				Oh, SO close.

				Had four kills in one battle tonight, and I got cocky and when for Ace.  I didn't see his partner, and got drilled.  DUMB.  Check six.

				DAMMIT!  Another four-kill outing.  Then I ran out of targets.
This is with a heavy fighter, folks.  No turning and burning, just straight out-of-the-clouds DEATH from multiple MG/cannon shells.
BOOM!  Turn, find enemy - BOOM, another kill.  Lather, rinse, repeat.
I'm getting an ace outing before the weekend is over...

It was a bust.  The two previous outings must have been really lucky, because I got my ass kicked today.  I was in the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong plane.  I did everything so wrong, I might have to stop flying for a little while.  It was really THAT bad.
I remember playing against Cowl.  It was Quake2, IIRC.  I swear, I respawned, ran one way - "POW" - he rail me from across the map.  Respawn in a totally different place, he'd be three with a rocket.  I swear, he was on top of me before I ever saw anyone else.  It was like magic.  A special nightmare magic where I was just a stats-padder for him.
That's what today was for me in WoWP.

				You can only go up from there.

				Well, it's been a while since I played World of Warplanes.  Today I got on, waited about 20 minutes for all the updates to load, climbed in my plane, and could do no wrong.  Three battles, in all of them I made ace.  Had one battle with six kills and a hat trick (three kills in a row, with no other shoot-downs by any other pilot).
I don't know what happened between this time and last time.  Planes are the same.  They are all buffed the same as they were before.  Maps are the same.  *shrug*
I still don't know how to search for other players and hook up in-game with them.

				I am the same, but maybe all those players that were so kicking my ass before have moved on to bigger and better aircraft, and I am the proverbial one-eyed man in the land of the blind.
