 like i said, record your fights, see what you did wrong, and change that thing the next time.

that's how i taught myself the rolling scissors, just trial and error, watching old films, using my views and such. i'll look for you in the TA:aok



Another tip -- if I've just been owned by a non-jerk good stick, I'll often throw a salute then PM and ask what I did wrong. I get a lot from that, especially the subjective stuff I wouldnt pick up on my own -- like "you were too aggressive after the first merge, and when you burned the E you werent aggressive enough."

IIn my experience, almost all the guys who really know their stuff are very open to this appoach and respond helpfully. As I think about it, the most irritating MA'ers are the midrange wannabes out to prove something that isnt true about their skills....
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

I love it when people chase faster planes than the one they're in - really stupid! think about it, just for a couple of seconds think a little bit in to the future...

Wow, you have the IQ of a kitchen utinsel as well!  I actually only called this out because of the reasoning behind this particular running incident.  Many run because they don't know what to do.  I never post comments about noobs running because they probably don't really know what to do to stay alive when someone is "really" after their arse.  There are, on the other hand, some in this game who are vets and should have by now at least attempted to learn some counter acm's for situations when they don't have the advantage.  Instead they sink into a deep cauldron of lameness in the feeble attempt to keep their rank looking good.  While it is reasonable to "go through a period of learning" where timidness seems an option but in the concept of a "game" lets not waste time sightseeing virtual Trinity countryside, LETS FIGHT!  Just so you know I am not just picking on Coors, here is the rest of the A-list of lamers:

pacerr
sehob
Glasses
all 190D pilots hee hee jk
SHawk would make this list accept he will go to the DA to fight
any other A-list lamers that I'm missing?  Please feel free to add to the list of A-list score twit runners
next week we'll have the A-list of suicide idiot vulchers followed by A-list of camper dorks:aok

Is there anyone you have ever NOT saluted?  You are probably the only person I can honestly say I have NEVER seen lose their temper.

Strangely, those guys would make all three lists.  I guess if you're lame, you're lame in everything you do.
