| Elf Max | Hi everyone. We’ll be starting the chat with Elf Roger in a few minutes |
| Elf GingerHolly | Awesome! |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Can’t wait! |
| Elf Koby | hi everyone i am elf koby |
| Elf Roger Star | Hello |
| Elf Koby | i feel so happy to be a elf |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hello Roger Star! |
| Elf Max | Hi Elf Roger. Thanks for being here today |
| Elf Roger Star | My pleasure. |
| Elf Koby | hi elf max |
| Elf Koby | hi elf roger |
| Elf Max | Everyone – Elf Roger Star is the International Director of Santa Trackers. He is here today to give us an update of the tracker elf program. |
| Elf Roger Star | Hi Elf Koby |
| Elf Koby | really |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Oh boy! I can’t wait to hear about some of the new things to come! |
| Elf Wayne | hi |
| Elf Max | Roger, before we get started I wanted to ask you about something brought up in the chat with Frank and Crash earlier today |
| Elf Koby | hi elf buddy frost |
| Elf Roger Star | Ok |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hello Elf Koby! |
| Elf Max | Both said they were “shut down” in a visit to Flight Command today. Is something going on there? |
| Elf Roger Star | Not that I’ve heard, no. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | No one is really sure. Everything seems to be hush hush right now |
| Elf Max | Why would flight command basically ignore two senior elves? |
| Elf Roger Star | Is that what they said happened? |
| Elf Koby | elf roger r u in North pole |
| Elf Max | Yes, at least that is how I understood it. |
| Elf Roger Star | Hmmm. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Yeah Elf Frank in the last chat said he had been shut down by them |
| Elf Roger Star | I don’t know of any kind of security holds on information at Flight command right now |
| Elf GingerHolly | Hey Everyone! |
| Elf Max | They both seemed really concerned |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hello Elf Gingerholly! |
| Elf GingerHolly | Hey Elf BuddyFrost! |
| Elf Koby | we must get help from the flight command to make sure everything’s ready on christmas eve if not santa wouldn’t fly and deliver gifts he mostly needs norad santa tracker and the satelites to go around the globe in one night |
| Elf Roger Star | Things are ramping up. But we’re only half way to Christmas. They haven’t even started test flights yet. So there are really no secrets to keep that I know about |
| Elf Max | Did someone just use the N-word??? |
| Elf Koby | hi elf gingerholly |
| Elf Roger Star | Ok Elf Koby…you have much to learn |
| Elf Wayne | Merry half way to Christams |
| Elf Buddy Frost | I may not be a north pole elf yet but I am sure there isn’t anything concerning going on. It may just be a really big project that they want to save as a surprise |
| Elf Max | Yeah, I think a good visit to Elf University would be in order there. |
| Elf GingerHolly | haha uhoh |
| Elf Koby | what you mean i have much to learn elf roger |
| Elf Roger Star | The thing to remember about Frank and Crash is that they are North Pole media. It’s their job to ask questions. |
| Elf Max | Santa doesn’t use **The Santa Tracker That Shall Not Be Named**, Elf Koby. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hm, yes that is true. I suppose we’ll just have to see what time will tell. |
| Elf Max | But Roger, why would they shut them out? Seems…not very nice. |
| Elf Roger Star | I agree. I will see what I can find out. |
| Elf Koby | am i still a elf i dont wanna be kicked out |
| Elf GingerHolly | Maybe flight command was too busy for questions at the moment and they had to say no…???? |
| Elf Max | What can you tell us today what is coming this next month for tracker elves? |
| Elf Roger Star | Yes, Christmas in July is a traditional time of announcements concerning the tracker elf program |
| Elf Roger Star | This year I will be hosting the press conference on July 11th. |
| Elf Koby | elf max am i still a elf i dont wanna be kicked out i love my job |
| Elf Max | Will you be announcing the tracker elf recruitment goal? |
| Elf Roger Star | That will be one of many things discussed, yes. |
| Elf Max | This was talked about a little with Frank and Crash this morning too. Crash said that every year the number has gone up. Do you know if that is true for this year? |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Elf Roger Star, might I ask what else we might expect to be discussed? |
| Elf Koby | elf roger i sent a letter to mrs claus how do i see when she wrote roger? |
| Elf Roger Star | Honestly, no. Santa has not yet discussed a number with me. I’ll be meeting with him several times between now and the 11th. |
| Elf GingerHolly | I’ve heard the numbers went up a lot last year |
| Elf Roger Star | I believe Santa will be wanting to discuss elf training a lot. There are changes to the program that many experienced elves will need to be trained on and new elves will need to go through Elf University, for sure |
| Elf Koby | how do i see what mr’s claus wrote to me elf roger? |
| Elf Roger Star | Sorry, not my department. You’ll have to talk to Elf Hugo Slavia about that. |
| Elf Koby | am i still a elf elf roger? |
| Elf Max | Yes, the number was 200 million last year, which was insane. But we made it. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Well I am very excited. Thank you for answering Roger! |
| Elf GingerHolly | Wow! That’s Amazing! |
