<p>I am laughing as I see this site become smaller and smaller compared to the sister services, so for those who are new are searching the site, do not fear, the AFA community is alive and well. They all just moved the party. To find them they are over at [United</a> States of America Service Academy Forums - Powered by vBulletin](<a href=“http://www.serviceacademyforums.com%5DUnited”>http://www.serviceacademyforums.com)</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve noticed crickets chirping here lately.</p>
<p>How it has changed, 2 yrs ago there would be pages upon pages of threads, now it is non existent, that is why I posted the link in case some poor new candidate comes over and can’t get answers.</p>
<p>i was thinking the same thing, and almost made a post asking what happened. i don’t like SAF, so i’m stickin here to continue the countdown and answer anything i can</p>
<p>Well, this is also part of the dead season for new applicants.<br>
It should pick up in the next month.</p>
<p>very true. they could be seeking the advice of someone on here who said “go out and enjoy the time you have” or something like that. on the same lines though, aren’t many congressional nominations coming up about now?</p>
<p>The application process should be under way with deadlines quickly approaching.</p>
<p>I would think most MOCs have hit their deadlines or are only days away. I also know that LOA’s have gone out, so I suspect the apptmt thread will start real soon.</p>
<p>Yeah, I have also noticed how dead this is. I always read it every few days, but usually the only current thread is the famous countdown</p>
<p>yay for our countdown!!!</p>
<p>Look what page it is on…</p>
<p>Whew… I have missed you all and your pithy comments… <grabbing party=“” hat=“” and=“” moving=“” over=“” to=“” the=“” “other=”" party"=“”>!! Uh… does everyone wearing the same name tag? or is it all new identities? :P</grabbing></p>
<p>SOS, (name that is) just a different day…
Still like this forum best, easy, non-cluttered, good info.</p>
<p>[United</a> States of America Service Academy Forums - Powered by vBulletin](<a href=“http://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php]United”>United States of America Service Academy Forums) – good for second opinions</p>
<p>[USAFA</a> Community](<a href=“http://www.usafacommunity.com/]USAFA”>http://www.usafacommunity.com/) – lots of Helicopter Parents with a lot of “Fluff” (BS) very cluttered, confusing to navigate
Front Page keeps OLD news on it, today (Oct 15th) still shows the WTC being attacked…(Do we really need to see this or be reminded of this???)</p>
<p>I think checkpoints could learn from the countdown, at least there’s something witty or beer quotes.</p>
<p>if i ask you checkpoints, you may include the beer quote of the day. haha</p>
<p>too funny eagle :D:D:D:D:D</p>
<p>Eagle, I must have done something ‘very’ wrong that morning to have you asking me checkpoints.</p>
<p>or i could seek you out to ask just to hear the beer quote! maybe at tomorrow’s game… in FLIGHT SUITS!</p>
<p>eagle enjoy it not because in a few months, you will be the one being picked on ;)</p>
<p>220 days, but who’s counting?</p>
<p>oh wait… we have been on here since 363 ;)</p>
<p>the only time i asked checked points is when we brought Tiger Ten to wing staff for a fun morning minutes session</p>
