What you're describing isn't a sim, it's a gaming session. I play it for the historic feel, not so I can 'partaaaaaayyyyy'.

Considering the fact that "enemy waters" is much f the pacific, no TC is asking for the first guy to play, and all the others watching him all night (and very likely not making any contacts.

Face it, but the time you are about as far west as, say, Wake, you are in "enemy waters."

On the surface at 10-15 knots at 1:1, it will be dawn and the action will likely consist of diving because of a plane, then hours at maybe 2 knots.

My suggestion might be no TC once contact is made.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude or superior. I just try to avoid socializing these days.
