Me on the boat with both the boat and pilots now exercising EMCON with polished ease after a few gulp moments at the start. Rotation of guys from the mainland to achieve various boat ticks. Boat and FlyCo continue with an iron-clad EMCON in rather average conditions. The #2 decides that enough was enough and that his formation leader had done all he could. Still no help from the boat so broadcasts "This game of hide and seek is over!". FlyCo replies a with a terse invite to his office on landing; #2 replies inviting the FlyCo to his bigger office if he made it aboard. Slight pause on the radio before the formation leader broadcast a simple "paper, scissors, rank" prompt.

To me the accent on the radio from #2 would have overcome the fly pro change. Is he a 3 star now?
