    Actually you need a 36 hour reset to start your 70 again.

    I finished school 3 months ago, and have been truckin' ever since. I was taught 70hrs/7days then 36hr reset. 130hrs/14days then 72hr reset.

    Is this 120hrs/14days something new?

    You were taught wrong. It's been 120/14 since at least 2007. Could be longer but I don't know what the rules were before then.

    Ya, my bad. Guess that's what happens when your trained by cowboys...LOL

    Oops... went back to my notes from class and they did teach 120/14. My mistake.... don't know where I got the 130/14 from.

    Thanks for the correction TinyT
