Lol omg.  I have an ego and even this makes me want to throw up.  100 duel challenge kazaa?

You want to make yet another challenge between us. Yes you're right, you do have an ego and yes I will accept the challenge.

:rofl Bone

Actually, I hardly have enough time anymore to win the battle against rust, let alone beat Kazaa consistently.  I can beat you without flying for four months, so pipe down choir boy :) My only motivation for actually wanting to do something like that would be because I know how much it would chap Kazaa's pompous bellybutton when he lost.  It's not really worth getting 'in form' though, too much stuff to do in RL.  I'm glad I decided to show up for a koth this year though so I can at least fly in TOC and get 'legally' ganged by all you dfc guys that helped one another qualify.

Grizz,

We've spoken to one another many times on Ventrilo while duelling each other or winging together. This is the first time you've ever brought up your "motivation to chap my pompous ass". Infact it's a suprising turn around in the attitude which you've displayed in front of me in the past. I heard you were two faced but I didn't beleive it, until reading the above quoted post that is.

I don't go for top fighter score, Grizz can obtain that accolade every month if he likes. I can assure you that it doesn't bother me a single bit.

I pointed out that The Few DFC obtained top fighter in our first tour as a unit just once, in our squadron recruitment page. I can assue you that there's no emphasis on score and/or trying to prove something. The Few DFC would have challenged the AoM if we did, not the other way around; infact we would have challenged LD as they are currently the best. Also, The Few is doing just fine, infact better than ever.

But being that you're a member of the AoM, a squad which I'm told by one of your own members self imploded over wanting/not wanting to maintaine an elite standard with regards to recruiting; resulting in great friendships being lost over a video game, I will take your words as a caution.

But I'm sure The Few will not make this mistake. Sporting the DFC suffix is a reward for players within The Few who've made great effort to include themselves in squadron based activities (Squadron Duelling League) and shown high degree of skill in regards to their flying ability. The Few still accept anyone within reason into our ranks. i.e: not a stalker.

On the subject of TwinTail, he was asked to leave.

Me thinks your intel is faulty, but considering the likely source, not too surprising.

Infact it's a suprising turn around in the attitude which you've displayed in front of me in the past. Two faced much?

Ah yes, the good ol chicken and the egg paradox.  The way you've acted since and during our little ventrilo play dates is the reason for my changed attitude.  It's a cause and effect relationship.  And do not worry, I will not be coming back.

Some food for thought:  

The last time we dueled, you convinced me to come in there with you, even though I told you I was rusty and wasn't really in the mood for intense fighting.  You seemed to really want to go at it though, OK, so we dueled a few k4s (I think I won) and then we dueled some ungodly number of spit16 fights.  You wiped the floor with me, something like 15-5 or who knows what it was.  I was trying all sorts of goofy merges, ripping my wings off, shooting like a 2 week newb, and basically flying like one!  I didn't mind though, I was having fun, flying in your plane, a plane I never fly, never will fly, and was just mixing it up.  Of course, after the fact, when I hear that you were gloating like a high school teenage girl about how bad you owned me, I realized it was never about fun.  So, apparently I cannot let my guard down when fighting against you guys.  On my end, I might be just mixing it up, trying new things, having fun, but on your end, you are tallying grizz scalps while building a case for your own uberness.  I didn't notice at the time, but I should have known it was not for fun when, after you pulled an admittedly awesome reverse snapshot on me in one of the spit16 rounds, you screamed on ventrilo about how awesome you are or something to that effect.  At the time I let it go, but it really all makes sense now.

And here we have it Ladies and Gents, why we play the game remember? For those of us who still don't yet get 'it'.

Those comments I made were all very tounge in cheek. :P In 6000+ posts on the forum I made two outlandish remakrs for the lols. :lol

+1

They actually think you were serious with no sarcasim whatever in those statements

It's fine when someone else does it, kinda like if someone wins "The Open" in golf the oldest championship and father of all golf tournaments (There the finest Golfer of the year) in AH it's the TOC and you are the Finest pilot in the game until someone takes you off the winner's circle in the TOC.  Thats how it is in all sports and in all games but if it comes from the Few it's Ego tistic al dlffdslj adfljfdks 

All these statements below I'm all good with, it's all in good competition, feeds more enthusisism, and increases the fun but it's no different from anything the few has said in the past.

If it's from the Few it's conceited and if it's from AOM it's confidence.  Guess conceitedness and confidence goes hand in hand. 

You guys need a life if it bothers you that much to pull out statements from 2 months ago and keep slashing at the few.

And whatever is said it's not going to change anything whatsoever so :salute

<----------- off this thread



Everybody needs to just relax and do some simple math.  In my OP I said 2 10 man duels of 10 duels ea...and 6 duels 8 man ea over that course of the year.  That's 8 scheduled duels over the course of a year.  Not that difficult to get in and we don't need to do it !This Sunday!

Kazaa, we want these fights to be 8 player mins.  6 is okay for SDL but favors a squad that is top heavy but has an empty cupboard after that.  You guys stand a chance 6v6.  8v8 and beyond you guys don't have a prayer.

before u try becoming "a voice of reason" u may want to read the rest of the thread first.   the OP was a challenge to the "DFC". in no way, shape or form has anyone given any reason why not to fight the DFC.    tell yourself what u need to Rumble, AoM has this in our sleep.

i'm saying that i'm confident in our ability as a squad to overcome whatever challenges arise.   

Not at all, the intent for wanting it to be 8 or more guys is to make sure the fights are representative of the two squadrons.  A squadron is group of 32 pilots (In the few's case it is a bit more), and the duels should be a representation of squadron strength, not Bruv, Kazaa, and Drbone vs Kappa, grizz, sunsfan, etc.  AoM challenged The Few DFC, so that's what the fight should be.  6v6 isn't terribly low, but then again, it isn't very representative of actual squadron strength either.  Don't get me wrong, you guys are incredibly talented at the top, but that isn't the point.  What I find to be humorous is The Few wanting to limit the pilots that fight, as if they don't want some of their members to participate.  The Muppets will put up any member to fight these fights.  I guess its just a confidence we have in all of our guys, call it what you will.


And to increase the intensity in the fights we must have alittle bit more then a prayer 10v10 if we had

17 players out 20 still alive after the last two fights and 20 of Aom dead.

 Is that conceitedness or confidence I could care less it is what it is good day
