Kane, not much words can offer here but with you fighting on and all the positive energy coming your way from friends, family, and MOM's, here's to you beating the odds. See you in the sky...

I was in a DF free for all and she came in and imediately left. In DTB games she just hangs around her base and kills everyone getting close.. Saying this, I am all for her
becoming a M.O.M. These are the only games Type games I have seen her in, but we all have our favorites and avoid some if we can/ or just want to.. She may just like all the targets coming to her rather than chasing someone. Has anyone else seen her in a DF game?


Wig,
Stop taking your meds with Johnny Walker.. Try uhh, water?



She is good head on. Shed rather drop her bombs and get easy kills against lesser opponents. I play her alot shes got nothing on lesa . . Anyhow aces show up and outnumbered shes gone. Hence the five to one ratio. We Dont need her.
A man with any character at all must have enemies and places he is not welcome...

...re: prettykitty...just in a CTC against her. My team included MAD and Wumper. She' s good but seems to have the emotional maturity of a 12 year old...apologies to more mature 12year olds. Carrier shot MAD but when he KIA'd her, her comment was "lucky shot." Seems like anyone that hits her does so only thru luck, including me of course... First impression, just an obnoxious number racker... :sick:

BTW yesterday I was in a stalemated bomb the base game, slightly outnumbered and outgunned but holding my own and hoping for reinforcements. At this critical point badluck123 drops in on my side flying the MOM tag, at first sight of which I'm relieved. I figure, now at least we have a shot at it. I shout out a welcome and say I'm glad for the help.

My sense of relief is short lived. Badluck123 then proceeds to do harm to his K/D ratio all over my nice clean stalemated game, and the other side gets the upper hand. We eventually lost that one, despite better flyers dropping in toward the end. Then I remembered, badluck123 is the notorious "noob impostor" right? Well, after that performance he lost any benefit of the doubt, for sure.

Re prettykitty, oh well. Plenty of other aces in the sea. Redouble efforts to recruit the Nipon Nymph, pronto!

Was this about the time you were frying burgers with no pants on?
I was wondering why you crashed when I came up into formation. Grease splatter?

No that was a different game (and I was fully clothed while frying burgers, thank you very much; and it wasn't grease splatters but the act of flipping burgers (crash no. 1) and applying cheese to said burgers (crash no. 2)).

BTW, I checked with the wife and the correct response to your in-game query is: the MOM-tag looks very slimming on you, Paul.

The correct response is independent of actual data, of which I have none; but please do not post a picture of your arse. The correct response is not subject to either confirmation or refutation.

Okay then...the MOM vetting non-system system in action, and prettykitty out. Henceforth anytime I see "dots" in a game I'll simply say "Lesa?" If she responds, I'll recruit, if not I'll assume I have the wrong dots. Most wrong dots can be treated with a course of antibiotics and some topical ointment. That's comforting with so many different dots floating around these days.

I was playing last night, suffering the most severe lag and chronic dropped connections yet, (I put a grip ton of bullets into the kill-shot tails of at least fifty planes and got, no joke, two kills and four "you hit whosis's wing".) Point being, Kevin/Kane was playing, too! I tried to get a look at his MOM tag but managed to swap hellos with him before my connection dumped me out again. Sorry for the lousy manners, Kevin! If you see "wigbomb has left the game" you can safely assume it wasn't my idea nor was I grilling burgers with no pants. Burgers with pants can be a little tough depending on the fabric blend. Some nice 100% cotton or summer weight linen slacks with caramelized onions and smoked gouda...now that there is some stylish backyard eatin', booouuuy.

Netredding and Legendofkane banners coming up asap. Welcome to M.O.M, doods!

Welcome to the squad Kevin ! I haven't played you before but look forward to seeing you with the MOM tag.

Sorry I missed the whole pretty kitty vet clinic thing but I have never encountered her that I can remember so I'm happy with the outcome . I must add this squad thread is actually really decent reading ! No wonder we have a record amount of hits

hello, good evening fellow passengers, had days without writing the post, and just wanted to say hello, and tell Kevin to have much faith. There is a saying that faith can move mountains. so greetings and take care, see you in heaven.

