TINKER: Thanks for showing up when you did. BTC going on forever with fairly new folks on my team. So far behind.
You showed up and the TINKERMAGIC began. We won. I became a MINI-MARSHMALLOW. THANKS!

KARMA ALL AROUND!

To Eddie Rickenbaker: sorry to do that, bud. But I didnt resist!
That rotten fish350 was too annoying. It was the first and last time I did that thing, I promiss...

To all MOMs: if you see a fish350 on the sky, please shut his mouth with a bunch of bullets.

(By the way, why Eddie Rickenbaker dont post here on the forum?)

Well my friends. I just got home from helping with power restoration efforts from the snow a bit north of me( efforts to continue tomorrow). My plane is warming up as I type and I plan on taking some frustration out here in a bit. Hopefully on the red guy and not my plane but time will tell.

Well my first game was with your friend fish350. I tried to get a screen shot but kicked myself. A very educated guy this one seems. Just that he needs to know this is a game and not a health education class ( lack of better words). As I'm still not very well known here if you report him you can say I seen it too. Or anyone for that matter wants to report him.

Vigilante justice, I know, but I have stopped reporting team killers for the most part. I just give them the attention they obviously want. If you have a few folks that have been on a while you can usually give one of them in red a pass and let them pound the sand out of 'em. Maybe this doesn't fix the problem, but it's a helluvalotta fun.

I just want to say thanks to all of you moms that have partisipated in a hole bunch of greate games with me today.

Beanboy. I didn't leave you high and dry on purpose. Lost connection somehow. When I came back you were gone too. Good game while it lasted. We had them on the run.

I recruited Eddie when we first started this Squad. He does not have a Forum account that I know of, has never been on our thread. He will chat with you while playing and that's about it. He's a good guy and really has become a great MOM..

No worries KA5EY. I was down and heard a bomb drop; figured that was the last hangar. I was alone, so I quit to grab a smoke. If you made it back in I guess they held off on bombing to play with their food first.

Dude it turned into an awesome one. bLo came to help after I was able to get back. Probably lasted for another 20 mins. We still lost bro. That's how much you where missed.

I need 13 kills for 3k. I'm gonna take a min. To get cleaned up for tomorrow then I'm going flying again. Would love to have a MOM there for another milestone. I'll post when I'm back in the air.

Going in. See you there.

Sorry bopes just was not feeling that game, especially the reds we were playing against. Just not going to be points fodder for any glory hounds interested only in padding their stats courtesy of me. Glad to be travelling next week to avoid playing this game with world class D bags.

Sounds like I missed an epic end. See skyward soon.

Bean, he bailed because he was afraid. He left you all alone to face Ronnie's magical tracer show.
Kasey, he cursed you for bailing. Said he would never talk to you again. Called you a no good rage quitter.
Seriously. Great game. Thanks to both of you.
Tally Ho!

So I guess I made my first real enemy tonight.
Here's how it went:
I shoot him down near his carrier, then I'm approaching (dutifully with a bomb, mind you) and ACTUALLY wait for him to start moving after spawning before firing. He clears the deck and BLAM I grind him up like perfectly roasted Sulawesi fresh out the roaster.

$ChrisGPeter$: "Let me up."
Me: "You were up."
$ChrisGPeter$: "Hardly"
Me: "You cleared the deck"
$ChrisGPeter$: "but I wasn't stable". [whaaaa!]

Am I wrong? Am I spawn killer? Should I have asked if he's stable yet? Or, as rumor has it, does Chrissy not like his own medicine? I know the answer; I'm just mean, and relish my own improvement and triumph. I think he gunned for me specifically the rest of the game, which was big fun, especially win the "You Win!" window came up. .

Lies KA5EY! I'd never say these things. I thought it, but didna say it.

Were you inbound with a bomb? Then No, if not I'd say only if you did it over and over then yes, but one or two times, No

Parrot, he was not teamkilling. But he was a dirty-mouth, during the entire session! For no reason! Me and Rickenbaker asked him to stop swearing and stop saying bad words, but he kept yelling. I don't care of it at all, but I know that there was many kids on that session. This rotten fish was red, the same team as Rickenbaker, and they had only one hangar left to win; so I asked Rick to finish that session, but after a while, as I promissed to not quit games by myself, I decided to put and end on that mission, bombing my own hangar (I told Rick that I was going to do that). I know, it is not MOM's behavior, but I don't regret doing that.

