Championship Shootout ... Something is wrong here

[BigGun]

I have no doubt he is good pilot, sure he is better stick than me.

And I take back the ignorant & stupid comment. I just think it is off base to say that the contest will not alter they way people fly in the MA at all, good or bad.

It does affect how some fly, without question.  How they fly doesn't effect me or the price of beer so I figure they can do what ever the hell they want.

I agree.

[Hornet]

I agree with slapshot.

I want to be a champion too, but I don't want to have to fly.

But wtf do I care about 50 dollars?

Go ahead and analyze them stats. Or set up one of them Big maw gangbangs to hunt me down..........

EDITED THE REST

Sounds like another case of MAW-Envy.

Why don't you sign up with the "I hate MAW squad." I'm sure you'd a perfect fit.


We must be doing something right if we have pilots dedicating their squads to hunting us down.

Are you still pissed about that mass goon drop?

I'm sorry you don't like our missions. I'm sorry there will be more coming.

As for what Slapshot said, he's 100% correct in regard to the unnecessary porking. It is not only increasing, I had one pilot at A28 say on range that he WAS porking the fuel to lower his score.

Mass goon drops are not cool.  That does mess with everyone else's fun in a very uncool way, and as such, is just plain wrong.  Please don't do that anymore.

Not to re-open another can of worms, but we too learned from that experience, Turbot.

You won't see that happen again; at least not from the MAW.

I know I speak for the entire squad when I say we certainly don't want to crash the server and ruin someone's game. I know I have very limited time to fly so I would be angry if the server crashed in my little time slot, due to the actions of some group.

I would venture to guess we did not know this would happen. I certainly had no idea. (I'm not even 100% sure what a server is.)

Wotan ... thanks for the long-winded post that STILL has NO MEAT.

I have been around the game long enough, and know all the same things you have so diligently pointed out ...  

Some people just can't see the forest thru the trees or suffer from a severe case of Myopia.

Looks like you have a severe case of "Wontanitis" ... ... better get to a doctor ... QUICKLY !!!

Turbot .. Massive goon drop was fun, but a lesson learned. The MAW won't be doing that again.

[Turbot]

Fair enough MAW guys.  However someone did do it again towards end of last tour.  Let us all do our part and discourage such things if we see them forming on our country channels.

RogeR that Turbot.

After the Knight Goon drop, I remember being on during another reset (Rooks or Bish won) and the server was stopped up tighter than a frog's bellybutton ... not sure if it was due to a massive goon drop, but the results were the same ... HUGE text lag and stuck in sheepland over the water.

[edit: oops ... thanks Turbot ]
