MA Players - a challenge
« on: September 13, 2017, 02:17:37 AM »
Dear all MA players. It is my contention that you've all devolved into a bunch of hipster, lightweight, egocentric, narcisisticly-groomed nancy boys, who hide under the tactical imperatives of a 'real-war' to escape getting shot down. Of course you're pretending to save your plane to fight another day. A virtual plane. I totally believe you.

Once there was a time when a larger percentage of AH players would nut up & pitch themselves, their favourite aircraft and their finest ACM against each other in a one-on-one duel. Fight to the death and deal with it. Reflect why and try to improve for next time. This was their finest hour.

If you tire of the decadence of the gaming equivalent of your name being written on a Starbuck's coffee cup, find the cushy fantasy-protected, all-convenience and instant reward-based society tiresome, and crave for something challenging for a change. If names like Hans-Joachim Marseille, Hiroyoshi Nishizawa or Georges Guynemer mean something to you, then come and join the small cadre of Match Play regulars. Leave your ego in the hat stand at the door. Fight hard, die hard and learn from your defeats and victories. You'll learn more ACM in ten two minute fights than you will in two weeks of MA handbag contests.

Two men enter, one man leave.

See you there.

No that you.
I just want to drive around in my M3.

Oh dear .... 'Shida's devolved into Changeup (minus the 'real men - like us muppets - fight in the DA. I challenge any one of you to a duel in the DA with one of my squadmates!'). ;)

(Ok, not really .... maybe the 'anti-Changeup?')

You've been promoted to my little black book of 'Barstards against whom not to pull any ACM punches'  :banana:

Who needs ailerons with all that torque!


Bozon I've seen a video of you flying that Mosquito. Apparently you're tall enough for this ride. Be looking out for you!  :rock


Anyone else a master of one plane type or another jump on in. Never seen a Corsair there for example (tough opponent), F6F, P-38s, LA7s etc. The spawns are at random alts and locations.

All joking aside, would be great to increase the popularity of this arena.

Shida, I dropped Whatsapp, it ran my phone battery dead. what time are you usually in the DA? I'd be thrilled to get some more time in with you, any plane. I will always be glad of that day when you asked me if I REALLY wanted to learn. I still remember flying in circles, tighter and tighter and slower, flaps full, learning to judge what the planes would do. I will remember and SALUTE you till the day I die.

That's hilarious NrShida.  i do the same thing at Starbucks, make up some name that no one would ever actually saddle their kid for life with just to get the reactions when they write the name down and then call it out when the order is done.  LMAO!  Great minds think alike eh ?
