Congrats Hangtime and the Allies, who took all 3 rounds.

Special thanks to Hang, and to Wotan & Heinkel for filling in for Hristo who was unable to attend. Special thanks also to banana and Daddog who once again pulled all the levers and switches to make the whole thing possible.

Logs will be posted early next week.

Hope y'all had fun!

We opened the big can of whup bellybutton today. Allied did great.. First two frames we clobbered em good in all cages. LW fought hard but were overwhelmed by thier restrictive leather flight suits.

Third frame, LW worked us over good in one cage.. managed to get a couple of guys into the center.. where they met the 6 survivors from the second allied cage.. took em awile to run the last jet down, but they got 'em.

Nice work, alla u guys.

Since I didn't take part in it, I have no right to make statements except to apologize to everyone for not showing.

It just happens that there are other people near me that need me.

Actually, we wooped yer arse in both cages in frame 2A. To bad you figured out you sent guys to a non-funded cage 3 in time to cry(!) foul and whine for a restart:D Bonehead.

Was good fun, even if I'll have to apply cream to my backside for a while ;)

Connection was an issue here though, discoed 5 times prior to the Rumble start.

I'm assuming someone was hurt unfortunately in a real bad bungee jump type incident?

The AH community I'm sure forwards our support and sympathies.

Hug your loved ones everyone, they are all special.

Frame 2A was great. Even numbers in our cage, good fights, then the allies whined it was too fair

2B, counted 20 on 15 in our cage right off in favor of allies

Lol hypocrites

Theyll never be content without an alt and numerical advantage. Axis has the skill but of course AH is bias against us so we lost.

(:-) j/k folks, that event ismore fun for the jabbering, even though tensions got real high this time around)

thats the thing i countedmy cage 2 times we hasd 15 in frame 2 Hblair counted his 2 times and he got 16 then 17.

I dont see how we were that far over the numbers. Hell I even killed a spit 9 or 2 before they called redo.

I dod however tell all the axis not to go higher then the canyon wall. I heard the cms say several times Not to do that. I guess the allies missed it.


Frame 2A was well on its way to being  an Axis win :)

Going higher than the canyon walls was acceptable.  Flying over the canyon walls was not.  One CM stated that numbers wasn't why the second frame was re-started.  I'm guessing it was because of the clusterfarked arena that only had allies in it.

*sniff*

(wipes tears from eyes)

It was AWFUL!

Nasty LW packed two cages w/pilots, leaving third cage with allied pilots and no adversarys.

Then, we had to actually confiscate allied uniforms and aircraft and send pilots to the other side! Was heartwrenching to see loyal allied aircrews (like the FDB's) forced to wear leather undies and talk like Sgt Shultz.

We killed 'em anyway.

Maybe the Luftweenies should change their tactics for the next rumble.  The "Auger your plane when a con is on your 6" tactic didn't seem to work too well. :D  I've never seen so many 190's and 109's auger, not that it was a bad thing.:)
