Title: Operation Midway
Post by: nrshida on January 03, 2013, 06:43:45 PM
Inspired by continual bragging, and the unwillingness of a certain personage of conspicuous presence to go to the DA, I have decided to hunt said varmint in the MA in his favourite plane with the high hopes of illustrating the difference between ACM and AirQuakeManeouvres.

This necessitates me flying an aircraft which Aces High cultural values have formerly prevented my from flying (even though I have more cultural right to do so than most): the Spitfire Mark VIII.

I must confess I have no clue where to start with fuel loads, convergence settings trim and so forth. I did duel the Spitfire Mark IX occasionally when training with The Few and I know I have trouble especially with the Spitfire's Hispanos, being so used as I am to the Japanese Ho-5 cannons.

Does anyone have advice for me, especially with the usual setting up issues that experience usually teaches and most especially advice regarding shooting?

Many thanks in advance.  :salute

Are you sure you want to engage in psychological warfare with me Midway? Have you considered the word: 'adrenalin'?

You aren't getting your HO shot. For you however, I will employ my Apache gunnery, a gunnery technique which I reserve for especially spiteful varmints.

LOL, I believe he was good-naturedly mocking your verbiage, it's sounding pretty midwayish... I think using "maligned" would have slipped by if you hadn't added the owlishly sounding "Heads must roll" followed up with Vilkas' avatar after it. This pattern of communication has been usurped and cheapened by its connection to despicable internet trolls who make so many uncomfortable with their non-consensual juvenile banality.

He ought to beat me resoundingly. I have about 3 hours total in the Spit8 and he has how many last month alone, 250? His Hispano gunnery is very good and we know he's going to take every shot he gets.

Still, I would be prepared to place a bet though. Shall we fight for forum accounts Midway, overall loser deletes their forum account?

 All planes are the same in theory. It should only take you a few fights to get acquainted with any new plane if you have the basic ability. I wasn't suggesting he would beat you resoundingly, just that you may be challenged. The last time I fought midway was in the MA in a quiet corner. We dueled it out about 15 times and I found that he was very keen to wait for a good shot, never did we have a ho situation where both had a gun solution and one opened fire.

Because bushido requires it.  The Japanese have known for centuries that eventually, people who act in a jack-assed manner only respond to brutal beatings for their own good.  Midway should think of his arse whooping as a medically necessary frontal labotomy.  Good for the patient (Midway)good for his neighborhood(all of us)

You can teach the cockroach to "sit", just stomp on it, and you teach them to "stay" at the same time.  This also seems appropriate to this subject.

He even falsely cries "HO" when he had no guns on my mighty Spitfire and I dispatched him with due haste. :rolleyes:

I'm not smack talking, I'm calling you a worthless idiot!  You're not even original, there have been many others much like you in the past, sheepish little worthless trolls that lean towards the panty wearing!  :aok

as far as the "falsely calling HO"  give it a break lil boy, you suck so bad a HO is all you will ever get on me, be proud of it, wear along with your panties like a badge!!!  :aok

What midways HOs do for him is make others have to avoid it throwing off their ACM in the fight. All of the good sticks almost have to re learn new tactics just to avoid the HO, which he is good at.

No no, not underestimating at all. I know shida is a top shelf stick. I think it will be the same in the spit8 duels. Shida claims no experience. Within a few fights I think that deficit will have narrowed. That was the original context of my quote if you read back to why I posted it.

I don't believe either pilot will have an easy fight.

But I fought him many times over and he didn't ho at all. Perspective is a powerful component in disagreements of fact.

He will have no problems with killing midway at will.

Debrody's film was the most severe spankeration session I have ever witnessed in Aces High by a considerable margin. Debrody simply flew the socks off Midway and it is a perfect proof of everything the Midway 'dark side' club have been saying all along. It was frankly embarrassing to watch especially the loss of control of an aircraft he has so many hours in. I had to look away several times. Under pressure he has no recourse and once his energy has run out, and it runs out very quickly as he cuts power trying to lean on his gunnery for those face-shots, he is a target drone.

Midway's approach to flying is dishonest to himself and lazy. He has taken the shortest possible route between his starting point and the result-focussed cheap shot seemingly in order to 'force' others to accept that he is good with his 'I owned you' b/s. I do not know why he needs to do this but his need is obviously great. He has now trapped himself on two counts: he cannot give up the Spitfire and his one trick face-shooting technique because he would get no results at all and his insecurity needs that. Secondly he does not have the analytical equipment nor the insight nor the humility to develop his flying himself and no one will teach him anything now because he's not a nice man, has no integrity and is egotistical. Well maybe Bruv119 might if he was in a bad mood and really wanted to troll the community by proxy.

Midway and I have irreconcilable differences in philosophies. I find his constant bragging offensive, objectionable and disrespectful to others. I thought by removing the variable of the aircraft it would demonstrate to him that his attitude is unfounded and distorted but realistically Debrody already did an excellent job of that and Midway's thick layer of ego protection still precludes his accepting it, publicly anyway.

The irony of having to bear a surface resemblance to Midway in order to demonstrate my point has not escaped me.


Shida, to play with a fool, you have to stoop to a fool's level... do you really want to go there?  I've seen him in action, he's not even worth the time to embarrass him... just sayin!  :aok

Very, very few, if any. You for instance enjoy being considered a sage of sorts with an ability to make good humour. Two commendable attributes for our little community and a reputation you have incubated using intelligence and social prowess.

Midway enjoys being considered a PITA verbally and also enjoys building his reputation as someone who wants to fly better all the time and wants to fight. Another commendable attribute to add to our little community....well....the second bit anyhow.

The point I'm making is that just because you enjoy your reputation through what you consider to be the correct method of gaining a reputation does not mean that a more honest, some might say childishly readable, approach is wrong.

Everything any human does at any point is always to some extend a self serving action, no matter if it is making the community laugh or proclaiming one's greatness at cartoon aircraftability.

