Gents If 10 pilots choose to fly Allied, and 2 choose to fly German, would we all agree that is reasonable? Guys, the uneven game was my fault. When the game started, I was the first one in, and I took the opportunity to play on the allied side. But later in the game, I wanted to be on the same side as Swordfish (who was on the German side), and because he was on Teamspeak with me, and I wanted to be his wing-man. I switched sides (from allied to huns) and didn't think that the game would be uneven for long.
Yes, we know it was your fault. ....next time you want to sit next to your girl friend...wait till recess.

After the smoke clears...no big deal and something was figured out. For what it is worth, if I had been flying German I likely would have changed sides once it appeared clear that it was a time to solve the problem. Many of us have had that opportunity in longer wars and folks have real life schedules to go to, and have to leave the war.
Cool

Do any of you think the allies would have won if I had not switched sides in the middle of the game?

Gents If 10 pilots choose to fly Allied, and 2 choose to fly German, would we all agree that is reasonable? The scores say Total Central Pilots 7, Total Allied pilots 6. We know that Tarbo switched sides, for reasons that he has explained, but that only means that it was 7-5 in favour of the huns. I don't understand the numbers that Swampfox refer to. If the allieds need more pilots, they must offer better pay or other fringe benefits ...

The facts...it was 5h 3a for the first half hour due to someone changing sides...then when pointed out the huns whistled, stared at the sky, and ignored the situation like someone whose dog is taking a dump in the park... it was unfortunate, unlikely to happen again, move on.

Wow, I miss a Sat and everything goes to heck. Unfortunately I may be out the next 2 or 3 weeks as well; like last summer, I can't make them as often.
Tarbo, don't be hard on yourself, there are many factors that sway the outcome of these wars.

A fun tempest in a teapot. The variables in a cube of space...distance, time, % ratios of pilots...skills....in a small number of pilots, 2x up is a huge potential advantage. Fortunately, this has virtually never happened (the unbalance not being addressed) in the last ten years and my observation is that everyone gets really uncomfortable and tend to do something about it right away.
"If" we had 20 pilots last week, 2x up would be practically moot.
