Shake off the rust!
« on: July 08, 2009, 09:17:38 PM »
I've been away for a month and it shows.  In my own honest estimation, I suck, and my SA has suffered more than my flying ability.  Frequent practice is worth far more than I thought!

The boards seem the same as ever... :P

It does not matter that you suck, or I suck Anax.

The sooner you embrace the fact that it doesn't matter that you suck, the sooner you will begin not to suck.

Unless you are only embracing detachment because secretly you are desperate not to suck, in that case you must detach yourself from your detachment unless you are only doing that because you are still so attached to the desire to not suck that your teeth hurt...darnit! Caught in a feedback loop again!  :devil

Interestingly enough, I showed more A2A skill than ever before after coming back from a multi-month lax. I still got murdered, but they were very long, even, 1v1 fights with a player regarded for his skill. I was proud of myself...and confused as to why I can't be that awesome after a three year binge. :D

Welcome back. 

Even when I take a week off, I can see the difference. 

Don't worry, you will be back to running to your ack/help in no time :)
