Jokers Jokers(#1 Base Capture Squad in AH)

[Steve]

Dang.  AoM had 2 base captures last tour.... we'll work on that. The offending parties shall be thoroughly beaten about the head and shoulders. This is unacceptable! 0 FTW!

[Joker2]

I don't have to agree with their style of play, but I'll tell ya what. I accepted Jokers invitation the the DA and he just smoked me 2 out of 2 in a plane he doesn't much and one that I do all the time. That impressed me. I don't consider myself a uber stick but I do think I'm pretty desent most of the time.Top of the average 3 or 4 year player.

But he showed me he is a class above skill level then me. The way him and Ghi can gather such a crowd of friend and foe alike, I think is a testament to their leadership abilitys. I've been in Ghis and jokers missions before, and they take control and focus on the objective at hand. I don't have to like it, but I do have to respect that.

The squad is so big that they have a good mix of guys at all skill levels. I've absolutely hunted these guys, knowing I would get the biggest pleasure killing them or madder then a wet hen dieing to them. The squad I love to hate

No matter they're game style, they're hard to fight at times. And I'd rather have a hard fight then a easy one.


DISCLAIMER: If any of this sounds like I'm praising them, let the record show that I'm under the influence of fine Kentucky bourbon at the time of publishing.(Image removed from quote.)

Uptown I never knew it.
But I learned after our trip to the DA and you have solidified it here with you're post,

Uptown You Are A Class Act.
I only wish more people in this game had the same character that you show.

Sometimes I wonder how all the incessant flaming makes other's feel better?
I will choose the high ground here enough said.

You did?! I'm stunned (I'm being honest here too)

BTW I see where Zazen got his dues caught up....................finally .  

[NoBaddy]

Well, in Ah we always have a big bunch of 10 year olds looking for a clan, err squad. I'm eagerly looking forward for you to prove that theory 

 

Damn, my bad.


I meant to say 10 year old CHIMPANZEES!

BTW, it isn't clan or guild...its "team". RAH RAH!! 

[Kazaa]

What, people still take bases in this game? It's not like the war can be won now.

[A8TOOL]

One of the very best base taking squads in this game was the MAW. They invented ways to take bases back in AW that no one else thought of. After AW ended they came here and invented even more which have been copied many times over since those beginning years.

I'll admit, it is hard to organize large groups of people and Jokers Jokers have done that well but have always had a BAD REP for the way they fly and for the people they choose to recruit. The roster is full of jack As's, cry babies and squeakers but together they get things done. I'm sure Joker has done his best to try and quell his smack talkers in an attempt to  become more of a respectable squad but IMO the Jokers will always be one of the most underhanded squeaker squads in AH. Comparing them to the SOAR of  07 08 might be going a little far but it's close enough to make a tie in.

The A8's in their prime have taken more bases with less guys than the Jokers ever will and they've done it with a whole lot more class. Unlike yours, that squad will always remain a respected name to go up against because of the honor and respect they given to the community.

The Jokers have changed the game a bit, but for the worse not the better. Either way I congratulate you on your success to organize large groups of easy to shoot players working toward common goals for the shortest amount of time before regrouping. Defending is another story. Your teams ability to find flaws within the game and manipulate them to your advantage is just outstanding!

[Twizzty]

WOW, some aw some pictures posted in this one so far

Lute is winning at this point though

 

All kidding aside though, we have alot of fun together and weather we take a base or just steal all of Jokers kills...it's always alot of fun.

[Dragon]

Nevermind

I'll respond to that with a question Joker. Do you really feel that as a squad you guys are a "class act"? I don't.

That is in no way meant to be a flame but it is an honest observation. I think the game has suffered a lot from the borg collective mentality as it is. When a squad with seasoned mix of skilled players not only contributes but accelerates the trend I've got no problem venting my spleen. You guys have the skill and coordination to aggressively contest disputed area's but invariably what I see is the bish horde in one place, the rook horde in a second and our own idiots (knight) in a third. None of you are actually fighting strength on strength except by mistake IMO. whats funny is that when you do get into a real fight you whine on 200...which you never did before that I recall. It seems harder and harder to find you guys in a good fight, either you have tremendous numbers or when you get contested you melt away. I'm sorry but I dont see how a bunch of seasoned sticks playing digital dirt hide and seek horde monkey is a good thing.

That is not meant as an attack on you personally or anyone in the squad. I hope in time you guys will evolve into the type of squad you can be. In the meantime I guess I have to agree with TC to a point in that it might be better then the alternative...

[Murdr]

What really confounds me is that this was a positive post and yet so many said so many negative things.

When you scream "look at me" in the public square, you surrender your right to be picky about the quality of attention you'll get in response.  Positive posts my ***...It could have been a positive post, but the self-inflating BS pretty much canceled out the positives.

[4deck]

What a friggin waste of disk space. Invented what crap. Blow that out your arse.

[Joker2]

Humble.

I believe what i said was Uptown was a class act.


I will not comment here on whether or not I feel my squad is anything other than a group of guys who have fun flying together.

As far as me whining on 200. I rarely even tune 200 and then i usually tune it out mentally. Now if some Bigmouth verbally attacks me or my squadies i will usually invite them to DA and watch them cower.

Most takers have been banished without much trouble.

But Please understand I don't claim to be the best and never will.
There are many better sticks out there.

I'm just a guy trying to have fun and helping others do so in the process.

I appologize for not doing it your way.

[stodd]

I challenge any squad to post a role call of squaddies that you think compares to ours.(MA dominance)

~~NO EVIL~~ and with about 1/10 the # of pilots.






This thread is going to get funny.

[TheflyingElk]

I guess I have cancel my account cause I just cant compete with this sort of Dominance

[Ack-Ack]

Unlike yours, that squad will always remain a respected name to go up against because of the honor and respect they given to the community.

If members of the A8 squad keep vulching shade accounts for rank, I think any honor or respect by the community won't be so forthcoming in the future.


ack-ack
