If he disco'd you'd get the kill. He just had a really bad connection and probably did not show you were hitting him I guess.


BTW Cable pulling, unplugging, turning off machine, losing connection, all are the same as a disco. Folks just like to think it is something bigger than it is.

My suggestion... calm down and have some mud bugs and beer.

I am ok now shuffler. Also I checked my score I wasn't awarded any kills on him. I just needed to get that off my chest. I have no idea why it was bothering me lol pretty lame I know. Also I would love some crawfish but they are cahrgin 5.99 per lb right now, so I am good lol.
Also Lusche he wasn't. We were in between the town and his base. I thought about that to, but after reviewing the film he was nowheres near concrete. This all happened in about a 10min span also.

Did he have a mixer on back? He may have had his own concrete.

Is this the same that happens when you hit the "window" key ? When I played once in awhile I would accidently hit windows key and go to desktop, This would not cause a disco though! Do you actually vanish "ingame" when this happens ?  :huh

No your just minimizing the AH window to desktop. Your still in game and can crash or be killed.


On longer flights to a fight I might hit window key and go surf the net for some info then come back.

You would read a myriad of complains about me if that were true.  :D

I have AH minimized most of the time, and not on long climbouts only. If I think I have at least 15 seconds of non-maneuvering flight time ahead, I alt-tab, even when enemies are around. (And sometimes this habit kills me ;) )
