Yeah great games I wish I hadn't crashed so much without provocation from you though lol.

I think when my engine died I had clipped some water with my belly or something (probably broke my prop). Whatever happened I was basically flying a glider before we even engaged. Less embarassing than flying into a tree for my first death of the first game though

And shame on me for making the mistake of assuming you were plummeting to earth because you were streaming black smoke. That assumption cost me a life.

But full on kudos to you for scraping victory from the jaws of a draw in the last 5 seconds of the second round when you put a cannon shell straight through my engine block to cause a fireball before I even knew you were in a firing position.

Great games - well played


P.S: I knew you were hustling me

P.P.S: apoplogies to Hrok who came on just after these games, at which point I was out for blood. Sorry matey

P.P.P.S: I forgot to send my screenshot to edal, but I'll do it tonight - I tried to do it from the game, but you can't attach images when you're playing something.

I also had my fair share of crashes too, from trying to avoid getting my arse shot off.
So you the engine died at low level? That makes more sense... I thought it had died when you spawned or something. That would have been very weird.

Some good news for you though, you won the second game... its would have been a draw if I'd gotten another kill after that last minute fluke engine shot , but I'm sure I had more crashes than you.

And seriously, no hustling involved... I was half cut.... the booze seemed to have a positive effect on my flying skills though, which was unexpected

I mean the net over all total - I think (but could be mistaken) that you won your home match by 2 and I won mine by 1. But hey - at least it wasn't a whitewash like my match against Mirgervin.

I did think it could have gone either way when you said you were drinking. Maybe I should have given you another half hour or so

You basically hustled yourself as well as me lmao. Great fun though - good times.

I'll be on tonight (Wednesday) and tomorrow (Thursday) night so hopefully that suits you also.

May I apologise in advance if we find it difficult to get the match going as my bandwidth is considerably below average however once running the matches generally procede lag free.

And also for my recent non-attendance, recently bought a new PC so my home network has been somewhat hectic recently, firing on all cylinders (and guns and cannons I hope) now though.

EDIT: Edal86, has there been a confirmed opponent to replace BeamJimmy after his withdrawal? I believe I'm due to play them before Friday.

EDIT of the EDIT: Mage_016 Just to confirm, by "night" I mean ~6pm until around midnight, I'll be checking on every once in a while but if you let me know a time I'll make sure to be ready to go for then.

Edal, can we play our game whenever (as soon as) possible, which from the sound of it will not be before Friday...?
ok to avoid this i sugest
edal can you let unfinished games be played till the end of the stage so the cutoff is when points are totaled and people drop out however guys please try and finish on time since we all like to know whats happening

I appreciate there are and will be (especially when the locations are merged, i.e. UK vs US) scheduling issues...

But seriously? A 2 hour window in an entire week? That has to be pretty much worse case

Lol mate first game I think i didn't even fire a single shell (Infinite won 10-0)!!
The only way I had to locate you was by looking the holes on my plane and guessing where the hits came from
Luckily it was quick..

@maninovka: I sent you a pm here and on psn. Just in case, I'll be online tonight at 11pm gmt+1, might be a 10-15 minutes late though

Does anyone know varcus2? I just can't find him..
