Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Apologies for not having a more active part in the discussion, but real life keeps me away from the keyboard. We, the staff, are having a private discussion, and while it started out pretty much the same as this one, we are getting somewhere. Locitus hired some thugs locally to rough me up with a notched kidney plate. The long international arm of the DL should not be underestimated. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-4510[TK] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Actually I provided pictures of my CAP armor AND my molds and exhaustively answered questions regarding the MTK armor origins.......Anyway,...I am no longer concerned if I am "vetted" or not so.....no worries. All I got is love! Let's get back to the subject before this turns into what it probably will without admin intervention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I have asked the LMO to move this up to a Centurion requirement, and that the size is changed to 22x22 mm (Mike, you might want to change to 22x24 mm on the right hand size for added accuracy).

TK-4510[TK] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I made the height 22mm but the width is over 30mm for the....um....bigger trooper. They can trim to size if need be... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally Mathias, I think it was probably best for your personal sanity that you handled this in private staff discussions, as opposed to staying more active in this particular thread. Just a casual "thinking out loud" sort of moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark PWF[Staff] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 LoL... True enough - it also keeps the community at large at bay so the discussion can actually progress. Personally, I think that the resolution (although one that will definitely slow my personal level progression down) is the right one and fair with regards to the level of the requirement. Thank you for taking a look at it with the staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iconoclasta_88[TK] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Cool... This is great and makes sense the way I understand the detachment programs. Level 2 for the looks, Level 3 for whatever makes it more accurate, could be in or outside. THX. Saludos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxsteele[TK] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Is it an official change now to move the notch requirement to Centurion? Or is it still in discussion with a formal proposal to follow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Aloha[Admin] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Just waiting on the LMO to make the move. It is safe to assume that regardless of what the CRL says, the deployment officer will not be enforcing the notch for EIB. -Eric Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, please edit the first post of this thread to reflect the changes, when you have the time. I recommend the strike for marking the old text obsolete.

And congrats to troopers who are able to express themselves in a proper manner to be heard by the staff. I salute you and bucket off!!!

I'm Batman[501st] Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I bets its going to look super weird in his RT. I also think we can (at least I intend to) make a case for Tim not to do the notch given the timing of his build and the newness of the requirement. We've waived such things in the past for armor that was built right before a CRL change. -Eric So the next question, as Eric mentions in this build thread, is do you make an allowance for people who have already started their builds by a certain date - the introduction date perhaps, that they fall under the old CRL's and don't have to comply with the new change? Something for the detachment staff to discuss with their buckets off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something for the detachment staff to discuss with their buckets off? Here's my take on it. This is what the 1st of Sept was for. As we annouced this change was coming in early August. But if someone would submit their centurion on Sept 2nd, I wouldn't worry about it. But don't count on getting away with not having the notch by the end of September.