I have to agree with Batfink and SR. Even engaging in this sort of action against Midway you have lost a little.  

IMO Midway is all about the attention if you give or acknowledge anything he says then he wins.  Since he refused any sort of training ages ago I have just run with the amusement of how easily he can wind people up.  

Also saying you don't fly a spit because the AH "fraternity" said it isn't cool and flying an even better plane in the ki-84 and claiming some sort or morale high ground is even more high school and backwards than Midway himself.  

Fly what you want, when you want, squelch people you do not want to associate with and do your best to enjoy it.  Everything else is just un-necessary drama and if you can't do that step away from the keyboard.

I have cultivated nothing. If I have a reputation on these boards then it is entirely incidental. This is the way I am in real life too I'm just being myself. Sometimes I actually think I must be an annoying over-moralistic PITA myself, when I read back some of the things I type. Especially on a game forum which seems to attract and amplify the especially naughty / damaged ones. I do not enjoy my reputation nor benefit from it. Actually I frequently find the way I am to be rather costly and resent the implication that I am manipulative and less than honest.



Everything any human does at any point is always to some extend a self serving action, no matter if it is making the community laugh or proclaiming one's greatness at cartoon aircraftability.

I disagree. You verbally negate or devalue altruism or benevolence and yet with actions you are a trainer yourself. I do not believe I have proclaimed my greatness anywhere and this is not the thrust of my activities. You do not know my motivations for playing AH so please do not project your experiences or values onto me.



I have to agree with Batfink and SR. Even engaging in this sort of action against Midway you have lost a little.  

Lost a little what exactly? Action against Midway?  :rolleyes: He is an aggravating, ankle biting, yapping, vitriolic lapdog and when someone turns round to bite him back they are the nasty one. This situation is too absurd.


IMO Midway is all about the attention if you give or acknowledge anything he says then he wins.  

Yes I agree, now.


Since he refused any sort of training ages ago I have just run with the amusement of how easily he can wind people up.  

I have never understood and do not agree that someone who's principal activity is to be disrespectful and to aggravate others has value and merit.


Also saying you don't fly a spit because the AH "fraternity" said it isn't cool and flying an even better plane in the ki-84 and claiming some sort or morale high ground is even more high school and backwards than Midway himself.  

Well well well. This endeavour certainly has been meritorious to smoke out an undiluted opinion from you Bruv.

However you've misunderstood. I'm not berating Midway for his plane choice or claiming any morale high ground. My argument is simply that Midway exploits two of the Spitfire's outstanding attributes against every other aircraft then dishonestly claims that it is due to his fighting 'prowess'.

Regarding the reputation of the Spitfire you'd better take that up with the community. Perhaps asserting that the Ki-84 is an even better (lamer you mean?) aeroplane will help your cause.


Fly what you want, when you want, squelch people you do not want to associate with and do your best to enjoy it.  Everything else is just un-necessary drama and if you can't do that step away from the keyboard.

Excellent advice.  :salute

 You have taken offence and not looked deeper into what my meaning is. When you do anything it is because it is what you want to do. Even acts of benevolence are self serving as they make you feel good for being benevolent. Why do you start a whole thread or comment in a thread with the intention of making others laugh? Firstly to spread joy and amusement to others, granted. But there is also a part of yourself that enjoys people thinking you made them laugh. Otherwise you would not care to do it in the first place.
 I have not suggested you are manipulative or less than honest. I have suggested that the almost subconscious enjoyment you receive by people thinking you are funny or wise is a more intelligent and shielded form of the far more blatant and honest bragging and hoping for acknowledgement. It is not intentionaly more honest than a more refined form of social intergration and reputation building, it just is so by default. It is the same as when a baby wants feeding it just screams till it gets what it wants. There is no eloquence in the demand yet it is no different from the adult stating 'I'm awefully hungry you know, is there anything good to eat? If it's not too much trouble.'

Your meaning is not core to this discussion. I'm not going to engage in a pedantic debate over what proportion of self / selfishness constitutes altruism. When taken to the extreme then of course there is no such thing as pure altruism (not that beyond a certain practical threshold it actually matters). If you wish to drag this into this backwater of the discussion and win by playing definitions in order to dismiss all of my other points then congratulations, I concede your victory.

I am offended when people are implying I am being something other than myself or being sly or conspiring:

a reputation you have incubated using intelligence and social prowess.

But ultimately you can think what you want, that's up to you.


Regardless my underlying point has been that I believe players should interact both here and in the game with a minimum level of civility and mutual respect commensurate to that which real world social interaction demands. This has always been my philosophy although it is rapidly and increasingly becoming clear how forlorn this hope is. This is clearly rapidly becoming a forum which belongs to the griefers & trolls so perhaps as I am apparently now the anomoly here myself I should be the one to withdraw.

Since he refused any sort of training ages ago I have just run with the amusement of how easily he can wind people up.  
...

Actually I've spend hundreds, if not thousands, of hours in the DA/TA being trained and helped by many great pilots... including nrshida, Yenny, Debrody, SFOX, batfinkV, morfiend, grizz, fester, pervert, mickyd, and many others.  :)

All very much appreciated and mostly fun too... although disappointing, at times, because I couldn't "get" what some were trying to teach.  I did/do try to learn though... very hard. :aok
That's why I can now win most 1v1s and often 2v1s, and occasional 3v1s. :banana:

The learning curve was steep, but I've climb most of what I think I can - so far.  Now, I'm stuck on a plateau that I realized further training/help is just wasting the time of the trainer. :frown:

I don't like wasting people's time that want to teach something which I can't seem to get.  Learning how to beat the remaining 5% of pilots, like you, Bruv, appears out of reach and as you know extremely difficult.  Many have tried to teach me to go further, yet I seem to absorb very little now. :confused:

I've reached the point of diminishing returns vs effort expended on the part of trainers and will have to wait for a light bulb to come on before I can go further.  I'll know it when I can beat Debrody, you, Redbull, etc with substantial frequency in the same aeroplanes. :O

It may never happen, but I certainly haven't stopped trying to win nor do I avoid fun fights no matter how embarrassing they may be for me. :bhead

Trainers deserve the reward of the student learning. :old:

I can't, for now, seem to learn more, but can fight as hard as I can... and win against many, often. :)

One must come to terms with their reality if they find it unrealistic to change it, for a period of time. :old:

You might think I've given up, but that is actually far from true.  If I did, I wouldn't be fighting daily even when muted, occasionally unjustly, for weeks.  

