This player turns up again in a SIM game hosted by an excellent flyer, Unfortunately his first encounter is with the host who promptly shot him down within minutes of the start....he quit and left his team a man short. I had to laugh even though he was on my team. Next session starts and he jumps in again....(jeez...you gotta be kidding I thought!).....the teams are random but he is in the stronger formation with experienced SIM players....this team wins and....yeah you guessed........ he didn't quit....says it all really!

though i never played simulator, the hardest i have venture is realistic, I never quit a game, that just shows u are not a good player. And I don't mean a good pilot, but a good host or visitor. U have to keep flying no matter if u are winning or losing. I have sometimes played in teams in CA were we start even. Then the only guy playing in my team is just me vs 2, 3 or even 4 guys. Some of them pitty u and let u land then do silly stuff, others just keep killing u. For instance I once played in a group of 4 on 4. then all my partners quit and i was alone. Finally after letting my score drop to 50 the other team of 4 decided to let me land and capture the airfield. They though i was a noobi, since the only thing i kept doing throughout the game was land [no shooting] then they let me win the game. later they wrote me that they had send a message to the quiters. "Had u guys help him out, u could have won, he was on fire, got each of us 10 after he capture the airfield". a false thing that i got each of them 10 times, but true that i won the game. I was surprise about this outcome.

Months later, in strike I playe on a team of 6 vs 4 [2 just join my team because i had the b17]. as the game was almost over i stopped bombing the other team bases to a score of 30 vs our score of 500. The opposite team only had one brave he111 remaining who kept playing even when the other 3 players had quit. Then, I decided to go crazy and help that bomber, so i did. Burn my bases in no time and the he111 won the game. I later wrote "Not a gift from Rommel, but a way to show fairness, Thank u for the game my friend".

You're a top bloke mate!
You play the game with the ethos it warrants and I take off my pilots helmet to you!
