Really? Because if you're referring to my duels with Raven, I did win those. In fact, I won every fight set except for when we flew F6F's (a plane I don't fly at all). Would you still like me to post them? :rofl
Okay, so you have lost to someone besides Violator, and I doubt you would post a fight that you lost.  That was all I was saying.  Thanks for playing.

As far as posting your fights with raven where an LA beat an F6F in a duel, do what ever floats your boat.  Perhaps that video of you clubbing baby seals would be a good one to post too.   :aok

You asked for that duel, and then you backed down and volunteered someone else. That someone else got beat 8-6. Squirm all you want, it's not my fault your boy got beat.

Feel free to bring the skill yourself, or ask RaVeN to re-duel with you present - that's fine by me. Regardless, it doesn't change the score. ;)

Depends on the definition of a duel. I say you had 3 duels. You one two, raven one. Feel free to change the definition to suit your agenda. 

Anyway, you're uber, the best.  I bow to your awesomeness. (Feel better?)

Yes, I see the difference, my point is that you guys keep trying the same approach, lol, the people that ignore Skyyr or simply don't complain when killed by him, he usually never says anything to.

The guys that get riled up, make a scene, make accusations of hax, those are the guys we like to make fun of, and continue to do so simply because it's hilarious.

The guys that get over the fact is a game and simply ask the question of maybe how he did something (unless you are already in category above) we usually befriend those people. I've seen Skyyr spend hours with people he  hardly knows practicing, learning and teaching in the DA..but those people had the same thing in common.

They realized they got outflown and instead of crying about it like little girls(tears are delicious) they wanted to get better..

Lol I've said it before, people should try the ignore function, I think it will work miracles for both parties involved.

I feel like you're using the term "out flown" very liberally. I've seen you guys. Skyyr, at least, is a good stick, even if he doesn't like to actually do that pilot shiite. But often it seems to involve disengaging, building insurmountable advantage, and re-engaging, often with friends. And if your forum behavior is anything to go by, stroking each other's egos afterwards.

You guys are very much the 49th FG of air to air combat.

A call of "wow, such skilz"  is not unwarranted in that case.

I still do that, despite knowing Skyyr is an objectively better pilot than me. Why? Because he goes for the easy stuff.

Interesting you should say that. Here's a set of fights that had no disengaging, no massive amounts of energy advantages, and lots of turning (my opponent picked all the planes). Oh, and no friends.  In fact, I went AFK on the first merge and came back with my opponent having an advantage. You might know the guy I was fighting.

;)

That's the thing about being outflown - it doesn't matter if it's by a little or a lot, the end result is the same. Therefore, any extra effort is wasted as it yields absolutely the same results. If I don't need to do that "pilot crap" and I can kill you in one pass, why shouldn't I do it? The more time I save on you is more time I can spend on killing the next guy. Time is position, position is energy, energy is airspeed, and airspeed is life.

If you want a 1v1 where you can show off "that pilot crap" (or fail doing it), DA's open. The MA is for killing, the DA is for dueling.

It truly is! I just finished my 4 years at the School for Elitists last week. Majored in Strategic Dominance Gaming Theory of course. Minored in Video Editing and YouTube. Here's my diploma to prove it too.

Actually Skyyr, if I remember correctly I won six fights, you won four aside from the lopsided F6-La-7 duels. This makes me the victor.