I hope to figure out what allows you to beat me so easily...and it's this hardest last bit I need to "get"... and much training has not helped me with it, but it's still fun trying to win. :)

Batfink makes solid points.  We're all selfishly motivated to different degrees.  We all like to be praised and recognized. Although we would like it to not be the chief motivator, for some it is.  The best example I can think of is how you feel when someone tells you you're good at something.  It doesn't make you feel bad, or neutral... it makes you feel good.  I personally have other motivations for wanting to be good at this game (all pretty much selfish though), but I try not to be blatant about it.  Politeness and my personality type dictate I suppress these feelings, but they're still there.

As for who, I'd rather play the game with absurdly silly characters than guys who take themselves too seriously.  The constant fussing, fighting, and drama is to be avoided, imo.  Who is just playing the character he's invented to gain notoriety.  News flash - it worked.  Now don't get me wrong, he takes his schtick too far sometimes, but overall he's just a guy you can log on and laugh at.  I think he intends for this to happen, so I do not feel guilty about it at all.   :angel:   

That said, I hope Operation Midway is a success.  I hope he gets pwn'd repeatedly.  Then I hope he comes on the boards and displays his usually stellar mental gymnastics so I can laugh.  I do not like or watch reality TV.  This is the only guilty pleasure I have.  Please, continue.

BatfinkV is more correct than you want to accept.  If you think about it honestly and without the name calling and disparaging comments, you might see the light again - that I saw shinning so bright early on in you. :aok

:huh

There once was a pilot named Shane,
my mighty Spitfire his LA7 couldn't tame.

I took him down 1v1 four times in a row
In the same sortie as he and I both know.

Landed those victories with a feeling so sweet,
For Shane though, the pain of that day, still it runs deep.
:ahand

Nuff said. :)

Oh, come back Middy, come back!
Ho dweeb gonna be wasting your time, time, time....

Holy crap that was hilarious! You made my day with that one...  :cheers:

And Shida, why are you still feeding this pathetic troll? This entire thread is just giving the moron attention, which is what he craves, even if it is negative attention.

I remember a discussion in a marketing class in college, some 20 years ago, relating to the psychology used in advertising. The question was something along the lines of "why would a company produce a purposefully annoying and grating advertisement for their product that produced a negative response from the audience?" The reason was that whether good or bad, the listener/viewer would remember the product just because the ad was so offensive... and that's all they were going for, was to just get noticed from amongst the thousands of other products that the audience would be exposed to.

And as such, so it is with MidFail. The fact that he has trolled you into a thread all about him... he revels in it. I have been in the past where you now find yourself... and then I finally took someone else's advice, and now as a matter of standard practice, I squelch him immediately upon logging in to the game. He is set to ignore here on the bbs, so all I see of his stupid babble is:

This thread is a mess!



My balls itch





JUGgler

One day a long time ago there was a -25.  This JUG was traveling from 34 to 56 after a time of fighting, frolicking amongst the enemy.  The little -25 was tired from firing accurate shots and dancing amongst the turny birds but happy.  Much to his surprise, off in the distance he noticed a dot.  As the dot grew larger and larger it became red with a Spitfire listed underneath the red dot.  Its name was Midway.  The little red Spitfire introduced itself by by trying to shoot the little -25 in his face.  The -25 became sad and turned excellently with the little retarded Spitfire and killed it....5 times in a row.  The end.  

(Changeup has the video because the little -25 wanted no help so sad Changeup had to watch his happen while laughing until his anus burst with poo in his pants)

MORAL - If you plan on grabbing hold of JUG, you best be ready to get slapped.

Nope, you did not listen to my, nor anyone elses advice - your step on the easy way destinated where you arrived. The window is now closed, no way back.
Your ACM is not bad but stagnating, isnt improving anymore. The fantasy is absolutely lacking from your flying, you are extremely predictable, heck, how else could i pull the same trick on you like 20 times in 2 days?
Regardless of what you say, how you want to cheat yourself or everyone else, the facts prove me, not you.

Reaper may not be an ACM god, true. But i have fought him quite a few times, mostly lost, maybe because he was in a hurricane and me in a g6. But i dont care, do you know why? Because both of us got what we were pedalling for: an enjoyable fight. There wasnt any braggage on the BBS, nor on 200 that he utterly owned me - actually, he did - nor whinage about anything.

That is the trick I still need to learn.  It is the one thing you did, Bruv does, Fester does, Grizz does, etc... that gets you around on me so fast. You admit it is the same trick each time! :joystick:


That is the secret I have not learned, films haven't shown me, and I have been unable to get from those trying to help.  It's the 5th dimension of flying I can't see...yet. :frown:


Consider yourself lucky knowing it... I intend to figure it out, one day, and you will then too go down often to my mighty Spitfire.  :joystick:

 :salute My friend, I remember those fights, they were fun. IIRC was you and another 109 at one time, and I thought I was done for.

What MidFail won't tell you is that yes, although he did get a good shot in on me (that I congratulated him for and saluted him for), he would not come back and try to repeat it. He said he was going to "savor it" and refused to come back, knowing that he wouldn't get a second one with me having crawled out of the Spitfire.

To his credit, though, he did finally fight me a few weeks later. He did go 0 for 18.

He finally manned up and get into a plane that neither he nor I had any experience in at the time, for a nice even fight, the I-16. and I owned him mercilessly.

I have personally never seen him out of the Spitfire since, and that's probably a good thing for him that he stay in his trainer.

