Congratulations to Flyboy Twice in fact for a dominating performance in June winning both KoTH and EKoTH in dramatic fashion. In my opinion these KOTHs were outstanding and a TON-o-fun. That's KILO-o-fun for you metric folk.

KoTH was fairly short with two 'BIG Bullseyes' after just 4 matches and only lasted 6 rounds. Flyboy won the event flying a Spit 14 with half a wing missing and chose the P-40B for next month's KoTH.
We also welcomed GullGutz to his first KoTH.
The results by rounds:
* Flyboy in a P-47D-25
* pellik in a P-40B
* Flyboy in a P-38J
* pellik in a P-40B
* MENDEZ in a Me262
* Flyboy wins it in a Spitfire Mk XIV

EKoTH on the other hand was fairly long lasting 17 rounds with 5 'BIG Bullseyes' at the end and Flyboy again pulled out another dramatic victory. Similar to KoTH he won in a damaged plane, flying a P38L with one engine out and the other died less than a minute after he won. I have to give a to DarkBlue who won the first 2 rounds and stayed around for 15 more rounds of 'abuse' in a valiant effort to win that fell just short. The KOTH Team forgot to ask Flyboy what would be the first plane for next month so when we find out you'll find out.
We had 4 new EKoTHers that included MRMO, RATTDOG3, Tmen and yr0083.
The results by rounds:
* DarkBlue in a P-38J
* DarkBlue in a Bf 109G-6
* MENDEZ in a A6M2
* MRPLUTO in a Typhoon
* ManeTMP in a FM-2
* MRMO in a Ki-61-I (First KOTH round win)
* Jish65 in a P-40E
* WMLute in a F4U-1D
* Balsy in a D3A-1
* Flyboy in a P-47D-25
* piterkO in a P-40B
* Nuke33 in a Spitfire MkI
* Flyboy in a Mosquito Mk VI
* Nuke33 in a Yak-9T
* Jish65 in a P-51B
* ManeTMP in a C.202
* Flyboy wins it in a P-38L

Again, congratulations and to Flyboy.

Dates for July's KoTHs will be announced when they are set.

Great fights, great fun. For me KotH is the very best AH has to offer atm.

I can't stress enough just how much FUN the past EKoth was. We had a GREAT group of pilots, a decent mix of new and vet's, and some really incredible flying on everybody's part.

Big <> to Dark Blue. I was pullin' for ya' (even tho' I did kill you in that 2nd to last round ) to win it. I 2 have been 1st to two wins on many occasions and was horribly ganged for 10-15 rounds. I hope you view it like I do, and consider that "part of the fun". During my D3A round, when you had 4-6 pilots on you and it took them close to 5min to down you was AWESOME.

Big <> to Flyboy! Rare is it to have the same pilot win BOTH Koth's, and this month propells him into the the KOTH books as one of the great ones! He now has 5 total KOTH wins, AND he won last years Tournement of Champions, and has become one of the more prolific pilots to fly in the King of the Hill tournements.

Would also like to ManeTMP. I feel that in this past EKOTH he added to the mix quite well, and helped to shape it into one of the better KOTH's we've done. Good show Mane!

This month was a wierd couple of koths. Almost liked they flip flopped. After the KOTH USA was done in 6 rounds (5 rounds the record for fastes KOTH win) I was concerned that the 6k cap and 30second extension rule was making the fights TOO fast. But after this EKOTH, my concerns were laid to rest. I think the alt/extension limits are just fine now. Opinions??

GREAT time everyone. I hope all that participated will tell their friends and squaddies just how much fun it was, and help us to grow the KOTH into something even better than it is. (is that possible?)

You better thank me for having to go back to work for that emergency call Flyboy!ROFL!:D ( starting to wonder if Flyboy had something to do with me getting a call from work? hmm........another freaking CONSPIRACY!!!!!

)

I was so pee'd off that I had to leave the event.

Congrats on both your victorys for this month's events Fly!

LOL TC

no comment.

this is probably the last Koth ill fly for who knows how long since im starting flight academy on the 14th of july (real planes, yay

) but its a demanding 3 year course with very little free time, atleast at the start ill only be home one weekend a month.

i didnt exept winning both Koths but who am i to complain.
must say Ekoth was the best koth i ever took part in, with some exellent fights.

30secs\ 6k seemed to pump up koth to a more intensive level. so its a good thing, allso smooth operating by the CMs .

next month Ekoth will begin with the fearsome P40b

You know I am just joking with ya , I hope, FlyBoy

Lute/fuzeman anyway to move the July KOTH dates to July 8th for EKOTH and July 9th for USKOTH so Flyboy will have one last chance at defending his title before he has to leave for flight Traing?

I think he deserves a chance, any problems with this?

fuzeman · « **Reply #9 on:** June 29, 2005, 10:16:17 AM »

We we're going to make sure it was later so Flyboy couldn't attend so the rest of you might have a chance.
Just kidding

WMLute · « **Reply #10 on:** June 29, 2005, 03:57:56 PM »

Those dates should work out fine. I also agree Flyboy needs a last "hurrah" so we will try to make it work for the 8th and 9th of July.

Beg pardon, but didn't Flyboy say he was going to be in Greece right up until he is drafted on the 15(?)th?
