Pirah: I must admit I haven't followed the whole argument between you and andybob, and I can't speak for him, but speaking in general, and to say it in your language: Qui sème le vent récolte la tempête.
Don't act all innocent here.

pirahpac, you're fast, faster than most, me included.
Doesn't refrain you from being a dick tho.
I love you too OBH. :p
/thread end
I think what you just said then Cowboy. Is going to push Pih over the edge.
Can we mark this thread kids only, Lance?
Why is it always my threads that descend into this rubbish? I dont even cause it.
If my threads get locked can you guys at least let it be me whos a dick :)
I told you, you've rubbed off on us ;)
Back on track: After last night I've decided OBH is a rival of mine...even if he was a little worse for wear mentally :P
@ACE: LaiN is a rapid Austrian :D
My apprentice is Fantmusik, but soon I'll have a new apprentice called ACE-FLO or something similar :P
...Something similiar... like Jedi_Mind_Trick (already taken, sorry)!!!:guitar:rock
@Pbs. I agree.
@El habib. All of this and also many threads here are about ego (and ego sometimes leads to jealousy). I remember that you were very active on tt/sl boards when HD was released, but once Ah quadzillah, Flashback_jack, Pirahpac, Asayyeah, Larikun, Wellington or Mad_Ice started to push the contest level further, you slowly disappeared from the boards (same with you Djkyoto).
Why ?
I have a theory : You like (as me, as lot of people here) to be on the top places !!
It's human, and sometimes it can leads to great motivation for overpassing his own possibilities.
But it seems that you only wants the FIRST place when you compete !!
Or if not, why did you gave up from that competition ?
So, maybe you're not at all jealous, but i can wonder, no ?
About that, the real aces i know at wipeout, never wants only the first place !
That don't means that they can't reach it !!! I think about Wotan, Mad-Ice, Kingheim, Eric7dm, Asayyeah, Kanar, Pirahpac.
Pirahpac can be very harsh, but he barely starts the fight (sometimes, i must admit that his bad understanding of english don't helps, lol).
Biggest problem here is that people talk too fast, without knowing all the details on any subject. Lot of people talked about bsb, without even trying to do it or seeing a video :rolleyes: people talks about tt/sl without knowing how the level field is high (except of course of the newcomers on the game), and how difficult are some shortcuts or br.
this thread is full of bullshit tbh.
Yeah !!
The idea of "who's you're rival at this game" was pretty risky, lol.
im thinking Rob will close this thread by weekend ends, given that he is around. I dont see him around much after the Rep Saga.
Not really. Right up until page 8 where andy called pirahpac pirashite there was nothing malicious in here at all. Was just a great way to find out what players really go out their way to try and beat you :) was great fun.
Im getting pig sick of this infesting every other topic here.
Oh, bloody ****ing hell. This flaming crap agAin?
I had closed the thread, and have now reopened it. You will notice that both andybob35 and pirahpac have had their posting privileges removed due to excessive points given for infractions for insults and trolling inflammatory remarks in several posts each. Those of you who also participated in a lesser way by involving yourselves in discussing their behaviour should also be watching your own selves for potential infractions.
There appears to be less drama when you set your posts per page setting higher than the default.
Some people probably have to do that (Including me setting it higher than it already is), some kind of placebo effect perhaps.
I set it higher than default long ago for the sake of efficiency in modding back when I only had dial-up. But there was still too much drama on this thread, too little maturity and civility.
And now, back to the topic, keeping it civilised this time.
"About that, the real aces i know at wipeout, never wants only the first place !
That don't means that they can't reach it !!! I think about Wotan, Mad-Ice, Kingheim, Eric7dm, Asayyeah, Kanar, Pirahpac."
El Habib may be the top pilot, he won the European tourney for HD, don't forget that. If he is not the best, he is close to it. I don't think it an easy task to beat mad ice and arnaud in the same room as you :) times are one thing, competing head to head is another.
I know, I wasn't saying for you, for the others, you know ;)
I only have friendly competition.
IMO I feel we should all be part of one big family and enjoy playing the game together. Now this is what OBH meant with "rivals" though it is apparent some understood the more "extreme" meaning, and I have none of those. My main rival is myself ****ing up unexplainably (not a word, don't use it) all the time.
So yeah sorry if I annoyed other people in other thread (again), I really don't want to. :)
I know El Habib is a great pilot, that's why he should come back on the competition, it was very fun at the begining of HD and with the TT/SL challenge on the arena's thread (Kaori's challenge too).
And i agree with you, those old lions like Asa and Mad-Ice are always able to kick *ss ! ;)
I agree with you too Dark, my best (or worst, lol) rival is myself. When i miss easy br on sl/tt or respawn online or explode because of a wrong decision in item use, :lol.
Might I add... I Send nice messages to players who Can at least keep up with me in 2nd place, I dont ever recall him beating me :dizzy
I actually have a list here of people that can beat me XD
Back on Topic: Ive aways had a rivalry with TCK. Hes the one person I WONT Shoot online... Sometimes.... my trigger finger DOES get itchy...
Leungbok, I would love to be able to play competitively, but right now, work does not leave me with enough free time to really practice - when I have time to play, I'd rather have some quick fun races online than flying alone in TT or SL.
Some of the Fury tracks are still a complete jungle to me, because I haven't even had the chance to practice them at all - it would take several weeks of intense training to be back at your level, and right now, that's something I can't afford. Still, I hope I can put up a reasonable challenge to you if I see you online :)
I'm sure you're still a tough opponent online.
Myself, i will have no time to play 'till christmas :(
But i'm patient and i will come back very motivated for 2010. ;)
Im sure the original woHD SL/TT competition was awesome. Im only getting into TT now (top 4 for CP on all speeds! :g a good start!)
Though, in my eyes at least, the fact that the competition was better before than it is now proves a point, that the need to bsb to be seriously competative just isnt fun for many people.
TT on the other hand! im loving it. Ive set a goal (a rather lofty goal it must be said!) to top pirahpac in as many TT times as i can :) a benchmark has been set!
}wonders if, in the interest of tranquillity, there's a way to auto-block the letter combination "bsb" from appearing in posts.{ hm.... of course there is, if the software can block ****, it can block bsb. :g
Please mate, don't overestimate the effect of bsb for the motivation of pilots.
Tables, one month before the possibility of using select, were the same than after. So, people gave up before for other reasons (work, Wifes ^^, bored by too much playing or "what ?? Pilot-assist slows you down ?" ;)) !
@Lance. It could be great, yes !
People need to let stuff drop.
So, back onto rivalries. I don't feel like I can really have any these days. The playing field has become so even when racing that there never really seems to be one person that is way faster every single time. Maybe that's just because Wotan and Elois went on holiday or something. But still, my rivals along the way have been people who I had close races with and I could therefore measure my ability against, and they were the same people who I've seen improving with me from the beginning. But everyone on this forum has been improving. Those who didn't just stopped playing. I think the overall level has really risen and risen since the start. Now it's starting to tail off and those who were a bit slower before are catching up, and the rest of the time, they're already ahead. So I think we're all each other's rivals now. You can't underestimate anyone.
lol +rep..you posted on topic..:nod:nod
seriously..you speak the truth..though i still have much catching up to do myself..but i will be there sooner or later ..i hope:)
I have avenged my personal rivalry - AG-SYSTEMS toast. :rock