That one trick is not the line between the '5% and 95%' for you, you are far, far, faaaar from the 5% - being in the top '5%' in the game takes a lot more than just gunnery and ACM, you need many more things that you do not possess, and it is questionable as to whether you ever will.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I see another Spit8 over there in the MA...

Yes, you did, tyvm!  :salute

Midway, when i got you that many times, i was NOT pullling anything advanced (just like the film shows it), for two reasons:
-1: i was missing an aileron therefor i could not pull my favourite vertical tailwhip/roll maneuver
-2: i did not have to, because you do not know how to turn a spitfire besides the chop throttle - shoot the face on second merge thing.

In fact, you are only trying to annoy Shane for an unknown reason, by continously repeating something highly unfair and taking false consequentions. You might get my 190/109 in your spit, coming from alt or doing continous circles without a single reversal, be happy with that, but when it comes donw to an equal situation, you lose, and you do it epicly. Against anyone else who is a bit better than the average.
I still hold my bet that i could shoot you down 100/100 in 190 vs 190 formal duels.

....

In fact, you are only trying to annoy Shane for an unknown reason, by continously repeating something highly unfair and taking false consequentions....

Therefore you dont have any right to belittle anyone here. Hypocricy cant fool us anymore.


Off the mark also.  Am not belittling Shane... nor were the fights highly unfair, unless you think the mighty Spitfire vs the LA7 is somehow highly unfair. :rolleyes:

Fact is Shane wins often in his LA7, like I said... but I also have dispatched his LA7 with substantial frequency as demonstrated by the four in a row landed, as just one example.   :)

He does claim to have "given" me one, I suppose out of some kind of pity or something, which I find hard to believe because the fights were difficult and I won all four as I have won many other times.  Shane is very good, that is true though. :aok

I have also fought Shane's Spitfire and won a significant percentage of those 1v1s, although he does quickly jump back into the LA7 due to experience with it.

There is no hypocrisy that I'm aware of either.

In the MA you can't really talk "1v1" since so many variables, so we'll just have to go with the raw nbrs.


LA7 v Midway spits (all flavors):    103 - 53 my favor.
Spit v Spit (all flavors):   19 -13 my favor.
Spit8 v Spit8:  3 - 0 my favor.
Spit9 v Spit9: 13 - 11 (this is the closest you come in any type.)
Spit16 v Spit16: 2 - 1 my favor.
Spit 14 v Spit9: 1 - 1 break even.

My La7/Spits vs your Spits:  122 - 66, which comes out to  65% - 35%  or just a little over 1/3rd of the time are you able to make something happen - of course the % would drop if you take out the times you ganged, or jumped me slow or camped the airfields, right?  :aok  So a quarter sounds about right, maybe, and this doesn't include the other plane types we've ran into each other in.

I basically wrote you off when you confirmed your unwilingness to actually try to improve.  :old: :joystick: :airplane:

I'm in Bruv's camp on this - it amuses me how others let you get under their skin and in their heads. This is only area you have some acknowledgement from me for being somewwhat good in, lol.  :aok

:O Awesome!  Thank you for putting this together.  :rock

It's good to know my perspective was/is correct.  In your disclaimer portion though, you would also have to exclude the various picks, etc... that you did of me.  Given that I'm easier to pick (due to weak SA), that would probably work the percentages more in my favor, but I'll go with 35% to 40% of the time, I win. :D

Note that what I said earlier still stands... I can beat you with substantial frequency, as you've proven (and as I demonstrated landing your scalp four in a row in the same sortie), but it's impossible for me to do that with Bruv and other top 5% pilots... because they know and do something in a dimension of flying I do not yet understand and that I don't see you do either....  ergo, my signficant victory percentages on you.  :ahand

You also aren't including the time I upped an LA7 and downed you in your own ride with due haste. :ahand

It's good when the numbers prove one's perspective is accurate and one's statements are indeed closer to fact than fantasy. :old:

Fact is, Shane, if you meet me 1 v 1, there is a substantial probability that I land and you don't. :banana:

Although it's not a certainty or majority of the time -- yet. :)

Let those that disparage my piloting skills be awed by the facts as presented. :old:

I'm a good pilot!  It's now proven!  ... and I've even improved since Shane's last tour.  :D

You HO all the time, You HO on second merge....one reason for people to disparage your flying skills.


I'll let others finish the list....HO on second merge is a low tactic, not a high and mighty skill. I made a thread about this years ago.

The difference between HO on first merge and second is the ability to avoid said HO on second merge dramatically decreases because of less E and less time to react due to close proximity of the planes.

What it also does is throws off what a person would normally do during merge.......if they go vertical to avoid...give YOU shot....they wait till after avoiding it...they lose their angles

see what I'm getting at?

The reason you find those "5%" pilots more difficult is very simple - we, you and I,  had very little if any past. You had a much closer association in your AH time with those mentioned. You've simply let them to take up residence in your head.

One big(ger) factor that you seemingly overlook is my gunnery % compared to the others. If I had anywhere near that kind of aim (rudder pedals would greatly help tyvm, pls) in a lot of our encounters you've have died a lot faster, increasing that feeling of mssing some 5% mystic fph thing. That 5% is not so much acm as it is gunnery. One must possess a certain amount of both talent and skill to achieve 5%ness. I've never claimed or considered myself to be in the top 5% - but I've always felt squarely in the top ten <--- that's confidence, but I have a substantial reputation in backing it up.  :aok

The biggest barrier you face is yourself.  :old:

That is more true in the past than in the present, although, you are correct, I have HOed with substantial frequency, however I have also not HOed with substantial frequency as evidenced by the three eyewitnessed quotes presented involving a substantial number of fights. :)

My point is I don't "always" HO as many claim.  Just because I give a good HO, on occasion, and tend to win my HOs, I believe my reputation as "always" HOing is substantially exaggerated, again as evidenced by the three well respected pilots quoted previously.  And Shane, with you as well, I have not HOed you with with far more frequency than I have HO'ed you, if you recall correctly. :aok

Of course this applies to me as well, so I think we, again, cancel each other out on this aspect of our fights. :)

As far as you saying the thing I'm seeing from the 5%'ers is explained by their gunnery, that is not correct.  

