We already have, " If MOM catches you, your dead". But we can all agree to disagree as normal. Rule 6 is , well, Rule 6.. its covered under Rule 6. I believe its binding and unchangeable. Really technical stuff.

Duck had a way about him, didn't he!?

Just had a rollicking good BTC game. Shiver and me (mostly just us) vs Reid, Rickenfaker, a German sounding dude, and a few others.

Duck was of course mentioned. I suggested we honor his memory by killing each other. Reid (aka DUCKWING430) goes "KK" and blows my face off. And then we all expanded on that theme, repeatedly.

From then on it was a no holds barred hammer and tongs throw down. Hooey! Me and Shiv lost, but DAYUM! can that guy play!

Fantastic. Just what I needed to blow off some grief.

Thanks guys.

Ps: yeah definitely "if it's FLYin it's DIEin" should be our new officially unofficial new motto as per rule 6.

Oh and I vote IN on pops. In Duck's words, let's give the kid a chance.

My heart sunk when I got on the forum and saw 165 new posts on the thread My condoleces to Jon's family. But I truley feel joy for Jon, I am so happy that his pain is over. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. And also thank you for playing this silly game. Peace to you and so long brother.

Doghouse and I on duck mountain... That tank rolled the whole way down...

SMART ASS! Just what I needed!

Isaac.. You are not being "theman" right now.. Go away for a few days.. Come back next week, next month would be better.. Thank you.. Bye..

Personally, I disagree. I said smart ass through tears & laughter. I needed a smile. It was meant to help and it did to me. Thank you ISSAC. You are still the man to me. We all deal with death differently. ISSAC needs us now as we need each other. He was just trying to help us all.

Think I'm gonna go with Texas Duck. Some typical 12 year old boy was asking inapproprite things when I first announced the new name chage as Big Duck.

Let it be known that on this day, October 4th, 2012; three climbers by the names Kptn Singh , Hoagie, and Luna attempted the first Duckwing Challenge.

The Duckwing Challenge requires you to climb to the peak of the newly established Duckwing Mtn completely by foot. Expect impassable gaps, steep hills, all the while being shot at by other players. Challenging? Certainly. Impossible? Maybe. But if there was anything Duck has taught us, it's perseverance.

The three climbers mentioned above never made it to the peak of Duckwing Mountain. Kptn Singh fell down the span of the mountain, Hoagie fell asleep and quit, and Luna was shot by a tank shell.

Perhaps someone one day will complete the Duckwing Challenge. Remember who you are climbing for. And never look down.

EDIT: Kptn Singh attempted the Challenge once more, and beat it. Congrats!

My final words to my friend.......HOOAH JON "LEAD THE WAY" ....HOME

ive been informed that my video link to the "song for Duckwing" is not functioning. so here is the link.

this ones for you brother - rest in peace.


(the words have great meaning.

please go to the following link in honour of a fallen hero.



or just do a youtube search - brothers in arms (should be a vevo vid. - play it loud and say it proud!

: ..(.....................hhmmph...................well, I'd like to begin with saying that I'm sooooooo grateful that Duck happened to come across this game and give it a shot........and look at the extended family he ended up with, that we all may still enjoy... : ..(... He was allways the most sweetest, genuine, happy(although sometimes faked it , and powerfull player ever. He will ALLWAYS stay in my thoughts. He was an honorable man. Around a year ago I told him that I dedicate Metallica's song "One" to him. So lastnight I played it on repeat while playing for a few hours....This really stinks..... Tonight I'm flying all night(with music on random), till I can't drink anymore, for him. We will really really really miss u Duck! I'm glad M.O.M was around near the end to lift his spirits. Thanks guys. : ..(

How about when we enter a game that's the first thing we post, before taking off or saying hi to anyone

Ugh! I'm using my new device now, so I'm stuck with no chat ((((((((((((( Messed up! I guess a forceful vow of silence for Duck

I will be flying the call sign DUCKWING1199 (1199)is my badge number

Hey all at 4:49 am eastern time I was woke up by my poodle and yorkie to be let outside..I Heard my yorkie barking at something so I went out to check on him and seen a mallard duck sitting on the saddle bag of my Harley..I ran back in to get my phone ,but when I returned he flew off.... I don't know but mybe this is a sign? Duckwing is watching over us...my eyes are tearing up got to go for now...God Bless You Duck.

Was going to use the name Duckhead and decided against it... I kinda figured something like that would happen....

I spent the last hour reading about Duck's passage.
Some beautiful messages indeed!
I would sound fake if I wrote anything about these sad news, because I didn't know Jon, and I don't know anyone that participate on this forum at all, except for a few conversations and for ingame fights. But I am a very passional person (afinal, eu sou brasileiro!), and I'm deeply touched.

I am a 42 years old father of a 10 months little daughter (my sweet Laura). When Laura reach her 30 years, I probably won't be here. So, Laura (and all other children) needs a better world to live - and for this, we need to spread all good examples we have... So, seeing all these people saying good things about Jon, I think that posting a brief biography of him on this forum would be worth the effort, and would be of great help to the boys and girls that participates in this forum, for being better boys, better girls, and became better citizens to make a better world for us.
And for Laura.