But, as I said, I only complain against bad words in two situations:
1 - when the words are too long and too often in a manner that they takes all the screen, making it impossible to see planes and tanks; or
2 - when I am sure that there are kids on the same session.
Otherwise, I just ignore the bad-mouth.

Paul, I didn't get the "goose-step" or "turkey-trot" thing, sorry...
About reporting to tlacklist thread, I got it. Sorry for posting about the rotten fish here. Not doing it anymore, Sir!
About "facing the consequences here too", was it directed to me? If so, please let me know by PM.
And what is B.S. cover-up?

Pedro, I love that you don't get some of the expressions used here. It reminds m how ridiculous our language can be. I used to volunteer as an ESL instructor. My favorite part was the 10 minutes we reserved at the end of each class to explain euphemisms.

Goose step, refers to a type of marching. Watch old film of Russian or German soldiers marching. It means that we don't just keep in step because we are all part of the same group. If something smells fishy, we are going to call it out, not just accept it.

BS refers to bull poo. Just an abbreviation.

Plus one karma for you.

Good morning guy, I'm a MOM wannabe.
Thank you Captain for your response on your sweet pixie. I went to my neighbors barn yesterday, he has a beautiful ewe, about 2 feet 8 inches tall, about 82 lbs, lovely blue eyes and white hair. You should see her (um um um). Last thing she said when I left was " you baaaaassssstard" you have to go out of state to locate Virgin Wool.
It's strange living in Tennessee after growing up in southern calif. we were at a dance and someone yelled " hey it's a hoe down". All the woman dropped to the floor. I was doing repairs in one of my apartment when I heard a 12 year old girl yell "dad get off me" she screamed " you are crushing my cigarettes" if you see a beautiful girl in Tennessee that is still a virgin you can better believe she's a visitor. Tennessee had to pass a new law to slow the birth rate, they outlawed all family reunions.
Contrary to popular belief Tennessee women do have some teeth. 32 women in the same room usually constitutes a full set. Why the TOOTH brush was even invented in Tennessee , if it had been invented in another state then it would have been called a TEETH brush. I am DAVY CROCKETT, a MOM wannabe.

Thanks, PH. If you meant that euphemisms could make language "ridiculous", I disagree; they add spice in texts and in conversations, as many other language tricks do (I don't know how to say it in English, but in Portuguese these "tricks" are called "Figuras de Linguagem" - Language Figures, in English, I guess - am I right?)

But feel free to laugh and having fun with my "engrich"!

Close Pedro. We say "figure of speech". When I was teaching the English as a Second Language (ESL) class, it was highly entertaining to have these pointed out. I taught Spanish, Chinese, Turkish and god knows what else speakers English. The euphemisms, expressions, figures of speech, idioms or what ever you want to call them just pointed out how funny English can be. This is what I meant by ridiculous. I agree, it adds spice.

I specifically remember a young man from Rwanda, that was completely distressed because a coworker had told him his "goose was cooked". He was very confused. He asked me "'what this mean, he cooks my goose? I don't have a goose. Am I supposed to have a goose? Why he want to cook it? Are gooses bad in America? Why he no like my goose?" All of this was asked just like that, all one prolonged question/statement. I still laugh everytime. The same night he brought this up, it made another student from rural China ask why somebody was after his goat. The last 10 minutes of class just wouldn't sometimes. They would come in and start asking these things right off the bat. It was hilarious, but some of these folks were really perplexed and some upset. They were absolutely thrilled they had somebody to explain it to them.

Pedro, don’t put all your eggs in one basket with all these idioms. You see Parrot Head is all wool and a yard wide when it comes to helping a brotha out. I’m more of a soldier of fortune kinda dude but I’ve decided to change my ways and start a new thread called the DF Guidebook to help the noobs out. If you or anyone else would like to swing by my thread and share the burden, please feel free to do so by clicking here: Dogfight Guide Book I know Beanbooy knows his beans as well as Mean Ol Devil, and speaking of the Devil, Parrot Head is always gentle as a lamb, just ask Pixie
