ARMED SHEEP
« on: October 13, 2001, 10:54:00 PM »
Alright kept experiencing strange crashes all night long. Would try to up from a base and would launch to field and then wham blow up. I thought it was a bug. Well until I took a GV up trying to help stop the Knight advance in the south against us Rooks.

While in the GV I noticed strange white dots buzzing about the base at high speed and thought to myself. The sheep are moving!?! Was funny until they opened up with guns.

Even then it was sort of funny seeing sheep buzz around the base. But then when I watched a sheep camp out at the end of a runway and blow up pilots trying to take off .. well I sort of put two and two together and no longer think my mysterious deaths on takeoff were a bug.

It is a funny CON prank but it definitely got abused tonight. It would have been a lot funnier to some of us who did not go to the CON if you at the very least did not make them stealth ninja sheep and had them actually have CONs that read sheep when we got close to them.

As it is I watched several of these stealth sheep camp out on runways and shoot down people trying to up and suspect that is what also happened to me multiple times tonight before I caught on.

Right now I rather irritated over this but will probably be over it by tomorrow and tell other people about the great Ninja Sheep attacks of October 2001.

For crying out loud buy a sense of humor.  Or better yet get a mossie and go hunt the little buggers.  Great fun, I got 19 on my last sortie.  Make sure you lead em a lot cause they move like hell.  :)

Sharky I do have a sense humor but when the CON stunt is abused I think I have the right to get a little irritated over it.

Basically had a sheep camp out on the end of a runway and blast anyone taking off. Couldn't figure out what was going on since no CONs on enemy sheep and dar bar clear. I thought it was the earlier bug that kept crashing my plane when I tried to take off after I got shot up and crashed into the ground.

To find out that ninja sheep had invaded our base and then settled down to vulch .. well I'll probably find this funny tomorrow but I don't find it very funny at the moment. Especially since I think I lost a me262 to one of the little buggers (don't want the perk points back but first time I try the plane and to lose it like this .. well not happy but will be fine by tomorrow).

As I said it would have been a lot funnier and not have irritated me at all if the damn things weren't stealthy and showed up with a SHEEP con or something.

True and I will be telling the rest of my squadies about the sheep invasion and I know it will be apart of the AH history and mythology which will be told over and over again at future cons. So by tomorrow I will be over my irritation at how some people abused the Ninja sheep and really took advantage of the situation.

GhstDncr,

It wasn't abused.  That's what the event was.  Get on the field and make people run the gauntlet.

I am here at the con and I just want to assure you that nobody here abused the sheep.  If we had, the ASPCA would have come down hard on us.  Man, you should ahve seent he stuff they made us sign just because we had 50's on them.

Ghstdncr, do yourself a favor and get a clue.  This happens at every con, and like it has been said before, if you don't like it, go to the con next year.

Man, I can't believe... never mind, I actually do believe people would whine about this.   :rolleyes:

Mathman, Karnak, and Creamo,

Fine, you consider this dweeb whine and yes, I know that strange things happen on CONs .. they always did at the AW CONs .. basically put the above down to not whine but venting on the spur of the moment. Didn't realize CON was going on, knew it was soon, but since I was not going didn't keep track of the exact weekend. Also at first thought it was a strange bug that was randomly crashin myself and other I was flying with on going to the launch pad. So basically when I figured it out that it was the sheep and they were shagging me for once  ;) I lost my cool and vented here about it.

Now I have one more question .. when I am going to see the sheep listed on the stats page of the website?

Would be cool to see how many sheep shot me down and how many I shot down once I got a clue.
