with an average of 10 to 9 minutes  per fighter sortie, I guess the Mr. Average isn't your average BnZ run dweeb, who refuses to turn back or even engage without 20 minutes of climbing out. You hide behind the scenes with your average score never trash talking after a death and probably have at least 4 random numbers in your name. Your name is as average as your game play making you soon to be forgotten even after your name is seen in the message bar "you shot down bill0210 #3". After a few hours of getting ganged or ran from, the relief running across mr. average who gladly engaged in a fight with mediocre at best skills is a wonderful turn of events not to mention a slight moral boost, you are the lifeblood of this game ensuring us that it has not been entirely over ran by timid score horz! This being said we salute you mr.average! :salute

Lusch,

Can you work up any stats on why the 10% are in this thread trying to spin their abysmal record on stopping Mr. Average from successfully porking thier resources 90% of the time?

After all, being the best of the best must mean they are better evolved and endowed between the ears to succeed????

But, the real world wide WW2 10% who survived, most went on to become Generals, CEO's, Congressmen, Presidents, State Leaders, National Icons of Humanity, humble philanthropists. None of them used their accomplishment as a license to publicly denegrate anyone else not a member of the 10%.

I guess none of our 10% are the real 10% outside of this cartoon day care center. Once you have been in the company of those men you know they act themselves no matter what they are particapating in.

Any comment past this point by OUR 10% in this thread self validates they are not the real 10% at much outside of the Aces High or the AH Forums login screens.

Based on the Pareto Principle our 10% by their attiudes towards Mr. Average in this thread might be contributing 80% to why HTC has problems keeping average players coming back. Even Grizz realised the game needs happy Mr. Average. He is no longer addicted to socially denegrating the none 10% to get his crusty bunny slipper erect.

Mr. Average is the only reason wars get won by his tireless efforts, sacrafices and deaths in the tens of thousands. We only know the faces of war by the parades given to the lucky few of the 10% who survived and were chosen for the PR appeal to be made into national hero's. None of those 10% spent inordinant amounts of time self PRing how superior they were to the rest of their communities.

Joke- noun, verb, joked, jok·ing.
something that is amusing or ridiculous, esp. because of being ludicrously inadequate or a sham; a thing, situation, or person laughed at rather than taken seriously; farce: Their pretense of generosity is a joke. An officer with no ability to command is a joke.

Lusch,

I can speak only for myself.
While I played, I was part of that top 10% in game. In real life, I am among the bottom 10% so to speak.

And that's what makes this game so addicting... the illusion of grandezza  :uhoh

   You forgot these important stats:

    74% have wives or girlfriends

    of them 48% have kids

    over 60% work real jobs

    98% dont live in Mom's moldy basement on a cot in the corner beside Mr.Frisky's catbox

    99% wont be removed at the time of their death (from Mom's basement) by a crane.
    

Just didnt want to leave that important data out.  :salute

Lusch,

You never used it as a license to be abusive to make your crusty fuzzy bunny slipper get erect.

That's why you are a respected member of the community. The proof that life is about change came with Grizz admitting this game needs Happy Mr. Averages or he would have no game to be a part of. The real deal can see more than his own small emotional addictions what ever he turns his hand to.

Both of you demonstrate qualities which the real 10% have about them that causes people to want to know them. Twenty years from now yourself and Grizz will probably be two names that will come to mind for players reminiscing because in real life you never forget people who act by those qualities.

Human long term memory studies for good and bad experiences shows only the best are selectively remembered based on how memory is physicaly laid down. If the worst becomes a long term memory the person in question is on par with Jack the Ripper, Gregory Dalmer, Adolfh Hitler, Saloth Sar, Josef Stalin..........

How you act in an anonymous setting is a very good window into who you really are, and only act just a hair better in real life to keep your job and someone warm around to make your bunny slippers warm.

just a jab at him :lol i know he doesnt

Didn't make any sense though.  Sunsfan is as much of an anti score guy as I have ever seen.  He'd rather auger when bingo than go land most of the time because he gets bored rtb'n.  Normally a joke is based on some piece of truth, and since there was no truth at all to it, it was just a really bad joke if that's what we are calling it.

Bud Light proudly presents, Real Men of Genius...

Today we salute you, Mr. Average... you never make it to the front page, nobody praises your 1337 skill on the bulletin board, and more often than not you get ridiculed by us AH snobs for your alleged lack of skill...

But today, we salute you!  :salute

So crack open an ice cold Bud Light oh average pile-it of the cartoon skies! Because only you can break all the rules in the NOE base take, gang, pick hordes that all of us BBS users so despise. Go ahead and get your $15 worth each month, because the squelch functions and channel 200 shall always be at your disposal. Never failing to deliever your message of "nice HO, dweeb" or "LOL @ runstang".

Despite your firm belief in winning the war, and knowledge in history and tactics, there be an AH vet to school you publicly... But don't feel bad, Mr. Average, because even if the AH world knocks your cartoon pilot on your butt, Bud Light will always bring back your shiny new plane.

If only the 10% existed in the game half of them would be below average.

But, the real world wide WW2 10% who survived, most went on to become Generals, CEO's, Congressmen, Presidents, State Leaders, National Icons of Humanity, humble philanthropists. None of them used their accomplishment as a license to publicly denegrate anyone else not a member of the 10%.

In AH it seems the bottom 10% go on to be generals and they spend all of thier time denegrating the rest of their countrymen.
