The Great P51/Bomber Conspiracy
« on: April 24, 2000, 05:05:00 PM »
The fine folks from JG/2 are blowin the hell outta a7. Hang rides in, gets one or two and lands to replane, minus half a wing and most his ass..

Bomber hanger is down.. no problem right??

Wrong. can't replane in a stang... the damn system thinks I'm a buff. who'da figgered?

In any case.. came back from 8 twice more.. same thing.. no bomber hanger.. no roll a P51.

This a bug?

Psst, Hangdoobie.  Hairball's the culprit.  Said he wanted to hear yu get accused of 'whining', or something.  

Me?  I think you were just winning too much.

Itsa friggin conspiracy; I tells yah!!  How in hell can I whine about not bein able ta get vulched?? HiTech and Pyro have some sense of humor; yah know??   Jeeeeeeze..

I swear; the system just won't let me roll a stang if the buff basket is porked. The fighter pens were up when I tried to roll.. I watched 109's and spits roll... but I couldn't get the damn system to accept my sworn affadavit that my P51 was sans eggs and tanks. I had ta go to a diffrent field.

Can yah believe it.. here I am willin ta be vulched to save my footlocker fulla beer and the damn system sez "Sorry; chump, yah get no stang here today". I think that Soup Nazi BPO's out ta get me.

Now, dammit; issit a bug or a conspiracy??

Hang

PS; JG/2.. heluva lotta fun there at 7.. good flyin, gents.

I take it you took up a spit then?    (That would be the day!)  Maybe they bombed the North American factory?

Hehe, Hangtime Good fight ! We sure could have gotten A7 faster if you & your buddies were not around !

I know we took the Fighter angars multiple time down there, did U just rely on eyesight (looking at the hangers from the twr) or did U check the map room for Status ? (Might be some sort of lag bug or something)

PS : I hope I didn't scare Hairball when I augered at 450IAS right in front of you (90 deg angle)

Yup. I'm Certain the hangars were up at that point. This has happened multiple times at other fields. During the time in question; Spits were having no trouble re-upping from the field.

Obviously; I'm a spit driver....

LOL.. well; my beer wuz there. I've since moved it a mite further back behind the lines.  

Tonight; I had no problem rollin the pony from a field with the buff hut dead.

Go Figure. <shrug> See.. it wuz a conspiracy. I pick a nice quiet field to up from, entrench the cooler and suddenly, the beer's under threat; no pony reup; bombs fallin all over the putting green, panzers commin, goons about and fighters roaring around... I wuz inna mindless panic fer about an hour there.

(Hang pops a cold bud) *sigh*

Hangtime, I'm sure that it's not a conspiracy against mustangs, just against you.