It's how quickly Bruv can get on my six and shoot BBs at me as if I'm a toy that I see as the missing aspect of my flying which he and others have.  :airplane:

Debrody admitted previously: "I use the same trick on you 20 times in 2 days" evidencing again there is an aspect to flying he comprehends that I don't yet, but I see him winning because of it.  It's not gunnery. :frown:

Since I don't see you doing it and I don't do it, it's not possible for either of us to explain it since that would be analogous to the blind leading the blind. :confused:

PS: When I figure it out, I will explain it to you and you'll know I have it figured out when I down Bruv, pervert, and Debrody with substantial frequency in the same aeroplane. :aok

I haven't encountered Bruv enough, but I know the move you're describing - it's very difficult to defend against because it's a very well set trap/move.  They are exploiting a weakness that *you* possess, made easier when they know it's you when you're fairly predictable. Post a sample film and someone like batfink or a trainer or even myself can show you exactly where you lost those encounters.

Have you even ever simply asked Bruv, wtf did you just dio and how do I do/defend it? Maybe you have - in any case you're still answerless, and that goes back to the issue you being self-limiting. I've never spent much time beyond our initial encounters in trying to actually get you to improve - you've rejected so many offers and suggestions from so many people that, well...

It's almost like you're proving the theory that an infinity amount of monkeys banging away on a keyboard will produce a masterpiece.  Shakespeare produced regularly and contributed substantially to culture.

The problem, Shane, is that I can't comprehend what they are saying.  It has to do with E and angles.  Debrody has a film of him doing it half a dozen times to me the other day.  Bruv almost always does it... it's amazing to watch and nothing I can do about it... it's like my aeroplane is stuck in concrete and they do gymnastics on me.  Grizz tried to explain it...in the DA with dozens of fights.  I got nothing out of it.  It's like another language to me still. :bhead

Pervert once told me it has to do with E and angles.  I can't comprehend it... I've tried many times.  :confused:

Fester does it and did it to me about a 100 times in the DA and I lost every time.  It's about knowing certain cornerring speeds / E states / angles... but I can't do it nor explain it.  

It's like this three dimensional person talking to someone in flat land. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWyTxCsIXE4 :uhoh

I don't want to ask any more or go to the DA/TA and be shown how to do this because after hundreds of times trying I just can't comprehend what they are saying or doing... yet.  I think I have to wait several months and maybe a light bulb will come on. :pray

The SEC would disagree... 5% of stock ownership is considered "substantial."  It's a very subjective word, entirely dependant upon context.

This being Aces High, the SEC has nothing to do with it.  We're talking aeroplane fights... and winning 35% or more is not just getting your licks in... it's winning a "substantial" number of times.  Try and belittle it... but you know truth if you open your mind to it.  Meet me 1 v 1 and you have a good chance of getting towerred while I go land my undamaged aeroplane as I have already proven to you. :ahand

No. When I meet you I only have to worry about being towered a fraction of the time. Not even close to 50-50. You only win a minority of our encounters.

All subjective in the absence of defining context. Even the opinions that I'm a much better pilot than you is subjective.

122 - 66 is entirely objective, quantifiable if you will. Everything else is just a Freudian dance. I  find your choice of "substantial" to be revealing.

So... take another look at my sigs... then have a look at my location.  You play chess?  :noid

122 to 66 = 35% = substantial.  Nuff said. :ahand

Aces High is far more fun and challenging than chess, especially when pwning the likes of Shane. :old:
Speaking from experience of said substantial pwning activity. :old:
35% is closer to 50% than 15%. :old:
Be worried, Shane.... :old:

Now, I suspect when it says "who shot you down"... the look on their faces is priceless.  :D

Can't possibly compare to the look on your face when you do Midway:

(http://www.brandwatch.com/wp-content/uploads/brandwatch/troll.jpg)


What I find incredible about Midway is his capacity to manipulate every situation in his perception to engineer a win for himself out of it.

For example:-

Debrody spanks him in his own aeroplane so badly that the red will never come off his arse. His response: "Debrody is a litte better than me, for now, I will inevitably figure out that one trick he does eventually though and then I will pwn everyone, I win".

Midway shoots down another player with a superior aeroplane occasionally regardless of circumstance (probably with an unsporting face-shot) His response: "I can pwn them at will, because 30% is a substantial amount, almost exactly the same as 90%, I win".

Players complain about his sportsmanship on 200 or here on the forum. His resonse: "I outflew them with my flying prowess, now they are crying because I am better than them and I have forced them to face it, I win".

Players criticise him in response to his unfounded bragging. His response: "I can shoot those players down on occassion too in the MA in dissimilar aircraft (which equals: I pwn them), therefore their criticism can be safely dismissed, Midway > said player, I win".

Midway implies disdain at every turn but just keeps it short of explicit insulting adhering to the letter of the rules, other players respond with insulting remarks. His response: "They are sore losers and my irritating them is further evidence of me getting better, I win".


It just goes on and on... The baseline is whatever you do, he wins.


I'm personally tired of Midway boorishly demanding we all accept his b/s distorted view of reality while refusing to receive anyone else's views in return. You cannot reasonably interact with an unreasonable person. This runs to the point of detracting now from my enjoyment of this game and my personal development. So I have decided to take the advice of several other players. I'm going to squelch him  :banana:


This does unfortunately mean I'm going to have the last word, but oh well:-


Midway,

You have to be the most aggravating and self-important, egotistical yet insecure person I have ever encountered.

Your M.O. hasn't changed one bit since I encountered you at the furball lake when you first got here, HOing and picking everything that flew into your gunsight, where I tried to encourage you to pursue the path of ACM and to prioritise development above results. You rejected this path and chose another, a path which I consider less honest, more lazy and purely results-focussed. The only thing which has progressed massively is your smack talk, which is now almost a constant passive-aggressive stream.

