Warhawk Omegathread

[DaMexiRican]

I got some other messages from other teams but I went to the board that says "my matches". I can make the 6:30, 7, and probably 10 pm matches for the 31st. I can make both matches on sunday. At 1 and 4 pm.

I will do May 31:
930PM
10PM

That's it for now. If the wife ends up working on Sunday - I can join some of those too, but right now - probably not. If I am around - I'll jump on to see if I'm needed - but nothing to count on.

By the way - a suggestion:
If we don't get penalized for not accepting matches, I would suggest either scheduling 2 matches within the same our - or only accepting one. When we spread the matches out over the day it makes it hard to be able to dedicate that much of the day.

Here is who I have down so far for upcoming matches... if you can't make one of these times or you can fill in one of the open spots let me know. I am still waiting to confirm a couple of matches for squad size. It would be nice to have some players waiting in the wings in case somebody has problems...

Yeah we get penalized for declining matches... If there is scheduling conflicts I usually send them alternative dates... I understand about the spread out deal... but with 16 players on the team and most of our matches are going to 6 vs 6 we should be able to field them.

I can do the 4 & 7pm slots on June 1st - I have that day off so I'll be able to warm up a bit beforehand as well.

I'm questionable on May 31st for the 10pm slot, but the others I won't be able to do unless I get incredibly lucky.

Colorado can you scratch me from the 7:30pm on the 31st? I forgot I told my girl I was gonna take her to the movies after she gets off work. I'm still good for every other time.

If at any time I am at home and sitting around (plans fell through ect.) I'll log in to see if you need the extra person. I never know - I'd like to be a part of everyone that I can. I'll let you know as much in advance as possible if the situation allows.

What? She can't watch the movie called, Warhawk! I heard CYMBOL is in it, so it must be good!!!

LOL. She'll probably get dizzy watching.

[MacDaddyOJack]

Colorado,

I can make all three games on Sat, although I see that you are already full for one that day.

I can also make the second two games on Sunday, I have a soccer game that morning and can't make the first one.

[JonD7]

I can make anything after 3pm, I can try to make tomorrows games... not really positive as tomorrow is my birthday and my brothers might be here.

Can you make the late match on Sat. it'd be 10PM your time I believe.

[JonD7]

yeah, my brothers usually leave at 8pm so i'll be there for sure!

FYI. If you see a player named JackScofield, RUN. I think his average score in CTF tonight was around 130. I saw it go as high as 176. He would have like 40 or so kills, usually 1 or 2 flag captures and the rest team and combat points. It was crazy. I hope we don't have them scheduled for a match anytime soon.

How many players? If 32 or 22 - that's pretty good. I got my first over 100 score in 22 yesterday (since I've been back).

In 8 vs 8 - I usually get in the 100's. If you are going for rank, I highly recommend the small games - as you're more likely to get high kill counts and flag caps/returns. I think my highest score was 376 or something just shy of 400 (I don't count playing a outnumbered crew - think I got in the 600's once, but it wasn't fair).

Last night, I was having a hard time and wondering what the hell my other teammates were doing, seemed like I was fighting everyone at once - I had Warhawk Team with 42 points! Of course, we only had 3 people vs. their 10.

Points are a good measurement - I always feel better when my name is in the top five; however, some people will sit back and guard the flag all day and end up with high point counts also. It can be hard to judge.

The first 3 games are password protected... I will have the pw posted above my head in my comments on your xmb... We still need 2 for the later night/early morning game that is at 1AM EST or 10PM PST

It was a 32 player match. He doesn't have an overall score very high yet, but at that rate it will not take him long. He did like to use the tow missile a lot I noticed (and every other weapon). It was nice when I was on his team though, when someone got the flag he cleared the skies and ground all the way back. When I wasn't on his team though it seemed like there was only 3 or 4 of us that were doing anything. Its hard to get the flag carrier when you are just trying to stay alive against a bunch of warhawks. Especially when 1 of them is an excellent flyer.

1 amazing flyer can make a team. I can use a Warhawk against ground troops just fine and not get shot down very often - but if someone is a good dogfighter - I just can't compete.

I may start trying to get in Warhawks more when I play (when not in tourneys). I may not be much use to the team at first, but hopefully I'll be better as I get more proficient in a plane (again, I was getting there before I left for 4 months).

Actually the first game is not password protected but the next 3 are. I will post the pw's as comments still in the order that they are going to be used.
