LOL!  So you guys come in and whine about those whining about the numbers....hahahahahaha.


I'll put it this way.........many folks have been trying for a long time to get the likes of Howard Tern or the Grease Man off the radio and TV to no avail.  The answer is really simple.....all radios and TV's (at least every one that I have ever seen) has a channel knob on it.  Don't like what you hear?  Change the channel and don't listen to it.....last I looked, this BBS has lots of thread topics and forums....and frankly most of the "whine" posts are blatantly obvious.....yet...you still...click...the...link... and then...procede to whine about others that are whining about something else.  Sorry, I find this very humorous and it makes me laugh out loud (it really does)......


Oh, and while we're at it...just tonight, the ROOKS (of all teams...how dare they) outnumbered everyone by a significant amount!

It's funny too in that the Bish were half-arsed attempting to help them clear out the knits just so we could get off that bloody Mindanao map....

Next!

Here's the difference.  Those who are sick and tired of seeing whines about an imbalanced arena don't keep posting inane topics about it ad nauseum.  Call it a reactive as opposed to proactive whine, if you will.  They also don't jump into the middle of threads unrelated to numbers imbalances to explain how much they disagree with those who whine about numbers imbalances.  Nor do they berate people on Channel 1 for flying on a side with a numbers advantage.

"Whining" about those whining about numbers would not exist without the numbers whining in the first place.  Numbers whining alone, however, could go on forever without a counterbalance.

Whenever I see these posts re player numbers I always think of this quote from an unknown officer in the US Civil War when notified that his forces were totally surrounded by the enemy.

"Good now we can shoot in all directions!"

What Airhap doesnt tell you is that when these numbers were present it was right before a Bishop reset during the middle of the day on Monday.  Of course the Knits and Rooks have less players, cause we were pounding the Knits and the Rooks were jumping over to help us cause they thought they could get perk points too.  :)

If you wanna post whines about numbers and being outnumbered, at least qualify your data by telling what the situation in the arena at the time was.  To just simply come in here and post this withouth the qualifier that the reset was imminent is just moronic.

Last Night I ended up being one of two bish defending A5,  When I looked and saw about 30+ nits vulching the field and came to the conclusion that 1 more pass would have me too deep in it to get out I turned for home.  I looked behind me and no less than 17 of the dweebs were tailing me.   I dodn't care they wernt gonna catch me.  I actually laughed because the only way they were gonna get me is if I revved and of course there was no way I was gonna be that stupid.  I went home, refuelled and went somewhere a bit quieter.

Point is numerical advantage is just a local thing, even when 1 country outnumbers the other by 2-1 your still gonna get into situations where you are heavily outnumbered, and you can always find an even numbers fight if you look.

I always laugh when I see the numbers whines.  Problem is there will always be people who beleive that the game should be angled to give them maximum success at all times and anything else sucks.

Obviously ppl who don't rise to a challenge anyway.

IMHO Outnumbered means more lunch and the freedom to engage without 10 other friendlies chasin your badguy down too.

I think it takes a lot of courage to fly under a huge dildo icon.

Ah yes another thread about Numbers.  wahahahahaha.... .

A veiled whine and a troll.

Guess what. I'm a knight and I don't care about the numbers.

I like to be out number - means it's easier for me to find something to kill.

make it 200 to 1 - I don't care... I'll kill you all.

come back here and I'll bleed on you!
Yella! You coward! Chicken! Braaa.brabrabrack...brabrabra ck.

a whine eh?  knew the "moronic" comment would be coming.  forgedabout the whine.  how bout all of you who have told me that my orignal comment was so stupid or whiney, how bout you tell us all the merits of the current system.

one i did see, lots of targets & none of your countrymen nailing them before you can.  there's probably some more but i may have missed them.

so again, what are the merits .  if you say i'm just whining w/no listing of the advantages, why the current system is swell, why it's the best , etc . . . well, then what you said previously dosen't carry much weight as far as some system to limit the lopsidedness that arises from time to time.

oh, regading the comment about what "i didn't tell you," i didn't know.  simple as that.

Last night we Knights got our bases captured and carrier sunk.  Rooks won the reset.  Seems to happen to us every couple of days.

Like REM once sang: "Everybody hurts...everybody cries..."

So let me get this straight....you were flying online to snap that shot, but you didnt notice that the Bish were about to reset the Knits?  :rolleyes:

Whats that phrase that the old AW'ers use....something about a clue rake?  I think you might need the whole garden tool shed.
