As some of you may have noticed there has been some conflict among several virtual Erich Hartmanns' regarding the right to use the luftwaffe experten's name on-line.
I have started a new thread with a challenge to all Erich Hartmann's flying on-line to the following:
Arrange a preset date and time on HL in a suitable mission room for a shoot-out, last man standing duel.
1. All contestants must fly the same plane (preferably the same model Bf109 that the real Hartmann flew most frequently (read: most missions), full real game settings.
2. Chose a "non-Hartmann", not associated with either contestants squadron, to generate a simple, low objects dogfight mission. Each Hartmann takes off from his base at the same time and the last one in the air, actually flying his plane, retains the right to use the name Hartmann. If you crash on take-off or otherwise cannot finish the mission, you are eliminated. All losers will forfeit that right and must change their name.
3. Since there may be other Hartmanns that want to join in on this duel, I would recommend that all fly at the same time, every pilot for himself. Elimination rounds would be out of the question considering the fact that there would be arguements about who would fly first against who, etc.
4. Further details could be worked out using a moderator as the final word.
If you are all great pilots and feel that you deserve the "right" to wear the name of Erich Hartmann, here is your chance to prove it. Also if the name means so much to you personally, you will show up and fight for the right. There it is. Either put-up or shut your pie-hole.

I have a better idea !! Lets all be Hartmann !!

I have never professed to be an outstanding virual pilot. I do however quite enjoy the game as a way to relax after a long day at work for an hour or so after the wife and kids are in bed. I would be sure to lose. I do like my name and intend to keep it. I for one have never had a problem with anyone else calling themselves Hartmann.

Technical problems must be at a minimum. If there are serious lag problems during the first 5 minutes (take off and getting on course), either player may call an abort and reschedule mission. This will only be allowed one time per player to eliminate stalling. Acts of God (or Oleg) nonwithstanding the mission must then be flown and the players will have to accomadate to the technical problem.
Ifthe server goes down in mid-duel before a winner can be determined, there will be a reschedule of the event.

Well that eliminates one Erich Hartmann !!
It seems that there are a couple more out there. Any takers. It has been awfully quiet since I made this suggestion. I haven't heard from Hartmann II/JG1 at http://www.jagdgeschwader1.com yet

My post was not to duel anyone for the right to the name it was more to do with why someone would select the name that another cyber pilot already had. More of an issue was the unit name stuff but that slid into the muck as well since its a proven fact you can't have a civial post on forums.
I have no need to "duel" anyone and it would prove nothing since as GAF_Hartmann says I'm not the best cyber pilot just an avid gamer that was looking for some clarification and community feedback. However, I allowed myself to get sucked into post debates again and will just leave you all to your ways.

I think I will just place you on my ignore list. You bring nothing to the table excpet disdain and by posting your real name and all the other fluff it does nothing to your credibility except raise the bar for your borish behaviour. I did not post anywhere that people stole the Hartmann name just to iritate me so please get your facts straight.
I think I'm actually a fairly good cyber pilot I jsut dont get shooting of my mouth about it and dont need to enter into worthless duels.
I dont expect anyone to change their name as a result of some combat that wont happen and never intended that. My goal as I stated before was to bring awareness. I think that has worked.
So dont bring nads into the equation because that has nothing to do with it and if your such an outstanding soldier you should know better.
That is all.....
