Allow myself to introduce...myself
« on: November 19, 2008, 04:10:38 AM »
Okay, so this whole Skytiger thing has made me do some self reflection about what some people in the community may think about me since I kind of just burst on to the scene out of nowhere, so I thought I'd formally introduce myself to anyone who doesn't know me already.  I've gotten quite a few PMs in the game asking me what my 'old CPID' was.  Well, the truth is, my old cpid was...drum roll...Grizz (For the most part) I started in Air Warrior 1 Korea with the CPID "DMig" and flew with the *Dragons*.  When Kesmai moved to Gamestorm, I followed to Air Warrior 3 and played in Korea as Grizz before starting to fly in Relaxed Realism Europe 1 as Grizz.(Not to be confused with another Grizz that flew in the Hammerheads in the Pacific Arena I believe, he may have even flown here a while ago I"m not sure)  I flew in a few squadrons in my long stay on Air Warrior.  The Snakes(With SNA and Snail as CO/XO), 4Wing Squadrons (With Manx and SHawk as CO/XO) and my own squadron Night Raiders that actually didn't last that long :)  Anyways, in the last four some odd years, I've been off and on Aces High as 'Grizz' for a few months at a time.  I play professional baseball in the minor leagues and with those demands there really is only a few months out of the year that I can actually fly which is why I disappear into the night time and time again.  Since I returned a couple months ago, this is the first time I've actually immersed myself into the Aces High community (i.e. lots of 200 chat, dueling fellow pilots, lots of vox communication, opening a BBS account) and I must say, it has been a real treat and honor to meet some of the fine people in this game.  Unfortunately, I have to be leaving again in two-three months and I will be gone for a while.  I just thought now would be a good time to say I appreciate the friendships I have made so far and hopefully I can get to know some more of you vets out there a little better in the next coming months and earn your respect.

Cool Grizz, welcome  :salute   I think you'll find there are many, many, exAW around.  Both with familiar names, and also many wearing different names than they did in AW.

Another athlete, woot (Max, shut it!).

And yeah we did get off on the wrong foot lol.  When I see someone flying a perk ride in a mob at a base I usually assume the worst thinking it might be some tard I can rile up, so sorry for being a bit mouthy with ya, lol.  I don't apologize for the kills though hehe.

Heading to Florida or out West?  Actually don't answer that better not letting anyone know any details.  Imagine having storch for a fanboi stalker down there in South Flordia... eeek.

Shoot me a pm if ya like, we can set up some duelling time too.  I'll be in Flordia quite a bit this winter doing what I do, so who knows maybe we'll run into each other.

Oh, and AH is bad, baaaad for your playing career.

I don't see any problem.  I'm sure he went to college.  Most colleges don't offer a Bachelor degree in minor league baseball.  I have an engineering degree also, but I am self employed as a Photographer.  I consider myself an engineer, even though I have never worked in the field that I studied (long story with a weird series of events).
