One thing about the LTard's, if they were in GV's it was time for me to leave.
LTAR . . . Lead To Air Ratio.
Meaning, if you get the ratio correct, you are bound to hit something.

I took special joy in letting people take a shot at me.
That would explain why it was like clubbing a baby seal.
That said, the sentiment involved in just letting people beet you? There isn't a single brain cell in my head that can comprehend that.

I doubt you remember clubbing me in anything, but we all looked (mostly) alike, and some weren't very good pilots. Most of the squaddies used the R in LTAR to make their names. LTARokit, LTARifle, etc. or ignored it completely like LTARmoil, LTARmedc or LTARcnuk. Don't remember a whole lot of them anymore, but it was quite a full squad when I was with them.
I was LTARget. "Proudly drawing fire so my brothers may pass unharmed."
That's in my sig for a reason. No one really dies in a cartoon game, so I had no problem playing the rabbit. Others were better shots than me in the Osti (there was no Wirbie then), so while they all ran GVs out, I upped planes to bring in the vulchers, or came from a nearby base to drag chasers across the field swarming with squaddies gleefully making fireworks.
So in that context if you remember vulching me several times or pwning me when I was heavily outnumbered in the first place, sure, I guess so. I never considered myself to be the seal to anyone's club. Unless I was flying buffs. Never got the hang of being the tail gunner for whatever reason.
Oh, and 999000 . . . Maybe one time in 30 he didn't make me feel completely stupid for coming within 1.0 of his 17s.
Oh, sorry, forgot that there was always a standard reply for that . . . ."FILM, OR IT NEVER HAPPENED!"

I do remember you as LTarget and I don't recall you ever really putting up a fight so yeah, it was kinda like clubbing a baby seal. Not that I've ever actually clubbed a baby seal...
I don't have any of my old films so....
Al's best stuff was the non-parody stuff..

Funny, I don't remember you at all.
Was your ingame name Elfie?
Yes.
Yes.
OK, cool. This might be fun. Or maybe I'll get bored with it quickly . . . . We'll see.
My first tour as LTARget was #77, in June of 2006. Since Hitech puts all his stats on his webpage, we can see how many times we encountered one another and in what. Not surprisingly, no encounters.
I had 93 kills (+4 in ships gunner), 83 deaths. Better than even, but nothing to write home about.
Elfie had 398 kills and 120 deaths (nice!).
Best vehicle, Tempest with 167 kills and 5 deaths. One of these kills was LTARhntr in a Spitty XVI,
Also found that one of your kills in a Yak 9t was LTARaven in a F4U-1D
Also found one of your kills in an F4U-1 was Bronk flying an La-7.
In your death stats, one of your worst vehicles is the PzIV with 13 kills and 40 deaths.
Of those 40 deaths, LTARghst killed you once from a PzIV, LTARcnuk killed you 5 times from a 4, and LTARaptr killed you 2 times from an Osti.
Also found Bronk killed you in your F4U-1 while flying an La-7.
SO:
Elfie vs. LTARget, 0-0
Elfie vs. all other LTARs, 2-8
Elfie vs. Bronk 1-1 (just because it made me giggle to see it)
Heading to bed, probably 18-20 tours to go to see if your seal clubbing memory holds up.

Always likes you LTAR guys. We used to hook up quite a bit when I was with Rolling Thunder. My favorite LTAR memory was getting jumped while I was RTB out of ammo. I could barely stay out of gun range of the guy and put out a call for help. An LTAR responded with "what do you need"? I told him to spawn a wirble at base X and sit in front of the fighter hanger. I let him get close and dragged the guy through the hanger and flared straight up and the LTAR gave the guy a face full of flak. It was glorious . And dam that guy was pissed.
They were a great bunch to fight with and against.

This should be interesting because no one's memory is perfect. I just might stand corrected.

This is hilarious.
