Thanks!

Hey.i know where ya comin from and the ranking system is screwed.
If you look at 100th net reading and search for him it will show him as 83rd therefore there are atleast 17 players above him that no longer play.There may be others but they will be still ranked above 83rd in xp.
Bomber1,dragon10000,wamp,enzo(eas),what up,von len,whitenow,samweb,ddubbaj,junkhole61,abu abed,bunnybunny,allan,shoe,russl22,oneball,dawsonn57,richy roo,big boss just to name the visible ones that i can remember.
The chances are that you are above most of these players but until they log into a game they will remain there.Badluck13 was in the 70's or there abouts but he has either logged in or the server change has moved him down to 300+(or something like that).
Ingame ranking shows bomber and 1001 sharing 4th just look down that list all those who have the same position,one of those no longer plays.
Yes its a head crusher.Hope you understand because im confusing myself now.

Also, can I be your "grasshopper" Cricket? You a baaad man! Lol!
Took a sec to realize how goofy that sounds....

Oh yeah, almost forgot:





A level up for Kurt! Just what the Doctor ordered!

Thanks Mac! Was nice having some MOMs in the air in a rank up! Also, was my first flight "with" MOMs, as opposed to friedchicken's position, lol! Been there too, ouch!

Gooo Goddo!

From an email received last night:

" I've been sneaking up on it (returning) with a banner here and there but I have a backlog of thanks to get said, so many M.O.M and non-M.O.M people have offered kind words on our thread....

I'll get something up on the thread tonight or tomorrow, thanks for looking out."

I don't feel you'll have much longer to wait.

Haven't been paying too much attention to you guys lately...my MOM thread reading has suffered. I had to go back and see the recent very sad events that have inflicted our MOM family. My best to Paul and Rick (and whomever else I missed) during this tough time. Nothing profound, I'm afraid. Hope to fly more in the future and to see everyone there.

Ladies, Gentlemen, and Paul,

Mac finally got his first 100-kill game!

A nice, even number to boot!


I could've kept going, but I promised the reds I'd let them win if I got the trip.

Thanks to Pink and Jack for hanging in there!

Also featuring appearances from horriblebreast, Rodama, Squeakwolf, and others!

Try this. Remove $. If not. Screen shot if needed.

Thanks, but I can't open it.......

Or is it mé again?

"Sorry, but this person has moved or deleted this image" it says.

Gordon Bennett, I'm thinking it might be easier to plough through War and Peace than this lot, anyone able to give me a quick ans relatively simple run through here, or do I really have to read it all. The thread that is.

"ANGRY MAC"

Um, not a lot has happened. I don't know if you were aware that Rick's father and Judy passed away (on the same day), but Wig is currently on a leave of absence, helping care for his mother. He is also no longer #1 in the world, but he will always be #1 in our hearts. Did I really just say that?

Huh. How long have you been gone? Cricket and Buck are now in Star Chamber, M.O.M is still the best squadron in Dogfight, and cake tastes good.

Recent MORAFings include Doggy Dix and Bts. Goddo and Sgt. York are soon to follow.

QBJ is back.

M.O.Ms we haven't heard from recently include BlueMax, Parrothead, and YEMX. Seriously, where is Yemmers?

That's all I got.

I'm in the Star Chamber?!?

Can confirm, Cricket is in Star Chamber.

Oops. What I meant to say was, "I'm in the Star Chamber."

I can't decide which is funnier; that Chuck wouldn't even realize he's been in The Star Chamber for months, or that he would realize it and post as if he didn't. Either way, a welcome laugh.

M.O.Ms, how to go about thanking you lot for all the generous, compassionate support throughout the past few difficult months? I can't. So tahellwitya.

I've poked my head up long enough to post a couple banners and to see the steady influx of kind words here and in PMs. Seriously, I can't thank you all enough. I'm deeply grateful to all the Non-M.O.Ms who've taken time to post or write, as well. Luna, horriblebreast, bzerkbzerk, Zebraup, so many others. I stopped counting thoughtful PMs and emails when they hit triple digits... it's been overwhelming. If I failed to name you here it's either because I haven't yet seen your post or have replied to your PM/email privately.

I've been asked where I stand with Dogfight since I all but stopped playing a few months ago and made clear my position on the paid "premium" servers announcement. I'm sure I'll drop in for a mission now and then but after nearly three years with virtually no progress in the game's design and performance, and, in fact, a marked worsening of the stability of the app, I can no longer justify burning the time on it that I once did.

However, I have no intention of scaling back my time here on the M.O.M thread. Moving forward from this week or next I plan on being around as much as or more than ever. My thanks to you guys for keeping it active in my absence, that's how M.O.M rolls.

I discovered Dogfight as one of many low budget boutique games of equal (or, often, higher) quality. Had I not fallen into the company of ScheiBe, B, Bopes, Tex, beatea and the rest of the founding MOMbers I would long since have dropped the game flat. It's always been the forum and the social component of Dogfight that's kept the game itself from dying on the vine with thousands of other limited entertainment value products. It's been M.O.M, to a large extent, that's driven the growth of the forum. Pre-M.O.M this was a sleepy little site. In the subsequent couple years you've raised the stickiness bar, sparked tons of activity and given every single-digit IQed jagweasel something to obsess on. Even a petty jagweasel needs a hobby. (T minus 10 to jagweasel retaliatory posts. 9...8...7...)

I'd be remiss if I neglected to thank Mac for keeping the fukwit contingent occupied when they didn't have me to be juvenile at. (and for keeping me updated and not entirely de-looped.) It's nice to know we're all in each other's good hands. Gratitude too to the Star Chamber. The one of which you are a member, Cricket.

I mean the hands thing figuratively.

Thanks M.O.M. I love you guys.

--w--

Great to see you back Sister! You're looking well.....errrrrrr.......ummmmmm.........cute!


Missed you!

Great to see ya Rick. Hope all is well, and you and yours are in our thoughts daily.

Haven't been on for a couple days, anything new or exciting that I missed?

If I may.....

Judy was BIRDBRAINBESSE.
She was the love of my life for many years.
She was an extremely caring woman that has opened our home to 6 homeless Veterans.
She was my rock, my strength when my heart gave up.
She read this forum to me as I recouped from surgery and got to know and care for you folks, as I do.
She passed as we settled in for our evening read.

She was my DF copilot.

She is my Guardian Angel.......she's watching over us all now........



Fly high....my LOVE....fly high.

Dang you Paul!
I know you told me not to, but when you write like that I couldn't stop myself.

DOGGYDIX :
Saw this dog and thought of you and your flying skills.
If you'd like link for avatar let me know.

I know, my friend, but make them joyous ones.
When we discussed parting ways, we both wanted an Angel to guide us.
We thought the Egyptian way might work. So we decided on photographs.
TUVA flys with her now.
Thank you Anders & Mrs. & MS.TUVA for blessing us.