| Elf Roger Star | As far as I know. You’re here, aren’t you? |
| Elf Koby | Yes sir |
| Elf Roger Star | I’m not going to lie, Santa and I have talked about some numbers but that was months ago and we have not talked about it since. |
| Elf Max | What is your personal belief? |
| Elf Koby | Yes I am Elf roger |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Somehow, I get the feeling its probably going to be another insane number but we’ll make it for sure! |
| Elf GingerHolly | I wanna guess and say maybe 400million this year??? |
| Elf Roger Star | Elf Koby, please spend some time studying what it means to be an elf. There is a lot of material on this website. Other elves will help you. You have lots of time between now and when Santa flies to learn. |
| Elf Roger Star | My personal belief is that Santa may not give us a number this year. He has told me many times we focus on that number too much. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | If your needing help Elf Koby you can message me anytime! I’d be happy to help a fellow elf! |
| Elf Max | So…not something like 400 million? |
| Elf Koby | how do i message you elf buddy frost |
| Elf Roger Star | I don’t know, honestly. I suppose Santa will tell me for sure just before the press conference. He has repeatedly said he is focusing on quality, not quantity this year with tracker elves |
| Elf Sugar Cookie | I was about to say something similar, Elf Buddy Frost. There are a lot of elves, myself included, who would be happy to help you, Elf Kobe! The Elf Wall and the message options are great resources in addition to Elf University here. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | You can find my profile by searching my name on Santatrackers.net. From there you’ll be able to message me |
| Elf Max | Thank you Elf Sugar Cookie |
| Elf Max | Roger, do you know how Santa felt about 200 million elves last year? |
| Elf Roger Star | Yes, he was very direct with me about that. |
| Elf GingerHolly | So will we see the numbers at all or will we just focus more on quality? |
| Elf Max | What did he say? |
| Elf Koby | elf buddy frost can you send me link to you profile please |
| Elf Roger Star | Santa came away from last year’s flight with mixed emotions. It was a record-breaking flight and it went well. But he was concerned we had so many elves who signed up to be elves but then didn’t help. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Of course Koby! I will at the end of the chat. |
| Elf Roger Star | We will know the goals, no matter what they are. In terms of focus, I think your Elf Supervisor will play a bigger role this year and that elves will be asked to do things earlier – between Thanksgiving and December 23rd. |
| Elf weather tracker | Hi everyone, sorry I am late |
| Elf Koby | elf roger can we be friends |
| Elf Roger Star | Of course! |
| Elf Roger Star | Nice to see you, Elf Weather Tracker |
| Elf GingerHolly | Oh ok thank you Elf Roger! |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hey better late then never! Nice to see you Elf Weather Tracker! |
| Elf Max | What is one piece of advice you would give to any tracker elf signing on for the first time this year? |
| Elf Roger Star | I would say to pay attention. The news will be coming fast in July, then we will enter the recruitment and training period. Then instructions come right after Halloween. |
| Elf Koby | Elf roger can you give me link to you profile? |
| Elf Max | It sounds like the plan calls for things to be more spread out this year – less crammed on December 23rd and 24th |
| Elf Roger Star | https://santatrackers.net/login/members/elfroger/ |
| Elf Sugar Cookie | That sounds like a great plan! |
| Elf Buddy Frost | https://santatrackers.net/login/members/mr-candycanemr |
| Elf Roger Star | Yes, that is true. A lot more going on in early December for trackers. |
| Elf Max | When you say to pay attention – can you be more specific? |
| Elf Buddy Frost | It would be nice for things to be less crammed so we have more time for family matters at Christmas and more time to get reports done |
| Elf Crusader | Hello everyone |
| Elf Roger Star | A tracker elf should be watching three websites in particular – this website, santatrackers.net, because it is for them. Only elves can see the news that breaks here. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Hello Crusader! |
| Elf Koby | hi elf crusader how are you |
| Elf Roger Star | NorthPoleFlightCommand.com is for the whole world but trackers should be tuned in there as well. |
| Elf Crusader | I’m good. Glad I finally found the chat |
| Elf weather tracker | I’m ready to start tracking the weather |
| Elf Koby | elf roger! i sent you an message |
| Elf Roger Star | And, of course, SantaUpdate.com – which is general North Pole News – and is the oldest Santa tracker on the Internet, by the way – is essential for tracker elves too. |
| Elf Roger Star | I believe weather tracking will kick in when they announce the test flight schedule. |
| Elf weather tracker | Right, I have been closely watching the weather, and been keeping up with the tracker news |
| Elf Max | So is the big message today that tracker elves need to attend the press conference on July 11th? |
| Elf GingerHolly | Can we personally watch the test flight or is it just audio recorded live in the flight command? |
| Elf Buddy Frost | What time will that conference be on July 11th? |
| Elf Crusader | Roger, in all honesty; what is Santa’s opinion of my tracking? I know I’ve been doing my best. |
