5 Hours per week

I was reading the joining rules, and saw that it said you needed to give 5 hours per week. What does this exactly mean?

Also do you all have a set day or days when you get together and train on tactics? And is this a mandatory training?

Or do you just train together when you have 2 or 3 people online.

It just means we consider approximately 5 hours to be the minimum you should spend per week, either in our servers or performing some other [SAS]-related task.

For you it will pretty much mean time spent in our servers. People who spend less than that tend to either not get noticed, or be seen as not committed enough. So if you are hoping to join, you need to get in there and be seen.

and to comment on the trainings its usually when there are yes 3 or more memebers online or even one if nonmembers want training. no training is mandatory, but in order to go certain places you have to get certain trainings. there are at present no regularly scheduled trainings, but they have been done in the past.

Here's something i have learned about this server in particular.

If it empty, most likely no-one will join it. Once one player (especially an SAS member) joins the server begins to hot up. Sometimes i will play on the training ground for about half an hour by myself before another player joins. Our server is very well known and if it is busy it will draw a large amount of players. Basically join it even if it is empty, you will be surprised how quickly the number of players goes up.

On the other hand if you take training seriously and have been granted the friends password (I believe you have Snipe) you could request training with a member. While this doesn't guarantee someone will be online to play with you, it increases the chances that someone will be able to train on the server with you especially if you request one day in advance.

XFire is good way of hassling people until they give into what you want to do Blum 3 :laugh:

(BTW Spidey does regular Sunday training, just check the calender for the times.)
