ArtCat, I love the fact that your mind works about the same as mine...way too many ideas at once! You are just a bit more articulate about getting them down in type.
I am not so sure about the name tags on the uniforms...I mean as far as real names go. It would be shiny to have our screen names on them, though.

I do think we would all come from the same planet...had not really thought about that, but it makes a lot of sense.

Looks like the scarf thing is going to be a hot topic. Let's give it a day or two of opinions, then we can decide from there.

ArtCat, a Quantum replica?!? Ooh, shiny! I want one of those...
Not that it makes too much of a difference, but that pistol is the one from the BDM, and it has some slight differences from the series pistol...but is it so very shiny-looking! *envy*

There are a shit-ton of sites out there that offer military nametapes for like $3.00. And most Army/Navy surplus stores make them too. If we have them made either online or at a surplus store we will all at least know where uniform.

I completely understand. Would you be oppsed to giving your hometown at least?


Oh, and big update to the site. Check out the kickass little mapping program I found. Tristan, you of all people I know will love it. Firefox is still not displaying ANY of the updates I've made, though the other browsers are. Tell me what you think. Oh, and remember ranks don't matter/aren't decided yet. I put people in categories based on where I felt they should be based on contributions I'm aware of. It was just for form.

I'd like to also go ahead and nominate BWTP as XO of the 76th. It appears that I am a Colonel (whee!). I'd also like to nominate ArtCat and RIMG for something...I am just not sure what! I did see the ranks you posted before, BWTP, but my ignorance is far-reaching...

That's something I didn't even think of. Who says we have to have our real names? If you guys want to create a 'screen name' go ahead and give that to me, then the Callsign will be your handle on here. Sound good?

I'm truly flattered Tristan, thanks for that.

Of course, that's what a Bn CO is either a Lt. Colonal or a full bird.

I have them down as NCO's for the moment, actual rank can be voted on/decided whenever. I say we pose a question to the both of them before we nominate. Do they want to be NCO's or officers?

Second!

Using my SN on here is fine with me, and if it doesn't fit, I can just make up one.

Officer/NCO doesn't matter to me, I just plan on being the best damn medic I can. Something that sounds cool I suppose

BWTP, you seem to know more about what's going on than I do...it only seems right!

As for RIMG and ArtCat, good point.

Ok, so, RIMG and ArtCat....what do y'all want to be?

Some kind of sergeant would be fine with me. I am really not picky.

LOl No clue, right now I think I count as a supplies officer, though I can help out wherever its needed.

Locally I am the CoCaptain of the Houston Browncoats, I have no clue about ranks for some reason it goes in one ear and out the other (my best friend is in the Navy shame on me for not knowing).


oh and for the website as you can see above I am a Houston, TX gal

my email is artcat81 AT gmail.com

Browncoats are the shiniest folks in the 'verse

RIMG, how about Sergeant First Class/Medic?

ArtCat, would the same work for you, rank-wise, with Logistics as your MO?