| Elf Koby | where do you go to flight command holly |
| Elf Roger Star | LOL, yeah, I guess so. There is a lot I know that I cannot share today. But in a nutshell, that is when things will be announced, yes. |
| Elf Sugar Cookie | @elfkoby : northpoleflightcommand.com |
| Elf Koby | elf roger star is everything up and running and ready for christmas eve when santa sets off around the globe |
| Elf Roger Star | Test flights are tracked in flight command and I believe some flights will be known in advance for tracker elves. |
| Elf Crusader | I think something big is coming for us trackers. I could be wrong, but my gut usually isn’t wrong |
| Elf Roger Star | With 200 million elves out there, I’m not sure Santa can speak to an opinion of any one in particular, Crusader. I think he’s more focused on the overall effort. You are an outstanding elf, my friend. |
| Elf GingerHolly | Ok Great thank you so much yall are amazin! |
| Elf weather tracker | So will there be a chat for us trackers that are in all sectors for the trackers press conference? |
| Elf Koby | elf roger star is everything up and running and ready for christmas eve when santa sets off around the globe |
| Elf Roger Star | I’ll have to confirm but I think about noon EST. We’ll announce it again a day or two before. |
| Elf Crusader | Thank You Roger and I understand |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Okay, thank you. |
| Elf Roger Star | Yes, we’ve done this for decades. It’s very organized. Watch – you’ll see. |
| Elf Crusader | Is there a need for a podcast or podcasts pertaining to the conference or things in between? |
| Elf Max | We have had many trackers who have seen the test flights when they are over their location. It gets reported all the time. |
| Elf Crusader | I mean, US there anything I or anyone else can do? |
| Elf Koby | when will we see santa’s first test flight? is it likely gonna be in the november month or december cause i know some are in december i am not really sure about november? so when will we see an test flight happen in the north pole flight command |
| Elf Roger Star | There is a live radio event covering the conference, Crusader. I have no doubt there will be a podcast episode or two in the weeks and months thereafter. |
| Elf Crusader | Why are test flight done so early? Is there a need for it? |
| Elf GingerHolly | Awesome thanks Elf Max |
| Elf Roger Star | Test flights will begin in July. That has already been announced. |
| Elf Crusader | Thank You Roger |
| Elf Koby | so ill hear santa fly through my house Elf roger? |
| Elf Crusader | ‘@Elf Koby: probably not |
| Elf Roger Star | I’m not on the test flight team but I was involved in some discussions about this year’s schedule. Santa’s goal every year is to do better than the year before. That means things like design and sleigh performance are important. So they test early to make sure everything is right before Santa flies. |
| Elf Roger Star | Santa does not fly through houses. That would be dangerous and destructive. |
| Elf Crusader | Hmm interesting |
| Elf GingerHolly | All of this talk about Christmas is gettin me so excited yall! |
| Elf Max | Any last questions for Roger? |
| Elf Crusader | You have a lot to learn koby and we are all here to help you! |
| Elf Buddy Frost | I know the feeling Ginger! I’ve been excited for Christmas since last Christmas! |
| Elf Roger Star | Good chat, Max. Will this be archived for those who could not be here? |
| Elf Sugar Cookie | Same here! This great community has some infectious Christmas spirit, that’s for sure! |
| Elf weather tracker | Is there going to be a chat for the elves that track Santa every year in the chat for the tracker press conference |
| Elf Crusader | Just one: any updates on the last podcast I recorded |
| Elf Max | Yes sir! |
| Elf GingerHolly | No but I have a comment: Thank ya for all ya do for Santa. Your work is very much appriecated! |
| Elf Koby | elf roger i always wanted to know about test flights so how long does test flights take do they take up to about 1 hour or 10 mins or just 1 sec in an hour cause we all know on christmas eve santa is very fast in one night on Christmas eve? |
| Elf Crusader | Good question |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Thank you all for the wonderful chat! Its not often I get to attend these since they usually happen while I am working so I am very happy I was able to attend this one! |
| Elf Roger Star | I don’t know about that. But I’m sure it can be recommended to Elf Ernest or Elf Max or whoever is in charge of that stuff. I think that’s a super idea |
| Elf Sugar Cookie | In addition, will the North Pole chat this morning be archived as well as the other chats going on this weekend here and on santaupdate.com |
| Elf weather tracker | Thank you |
| Elf Roger Star | Once test flights begin they will continue around the clock for several months. There are several prototype sleighS and many teams of test flight pilots and reindeer. |
| Elf Crusader | Great chat! |
| Elf Roger Star | Awesome to have you here, Elf Buddy Frost |
| Elf GingerHolly | Elf Koby if you ever need any help I would be glad to assist you with your troubles! 😉 |
| Elf Koby | wait are we ending now? |
| Elf Roger Star | I believe so, yes. They usually show up several hours later. |
| Elf Buddy Frost | Thank you Roger! |
| Elf Crusader | As always, it’s great to be an elf and work beside you all |
