Yes, I'm a sore loser. I just had my butt handed to me in battle-ship by my 9 year old. I'm not playing him THE REST OF THE NIGHT!!! And maybe not tomorrow. He can torture his brothers instead.
So how many of you are sore losers? :lol
-
It depends on what the game is :)
-
I'm sure that if I were ever FAIRLY beaten at anything I'd probably be sore. ;)
-
I am - I'm such a bad loser (hate losing at anything) - which is why most of the time I try to be polite on 200 lol....
I cant help it, always been that way - once threw my exwifes backgammon set off a flat roof after losing 16 games on the trot...........
:D

Oh, and skwekerz.

I'm not a sore loser, just competitive :D
Now ask my wife and she'll agree with you that I'm a sore loser.
-
Mom, don't take this the wrong way. But, most of us here are not women.
-
Lmao....sorry, but - lmao..clean up in aisle 3........coffee, nose, keyboard and desk.....
:aok

*and yes, I'm still a sore loser ner*

I gotta call Wurz out on this... he's probably the only one I know that could walk barefooted across a Cow Pasture and not say "Dam" or "Chit".

When it comes to card and board games, my girlfriend's son is a terrible sport when he loses. We used to play "Sorry" every so often, and he was ever so gleeful when he was pushing the rest of back ...but took great offense when the favor was returned. He was much the same way a few nights ago when we played UNO (hate the new cards, btw). I suppose its part of being 9.

Just kidding... I honestly could care less who wins... but it is fun to land kills!
Seriously though.. prior to the demise of h2h I found a nice groove and was winning often... and some guys who came in cold from the MAs to fly in h2h and didn't know me exhibited intimidating and very scary reactions to that. :O
The mature h2h regulars (some of which were MA pilots) watched me develop over time from knowing how to fly, but knowing nothing initially about dog fighting, to gaining some skill and they were very cool and supportive about it and helped me.
I am intimidated to fly in the MAs now... some have too much self-esteem at stake to tolerate a woman shooting them down or competing with them and are very critical of me. It only takes one or two bad apples to totally spoil it.
I wish h2h, but not free h2h, would be turned back on... it was just a friendlier cozier environment with my own arena, thus abusive peeps could be booted without fanfare.
Now, with h2h gone, Aces High has ceased to be a co-ed friendly environment, in my opinion.
I just want to have a good time around friendly people who don't bombard anyone with abrasive attitudes and vulgar and threatening language and whom are fun to be around and develolp skills and work as a team.
Having the .eject command for bad eggs made ALL the difference.
It's all gone now.
Why is it HiTech can not see his way clear to provide h2h only for subscribing MA pilots?
I don't know why I even ask.. Dale Addink nor anyone else at HighTech Creations cares in the least and never will... that much is obvious.

booo hooooo meanie peanie
I admit it Diablo, I've been feeling whiney and blue for over a week...
I am in the process of emotionally pulling out of aces high and the bbs all together... that last thread on women in combat zones really hurt me quite deeply. You have no idea how much.
I should have known better than to read much less ever post to such a thread... It was a stupid stupid thing for me to do and it was a set up to be crapped on.
I am kicking myself for that. Like, what the hell difference does it make what anyone on the BBS thinks about women in combat zones anyway? zip zero nada nothing whatsoever
Jackal1 was a real bastard to me and what should I have expected? ...challanging guys like that... especially on a poorly administrated BBS forum like the O-Club?
Lazs warned me and I didn't listen to him.
You are right Lazs... about a lot of things.
I pissed Jackal1 off being uppity and he let me have it with both barrels.
I have always had issues about fairness and equity and that thread just tapped into long held-in, and deeply felt suppressed feelings.
I hold no ill will towards Jackal1; it was my fault for ever engaging in such a topic in the first place.
The way I am feeling, 2008 will not see me here again.
Even though FighterAce sucks compared to AH in my limited experience with it, at least with FA I can create an arena there. God does their flt sim modeling and aircraft differentiation suck so far... It's like baby arcade modeling or something. I stayed with AH because of it's marvelous flight sim for each unique aircraft.
But I haven't yet tried setting up an arena there so maybe I can adjust the flight sim settings to be more realistic in a customized arena and set up team wars like the old days in h2h.
They have a BBS also... so time will tell.
hugs

It's the internet, their attitudes or words can really do no harm, so it shouldn't bother you. Talk smack back and shoot them down. If anything it's the guys who should be scared of getting their butts waxed by a girl, not the other way around.

