To Edal and Infinitestates:

I'm really sorry I wasn't on when you messaged me. My brother was playing... I get of of school tomorrow at 4pm PST (midnight GMT I think) so I'll be there :)

Ace of Aces coming to an end, "It has been a pleasure"
 

It would be nice to get a screenshot of 1st, 2nd and 3rd place participants in sort of an "aerial podium" formation to commemorate this tournament with.

Good luck to you all :grin: may the best man win,

Id also like the chance to say a big huge thankyou to edal for setting up this Ace of Aces tournament as it has been great fun and have learned quite alot from it. Cheers edal, Top man

I'd like to echo these sentiments, this tournament has made this game live for me and put me in contact with a lot of players I really enjoy playing with. I don't think the PS3 Birds of Prey community made this tournament, I think this tournament made the community.

That would be sweet - maybe fourth place could organise it. I would be more than happy, especially as all the top four are online most nights.

LOL Edal, you put yourself in the wrong final box :) :P But thanks a million for this tournament and the other - it really has rekindled a community out of the embers. Every night I see more than half my online friends playing IL2.

ok is there a bookies anywhere 1mill on edal please

I like this idea. we can scedule the 3rd place match and the final on the same day and time, so after we finish it we can all enter dogfight match and take some screenshots :)

Finals Pay Per View
 

I'm not letting go of this idea guys ;)

- Edal, do you have some video capturing equipment?

- Infinite, in case you're in the final, do you have some?

- Perhaps (with players permission) a third player with equipment to provide external view footage, plus footage from an extra aerial footage session, for external views of the players's crates, scenery, formation of first three, as was suggested

It would be a lost opportunity for generations to come, not to have this documented.

I'm willing to organise what is needed.

MACADEMIC

No, I can't capture unfortunately. I would love to be able to, but surround sound is first on the list when I find a spare £150...

Plus, I've got to play Mirgervin so it's probably moot anyway :-P

EDIT: Although I gather anyone with a DVD recorder can capture, but it's a bit of a long winded process... play the PS3 through the recorder and record the output to DVD. Then rip the ISO on PC and convert to AVI or something...? It's all theory that I read somewhere so couldn't tell you if it would work. Sounds feasible to me though.
