well...THAT statement invalidates your opinion on the matter. You have NEVER seen me extend past the 60 second limit. Period. Ever. Hasn't happened, nor would.
When I'm done with a fight, I turn my bird to the next target, and yes, I grab (as does everyone) while otw to the next fight.
If you feel I don't fight, just look at the logs of past KOTH's. Not sure where/why you got this opinion TW9, but it's hardly accurate.
Mane, you had two wins, AND the one i considered the biggest threat in KOTH that night (which, is a compliment btw). You will be my 1st target to take out (if possible). If you are in a fight, I will keep as much alt/E as possible while cherrypicking you (or anyone else for that matter. tell me who (besides total noobs who don't know better) doesn't do that?) It's smart flying.
Vendetta? Hmmm.... No, no vendetta. Yes it's true I will focus on two timers 1st during KOTH's. You sir, were picked for this one. Does it have to do with my 3-1 spanking in the DA??? lol of course not. We will duel again i'm sure, and I'll get ya'. (just gota figure out your merge 1st. Sucker is GOOD) There is no vendetta, OR bad feelings about loosing in the DA to you. I'm hardly that petty. Expect me to work on it, and beat you fair and square. Anybody I've discussed our duel with will say I was very complimentary towards you about it. (something, if roles were reversed, I somehow don't think you would be)
Did I fly trying to make sure YOU didn't win?? Hmmm..... I would say that's in all likelyhood, there is a shred of truth to that But again, with your poor sportsmanship, horrible attitude, and a mouth like an pimply 8th grade lad, who wouldn't wanna kill you? Again, if I were you, and reacted to others the way you do, I would hardly be surprised that people would take delight in killing me. With a mouth like that, one would think it's expected. YOU just don't like the fact that I did it (or COULD do it). You have quite the opinion of yourself, (alot of it merited btw, you one of the top pilots in the game) but do you have to be such a baby and rude? Bad form.
IF you were not there, and say WldThing was, I would have focused on him. Or Fester, or Urchin, or Shane...etc... Heck, others do it to me, and you don't hear me whining like a baby 'bout it. I recall one KOTH where I raced out to two wins in the 1st 3 rounds (ALMOST 3 wins durn it) and was horribly gang banged for the next three + hours. Did I crybaby on the bbs 'bout it? Of course not. Did it get old? Yes it did, and was quite frustrating, but I laugh about it now.
When there are multiple con's in the area, you will drag them to each other, get THEM to fight, and then come back and kill the survivor. Is that bad? Nope, it's smart. What you started really whining about, is when the two didn't fight, and stayed on you. THAT is to be expected with a two timer. It's how it's done. Sorry you don't like it, but that is gonna happen. (please see above parag. about geting ganged like that and not whining) Heck, in many a KOTH i've had 4-8 guys on me to the exclusion of each other when I have 2 wins. Again, not something to be a baby about.
About the final fight where you were booted. I had alt and a ton o' E on you, and you were fighting another pilot. When I came into the fight, you broke and ran. The other guy was @ 1k ish out from u, and chased you for over a min. I stayed behind him w/ alt and also chased. After that min you HAD to turn. That's the rules. If roles were reversed, I would have turned and fought. But you kept on going. After about min. # 2 the other pilot finally broke. I stayed on you and you ran, and you ran, and you ran. Could I have dove in on you and blown my advantage? Sure. Did I HAVE to? No. The RULES are you have to turn and fight. Period. Soooo.... after 60seconds you had to break back and fight. Could you then, after turning back, extend again? (like I saw you do many a times that night. Do a 1/2 hearted merge, then start running again) sure, you coulda done that. THAT would be within the rules. There isn't much else to discuss here. Over 4min or extending (almost 5, you never did turn until i broke off) SHOULD get you booted. Sux I came in with alt/E on you, but I did. What SUX more is your flagrant breaking of the KOTH rules.
Your mad because I didn't blow my position to fight your fight. Sorry 'bout that laddie, but that's not gonna happen. If I have position on you, I'm gonna keep any and all advantages I can. As sir do you, or any other pilot that flys.
BigMax has the right of it, and he did what he felt he had to. I'm sorry you forced that situation on him. Shows a total lack of charachter. In the future KOTH's (like say this Fri. at 4pm eastern, or the tournement o' champs on the 18th) do I expect you to hunt me? Sure, why not. Would be fun. Will I go to the bbs and crybaby about it? LOL hardly.