Your 'game' seems to be largely spiteful and bullying-based and I'm frankly surprised HTC lets you troll their forum with such rampant freedom. Perhaps they think you are good for business.

The level you have currently attained, and which you say you are stuck on is not a plateau. This is as far as you go with ACM by yourself. You do not have the mental faculty to go further. In the what? Two years you've been here you've actually condensed something like seven years of a regular player's hours into this game. If concentrated hours translated directly into capability then you would have become Bruv119's FPH by now.

Your ACM is average at best, below average across most of the spectrum with maybe two or three narrow spikes which bring you 99% of your results. Your own ego and rather disturbing needs have brought you to this inescapable place. Your ambition here will I believe be frustrated by something I mentioned to you earlier: the Red Queen Hypothesis. You just can't see this yet, so little vision have you.

I suspect I now know who and what you are, why you have so much time to play and why this game has become everything to you. There really only is one logical explanation. Yet I have no sympathy for you. We always have choices, as long as we are alive we have choices, and your choices have rather made your own bed here... Keep swimming  ;)


Believe it or not I actually enjoy fighting you regardless of who wins or loses (another concept which is way beyond your grasp) and look forward to future encounters with your entropic brown Spitfire. So aggressive and without any care for sportsmanship do you fly and shoot that you do encourage your opponents to not be lazy. However this is the extent of the interaction I choose to have with you from this point forward.

I no longer consider anything you say to have any merit or integrity and it is with a great sense of relief that I hereby squelch you both here and in the game.

I can now peacefully return to an activity of which you are demonstrably incapable: quietly and thoughtfully improving my ACM with imagination and without regard to the outcome.


It's customary to wish luck, but let's forgo the usual pleasantries shall we?:-

<Cobblers> Midway.

Meh. Don't be such a Milquetoast. My own take is that squelch is unnecessary, merely convenient.

Aside from that, I'll agree with your assessment of Midway's persona; it was well thought out and presented. I tend to just short-hand stuff, lol.

At the end of the day, Midway is just another in an endless stream of monkeys banging away on the keyboard because in the words of the immortal bard,


To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune,
Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them: to die, to sleep
No more; and by a sleep, to say we end
The Heart-ache, and the thousand Natural shocks
That Flesh is heir to? 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die to sleep,
To sleep, perchance to Dream; Aye, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes Calamity of so long life:
For who would bear the Whips and Scorns of time,
The Oppressor's wrong, the proud man's Contumely,
The pangs of despised Love, the Law’s delay,
The insolence of Office, and the Spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his Quietus make
With a bare Bodkin? Who would Fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered Country, from whose bourn
No Traveller returns, Puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have,
Than fly to others that we know not of.
Thus Conscience does make Cowards of us all,
And thus the Native hue of Resolution
Is sicklied o'er, with the pale cast of Thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment,
With this regard their Currents turn awry,
And lose the name of Action. Soft you now,

Shane is one of the best pilots in Aces High, definately a top 10%'er.  I'd say beating him a little more than a third of the time is quite an accomplishment as is said four in a row victories landed in the same sortie against him. :aok

I don't always brag about how good I am, in fact, I often comment how much I still have to learn to win against the best pilots in the game.  It's actually a bit confusing and disappointing considering the effort I've put into it so far. :confused:

You'd think I would be winning KOTH by now against the likes of Bruv, Pervert, and Debrody... but won't enter yet since I know for certain they would down me with ease.  :frown:

I still have a ways to go to be among the very best and the hill has gotten much steeper. :joystick:

The path to success being long, difficult, rewarding, and likely as satisfying in the end as a Mt. Everest climb.  I bet the view is nice up there for Bruv, pervert, kazaa, and the other TOC winners. :salute :rock

A public service announcement:

The game is to be played, like a movie is to be watched.

Midway is the equivalent of a person yelling comments at the screen in a movie theater. Discussing the validity of his comments, or why he does it is irrelevant and misses the point. Every second spent thinking about the comments, or telling him to shut up, is one more second we are distracted from watching the movie.

It is very shelfish to go to a movie with the intent of getting as many as possible engaged in telling you to shut up. Frankly it's psychotic, anti-social behavior. This behavior frustrates us all and we feel compelled to interveign. But I propose that the noise from all those trying to shut him up only adds to the problem. He will never stop yelling comments at the screen, but yelling at him only generates a new argument, then more jump in, and soon we've missed the whole movie.

Ignore him and the distraction is minimized. I do believe that if ignored, he will eventually go away.

I did go NOMOHO for many weeks and avoid HOing many times as witnessed and documented previously; but, on occasion, the temptation is just too great to not HO, the resulting whines on ch200 too silly not to enjoy, and the feedback from several top pilots that HOing is acceptable every now and then has put me back into the HOing mode, on occasion. :aok

I admit HOing and winning a HO is fun, every now and then... and do not think it detracts from my fighting skills when I avoid said HOing. :)

As I've been told before 90%+ of pilots HO, so I'm not that "out there" as many imply with respect to my HOing. :joystick:

The majority of the time when I HO, I do tend to wait for the other pilot to pull the trigger first... so mine is often just a resulting "back HO". :D

I do have a lot of patience and the need to understand things, but ultimately Midway's lark is pretty pathetic. Despite his claims to the contrary I have been informed that privately he has admitted that he enjoys getting a rise out of people, which seems to be the definition of a troll as far as I can determine. Why HTC don't PNG him is beyond my comprehension, since there seems to be a section in their forum rules about this and it is hard to see what he otherwise contributes.

