Good to see the positive attitudes here. After reflecting on the happenings of Saturday, I can say that the main reason I didn't do well was the fact that I was flying with unfamiliar fellas. They were great guys and good sticks, but I just wasn't used to hearing their voices on RW, so I wasn't sure who was who when they said they were in trouble, etc.
Unfortunately, my squad was split between three different cages. If ts, zig, newwguy, hamish, regurge and I coulda flown together during those 3 duels, the results (probably not the overall results) would have likely been different. We flew where hristo put us. Unfortunately some others expressed that they would not fly at all if they weren't all together with their squadron.
hristo did a great job, not to mention people like wmaker who had to step up at the last second to get a flight together. Getting any kind of flight together at the last minute in an organized event is tough, and wmaker did a great job with it.
Anyhow, there ya have it, we lost because of axis pilot apathy and seperated squaddies flying against a better motivated allied counterpart, and if you read the parser, you'll see we were always outnumbered by an average of 1 plane per cage each round. So, if ya look at the big picture, it is safe to say that we were beaten by a bunch of hacking, cheating, vulching, good fer nothin' bums.
Which brings me to the next issue, the need for a rematch. One that contains the best of the axis vs. the best of the allies. Like 20 vs. 20 or so? That sound ok? And it's not gonna be Pony D's vs. us in 109F's neither.
That is all.
