1st RESET EXECUTED, NEXT RESET JULY 8th}Ultra Competitive/Realistic world

[East West Airlines]

WHO IS DELTA AIRLINES AND WHY ARE THEY IN MY HUB!? DO THEY REALIZE NOT ONLY IS IT ILLEGAL TO HAVE DELA AIRLINES AS A NAME BUT ALSO THAT THEY ARE IN MY HUB. Dobbins please, this is a pretty good reason to get them out of here. Not that I care about the whole hub thing because I could switch it up and go LAX but having the name Delta is illegal.

Thank you

Wooooowww... Ok seriously, If I'd known there were gonna be 3 airlines based in Atlanta before this world even started, I would have based somewhere else... do what you want, I'm about to own you all! Let the competition begin! Safe flying!

Now that we have started I did the math to see what the scores would be like and I actually like the scoring system a lot (not just because I am in first  ) It really makes being at a large airport not an automatic win which is nice for a change.

CaribbeanBlue 34.44
Brussels Airlines 15.25
British European Airlines 15.07
Australia Blue 11.79
Anandha Airlines 8.98
Locust Air 5.29
Jetway International 4.89
UniteContinental 4.55
Royal Atlantic Airways 4.28

THE FIRST RESET WILL BE PERFORMED ON JUNE 28TH!  MAKE SURE YOUR NUMBERS ARE UP.  Since one of the rules is that no one will be reset within the first year, so there will be no reset on June 22nd.

I see a potential problem already.  Whoever is Brussels Airlines, you need to get some routes going.  We can't have someone in this game who just joins and then never does anything.  It kind of ruins the point.  If on June 28th there is anyone in the game with no PAX being carried, then they will be reset along with the next lowest person.

I hae just created the SkyConnect alliance as I said I was going to, If you previously showed interest in joining (Dobbins, Bindu, GPwestjet, and matias I think were the ones) feel free to join at any time.

[Dobbins]

Eastwest, I have applied, please vote on my application.  Thanks!

[Dobbins]

Thank you!

I was wondering if anyone was going to try and hub at a po-dunk little airport like Minot.  Looks like Seychelles won out.  Not a bad stradegy at first, but it definitely limits airline value growth.  The playing field should level for the bigger guys, given time.

Good luck to the three of you in Atlanta, your going to need it.

This is so ridiculous... If I'd known 3 people were going to hub in Atlanta right off the bat I would have switched it up and hubbed in Orlando, or Minneapolis... in this scenario I think it will be wise to fly to a lot of those smaller airports... Best of luck to everyone!

[Dobbins]

I can reset you now if you would like to change hubs.  The world is only a couple of days in.  Also, should you lose a round and be reset, send me a message if you want to change hubs.  In all seriousness, though, it looks like you are doing just fine.  You're the top airline in Atlanta and it really doesn't look like you are at any risk of losing anytime soon.
