Why do you play the game?

[Steve]

1) Not at high altitude

2) The fight happened at DA with ground floor at 6k. Is that really so hard to grasp? A blind man can see the hurricane outclimbing and turning the brewster in the spiral climb after several flat turns.

He accepted the duel under the circumstances that took place and he lost.... little else matters.

Frankly, I don't see the big deal. Some guys you beat, some guys you don't.

If you read my posts with thought after the Deltadog's first post, you should easily notice that I'm not hiding behind a plane or anything else either as you seem to imply here.

I didn't imply anything, I just made the statement that the 239 is superior to the hurricane. Then again I think that the A-20 is a fighter so you have to consider the source

Frankly, I don't see the big deal. Some guys you beat, some guys you don't.

Not a big deal at all, there's a rider out there for the wildest horse or something like that.

But you aren't obviously following the thread too closely and/or really realizing what's going on here.

He accepted the duel under the circumstances that took place and he lost.... little else matters.

Also, just wanted to add that it really wasn't a duel in the true sense of the word in anyway. Read below.

I play because it is the only time you can hang out with a bunch of guys and wear tights without being looked at sideways 

Don't lie...you all do it

Happened to find a couple screenshots.

The truth is usually a good tool to deal with flat out lies.


Here's quote from Deltadog's first post on this thread:

very similar thing happened to me against the same guy. He had the advantage in his Brewster, but wouldn't fight 1v1 and only engaged once he had friendly backup. After getting killed by his buddy in my Hurri MkIIc I extended a cordial invitation to the DA, which he graciously accepted, providing I stick with the Hurri, and he with the Brewster.

Based on the dates from the screenshots I found a film that most probably has the stuff recorded what happened before Deltadog asked me to the DA. I do know that I shot him down at least once from the top most screenshot but my recollection is that I got him twice, I could be wrong as I can't get the film to play. It crashes my filmviewer among a few other films. I'm thinking it has something to do with the terrains being updated with the strat update.

My reply:

Just wow, that definately was below the belt!

You said yourself we were just testing planes, and the moment I said lets change planes you were suddenly in a hurry and logged out. No problem just found it funny. You said yourself lets go to DA and test planes....the way you act now is a rather big contrast to that situation. I won't go into the name calling but that is just low. The minute I said lets change planes you were in a hurry to leave. You would have losed just the same way in a Brewster against a Hurricane IIc as I did as long as 6000ft hard deck is used. Just like I told you.

The next quote from Deltadog:

You went to the DA with me knowing that I intended to prove you couldn't win without your wingmen or your wussy tactics and that's exactly what those films proved.

Next quote from Deltadog answering my question why he was in such a hurry to leave when I wanted to change planes:

Losers always want to keep going in the hope they will eventually win one, pwnage gets boring after a while.  

We had exactly two fights which Deltadog posted films from. He asks me to the DA and the moment I want to switch planes over he's suddenly in a hurry. After he left I typed .f deltadog and he was back in the MidWar-arena.

I can't believe this purse fight is still going.

Heh what I see in this thread is homeboys going around in a ring with donuts out 'tapping eachothers in hiney' even though they have zero contribution to the topic of discussion i.e. snaphooks whine.

But that's fine business as usual. 

If anything it shows wmaker has stepped on some nerves, too many people crying and trying to prove something off-topic. By having to prove how 'awesome' pile-its you are you in essence show your lack of confidence to yourselves. Maybe you define yourselves through AH and it makes you feel powerful by belittleing other players. Only problem is the game is supposed to stay fun not a pissing fest of egos.

All in all this chest thumping results only in one thing: Less customers for HTC in the long run. Keep up the good job!