Lol, Mac, if you saw some of the "tantrums" when I do something stupid and get shot down - you'd rip me a new one in no time flat.........:D
Tigress, despite not really engaging in the more "potentially argumentative" threads (well, too much anyway", I think if you left the BBS and AH, it would be a shame.
Dont worry about what people say or do, fly n shoot em down.......(you got me a while ago in my pretty little, newly washed n waxed, c47 - was a nice fly up behind me (yep, I was watching...lol...) and bam - tower.
Keep it going, if you killed me in a fair fight, I'd salute ya - mind, I salute those who dont kill me in a fair fight (if I see one starting, I'll try and kill em before it gets too deep into it - that way I cant complain...:D )
This is only a bbs (a good one, but still a bbs) and should be treated as such. Whilst arguments happen, even heated ones, they are only words and peoples perceptions are based on words - nothing personal.
My 0.000002 whatevers worth..

i pay no attention to who shoots me down, keeping track of all those names would be too much work.

I'm a sore loser whenever we play PHASE 10. If you like cards check out this game because it is GREAT!
It's alot like Gin but easier to learn. Anywho, we shuffle and shuffle and no matter what, when we play with my mother in law she allways seems to lay down on her first hand. This absolutly infuriates me.....this old woman with glasses that cant hear and doesnt have all her senses as it is freakin winning hand after hand on the draw. GRRRRR!
anyhow, if your looking for a fun card game to play with the family check it out, the set is only a couple of bucks at wall mart.

It depends...Talking Battleship? Or Original.

The electronic battleship is crap. Original rocks ~ that's the one we were playing.
Also, wooden tiles for scrabble are waaaay better than the plastic crap.

I have the original battleship. You should get your sons on an AH battleship...you could setup LAN play with a CV map. :)

I'm also thinking of buying the new electronic version of monopoly. It includes a swipe card to deduct funds and such. My wife has a tenacity to cheat when she's the banker.
BUT, phase 10 has been an awsome improvment to our line up of family games. I got real burned out on YATZEE

LOL about your wife being the banker. It would do wonders in our house to use the electronic one, but I won't buy it. Half the fun is flipping through & taking half an hour to count your money in front of your losing opponent. :lol
we like mancala & connect 4 as well. i used to like stratego, but can't find a store around here with the original ~ all they sell now are Harry Potter stratego, or Lord of the Rings Stratego ~ those versions suck.

True that. To be completly honest the wife and I cheat when we have friends over too. I don't like it but the Marine in me says "cheat to win and win often" so I usually go with it LOL. ;)
However with normal house play I think it definatly does alot to level the playing field.

Hey, if you go to the 'doll house' section of Hobby Lobby or Michaels ~ get the dice that goes along with the doll house accessories. Get 5 or 6 handheld magnifying glasses & try yatzee that way. :)
Or get the goofy giant fuzzy dice from a car store & use those.

Last time I went to a public pool, some kid crapped on the concrete next to the water. The genius girl working there scooped it up with a plastic doggy crap shovel and dumped it into a trash can.
Then she washed it off by dipping the shovel into the pool where everyone was.
Needless to say, I never went back there again.

Oh, here is the perfect yatzee dice :)

There are women in AH that I see have no problems such as this. There are also men in AH.......then there are personas.
Oh.......and I almost forgot.....a few Chigga Flickas. :)Same as on the BBS.
Aces High has ceased to be a co-ed friendly environment, in my opinion.
We hold no such grudge against the Rooks. :D
Jackal1 was a real bastard to me and what should I have expected? .
So ...who wins the bastard contest.....me or Dale?
challanging guys like that
I`m not a guy like that . I am a card carrying
one of them , leaning to the side of one of those types.
I pissed Jackal1 off being uppity and he let me have it with both barrels.
First off, once again, Jackal1 didn`t get pissed off at you are anyone.
You made the same statement in the other thread only you used the term uppity female.
As I told you then, I certainly don`t view you as uppity or as and uppity female. Persona I think would fit. Not an uppity persona mind you..just a persona.
I hold no ill will towards Jackal1
Well, that`s good news. Of course I don`t know what you would hold ill will against me for other than having an opinion that differs with the one expressed. Certainly no ill will here from me.......whoever you are.
Personas are a dime a dozen here. Most don`t mean anything. Take for example, I am not really Carlos. :) There have been some pretty good trolls here also. Some are quite entertaining, some are more just lame. It`s a BBS, just like most of them on the internet with the one exception being that there seems to be a higher percentage of really good folks here as a whole.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now as for the sore loser thingy...........let me just say that I refuse to play chess anymore with a certain, unnamed female family member.

Innocent. pfft. That kid's a cheater. He sunk ALL FIVE of my ships with a grand total of FOUR misses. And I only had one lousy hit the entire game ~ just before my last ship was sunk. I never saw anything like it.... little **** beat the crap out of me.
Seriously though, I'm sorry to see you go Tigress. I sent you my email address early on by PM. Drop a line from time to time to say howdy.:)
