Title: B4Buster
Post by: xbrit on April 16, 2009, 02:09:38 PM
Well everyone is very quick to complain about standards of game play so let me congratulate B4Buster for showing true class today.
I had just logged on and noticed one of the bases flashing so upped my usual Spit8, as I'm rolling I see this higher P38 so I am waiting for one of two things. One, he uses his advantage for the quick take down, Two, he augers in trying to do One.
Instead I see over Ch200 B4Buster saying for the spit at that base to get some alt for a fair fight, slightly knowing B4B I climbed out not even watching for his plane because I knew I could trust what he said. When I got to  similar altitude B4B came into my field of vision on or about 6k away and slow turned into me, I turned nose in to show I had seen him and then the fight was on.
I had the better merge on this occasion but I failed to take advantage of it and soon he was in the better position and didn't make the same mistake I did. I'm not saying it was a great fight but it was fun even though I went down in pieces.
Just wanted to say <S> B4B good sportsmanship.

 :rock  I think some of the AvA code has affected B4Buster's judgment.   :D  Just kidding, but  I had a similar experience with aka.  I noticed an F4U taking apart some of my countrymen.  I decided not to be the 3rd attacker, but after he dispatched with the other 2, I turned in towards and was able to gain on him.  Then I noticed he was headed home to his fleet, and me into ACK  :eek:.   He turned away from his fleet as I decided to let him land and look for other fights.  On channel 200 he told me to come back and play.  :t We were able to make several good passes at each other and away from puffy ack from his fleet.  The end result was the same for me as the other 2 countrymen, but was worth the price of admission.

There!  That is why we have 200 enabled.  Trumps all of the politically incorrectness it harbors.

The biggest thing this game is missing is just that.

Good sportsmanship!  :salute

Buster is a real fighter jock and a very good stick, I'm a bit surprised you got the first merge.

We at TFC are quite proud of the little nipper and will continue to coax him to greatness, however he is resisting old fart indoctrination somewhat.

brit...the fight wasn't terribly long like you mentioned but it definately got the adrenaline going...you're always a class act yourself xbrit.

Thanks for the kind words gents...when I saw my name as one of the topics I wasn't sure what I got myself into  :lol  :salute

the lovely AvA code at its best and yet people hate it  :aok

finding this in the AvA is few and far between. In fact the original CT died because people stopped flying to the code. not knocking the AvA per se but to call it the "AvA code" is ludicrous.

B4 is a class act and a fun fight :aok :salute

Every fight I have had with B4Buster has been a good match, fair on both accounts.  Sometimes I have won but usually I lose.  He is a great stick and a good man <BIG SALUTE>

For the past few years people did go by a code but in the last year or so the AvA staff have been trying to get more numbers in there by catering to "MA style" gameplay. Since then dweeby gameplay skyrocketed, and now its very hard to find a fun fight without getting picked or HOed.

Would have been Midway, so in the last 6 months. Fights ended up at roughly 3 to 1 and mostly right over the island. As I said my comment was not meant as an attack on the AvA but a comment on any consideration that the AvA was either the origination of "the code" or really flies by it as an arena.

humble....come to the AvA next thursday during blitzekrieg. Last night was in my mind a very fun night for both sides. We topped at 35+ players and had very many nice little furbals over Guadelcanel area. Just try it out.

Only just really noticed this response, sorry to surprise you like that but we are allowed to fight back. Nice though I came here to compliment your Squaddie and you feel the need to try a put down. Shame used to have respect for your Squad as a whole now it's down to individuals.

I think you misunderstand, I was talking about Busters merge being so good, I have yet to beat him in it, was not referring to your skills.

xbrit kicked my butt on the merge...I usually don't have a problem beating Spits on the intial immel in my 38 but he must have throttled down or was not going as fast as I thought because he pulled inside of me. I knew whoever the spit was, was a decent stick because he didn't go for the HO on the merge...he nosed down and went for the angle. Took a few tricks to turn the tables on him...was a great fight.

shamus definately didn't mean anything by that comment xbrit, I'm sure you know he's a great guy. Bodhi and I are the only ***holes in the squad  :lol
