You'd think after playing long enough to make Air Commodore team killing wouldn't be an issue, wouldn't ya? Three different team killers yesterday, two the day before, but all Rank 3 or lower. Fly999 was one of 'em, if you see him on your team, watch your back. Also coop coop. (no relation...I hope) Is it my imagination or is team killing getting waaay more common lately?

They do that because we're to good and they can't kill anyone else. I hate that they kill me just for being number one :S

OhNo, the mere fact that you're from Texas constitutes an automatic "IN" in this squad! I live in the biggest city in Amerika and I feel like a minority in this mob! I'll knock together a personal banner for you ay ess ay pee. Barring any "out" votes, Welcome to M.O.M, man!

Bob...YOU ARE IN M.O.M DAMMIT!!!! How many more hoops do ya think we'd make a poor beleaguered bastardo jump through? Welcome to the Arkham Asylum of Dogfight, dood! Your personal banner is already ready and waiting...scroll back about two pages for downloading instructions.

B Strachan, there's just no gettin' around it, you are the gunfighter all the other grimy little pop-gun totin' nitwits want to kill to establish their reps. Like teamkilling you in the back is a bragging point, right? Not right. Karma bump for you, my friend. ATTENTION M.O.M AND NON-M.O.M ALIKE...KARMA DOGPILE ON BRIAN!!!! How fast can we make that number take a well deserved jump how high? There's nobody in here who deserves it more.

Tex, we're missing an opportunity here; is not that eighteen wheeled grill more than huge enough to bar-b-cue the ignorant arses of any number of teamkillers? Need I say more? Start whippin' up some of that special "scumbag sauce", Big T! I'd blanch at the cannibalism aspect of the idea, but...that would suggest that the jerks in question are of a species with us. We may be a species unto ourselves but it certainly isn't the same as mouthy mollusks like freakin' coop coop! Yeesh.

Here, have another M.O.M anthem to get you'all back in the song submitting groove:

Never heard of him but I like the name. IN on oh no.

Also, shout out to streetsbadnews. Hilariously fun dogfight game there earlier, streets.

And BTW general jack is back in top form I noticed. Had to dust off my patented "Escape from jack" maneuver more than a few times tonight. I'll be picking grass outta my teeth for a while...

Also, I believe we may have another prospect dropping by soon. Stay tuned ...

What age is that minimum age of a true M.O.M. as described by the actual mean old men of this group. I'm not trying to join just curious what the elder members consider to be "old enough" I know you have prodigy for future mean old guys but as far as the minimum goes I'm curious.

Well ... we have never been able to express the minimum age as an actual number because we suck at math (see Rule .. um .. Rule .. er .. what was that Rule again?)

#6 = IDK? Maybe y'all should make the prodigies work on math instead of cleaning planes, giving sponge baths, and baking cakes. Lol

Trust me and KeithTheo on this one, Bopes; OhNo is a treat to play with. I'm trying to get away from the "vacation slideshow" aspect of too detailed mission anecdote posts, but...

OhNo, a couple comparative noobs and I, all on the same team, the only players in a bomb the big boat game. OhNo and I land on the enemy free enemy deck. We begin requesting that the noobs kindly shoot us so as to tank the carrier. (probably giving birth to two more confused teamkillers) The noobs don't get it. Or they can't hit us. A glitch causes OhNo not to be able to see any other players. We're wingtip to wingtip and he can't see me. He's now begging a noob to shoot him. "Mother of god. For the love of f*k will somebody please shoot me?" I'm now laughing so hard I'm crying. Finally a noob shoots OhNo. This had to have been by accident. OhNo misses catching his tank. Now begins the process whereby I guide OhNo to shooting me in a plane he's probably standing on but can't see. Fail. Noob comes back across, we're thinking to shoot me so I can grab a tank...noob bombs me instead. It eventually ended with us conventionally B-ing the C. Four blues, no reds, half an hour to sink a bleedin' dinghy.

Now then. who's this new applicant, Bopesy? I did see Jose One Konobi for a millisecond tonight, not long enough to say hi much less tell him the banner is ready signifying membership in the squad to which he has yet to apply. If anyone would like me to add any hot prospects to the master for-no-eyes-only recruitment list, PM me or post 'em.

