Well said. The only thing I would add is, "respect everyone".

(Just trying to send a message to the young squabblers.)

Vor & AL....get this man's idea?

I stood up for you! Make me and the rest of us proud!

You are good kids. However, you BOTH are pissing up a rope. Try it. Nothing is accomplished, and your hands get wet.

Today was a special day
I was in a game with jonyoung, misshell, and bigpappasmurf
They all knew what happen to legendofkane
I asked if we could go to 2500 feet with there bomb
They said yes
So we climbed and when we got there on the count of three we released our bombs
then for the first time in my dogfight history ALL FIRE SIEZED for a complete 5 minutes

At the end we dedicated the game, the time, and effort to legendofkane


If you see this pilots give them a big thanks for what they did

Say you'll never let me go...

OMG I didn't understood what exactly happened with him, because my english isn't good enough to understand all in the ingame-chat. I'm really shocked about it.
I knew him not for a long time but it always was great to fly with legendofkane.
I feel so sorry. ;..-(

Sputnik, many many thanks for this post and your great idea today.

Epflyman still needs to be added forgot due this tragic few days.

Jonyoung no problem hes certainly welcome.

Killer badger is wiki isnt he? I have no problem voting in for him as a prodigy. I played him and he was very respectful and I was on a vicious kill streak that day and getting yelled at from my boys out there.

Don't know about the falcon thing. Everyone drserves a second chance the way I see it.

We all have a vote. We just pretend that there's a "supreme court" making the important calls for the good of the rest of the society of MOMs. I think we all know how well that system is likely to work. :whistle:

I don't know jonyoung but he's already garnered enough votes to persuade me, so based on your collective/connective/invective judgment, I vote "in".

Sput, you're a step ahead of me. I look forward to that being the case from now on. About like I look forward to my third set of teeth. ;)

Sput's impromptu tribute to Kevin/Kane is what we're planning for Monday. I know some players who've expressed a desire to join us and can do so anytime after 1am EST. For some I'm sure that will be too late, so let's say 4pm, 9pm and again at 1am, all EST (convert accordingly for your time zone) this coming Monday, 8/27/2012. Let the players in-game know in case they haven't heard, then do as Sput, MissHell and the others did; fly together, reach for the clouds, drop synchronized bombs if you choose...no firing, no one shot down, one fallen brother-in-arms in our thoughts. Stay as long as you care to then bail...or hit the ceiling, cut the throttle, enjoy the view on the way down...then crash. That last was dogss' idea and seems fitting, we'll each have one crash in our stats that represents Kevin. It's up to the individual, of course.

I'll hold off for a short while and if there are no objections or better ideas I'll post this info on the enigma and 111th threads.

Anecdote time:

Earlier this evening I was in-game for the first time today, ambling along, minding my own business, shooting some poor b*st*rd down (a newbie, no doubt, they're all I can hit) when BLAM! "Wigbomb was brought down by (p)Conoco"

Kids these days. You do and you do and do for them and what do you get? You get BLAM! She dropped out and seconds later Sput dropped in. BLAM! Nope, this time I shot him down. Typical. The younger kid always pays for the older sibling's mistakes.

I'm so proud of you both I could spit. And did. Blood. Thanks for nothing, Conoco, you demon spawn of M.O.M. The bar is set pretty high for subsequent Prodigy members, that's already more than obvious. My plane is still riddled with the evidence.

_______________

I just now finished a mission with the elusive *D_N*. As I suspected, he/she has no English. I'm cruising away from the action, trying to type in emergency Spanish with my multilingual girlfriend dictating over my shoulder. I managed to hack out, "MOM wants you to join." "Que?" "We want you to join our group." (D_N asks another player to translate...no dice)...FINALLY..."Would it please you to join M.O.M?" and just as the mission ended, carrier exploding, I get simply this..."Si". So...*D_N* is in.

Attention Spanish speaking members of M.O.M, be on the lookout both here and in-game, we'll need some translation help. I'm pretty sure she/he asked, "What do I have to do?" So that first in-game encounter will be important to get her/him/them (seems like a them sometimes!) signed up and on board.

