So I just went to DA to fight AKAK in spit9 in DA. He tells me 25% fuel. He heads in the wrong direction for a bit then heads my way. So delays for a bit.
The Dueling Arena has a slower fuel burn rate than the main arenas. The dueling arena fuel burn rate is 1x, whereas the main arena is 2x. This means fuel burns at a slower rate in the dueling arena than in the main arena.
I took off to the SW, climbed up to around 4,000ft before turning to the North to face you. It's in the film.
Then when we meet, we turn a couple times and my fuel appears to be empty and I'm gliding to ditch. He follows me down, shoots me and tells me he won.
We went vertical on the merge, got a shot on you that punctured your fuel tank. This resulted in your fuel leaking out. While the fuel burn rate is lower in the dueling arena, unfortunately for you, the fuel leak rate isn't. If you watch the film I posted, I punctured your fuel tank and you can quickly see all of your fuel leak out until the tank was dry. Since we were both carrying low fuel loads, it didn't take much to dry your tank.
How do I trust a charlatan? I suspected another trick (did he have 50% fuel?). He's decieved me once already.
Watch the film, it shows what fuel load I had and your fuel leak. The only deception has been from you when you convinced me of your Experten skill, only to break my heart.
He refuses to redo the fight and allow me 50% fuel and then says next fight he picks his fav plane.
The agreement we had was you got to pick the first plane (Spitfire IX) and then the winner would pick the next. I won, so I picked the next plane. You kept crying about how I deceived you, how I was unfair and how you wouldn't fight me unless I played fair.
So he says I lost. Fine, I lost. But it sure wasn't a fight in my eyes and appears to me more of a trick.
Film says you lost as well.
I asked again, let's do this in a fair fight where we both have sufficient fuel to complete the fight and not end up out of fuel. He refuses and leaves.
You were given a fair fight and died. I know I struck a fatal blow to your ego and you can't accept the fact that you were beaten, not only by me but in a plane you consider to be your best. After listening to you cry about how unfair I was or how you wouldn't fight me because unless I fought fair, I left. The next fight would have been no different, you would have cried about me being unfair again because you're just that kind of player.
AKAK, I can't trust you yet. Your unwillingness to fight someone with sufficient fuel to complete the fight is just another odd way you win fights, kind of like telling me you're a 3 week noob the other day. Why tell people you are a x week noob, other than to deceive and enjoy that tactic?
Again, watch the film. You can keep clawing at the "he tricked me with the fuel" line but we all know who got bent over the couch.
So, yes, AKAK, you won that fight, I guess based on your definition, and the two the other day.
By anyone's definition really.
Your beat me in a different kind of way, a way I have no interest in getting good at... because, you see, I don't want to deceive people and be a charlatan. I don't want to win because someone's fuel is so low they can't spend sufficient time to get on the other's six or to have them think I'm only 3 weeks in the game. Apparently you do.
We've already covered the fuel thingy, no need to go over that yet again.
Hehe on the 3 week hook, I gotta admit that it doesn't work all that often anymore but when it does, it sure can be fun. However, you knew already I wasn't a new player because you're a shade account. The other night you accidentally sent a mistell over Channel 200, thinking you were sending someone a private message where you told the person who you were. Later on, I asked you to the DA over Channel 200 and when I asked you, I didn't call you Midway, I used the name you told the other person and you replied to me.
So who is the charlatan now?
Congrats you have accomplished your goal, I believe.
And I had fun too.
Maybe we'll run into each other in MA sometime and have real fights since you can't convince me you're new any more or set the parameters of the fuel level in such a way to take advantage of an out of fuel situation.
It was funny how when you saw me on the Bish side you immediately changed to Rook side to hunt me down. Though, I suspect you're not going to be doing that much often, if at all, in the future.
Was hopeing I could learn something in fighting you. Guess I did.
Honestly, I don't know if there is anything to learn watching that film. Not to be mean or anything but speaking from a general training point of view there really isn't anything in that film that is worth using it for training. Other than the beginning of the film where I'm having a tough time trying to get the plane pointed North, it's a rather uneventful fight of no training value. But if you learned something, I hope the crow tasted good.
ack-ack