Couple other potential M.O.Ms to watch for; Frko, who's had the benefit of my pitbull recruitment efforts a few times, turned up and got re-re-repitched yesterday. I'm still hopeful he'll jump off the fence. Also SHOOTIST asked about the process of application/admission. I witnessed him being recruited by Enigma but his interest seems to be in becoming a M.O.M. Thoughts? Votes? He has one "IN" vote from me.

The "Math Rule" is Rule #7. The one between Rules #4 and #5.

The minimum age for non-Prodigy M.O.Mbership is something to do with being old enough to go to jail. I wrote the rules but due to the sensitive nature of the information I then had to kill myself. I miss me.

Since "mean", "old" and "man" are really just states of mind, I suppose entry into M.O.M requires that you have a mind and your mind have a state. Therefore we are still looking forward to our first qualifying member.

Well then I look forward to flying with Oh No. :)

I saw Jose One K a day or so ago and welcomed him to the squad, told him you had his banner ready, etc. he was tag less though. Said he was having login troubles.

I vote absolutely IN on frko. Shootist too.

The potential new recruit I mentioned is in another squad so I won't name names till he does the necessaries ...

If I was not already in enigma, and if falcons said no, and if I couldn't convince Luna to take me in, and no other squad responded to my forum plea to join a squad; I would Definantly consider trying to join MOM!!!

I went to jail once. I was there 24hrs and I didn't have nearly as bad of a experience as I had expected. Probably because I cooperated so well. I don't think its ever a good idea to fight law enforcement...they are just doing their job and if they catch you doing something illegal its best to go along with it.

We actually bought a Ford crown Victoria because I like the way it drove while riding with the cops. As some of you may know cops don't drive the speed limit if they can help it. I remember sliding back and forth across the plastic back seat while in hand cuffs. I even commented on how the car handled to the officer and he agreed that it was a fine automobile. I have gone 120+ on some rural roads in mine and it handles the same at speed as it does goin slow.

Hey guys I just came across a topic in the aircraft section called help posted by new recruit bob. I told him to come here to page 242 to find wigs instructions for banners etc. but you might want to reach out to him. Hope it's the right bob or I may have just started another imposter chain reaction :whistle: :pinch:

Hello to all M.O.M. Squadrons members, my in game name is ¥M4rtin¥,I had contacted Bopes about switching squadrons since I was in a squadron that was run by much younger players and did not realize this until later on.

I was playing with a bunch of your squadron members one evening and the discussion took place about the earlier years of Atari, PAC man and joust ettccc.. And realized that I had joined the wrong squad. Also i have read a lot of your posts, both funny and on point.

I have resigned my position within the squad respectfully and with no hard feelings.

I would like to become a member of this squad since I can relate more to the members here and enjoy the comradery you have with each other, yes I am much older, 42 years young with a teenager. I am from the U.S., New Jersey, please don't ask what exit. :lol:

Bopes asked me to come here and post my intention. I will do my best as a squad member to enhance the game as it is intended and have lots of laughs in the process against those who don't. Look forward to your comments and or feedback and will not do a diatribe this long again :lol:

Ok, quick test of your math skills...how many fingers am I holding up in my left hand and how sponges in my right hand, now add them together and subtract how many sponge baths you have assisted Sput in giving to Agnes, then divide that result by the time it would take you to fly your plane to Alpha Centauri and bomb six hangers on the way, you have aprox 1 minute in which to guess the answer starting an hour ago :huh:

Muck all votes count, just don't ask me to count them! (see Rule 7, as well as my unbroken string of epic fails in projecting the apocowigopolips) . :)

Anyhow, goes without saying, but M4rtin's got my vote. That was a textbook example of proper observance of sqad-join etiquette, from a fellow inmate of Weird New Jersey, to boot! That last fact deserves a few sympathy votes right there!

Speaking of which I believe under the state sovereignty provisions of Rule 6, Mean Ole (AKA Jersey) Devil is obliged to cast a vote. :)

Ha that's a trick question. C u were typing that when u asked it so u weren't holding any fingers up or holding any sponges. I have assisted sput 0 times so 0-0 =0 and no matter how long it took me to fly 0 divided by anything always =o. And when u posted that I posted my post 55 minutes earlier so it was impossible to anwser that because I didn't even tell u I wanted to be that an hour earlyer. So ba bam answered. Sput ya didn't help at all i already new the anwser.
