I missed my fight with JB11 last night.  My son's baseball team never won a tourney in their lives and yesterday they played 6 games and won them all.  I didn't get home until 11PM CDT.

JB - Its up to you...I missed it but if you wanna do it, I will be on tonight at 10PM CDT if BaldEagle will allow the extension.  The decision is yours sir upon their approval.

Apologies...

Spit Mk I batfinkv (My trigger quit working  :frown: )
Spit Mk I BaldEagl
P-51D batfinkv

Spit Mk XVI batfinkv (Just for fun.  Missed my shot when I pulled the non-working trigger instead of the remapped button then wobbled twice in an extended rolling scissors).

 :salute bat.  Have to try that again when I replace this POS joystick.

I won't have a chance to do updates until sometime tonight so for those who haven't fough yet get those duels in.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Eagl, thanks for the fights. I'll fight ya again anytime. I don't know which was worse, your trigger or my inverted flat spin for 10,000ft in the second round. A faulty joystick is bad luck, a faulty pilot was to blame for mine :)

I wasnt counting the first one due to your trigger problem, i figured it went

Spit I (warm up) - batfink

Spit mk1 - baldeagl
P51-D - batfink
Spit mkXIV - batfink

But then either way is same result. They were good clean fights.

S!

Would love to Grizz, hell it's been me asking you to fight for the last few months!

But I must go sleep, 30 hours is too long to be awake for. Done about 4 hours of archery today with a new bow I just finished. Draw weight is around 90-100lbs, easily. My shoulders are screaming at me. :cry

Oh my.  It seems each week I get later and later.  I've had a lot going on IRL lately.  The review committee probably thinks I've disappeared during the week but I do keep checking in and, since they seem to have a good handle on things, I just let them go.

This week went off much better.  Everyone got their duels in.  Now JOACH1M and Krupinski, aren't you glad you just went ahead with the rematch?  It sounds like you both had fun.  There would have been a lot less BBs drama and a LOT fewer PM's in my inbox had you just done that from the beginning.

Dodger, I hear you collided.  The rules clearly define what happens in case of collision.  Don't take it too hard.  Come back next time and try not to make that same mistake.  I did the same thing last tourney.

From my own perspective, I was dreading having to face batfink knowing he was a good flyer but I felt I held my own so I was satisfied.  Our last fight went 3:30 from the time we crossed paths, most of that in a rolling scissors.  I know where I made my mistake and will be ready next time.   :D

In the only official business of the round J3EWNAH advances by forfeit (he PM'd me rather than posting here) and Sunsfan is now Suns in-game.

This round determines who advances to the quarter-finals; normally a group of exceptional pilots.  Good luck to those remaining.  Here's your match-ups:
