 F-3 mode is used in the DA by most who come there no matter how much the say they don't. That is how they make those fantastic deflection shots in there you never see in the MA or move at just the right time to avoid your fire.

You've been saying exactly the same thing without variation or evidence for as long as I've been here like a tragically broken record or the last remaining member of the Flat Earth Society.

I flew the lake non-stop for years, blind, under the nose shots and extraordinary angle deflection shots account for at least half of my shots and I do not use F3. I can do it MA / DA doesn't matter. Any instinctive stick can sense the moment the opponent is going to fire, you don't need F3 for that either.

Just because YOU can't do these things doesn't mean others can't.

Did you know that film viewer records other players' recorded views? If they use f3 you can see. I doubt you have checked this, not much to gain by checking is there.

No, this is wrong, it projects your recorded views onto their aircraft. At least it does on my film viewer.

 Record it and go see for yourself I know what I know and F-3 is how they see you even if your are under and behind them at close range. I am sure I would have saw the same magic worked in the MA after 7 years in here. Plus why do you never see the same DA super aces have the same success in the DA? :headscratch:

Why worry about such nonsense.  I simply do not understand those that allow fear of losing to manufacture such reasons.  There are so many that claim this as a reason for their reluctance and fear.   It's a game...or maybe, like one or two specific folks, it's all they have, therefore they need excuses.

You haven't fought them because you don't go to the DA

What fascinates me about the DA is the duplicity of the environment. At the same time it caters to the gayest of the gay at fireball lake and allows true fights and toon honor to be played out on the side bases. In the profundity of universal law - balance, the legitimacy of the DA challenge is proven out.

When someone denies a challenge to the DA they prove their cowardice and their ilk. By flaking out based on the sad practices of "Furball Lake" they prove that they have never known the honor of a true fight in the DA. They prove that they are of that mold. They prove their nature is the nature of gayness because they only see the DA as it is in "Furball Lake".  They have never known the higher calling of a fair fight. They are weak. They are of no account.

Only the weak refuse a fair fight in the DA.

THIS^^^^^^

I remember not being able to get Jayro to come to the field away from the cess pool.
He was obsessed with being at the lake in a F4U4 at x number of thousand feet, proclaiming I was the dirtbag for not chasing after his "speshul" self.

But that's not what grizz said. He said you can see the views the other player is using in your own film, which you can't.  :)
