I'd like it better if I wasn't getting my behind handed to me as often as I am. +1

Then how did you ever manage to play with fire?

I borrowed the neighbors from their cave while they were out hunting pterodactyl eggs.

I rolled my roundy round (trying to think of a better name, maybe tare, whar, or wheel) over there.

Yep, and we already have god view for spectating/casting, it would just need some work to make it more friendly and easier to use, maybe some easy buttons to swap to player views.

yep! A few more customization options for the rounds would be nice to set up specific team fights, etc., but Hitech is on the right path with this one.

Spikes, your avatar always sidetracks me :aok

Hey HiTech,

I just started flying in the matchplay/DA thingymajig  Thursday night and Fridaynight/sat morning......

I have noticed that the ranking page you linked above, is actually showing everyone in alphabetical order... no matter what I chose to view in the ranks, it kept popping up in alphabetical order

btw, I love the new Match Play deal........ awesome feature, Thanks

I love that arena truly a learning experience and i have fought Spek , again truly  a learning experience but....  every single pilot in there has been helpful and respectful  even if you arent all that good,and if you ask they will give you pointers. I will say this put your ego away in there  because it will get bruised but some unlikely charcters sometimes but its fun  to watch the different ACMs and how everybody handles them a little differently in the situation.

<S> to all the fine pilots in there  thanks for the experience  .....  Spek  can I have that pound of flesh back now ?

I like the ides of being able to pick your opponent sometime also, the randomness is great but there are times youd like to fight a certain person maybe to teach/learn  or even grudge match  but still keep therandomness because its alot of fun.  Spikes I love it when you post Dont even care what you post  I just love that Icon.  eeeww the score thing  lol  thats bad Im always trying different things in there to try to figure them out so either i quit doingthat and try to get a better score or......  keep doing it and learn something.  see ya at the bottom of the pile.

I wouldn't worry about the score.... I only posted about it because I thought I might have found a discrepancy in the way it was ranking

As for wanting to work with a specific individual, just the two of you pick a dueling field and have at it.....you don't have to always jump in to the Match Play....

Hope this helps

There has been a pretty large group of us populating the arena, especially when the MA is stale.  Lots of 4 v 4, 2 v 2, and obviously 1 vs 1.

We use ch 238 in there if your ever looking for some good clean fun.  Well, most of the time its clean.   :D
the only negative part of the DA is you can't pick your wingman.. I kept getting paired with this Scott66 newb man he sucks :devil

Lol, you seemed to be holding your own late Friday night early Saturday morning there, Scott

I personally don't care if I win or lose these days as long as I can still put up a good fight.....it's all about the fight to me!

Nah, I didn't drink that much, I said I was down to about less than a a 1/4th of the 1/2 gallon of scotch I had opened right at or before we launched in FSO.... still way too much honestly in that short amount of time... first time I couldn't drink the pain away... I have some major spine issues and have torn my right rotator cuff twice, which makes it very painful for me to set and play for even 20 minutes....

That is why people don't see me playing all that much these days....it isn't that I don't want to, the pain is simply unbearable most of the time...

Hopefully my new specialist that l'm seeing tomorrow will have some good news for me and I'll find out when they will want to do the surgery on my C7 & T1 vertebra.... think they said I will have to go through 2 or 3 more surgeries once I get through this next one....

I'm still hurting from flying FSO and then some MA then the Match Play we did....

Still had a blast, regardless of the pain I put myself through

Now you see, this is what happens when you don't consult your friends.  We are easily able to perform this surgery on you, TC, at a much lower cost than you are going to have to pay these specialists you speak of.  Just let us know where it hurts, and what your favorite whiskey is, and when you'll have a few days off. 

Now that I think on it, we need to wait for Molsman to recover.  He's usually the one we designate to sit on you during the procedure.
