Yeah, I find the charter thing sort of silly. I mean, you aren't going to get very far in a Free Company of just you... There are already ways to 'build up' your FC to earn points/ranks... so the requirement to even have 3 people present is just a time sink. The FC is really for my Coil static more than anything... and we all have very different schedules. We usually don't get to run until 1am EST, so coordinating people being online to make the FC is going to be hard.