_______________

On the flipside, I flew with Transporter last night, welcomed him to MOM, and he had no idea what the h*ll I was talking about. I thought I'd understood that it was a done deal but clearly that's not the case, let's put out a Transporter APB and get him/etc into the fold.

No I never meant that you did. I said I have no idea what happened with him and the falcons. Ill hold back the vote since you are more aware of the situation. Im clueless.

You got D_N?!?! Whoa! I feel like we just signed Lt. Ronald Speirs from Band of Brothers.

Re Transporter, must have been a miscommunication. I distinctly recall us giving him the pitch, "You in?" to which he replied "yes." after which there was much rejoicing by me and Trigger. But just to be certain I did tell him we would tell the squad and that he should drop a post on the thread to confirm. So go figure on that one.

Sput, didn't we H2H shoot each other down once? It's all in the game, young chieftain. I was delighted to see both you and Conoco in the same mission, albeit at different times. I'll be more delighted and less dead when we're on the same side. (for what it's worth, I don't like shooting at other MOM's either)

As to D_N, I finished explaining to the extent that I had anything to explain. Had you already mentioned something about recruiting him/her/it/them/cake?

I just put in a final pitch to MissHell. She/her/those has already signed on with The Falcons, so that's that.

Sputty, you seal the deal with *D_N* and I'll lock up TheVampire., kk?

Hello gentlemen, im sorry to hear the news and wish to inform you that you have my full backing on the memorial flight plan. I will take part, as im sure most if not all of the 111th will also do. Thankyou Rick for organising this - it is a pilots send off and im sure we will make it the best send ofc that a guy could have. Kevin was a really great guy and im glad i had the privelidge to fly alonside him - may god watch over him and may his memory live on through us all.

Anthony.

Hello guys,
I guess here is an little misunderstanding that I've to clear. I didn't signed already but it's right that my decision is to join the Falcons. I guess it was my fault because I still have problems with this language. Here it's no problem but in the game I can't use google for translation. That's the main reason why I'm still waiting before I join. But you can believe me. It is a great honor for me that M.O.M askled me for your squad. That means a lot for me. The same with Enigma and I'm really sad that I've have to say no to SweetJosy and the Popplers. When I started to play dogfight I had no idea how many great people play this game and how serious they do that and nevertheless with a lot of fun.
I the past years I've played different multiplayer-games like GranTurismo, Forza, CoD or BF3. But I never have seen a community like this and it feels good to be a part of it.

You all are great guys but if I get your planes in front of my machinegun then you've a little problem. 3:D

And no matter what or to which time you plan something to do for Kevin. I want do it too. Where exactly I can find the informations about it?

With best wishes,
Helen

Helen,

The memorial tribute flights for Kevin are Monday, August 27, 4pm, 9pm, 1am (Eastern Standard Time).

Thank you for the generous words. The Falcons are fortunate to have you in their squadron.

We look forward to having you join us on Monday, and to seeing you in the game.

Vielen dank,

M.O.M

More from the asinine anecdote department:

I've been flying for a couple days with the name ABSOLUTIONwigbomb. So far only Bopes has gotten the joke. Until an hour ago when I ran into ABSOLUTIONmbizzi on the opposing team. I've been dreaming of this moment for weeks.

bizzi - Nice name ripoff

wig - I like it too.

bizzi - gay

wig - I agree. That's why I copied it.

bizzi - homo

wig - You're quite the bard, aren't you bizzi?

bizzi - IDC, if you sit there typing you must be a homo.

wig - You're typing, too, homophobe.

bizzi - no I'm not

wig - Not typing? Or not a homophobe?

bizzi - gay

wig - oh, so you're not gay? Then what about the name?

(End of Mission)

All of which makes me appreciate that much more our own Brian Strachan who recently blew past this raging a55hole in the rankings. Among the reasons we came together to form M.O.M one was to include people like B, Bopes, SheiBe, Tex...another was to EXclude jagoffs like Mizzter Bizzi. So far, mission accomplished. By the way, I shot him down four times. If he doesn't like my saying so, he can come and call me gay again. That oughta teach me...
