Well I have gone against Sunfan in the DA, and found him to be a gracious and very good foe.

im asking you now if you want too see the film... and BTW the standard merge in the DA isint going 5 k above your enemy. its same alt, and yes most people do dive on the merge.

i think what he meant by "diving" was that you climbed to a higher than agrred to alt, while outside vis range..then dove to the agreed alt, to store extra e. i've seen others do that, and even my own squad CO did it to me a couple times.....i didn't reralize what he was doing till i watched the films afterwards.......although i did kil him a couple times :D

I just find it funny that even though I was drunk, it was possible for me to lose graciously in the plane you picked while adhearing to the rules, but when its my pick of A/C all sorts of wierd merges started happening, and when I won a couple the complaining was even harsher.

The fact you had some other guy on channel calling me a retard rather hurt my feelings, but I digress....
From now on I will submit to no rules outside of plane type and fuel load out...no one wants to do what they say they will do if it means possibly dying in the process.

By the way Sunfan, it wasnt all bad, you showed yourself to be an excellent stick in the f4u, and to answer somones question of why I posted this thread, the fact is I knew if I didnt get in the forums 1st, Sunfan and friends where gonna post both the video and thier own version of what happend....This is why I never DA, the Ma has no rules and is truly a better example of the kind of flying I persue.
The DA can be polluted by one persons ideal of what "FAIR" is,thus isnt the same reflection of situational awareness or fair play, because honestly....war AINT fair.

P.S. My Handle is Popysed, and that was my 1st DA in 7 years of flying under several renditions of the name popyseed.

So why ask for a DA if you dont know the rules? and BTW the only fight you won was Ki84 with a 3k alt advantage.
As to your other point of war not being fair, this is a game not war. A game witch enables us to put are dogfighting skills too the test. The whole point of the DA is to have a fair fight, and not try to get an advantage.
