yeah i getchu, my only criteria for CPT tho is to play CIC roles and be known for them and not to be a mega retard, thats all
you've cleared not being a mega retard, i just don't see you as CIC roles so i can't tell your skill at them
its one thing to be a good PFC / Medic / Engi, its another to know the flow of combat as both a SL and a CPT; one knows everything he see's, the other knows everything they hear from their SL's, SO's, XO', Tac Map, and occasionally consoles and makes decisions based on this information, which is why my ideal CPT's play CIC roles often enough to know how to use limited information to make the best decisions you can make at the time