I must say those little:

Messages are like a piece of black duct tape across the mouth of that character from "Dumb and Dumber" who asks: "Do you want to hear the most annoying sound in the world?" and I recommend everyone give it a try. It is very peaceful and I can immediately feel a change when I approach the game & forum. It's a bit like hitting yourself on the head with a hammer, it feels so good when you stop  :lol

Thanks for posting those instructions Kingpin, I agree this is the best possible outcome for Operation Midway  :aok

You could have done / could do a lot more to influence him or to at least publicly decry his actions, since you seem to be the only one he listens to. I have heard you many times offering a DA session to those who are rude or disrespectful to you including Zack when you get fed up with his banter. Unless you think perhaps subconsciously that Midway provides a useful service. Which is how it appears to me.

I never saw you do much of anything to check his perpetual humping of your ankle.

To improve overall AH Forum quality, all users are able to follow these simple steps:

1) Click “Profile” from the menu tabs at top
2) In the left column under “Modify Profile”, click on “Personal Message Options”
3) In the “Ignorelist” box, add the name(s) you'd like to ignore (i.e. “Midway”)
4) Click “Change Profile” in the bottom right to save your Ignorelist

Enjoy!

p.s.  Shida, I'm glad you realized the best way to deal with a forum-spamming attention-seeking troll like this is simply to ignore them.  If more users adopt that policy as a result of this thread, then the outcome of your "Operation" is actually a success!

I did try long ago, to train and for 200 silence on behalf of the growing community angst but he refused to enter such a bargain.  Midway is entitled to his opinions just like everyone else, who am I to tell him what he can and cannot do.   After all it is as they say his $15.  I don't know how I could possibly have done more to control him, I am not a moderator and I would not .report someone for stating what they believe to be true.

I do admit to calling out the odd Spitfire hater and downing them in their own rides just to show them that basic ACM applies in all planes but that is just tough love and not sinister in any way.

Explain me how midway could be a shade when he logs more hours than the entire squad combined?
And also why would someone make a shade for promotion, when it actually hurts more the squad than helps it?
My opinion is that if midway wouldn't have existed, The Few would be stronger. Because of him most pilots think they are not good enough for the few, while we are just looking for OK sticks playing at euro times. We even tried to get him in the squad so he would shut it.

I wish he'd just go away.

I don't know if I have any credibility with you Nathan, but I was a member of The Few when Midway showed up and can assure you he isn't associated with them despite appearances. I am no longer a member of The Few and have no reason to deceive you either way.



I don't know how I could possibly have done more to control him,

You extend Midway a tolerance that you do not extend to others. If I started outrageously claiming ownership the way he does I would expect you to be telling me to step up to the DA plate and rightly so. Why should he be treated differently than anyone else?

He seems to worship you so perhaps it is difficult for you to be objective.


I do admit to calling out the odd Spitfire hater and downing them in their own rides just to show them that basic ACM applies in all planes but that is just tough love and not sinister in any way.

And yet you criticised me earlier for attempting to extend the same tough love by flying a Spitfire Mark VIII against Midway.

As Nuke says: Midway has done far more damage to The Few than good. How does he promote their squad, with his constant sycophancy to which everyone reacts in the opposite direction?

You don't have to listen to me Nathan, I have shared what I know with you in good faith and without agenda. I cannot go further.

Don't listen to him! We have all been living with this secret for too long and now the truth must be revealed :old:



Midway began as a controlled experiment cooked up from the DNA leavings of lesser trolls in The Few's secret laboratory (previously responsible for such powerful devices as The Mesmotron ®, Bruv's AimBot™ and the invisible stealth fighter technology applied to SirNuke's P51).

However, unknown to his superiors, yarbles had been using the lab's master computer in the dead of night for unsavory activities, causing it to be infected by malware that played havoc with the program controlling the genetic experiment now known as Midway.

The DNA code of the experimental pilot (cobbled together from the painstakingly collected cockpit sweat of certain selected fighter jocks) became badly corrupted, causing a Code Red Level One Full Alert in The Few HQ. Alarms were shrilling, klaxons wailing and really cool red and blue lights were strobing in the hangar as Bruv rushed away from a scheduled in-between-sorties refreshment break to assess the situation, still wearing his flying goggles and leather cap and clasping his mug of tea.

When he got down to the underground bunker where the lab is located and saw the warning lights on the tank containing the classified experimental subject, Bruv naturally tried to shut it down before the situation got further out of control. He poked and prodded frantically at the controls of the bio-tank, but the manual override and late-term abortion functions had somehow been locked out by the computer virus.

In desperation Bruv tried to short out the electrical components of the bio-tank by dousing the control panel with the contents of his cup of tea. The resulting localised electrical storm and the explosion that followed it can best be imagined if you are an aficionado of super-hero comic books and movies. The powerful forces of life and creation at work in the bio-tank were accelerated and increased in potency as an unforeseen side effect of the electrical surge, and Bruv's own genetic material (in the form of gross backwash from the tea he had been drinking) became mixed with that of the experimental creature in the tank.

As the smoke cleared following the titanic explosion and Bruv slowly returned to consciousness, he saw that the bio-tank had cracked open with the force of the detonation. Warm liquid from the tank lapped around his ankles as he struggled to his feet and peered around the remains of the laboratory. There was a smoking crater in the center of the bunker where the experimental subject had been housed, and a sulfurous stink emitted from it.

Bruv approached the crater warily and, with horror in his eyes and heart, looked over the edge and down at the monstrosity lying within...

And baby Midway looked up into that heroic face, still wearing flying goggles and a leather cap, and chirped 'Dada!'




So now you know...the secret is out.

The result of that disastrous experiment was exiled without delay from The Few HQ, as all were afraid of it's dreadful potential. We gave it a Spit 8 from the hangar and tried to forget about the whole traumatic episode.

But some nightmares just don't go away...

He seems to worship you so perhaps it is difficult for you to be objective.

And yet you criticised me earlier for attempting to extend the same tough love by flying a Spitfire Mark VIII against Midway.

Firstly Maybe INK or debrody can confirm, I did tell him to join the DFC ladder, which he did for a time and then left after one or no fights.  If he had stayed and put in some hard knocks then my estimation of him would have still been intact.  Someone striving to improve through trial and error.

