What a total crock of crap, Lazs. The 13th TAS did not acquire their skills flying furballs. Indeed, as recently as 6 months ago, Rude would have been horrified if you suggested he should go furball.
You acquire one thing in furballs: Fun. You don't learn group tactics in furballs. You don't learn squat except individual flying skills.
To be sure, Rude, Sax, Yeager, Toad, Milo et. al. are superb team flyers -- but they did not learn that furballing.
Tell you what, I'll go one step more. If the 13th TAS continues to furball, they're going to lose their team skills.
The AKs fought the 13th TAS in the finals of the squad competition. We lost the first round (barely) in ponies; we handily won the second round in La5s. And, we were badly beaten in F6Fs. Do you know why were badly beaten? Because they had a bigger bag of tricks concerning merges than we had.
Yeah, you learn about coordinating 10-way merges in furballs.
If you like to furball, that's cool. But why in the world are you guys pounding on others for participating in Aces High in the manner that the game was designed?
If Aces High was designed with furballs in mind, I wonder why Hitech included strat objects? I wonder why he prevents fields from being closer.
Damn, Lazs, you ought to have the decency to be embarrassed by the crap you are saying.
