the effete southerners

Excellent idea for teams where both players ae equal ability - otherwise it would be wiser to let the better player pilot - the team would last longer!

You see how instead of being a Chicken and using FLock or Flight Formation tactics Cooperation can change the outcome!(Actually Chickens do not fly unless you are made from rubber).....

Actually, if you consider the size of a chicken relative to the size of the first plane flown by the Wright Brothers, the chicken can fly further ... relatively speaking.

Time set for 5pm EST

Post by **Marvin** » Thu Jan 12, 2012 7:28 pm

Is that a time change? If it isn't, I haven't been paying attention. Either way, I've lost my turret gunner (or taxi driver).

Is 5:00pm EST = 10:00pm UCT/GMT/UK time?

If so, SeeJay . . .

Do you trust me as your gunner?
Can you make that time?

SeeJay · Post by **SeeJay** » Thu Jan 12, 2012 9:04 pm

@DaveK

I'll do my best. Shouldn't be any problems.

I'll be honored if you'd be my gunner.
