IQ test...
« on: September 21, 2008, 10:35:06 PM »
I wish that in order to be a player of Aces High, you must pass an IQ test with above average IQ, and a basic WWII history test of the major planes.

This would help rid us of tards ;)

For example, earlier today in the DA I was flyin a mossy, got BnZ'd by a spixteen, and so I said to him "Nice trainer kill" and he went on and on about how good he was etc... (he wouldn't duel Hurri Mk I's though xD ) where he then proceeded to say how the spitfire is the only good plane, p38's can't fight and how they were the worst plane in WWII, and in order to fight they needed an 'escort' (he was looking for the term "wingman") where he then procceeded to say how he flew them in WWII (he then said he was about to get his driving permit xD )

tr1gg22 and I set him straight ;)

WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Sounds like an idiot all right, but you started the dickering. Sure you want to make the fact an idiot got you public?  ;)

Hmm

4- Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users and HTC. Flaming or abusing users is not tolerated.

Before I get started, just saying I'm using ThorAce as an example, not flaming or abusing him ;)

And now that I'm about to get started... I'm going to end :D

Trigger, all those intelligent people would leave. This is due to no longer being able to share from their banks of superior knowledge of WWII aviation or overall WWII. Of course you knew the only reason they're here is to educate us and show us what puny squeakers we truly are? ;)

Okay okay...
Can we at least get the stupid ones to not have the ability to fly (Unless it's in a mosquito ;) That's an excellent plane IMO...) or at least semi-mute there text privlidges? :D

Where do I turn in my wings? 

I'd pass the IQ portion of your requirements, but my knowledge of WWII planes is a bit lacking.  Is it a P-40 "Warhawk" or is it a "Warhammer" :O ?  Zeke, Zero, Charlie, Dora, Bernie, Betty, Bunnie, Sunny... what the heck are all the nicknames of all the planes anyway?  I don't know and I don't care; I just want to fly them and have fun.

Personally, I think people should take an IQ test and pass a series of interviews before they can reproduce.

Warhawk, also known as the kittyhawk.

This test wouldn't mean knowing the planes, but at least knowing the difference between "escort" and "wingman" xD

Spend any time in the DA?  I go there occasionally before an FSO to practice in a ride I'm not used to, and you routinely see guys coming into the furball lake at 20k ft.  No joke. :rolleyes:

Well, only if you can tell me what the square root of pi * 3 is...

Little tip, it's equal to the square root of pi * 3 ;)

Here's something to make you laugh while you punch this problem out on your calculator :D
