i think that is the biggest thing but as fall comes and the summer rush slows down we will probably going to gain some n00bs hopfully. @Hardheaded i think the reason the requirements have been waved so much on bum is because we all know each other from our original home but since we are now estiblished here i think in up coming events that may change since we have trader feedback now.

If that is the case and the requirements would keep new members from participating, by all means have a Noob SS again. We don't want to discourage participation, but at the same time don't want to expose every one to the risks of a new member not holding up their end. I don't think we had any issues last year with the Noob SS and that was open to everyone.
Yeah Last year you had to sign up as Noob or Vet. Noobs Bombed Vets and Vets Bombed Noobs. Really only had 1 that got a little sketchy for a bit I believe but he still came through. I'll see how it shakes out come fall. I don't mind running both as there's really not that much work involved.
