Pretty much these days only thing that keeps me here is my squad, Fester MA, OZ Kansas and TEh Donut! The rest of the maps are lavishly boring and I will log very little time when they are up.

Perfect example-- Saturday night Donut is up, fights are great in FT everyone is fighting. Rook Horde resets map, new map is up. So I up FT and every fight is a runner. Puke! Log off wait fot one of the above maps.

Storch is easy, donno why he cries so much, its not like him dying is a rare occurance.

LOLH aint that the truth. He cries alot, but it's like hitting the bell on the hammer toss though. The best part is after all his talk he can't back it up. Ask him to the DA and he shuts up, tight as a frogs arse in water.

thats funny coming from a guy I wax repeatedly I may suck mars but I kill you lots. are you related to sharkeeRmoroniac?

Storch you are such a dreamer. You cherry picked me while I was fighting two of your squaddies. Now a skilless dweeb such as yourself might think your special but most of us know the truth.

Every time it was just me Vs you, you died.

I can post a few films of your cherry pickin arse, if I don't speak the truth post some films and prove me wrong.

Like I said, any time you want to put up, I'll school you in the DA. Just say the word.

storch solemnly takes a dump on mars' cartoon grave in the old CT.

Yeah I didn't think you would have much to say.

And that says it all!

the density of a pinhead boggles the mind. how could a brain box so small and conical be so difficult to penetrate?

I play this game because my life would be nothing without it. My girlfriend would leave me if I ever have a K:D ratio under 1:1. My boss threatens to cut my hours back if the country I am flying for loses the reset. My dog pees on the carpet everytime I get shot down by someone who started playing AH after I did. If I lose a perk plane, the bank said it would forcle on my house.

That is why I play AH. If I didn't, my life would go right down the toilet.

Bren, there are no fist fights at the con because there's too much beer drinking to do to waste time with punching someone. Besides they know that Skuzzy will disconnect them [Curly's voice on] poimenently [Curly voice off/]

I really have no idea anymore. Could by a sleeve of Titleist ProV 1's for less than this a month.

OK, I think I may be playing a bit too much.

When I read this, my first thought was "I dont even know what AKCurly sounds like..."

Took me an hour before the three stooges came to mind.

And I guess thats part of my answer to the main question: I play to sooth the addcition. My wife consoles herself with the truth that there are much worse things to be addicted to, and at least she knows where I'm at!

The other part is a lifelong love of 40s aviation. Grew up with Baa baa Black SHeep and 12 O'clock high i(IN RERUNS....honest!) As a kid, built model planes and zoomed them around. As a high school kid in the 70s, when Ataris came home and computers hit the mainstream, my brother and I excitedly imagined being able to hook to computers together and fly against each other.

real life intervened, with college, training, starting a career, marriage, kids, starting a business, mortgage.....

And then my brother introduced me to Aces Crack 2 years ago. He'd played some AW, but I couldnt get into the time and cost back then....yet in 2004 the time was right, and I've flown (mostly badlly...) ever since.

Hokey as it sounds, AH is like seeing a childhood dream come alive.

Because the cornucopia of complaints from the wife ack has become chiefly one thing "-> AH <-" which is much easier to manage because of it's singularity.

AH saved my marriage!
