What if you go from blue to ornage etc in that time period? I wish I would have film/taken a screenshot of this situation (smacks self in face) :o

You're right Junky there is something a little wacky going on with Country time changes.  A lot of the time you can go to the other arena and switch sides even if the arena you are in says you can't change for xxx minutes.

Spies exist in people's minds as something they can blame their failure on. The guys that really do spy seem to be pretty quickly outted by the community and are in a minority. Being paranoid of people spying on you in a game must really suck.  :frown:

yes their mythical creatures like bigfoot, which is why the discussion lead to how the "chupa cabras" cannot be stopped because of their communications outside of this game...you will probably read this an make more opinionated assumptions of failure, paranoia and weeping. please make an attempt at creating a thought that has some sort of fact to it...otherwise just let it go :rolleyes:

I kinda think some folks take this game far too seriously.

And Skuzzy, I need some clarification on this shooting down the other guy bit.  Are you suggesting I'm not winning when I get shot down?

I get so confused sometimes :furious :huh :cry

Am I the only one that, when in a mission and I see a large nme dar bar pop up at the base I am heading towards, think to myself (or type/say on range)  "Woot! This is gonna be FUN!"?

I encourage spies to inform the enemy about my missions.

No fun if their isn't any bad guys to kill.

Even MORE fun when there is a lot of them.

Currently, the best way is to shoot down the other guy before he shoots you down.  Ta-da!

Skuzzy, I know you had the heart of a furballer within you.

Now I understand why you're the head of the Consortium of Twelve of SAPP.

I know there is nothing anybody can do aboiut it, even HTC, but i wanted to complain about thoose jerks who join your missions and leave after they know the target, go to the other side, and tell all there buddies where the low and slow bombers are at and where they're going. Anyway thats my complaint for today.  :old:

look at the bright side.

he's bringing you more cons to kill.

that said, it would piss me off too.

All this talk about spies has everyone on edge:   :noid

 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Perhaps it could be noted in the text buffer...**** country changed to ******

It won't stop those changing and has no real effect if you don't have an agenda behind your move other than the fighting on your side is a little lack luster.

I switch between rooks and knights several times a week.  I like to play rook but my squad plays as a knight.  as a courtesy to others i follow this rules.

1 I announce on country Chanel that I am switching and wish everybody good luck.
2 I never go back and fight in the same area that I was flying around for the other country.
3 never take advantage of the information I have flying for the other country, that includes cv location, missions, etc..

there's been many times where i get shot down by some guy that I was just helping not 5 minutes before because he switches countries to take advantage of the situation.  some of these guys are so called "best" players in the game.  that's how they play and nothing I can do about it.  it dont even bother me anymore.  I just dont help them or even bother to give them check sixes.

people are gonna play however they wanna play.  so just make sure nobody takes the fun away from you and if they do.  then join me playing pogo.  I never get tired of that, or look at the banana dance  :banana:. now that's enternaining  :D

This is what I'm talking about, and i do enjoy a good fight but as you can see some agree that it can be a nuisance when the best mission of the night fails because it got jumped by a country jumper.

It wasn't a very good mission if one guy busts it.

A very easy way to prevent country jumping would be to make it last all month, or at least the rest of the map.  I dont buy  the "change to the low side" story because usually within minutes other players log on and numbers get all messed up again.
