Hmm.. I mentioned in the Mayorial thread that I would be willing to ranger, and the offer still stands.
I'm a little concerned that the ranger terms are all ending in a clump, in mid February. It might be better to stagger the terms. You could start to get on that schedule, by hiring 4 new rangers in mid Feburary, but have two of them with two month terms, and the other two with the usual three month terms. Then hire one or two more in March when spaces open up, for three month terms. Thereafter, all terms would be three months. Then you'd have 6 slots filled this way:
Two on this schedule: mid Feb - mid April (2 mo), mid April - mid July, mid July - mid Oct, etc.
Two on this schedule: mid Feb - mid May (3 mo), mid May - mid Aug, mid Aug - mid Nov, etc.
Two on this schedule: mid Mar - mid June (3 mo), mid June - mid Sept, mid Sept - mid Dec, etc.
Which would work out perfectly, until it all came crashing down for some reason.
