Do you think he gets up in the morning and plans this whole charade out, or just makes it up as he goes along?

When in my Spifire, and a bad guy comes along, alone, in whatever random aeroplane... I believe I will win the encounter roughly 95% of the time, maybe 90%.  

That's interesting. When I'm in my Nakajima, and a bad guy comes along, alone, in whatever random aeroplane... I don't think about winning or losing at all.

Well I'm not sure what that means, and I have thought about it a lot.

 previous winner of KOTH, is in the top 5% of active MA pilots:

I might have read this wrong but are you saying that people with a KOTH win are in the top 5% of all pilots?

If so, you are not right. Many good sticks do not like KOTH and therefore do not participate.

Agreed.  All I am saying is Debroby is a very good pilot, KOTH winning being one example, and I believe him to be in the top 5%.  Landing 10 MA victories in a G6 without rearms knowing he fought for them being another example plus my experience with him.  But that is just my opinion.

His SA and my ability to easily pick him needing work though.  Hey, we have something in common.  :banana:

Flew king of the hill once, don't determine it to be a measure of skill.

Survive in FSO and land countless victories goes a long way, Main arena you deal with a handful of cons at a time, FSO you can deal with dozens at a time.

When you some how manage to live through waves of 109s, 110s, 190s and come out with 5 kills, then you are ok in my book.

I think the issue is that both of who's IQ are argueing with eachother most of the time.

I'm not sure you seek to be an awesome pilot as much as you seek notoriety, Midway.  While the former eludes you, the latter you have achieved in abundance.  Perhaps, having obtained what you truly desire, you're finding it difficult to accomplish what you claim to want.

So you're saying these are the 1 v. 1's he claims he wins 95% the time...?

Noir,

At least in the real world I make a living fom the content of my walls of text. The denizins of this mad house make an interesting narrow slice social melting pot. At least "PA"(pathalogical altruism) is not a problem with internet game players. Nor thankfully here is "PN"(pathalogical narcasissm) from what I've seen. Just normal healthy irritating narcacism.
Who would stop trying if no one responded. You gents just like him too much not to play, along with it passes the time of day. You might change to calling him "who" instead of Midway and some of the steam would leave his roll.
"Who" give these guys a break.........even Levi likes you if he has bothered to post. I hope all of this isn't becasue of idle hands while on the government git. That can be really boring and lonely.

what do you do bustr? Personally I find every one of your posts devoid of any actual substance. you generally string together as many big words together for as many sentences as possible all the while saying almost nothing about anything.

do you work for politicians? saying that much nothing takes practice.
