...How in Cthulhu's name (may he eat that PM's soul) do you even do that?

notice my reasoning that got entirely ignored.

its noob because it is popularly used by noobs and evidently poorly utilised.

Its a typical noob build. Because noobs discover the power of a manticore and then spam it with no understanding of how to take full advantage nor understand the disadvantages.

Hence I look at a quad hwacha and laugh. Because its usually flown by a 111 pilot that tried a goldfish and thought... "I was moar"


and ppl can miss with lag. Sniping with lag is a nightmare.

But But it was a flamethrower. You literally can't miss.

really bad lag?

Might be one of those lags where ships are frozen in place and the noob was flaming that one position.

Even with lag, you cannot miss with a flamer.  Also, you make a good point there, but you said NONE of that in your first post.  All you really conveyed was 'LOL HWACHA = NOOB'

*ahem*

There was some confusion on the origin of Cake on the last page, so let me take this opportunity to clear a few things up.

Where 'Cake was founded' really depends on your definition of 'founded.'

The IDEA for Cake came from an inside joke revolving around a three banshee double flamer Junker, but the first all-Cake crew flew together on a 5 banshee mobula.

The latter case is when we malleted out a lot of the details of the clan, such as our love of fire weapons and the proper use of the term 'Happy Birthday.'


Now. To carry on with the lingo:

GGHB stands for Good Game, Happy Birthday.
Feel free to ask whose birthday it is, we will respond with 'yours.'

Feel free to deny that it is your birthday, because that just makes it your unbirthday.

nop its in there. Its one of those ignored sentences and just selectively looking the thing that makes them buttmad.

English major here. You, sir, did not make that clear, so please don't insult us for not decoding you hidden message \o/
You said noting about why it's a "noob ship", other than that it's very popular with new players. A) it's a preset build and B) Every ship is poorly utilized by new players. That's because they're new "players. Futhermore, you made a blanket statement about hwacha heavy builds which, in calling it a noob ship, means that all the other good players who use a hwacha fish also are driving "noob ships"    Just admit when you've worded something awkwardly and don't insult people for misunderstanding you

edit: holy passive agressive, batman. Not mad, for the record, but this is phrased kind of confrontational, which it's not meant to be.

[ShadedExalt]

Thank you for that, DJ.  I just couldn't find the right words.
