Another nice LRM story

As we all move off, im running the side flank with the lights on the ridge, hoping from cover to cover, I see someone in a heavy attempting the mad straight line dash for the center hill, so i hold lock on him and watch my team rain down the lurms, as im adding my own 20 shot volleys to the fun. He continues to power to the hill, running across the most open central section of the map in a vain attempt to reach the hill instead of taking cover. You know what comes next......due to the multiple people raining lurms on his mad dash in the open......POP, BANG and i get the lucky hit that awards me the kill....... so I "LOL" in open chat.
well omfg, "that took skill" and "go sit on a plunger" was the response from the dead scrub, who then promptly rage disconnected after having been the first to die without doing a single point of damage, in the first 60 sec's of the round.
lesson here people, if you don't like lurms, don't stand in the open solo without an ECM and hope they are not going to hit you. Don't keep powering on to your favored camping stop, especially on a map that is cover heavy to avoid the lurm rain.
Yes it took zero skill apart from positioning myself as such that i could hold a lock on a player for 20 sec's straight who was totally exposed. It took zero skill for me to gain a further 3 kills in that round because the enemy was one player down in the first 60 sec's.
but it was funny as all **** to watch a player attempt to dash across an open location to reach a hill while totally ignoring the rain for sustained time, to die miserably and pointlessly gimping his team early on. That was why i lol'd.

Seems the LRM is making a small comeback. You and your teammates took advantage of that, and of Billy Bad Idea's ramblin' rampage to Noob Knob (sounds like a kids' movie, eh?).
I LOL with you, sir.

yup, the rest of his team were powering down the opposite flank to do a base rush, he did this hill take solo.
just amazed at people who stand in the rain and then complain at getting wet.

My only regret is that I can only 'like' this once.

Well, while we're on the topic of funny insults.. Long ago, I was in a match that was an absolute no contest, landslide. Other team just gets demolished.
The last mechs were getting sweeped up and a guy types in chat:
"I'm not a garbage man."
"I can't carry trash."
Presumably followed by dropping the mic and walking off stage.

its an option you have to enable in setting to be able to global chat, and one that is well worth it for moments like these.