Hi everyone. I'm 'Flying DUCK !' for awhile.

Duck had a way about him, didn't he!?

Yes he did. Like Muck said, maybe it should be said ingame. Furthermore, with every kill and destruction of a hangar, carrier, or zep, like sput, I will say "DUCK YEAH".

N.J., that was a great story!!!

Tex, I like Texas Duck. Yes, that kid was annoying. He would not shut up. I believe his name was "dragon (something)"

BTW, I'm flying under mavrkduck.

Concerning this latest update 4.4.17. It just showed up in my google play store but, thankfully my auto update is turned off. I was just wondering if anyone at all has had success with this update. I have a Droidx2. Sorry about you other guys having problems with it.

legendofkane wrote: TO ALL HERE, IF I DONT RESPOND OR SAY HI IN A GAME ITS BECAUSE I CANT,I MESSAGED 420 AND SHE SAID NOTHING CAN BE DONE,WAIT FOR ANOTHER UPDATE.DO NOT UPDATE GAME!!,,IN A HEAD ON WITH WAZZUP IT JUST FROZE,EVERYTHING STILL,IN THAT 2 SECONDS I WAS SHOT DOWN AND AS I SAID EARLIER,TRYING TO CHAT JUST TURNS ENTIRE SCREEN WHITE TO TYPE,CANT SEE GAME AT ALL.

Knew that's why you didn't respond to me in game earlier. I think this problem is droid, not seen an update for ios yet, let's hope it gets sorted, half the fun of the game is the banter.

Well, since George Lucas owns the word "droid", and I know he gets royalties from Motorola, it wouldn't surprise me that this new freeze when you updload the update is actually some kind of Jedi Mind trick momentarily causing you to blank out and freeze your plane!

I changed my in-game name, yet again. Now it's DuckKopf..All the different Duckwing numbers, was confusing me. Had to keep a list with who's who...

Dent, That would be Duck Head, sorta.. In german it would be "Ente Kopf".. That wouldn't work too well.. We have to MOMerize the languages you know..!

Look for DuckKopf, in a flame near you!!



Sorry about the Isaac thing. I guess it just hit me wrong at the time..

To all, I unfortunately took the download and can no longer chat. Not being rude if you see me in-game. My wife commented that it would be great if I could get the download in real-life. Not sure what she meant.

Thanks to Big Tex for his write-up a couple of days back on the squad. I felt honored to be mentioned.

I was thinking about the pilots that I hate seeing on the other team and there are a lot of them. I finally settled on EAS, Vamp, Calle and Sky Davis. Rickenfaker, EBU, Absolution and BunnyBunny would be equal to the previous four, however.

I would take any MOM pilot on my wing but give me Nazis, Diesel and Big Tex to start off with. If I'm them I shoot me down until another MOM pilot comes in and gives them a better fourth. I haven't played with Dogss much but I never have any luck with him. D_N is another problem for me and a big shout out to SB467. I still remember a game where I got schooled by this pilot. As I went down the list of pilots I was surprised how many there are (wow) and how many I never get a chance to fly with much.

If I had to recruit anyone I'd take Dawson, Calvin, Alex "Red"neck and Slender. Now, I'm not sure I've ever flown against Slender but occasionally I'll come up against a lower level that just eats me up so I always assume it's him!

My new response when I get shot or get a kill will be Quack Quack in the memory of Duckwing.

legendofkane wrote: THAT WOULD BE A GOOD ASSUMPTION,NOW GOIN OVER TO 111TH THREAD TO TELL THEM WHY I DIDNT SAY HI

I figured it was the update - 420 has the same problem. it was nice flying with you though big poppa.

btw dont be confused - for the next few days il be flying the banner for jon too.........

yours

|111th| mad duck.

Maybe the update is a plot, to shut all us MOM's up...

The first time I flew with Jon we were on he same team. He shot down an enemy, and I responded "Quack", as a tip of the hat to his name Duckwing1. This seemed to tickle him, so the next several guys he shot down, he said "Quack quack lol".

I've changed my name to QuackQuack61 in his honor. I will miss him.

MOM colleagues, until further notice my in-game name is b.t.duckwing...

I just found out that duckwing passed away. Really sry to hear that. May he rest in peace. I dont know how to express my sorrows. He was always fun to play with. Altleast his miseary ended, because he was always in pain so god does everything for a reason. My grandpa always said that god calls good people first.

Heyyyy.... What am I, chopped liva?

Hows this: in the spirit of "Age and Other Requirements for Membership in M.O.M.", paragraph 5 (bribery encouraged), I'll include on my MOM list the next three MOMs who include me on THEIR list!

So there!

As far as non-MOM fantasy league stuff: Enzo, Dawson, Vamp, Rickenfaker, Calvin, Red, Etc. As well as anyone I've ever thought favorably of (or at the opposing sight of whom i suffered fear-induced scrotal retraction) but can't remember at the moment..
