    Hogger: locomotive engineer

    Car Knocker: Railroad car repair-person or car inspector

    Hack: A caboose

    So I would suggest hogging, knocking, or hacking trains

    look up railway terms there are other good ones also.

    The flight crew ranking needed to be weighted. In Clash of Clans (COC), the top 10 in a clan of 50 provide 50% of the ranking, the next 10, 25% and so on.

    The ability to have in-game chat makes a difference too. We talk more in COC, than we do on the forums.

    Limit the size of the crew - the whole open ended, have as many as you like type crews make it unwieldy and as we've seen in PPs, with the TA crew, they win just by the sheer number of players. Limit the crew to 50-100.

    Have the ability to help others, like we can send the parts, to anyone in your crew, not just the top 100 in your Game Center account.

    As for what we would say instaed of flinging planes, my guess...pushing trains.

    That was really amazing! I could see our small part of the world in the night fly-over the East coast of the United States. Loved seeing a different perspective on the "Northern Lights." Thanks for sharing!

    Hey sp...its july. ;)

    Welcome zoo!

    I think Merlion is on strike. Let us say he probably feels under appreciated. I bet he is lurking though and would come back with some gratitude from the group for all of his hard work.

    I miss Merlion. Hopefully he is merely enjoying a long vacation and will return soon.

    I see you and Max Headroom are one month ahead of the rest of the world.

    I took a break from PP yesterday, had to spend some quality time with Mafia Wars. Just flung some planes this morning. It helps when I'm sitting at Starbucks with no computer to suck me back into MW. ;)

    WOW! Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Icon!

    Could someone remind me what the duration is for the Silver Yoke and Golden Sequoia? Was it x number of events or y number of months or... ?

    Interesting. How well does the in-game chat work in Clash of Clans on an itty bitty phone screen? I don't even like typing forum messages on the phone (as I'm doing right now).

    Not sure why I put August. It's clearly July..

    The Silver Yoke is a monthly cup and the Golden Seqouia is a quarterly 3 month cup.
