Lets call it strange observation
« on: August 06, 2024, 08:05:21 PM »
Aug, 6, 7:15 ct.

Player A Bish
Player B Knit - Sqd = Ghost
Player Me Knit

Fight between Nits and Bish
Player A with odd plane movements, I land a few hits and suddenly he's nose to nose firing and I die. No biggy, he likes to kill me.

Take off from a base where Player B is also at. 10 min into grabbing alt in the middle of nowhere, no dar, Player A flies directly to me for kill #2.
It caught my attention because this is the 3-4th time he has flown exactly to me in the middle of nowhere with no dar in the last few months.

Player B gets killed by Player A also, Player B responds with "good shots".

Another player posted on 200, a shade account killing a shade account, ironic.

Player B responds in the similar sentence structure as the usual Player A, asking who they thought he was.

I look at Player B's score, 10 sorites - 9 kills, 1 assist.

The battle between Bish and Knits dies. SO I thought, if Player A wants more fights he'll have to go after Rooks.

If my hunch of a connection here is right Player B will switch from Knits to Rooks, and Player A will start killing Rooks.

Sure enough Player B switches to Rooks and Player A starts killing Rooks, exactly as I predicted.

I always wondered how Player A can accurately target single players all night, flying exactly to them no matter where they are.

I mention the score and switches on 200 and Player A logs off.

There's a fowl scent in the air

Have to look, I was filming most of the night. Pretty sure I filmed that last fight, which is kind of irrelevant.

Prolly not while I was looking through clipboard, but there are logs. <shrug>

Not trying to prove anything, because it's just an observation, but a strong one.

Sounds like some serious Deja Vu there.

BTW, it's not like me to post hysteria about fights. I'm not a sore loser.

I'll save you the trouble: He's claiming Wrecker is me (or one of my alt accounts).

No I'm not trolling. Yes, he's that oblivious.

Didn't claim anything. Never mentioned a name, here or on 200

Although there is something to be said about predicting accurately of two individuals.

I was there and have the film of wrecker getting called a shade right after I killed him. I have the same film of him saying "good shots" to me.

I'll post the film if you'd like me to show you quoting Wrecker's stats and then harassing him, but trying to do it in such a way you could deny you were referring to him. You can't lie your way out of it.

A quick forum search would reveal he's been here for over a decade.

Hey All <S>,
I haven't really posted on here in what, 20 years? I flew pretty regularly in the 200#s as a member of the GHOSTS and enjoyed the game a lot and honestly felt like I did pretty well. I went off to college, moved away, then started a family. Within the past few months I have found myself with some free time and returned to the game and have been enjoying it, but have found the community to be pretty hostile to be fair. I have always been a Rook and so has my father, Havoc. We restarted the GHOSTS (just the two of us) and I now find myself being called a "shade" for one of the more divisive characters in the game.

He's a good pilot and honestly I'm flattered, but I am not Skyyr. I'm just a guy sitting here in Oregon with my old Logitech Extreme 3D Pro casually gaming away when able between micro screen freezes.

If you want to continue to think I'm not who I am, that's fine, I hope it doesn't lessen your enjoyment of what seems to the death throes of the game.

That's great you are having fun flying with your dad. I'd love to get my dad into this stuff but he has no interest. If you could fish from the planes, he'd try it I guess.

Don't listen to any of the drivel in this place or the sewage in the arena, it takes away from the fun and means nothing.

In fact, I should listen to my own advice in that regard.

You and Scott66 are in Oregon, I'm just across the river in Camas...... I was wondering what that smell was wafting up across the river.  :P

I will vouch for Wrecker, he is not Skyrr. I flew with Wrecker years ago when he was a teenager as he said so welcome him back and stay off his ankle. Animl probably thinks this as he was flying a TA last night pretty darn good as well. Welcome back Wrecker and I’m glad you are doing well  :salute
