i cannot be with them because they are one hour away.
some of the fraternity brothers want texts every 30 min while others want it every hour. we asked them if we were to send from one phone how often would we need to text and its every 5 minutes but one of us has a auto text app so we are considering doing that but i am quite sure thats not the way we are expected to get through this and there is another solution..
i want to bring it up as hazing but i am kinda scared of the consequences of for say being dropped.. i do not want 11 weeks of hard work, blood, sweat, tears and money to go to waste. (Yes, literally blood, sweat and tears)

For crying out loud:

USE THE "SEND LATER" FEATURE ON YOUR CELL PHONE. Type up a bunch of text messages and time them to be sent at whatever frequency you are supposed to send them. You and your pledge brothers have made this so much harder than it needs to be. If you would have done what I suggested in the first place, it would have taken you about 4-5 minutes to get the job done. You basically hazed yourselves.

theres no such feature on our phones and only one of us has a phone which supports an app similar to that.

there is apparently a way to get out of doing it and they told me to think of the solution or id be going to 30 min timestamps. its hard enough sleeping with 1 hour timestamps.

if you can think of any solutions to help me out, please do so.
Thanks.

All this aside... I get that it's mental, but wouldn't it piss you off if you were an active getting a text every hour on the hour? I wake up every time my phone goes off, whether I want to or not.

They probably put their phones on silent and then just check it later. If they don't, these dumbasses are hazing themselves unless their ringtone gives them a boner or something.
