I just promoted myself from Captain to Major in SAW squadron for winning 2 private FFA matches. Here's the ranking order and the number of winning match required to move up the rank in SAW: - No rank - 2nd Lieutenant (win 1 private match): 1 match total - 1st Lieutenant (win 1 private match): 2 match total - Captain (win 1 private match): 3 - Major (win 2 private match): 5 - Lieutenant Colonel (win 2 private match): 7 - Colonel (win 2 private match): 9 - Ace (win 3 private match): 12 - Meister (win 3 private match): 15 So need to win total 15 matches to achieve the highest rank. The 3 founders of SAW will start as Captain. The 4th player to 12th player will start as 1st Lt and the 13th player to 20th player will start as 2nd Lt. This is to recognize the early members.
Strolling through town w/[MOB]Kiss Okay, so I'm flying through the small town with the river & train and think I'm pretty slick and next thing I see is [MOB]Kiss fly just over my head . . . upside down! I've been humbled
Ha! Smooth move by the Mobster though. I was in an FFA in that map last week, and had a pretty good game, my battery was running out and I said GG!, Adios! and got a few replies in kind. So, because I was near the bridge, I did a big ol' rolling loop and flashed under the bridge on my way out. Adios! Pretty cool I thought. Tried it again the next time in there and slammed smack into the damn thing. That time I was hoping no one was paying any attention.
GG today Handy...that Z2 sure packs some punch...You going to be flying more now? Or is it just a fluke we been seeing you around more lately???
It's not letting me send it again. I sent it to your SAB Handy FB account... hummmm perhaps you could use the FB search function to search for Sgarrista Air Brigade, then send a request to join. You should see it though as you are listed as having not yet replied.
GG, Orion! Sorry I couldn't hang around. I went into that room running on fumes, thinking I could work in a few more runs. Too bad I didn't have the battery for it, that was shaping up to be a good one.
That was a good one buddy! I just got done from there a few minutes ago. It was my only game and I stuck around for like an hour and a half in there. It seemed like everyone came and went in that game at one point or another It was fun indeed!
Speaking of playing for an hour and a half, has anyone here had to deal with a real case of sore thumbs? I thought references to sore sore hands was mostly making jokes about playing too much. But I think I'm working on an actual case of Carpal Thumb syndrome! Seriously, might to have to lay off for awhile.
Sore hands and thumbs here bro...I have a serious pressure sore that looks like a wart on the side of my middle-finger left hand that now rubs against my pointer finger!!!! No joke, I've had to put a bandaid on just so I could continue playing!!! I thought of snapping a pic of it and putting caption "What has SoG done to your health?"
Heh, man, there's got to be a medical study here. As well as a sociological study! "The Socio/Medical Ramifications of Extended SoG Play in Homo Sapiens" (adverse effects on health, relationships and careers).
Hey Pirhanna, thanks for the rocketry lesson! You got me real good!!! I've been playing a bit more lately. I don't know if it's a fluke or not... For a while there I was playing about once a week. I guess I've picked it up again. And by the way, that wasn't a Z2 I was in. It's the white Hien, aka the lightningbolt. It's fairly effective against the Z3. Great maneuverability and firepower, although the armor is not that strong. GG!!!
That white Hein II is beauty. I've written SGN several times asking about it but to no avail. And I don't remember my thumbs getting sore. On the contrary, they went numb! =-p
Zetor D-: Ran into Zetor today. Luckily, I was on the same team, so I didn't get any kills. Seems to have toned down his killing rate some. Still pretty quick.
I just don't get the thrill of hacking a game just to go in and blast everyone out of the sky by the push of a button...and to have kept doing it this long...this guy needs a life