He worships all 7 of his FPH's.  If someone was spouting how awesome Grizz and the Muppets are then I wouldn't give a dam like everyone else shouldn't.  It is as coombzy said in his wordy post those that seek attention not getting any  :rolleyes:

Your targeting the pilot for his antics, I would only defend the noble history of my country and the Spitfire.  You offend wmaker's brewster you get the same response.    :D  I wasn't criticising the challenge it just surprised me a little that someone who detests drama, bbs flame wars and any sort of egotistical showdown would stoop to that level.    :aok

But you didn't tell him to either DA or shut up when he's banging on about pwning this person and that did you? A philosophy which we all know you subscribe to.


He worships all 7 of his FPH's.

Not equally.


I would only defend the noble history of my country and the Spitfire.  

Well not only those two things. I direct you to your heated tirade directed at Debrody before Christmas when he criticised your squadron and tactics. Your buttons get pushed just like everybody else. Midway doesn't bug you because he worships you in a deferential manner but when Zack pokes fun for long enough, for instance, you challenge him to the DA.


I wasn't criticising the challenge it just surprised me a little that someone who detests drama, bbs flame wars and any sort of egotistical showdown would stoop to that level.    :aok

I 'stooped' to try dampen his irritation of a great many players even offering to duel for forum accounts and now I no doubt look like a horses' arse for trying to make the forum a more civilised and respectful place. But at least I TRIED. Thanks for trying to devalue the endeavour and using it as an 'The Few' promotion platform.


You might aswell hand in your GFC tag and re-join the few.  :D

I think you less want me back and more The GFC to go away. What would you want with a stupid-mode Ki-84 pilot who spends most of his time going about the place looking for an idiotically disadvantaged fight anyway?

Just because he wants to polish Bruv's knob, it doesn't make Bruv responsible.

He will troll 200 and the BBS from sunup to sundown while pretending to be cute or innocent the whole time.  I just can't respect that.

If one is going to be a dick, just man-up and admit it instead of claiming innocence and feigning confusion.  If he was that innocent, he wouldn't have ben muted.

When I have gotten muted, it was because I did something wrong.  Sometimes you get burned when you play with fire.

Ignoring him has been the easiest way to deal with him.  He only does it for the attention, anyway.  If he didn't, he wouldn't call Skuzzy every time he gets muted and cry the blues to him about losing vox or text privs...

Maybe he feels the  negitive aspects of  Midway are worth the ego stroke given to him by Midway,  or maybe Midway is in fact trolling Bruv..



Also Im not sure we can count this 'another 20+ page Midway thread, as Midway is merely the subject and not the OP of this thread. If anything Shida is to blame  :furious

I don't view Bruv as weak-minded because of it.  He can't necessarily control the people that hump his ankle and I don't see him encouraging it, at least from my perspective I don't.

Maybe he feels the  negitive aspects of  Midway are worth the ego stroke given to him by Midway,  or maybe Midway is in fact trolling Bruv..

Perhaps he is just a troll, period.  Even if he isn't, I have never witnessed someone talk so much and say so little.

But affected by it none-the-less.  People who cannot be objective while have their egos stroked are weak-to-the-power-of-azzz-kissing.  Bruv cannot control who kisses his arse but he CAN control how he responds to it...and objectivity builds credibility.

Nuuuuuuuu.  I wish no evil on anyone, nor do I have any desire to spend the time needed to reach the levels of pwnage that some have spent to do so.  I rather like the marathon vs the sprint and love owning those that have spent the time in vain.

To quote Capt. Ramsey in Crimson Tide, "I can't stand kiss-ups and won't abide kiss-asses" and my philosophy is the same.  Your performance speaks enough.  No FPHs needed....ankle humping is the worlds second oldest profession...and some have the same weakness for it that others seem to have for the worlds 1st oldest profession.  :D

I'm here at work for another 5 or 6 hours, but after that I'll be playing with my kid until it's time to put him to bed and after that I plan to be playing DOTA with my mates :( Sorry dood.

Something that makes it even harder for me to engage in a GIF battle these days is that I can no longer get on THIS forum from my main computer at home. A while back I was accessing the internet through a proxy in the US so that I could unlock the new XCom game on Steam a few days early...and while waiting for it to install I clicked my shortcut to browse the AH forums...and that particular computer is now banned for having once attempted to access the forum through a proxy  :noid

In London town streets When there's darkness and fog
When you least expect me And you turn your back, I'll attack
I smile when I'm sneaking Through shadows by the wall
 I laugh when I'm creeping But you won't hear me at all
All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper
You'll soon shake with fear You never knowing if I'm near
I'm sly and I'm shameless Nocturnal and nameless
 Except for the ripper Or if you like jack the knife
Any back alley street Is where we'll probably meet
 Underneath a gas lamp Where the air's cold and damp
I'm a nasty surprise
I'm a Devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
 I'm a scream of the fright

Here is a brief (and hilarious) rundown of DOTA :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f-jR3Vo3Rw    If you fancy giving it a go when you get back up and running shoot me a PM, I have some invites for it.

I don't have much time for gaming these days sadly. At the moment it's mostly just DOTA 2 if I've got friends to play with and NHL 13 on the old xbox if I haven't.

DayZ is great fun, I don't play anymore but it is still going strong and I hear there are lots of new maps for it that add a great deal more to how the game was when I played. When you get your new comp going you should get the DayZ commander program which automatically downloads all the latest patches and maps and stuff for you as well as providing a server browser within it.

I made a bunch of videos during my time playing DayZ, here is my favourite one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxZT3uL4g1I  hehe

Happy New Year to you, sir.

Do you have a pie that goes with my beard?

Perhaps something a bit flavorful so I can chew on it later when I am hungry?

I have expanded upon the goatee and am working on a new hillbilly beard to honor Pervert  :rock

That would be true if the hair on my head would grow, as well.

Instead, as my late grandfather was so fond of saying, I cultivate on my face that which grows wild on my arse  :devil
