to hell with the score!

[Citabria]

I been flying with eyeballs in back of head since new TOD to see how well i could get a score for myself in my shiny P38...

But then I decided to fight back against my scoremongering addiction and said...
What the hell  
 went in low and fast on the deck into a cloud of red west of 27 over n over again(me bishop   ) and surprised Westy many times <S>  

now if I could only keep myself from looking at the danged score page I'd always have as much fun as I did tonight.  

<S> everyone near 27 (rook n bish) who all had a great time keeping the fight low and free of alt monkeyness. very fun

Hey Guys!

I dont understand how furballin and dyin is fun....would'nt it be better to dive thru the furballs, pickin off the evil enemy at 450ias, and then landin those kills?

After landing an intense sortie, it feels real good to me...you know, accomplishment and all that stuff

That way, the score becomes a bi-product of how ya fly....enlightening isn't it?

Give me some feedback as I'm curious.

Rude Out!

Citabria,  I also decided this tour I would not care about my score and I'm having a lot more fun!

LANDING?????    

"What do you mean you're out of ammo and returning to base,  fly around and keep someone busy!!"

Heard that on JG2 RW one night and LMAO!  

One of the best flights I ever had was when (I believe it was Wolf37) was low and surrounded by 5-6 bad guys.  I dove down and joined the melee.  Ended up with 3 kills and assist and Wolf got 1 kill out of that group.  Wolf didn't make it and I ran out of fuel for a ditch.

But i just said, "What the hell!  Hold on Wolf!"  And in I went.  Had a blast!!

I agree with the topic header, but then I fly so poorly, I GOTTA AGREE.

Example, last night I am RTB, with 3 scalps, totally dry on ammo, but I see Fatty low on the deck with Ripsnort chasing him, so I divert from landing and buzz Ripsnort hoping to distract him long enuff for Fatty to get a shot or disengage, guess what? Rip got Fatty and a Rip's wingman got me.

I guess I shoulda left my countryman to hang out and dry, but ya don't make friends that way, and U certainly don't win WARs that way, and if the choice comes to helping a countryman or landing points, I've made my mine.

Nope.  Where's the skill in that?

The scoring of kills is so screwed up anyways, why bother!
