I was never confident that the information we currently have about what ranks/office-names people held in CTU are perfectly accurate. And today an [[Special:Contributions/71.215.101.109|anonymous user]] brought something to my attention: on both the pages for [[Regional Division Director]] and [[Administrative Director]], Ryan Chappelle is listed as holding both offices during Hell Gate. Is this possible? Was he clearly promoted from one to the other during Hell Gate? Could Admin Director be simply a short form for Regional Div Director? (I'd do it myself of course but I haven't read those books & Season 1 is the only season I don't have the DVDs for.) – [[User:Blue Rook|Blue Rook]] 21:06, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[[User talk:Blue Rook|talk]][[Special:Contributions/Blue Rook|contribs]]

:I seem to recall both titles being used. But it's just another symptom of what's always been painfully obvious: the writers go for whatever title sounds more authoritative and bureaucratic at the moment. I don't believe for a second that there's any kind of organized rank system, or at least one that gels with what's been given. --[[User:Pyramidhead|Pyramidhead]] 17:18, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

:: Yeah I'm with Pyramidhead, in no way do the writers (show or novel) try to make a valid system of rank for CTU. --[[User:SignorSimon|SignorSimon]] ([[User talk:SignorSimon|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/SignorSimon|contribs]]/[[Special:Emailuser/SignorSimon|email]]) 21:56, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