My English is not good, so please excuse.

Greetings, Nazis. :cheer:

bopes,
we were just in game together. I'm using an iPad II.. It seems like my plane is slower than everyone else that I'm watching and chasing. Others turning quicker and climbing faster. Are iPads poor choices to use.? It really seems like I'm in slo motion. IDK. I'm getting frustrated I hit their wings and they shoot me down!! That's always the scenario? Or maybe I just suck at this.. Maybe I have reached a plateau need remedial training, fired.. Imperial Ruler is a lot of preasure on an old guy.. But your Pope.... That's tuff too.

Welcome back Nazis!

ScheiBe I play on an iPhone. I don't know if there are issues with iPads. But tonight I noticed a new kind of lag: total freeze up for like 3-4 seconds. Weird.

I guess we should also mention tonights new recruits: cactuses (vouched for by mean ole devil, of age, shot ScheiBe down while texting). And (I think) Eddie Rickenbacker (well known good pilot). Kopf asked him if he was in, Eddie responded affirmatively then immediately left, presumably to "adopt the moniker."

Unless others object I say both are in.

Is your sensitivity set to max -- if not, ratchet it up. I play with a 7" tablet and I've also tried a smartphone. I actually felt like I played better with the phone, but I do prefer the size and screen of my tablet, so that's what I play with. I do believe the game is more optimized towards phones than tablets though.

Just to be sure I'm on top of the roster (and SheiBe, I imagine this'll help you as well) here's who I believe we've added since the last batch of banners. The banners appearing to function as "membership cards", I guess...

Netredding
Legendofkane
Cactuses
Eddie Rickenbacker

We already had Eddie Rickenbaker, and now we also have Eddie Rickenbacker, yes?

The EddieRickenbacker I was talking to in-game is the same guy.. He is already a member. He is just having issues with passwords and stuff like that (definately M.O.M material). I was telling him to get MOMed.

Cactuses was Vetted via the M.O.M vetting non-system system (so it's Official) and chastized, reorganized,recrutisized and M.O.Misized during a DF game. I saw him coming my way and while we were Vetting him and texting he shot me down... Welcome to M.O.M Cactuces.

He and the others are on the First Page Roster List Mr Wigbomb. So run with whatever your running with and Giter Dunn.

One other thing.. PrettyKitty... She/He is a one man Death Squad. Bombed carriers/Hangers shot everyone in sight last night (bantered more than I ever saw her do).. Gets upset and starts name calling when killed (getting killed will do that to a person).. I don't think this is a woman playing, IDK??? Just call me Homophobic..

I.R. over and out

Crap! Not sure which one we talked to last night. So, maybe hold off on that new banner until further notice. ScheiBe do you recall if it was Eddie with a "k" or Eddie with a "ck"?

Never mind. I see kopf chimed in already to clear that up. my bad.

Wig.. The Roster on the first page is as updated as I am aware at this time. The Rosters that I bring forward from time to time, I don't keep those up to date as much. So check the main roster against any additions we have.




bopes, sorry I was so lame last night.. You saved us as usual..

There must have been something in the air last night in Texas?? Big Tex was off his game and getting really upset :angry: .. (especially when a little pinhead started calling him a fag) :oops: I told the pinhead that he may not want to go there... he did anyway!! RIP little pinhead :(

Welcome to the baker boys good players both, and great to have cactuses on board too damn class act right there.

Schiebers, I play on iPad2 sensitivity on full you may already do this but when you want to do a tight turn tilt up at the same time I think it's called "up elevator " ?? Anyways it works a treat for me most of the time .

Thanks, I'll try it.. I backed off on the sensitivity (a tad) just lately to see if it would help my aiming. I also turned off all the Graphics, thinking they were using more memory and slowing the game. One more thing, my pitch and yaw controls (someones going to get me on that one) (up/dn l/r..) get all out of wack alot when playing and I have to reset the game often. Is that a game issue or my Ipad?

Thanks for the info...

I saw the suggestions you had for the squad name before you decided, and that's why I get along better with older people, they just have so much more wit, wisdom, interesting stories, less idiocy, and more tolerance for people being themselves than the other kids these days.
