So simple, yet.....
If you watch Nascar on TV, everyone turns left
No exceptions

Its not like half the field NASCARS and the other half do something else

That why when two teams turn left , rotate its Nascar

Well if people just define "works" as in "one team wins at the end" then it works...but then so do many other things Posted Image

I think the people involved in this debate think it's far more amusing to spectate than it actually is. Or maybe they're actually enjoying repeating themselves, I don't know, I guess that's their prerogative.

But for the record, I'd say this thread lost it's ability to be amusing pages back, and now it's not doing any of the people involved any favors.

Unless of course you all legitimately think you're going to change each other's hearts and minds, then I guess have at it forever in an endless cycle of repeating the same arguments back and forth for eternity.

I thought this became an experiment in how long you can keep a useless thread going many pages ago.

Nascar is when a team rotates counter clockwise with no regard for their own or the enemy teams position. It takes 1 team to nascar. Nascar fails most of the time.

Nascar is the rotation of all players around a central point. How is this sooo hard to understand haha? You can't have just one team nascaring because then it isn't a nascar. Again, nascar is *specifically* the moment where *both* teams are chasing each other's tails. To chase each other's tails *both* teams must be in motion. Since nascar involves both teams, it is therefore accurate to say that it works 100% of the time, since one team will eventually come off victorious.

Why is it when mechs in your firing line start to turn right and run, everyone yells "Stop Nascaring" without knowing if mechs on the other team are doing the same?

Because they are imbeciles, obviously. If someone shouts "stop knitting" on voice comms when a player is causing friendly fire damage, would you then also call friendly fire damage "knitting"? Of course not. If your team begins to rotate you can assume that it is because someone ahead saw the enemy flank collapse, or has began a push. Anyone who yells "durr don't move!" at that point only has themselves to blame for what follows. Since that appears to be you more often than not (you admit that "nascar fails" most of the time) I can only surmise that your tactical grasp of the game is about as good as your grasp on nomenclature - each time "nascar failed" for you, it succeeded for the enemy team. Ergo, nascar has a 100% success rate by your own admission.

I can't believe we're still doing this, but ok.

You absolutely should not assume that because your team begins to rotate it's because someone ahead saw "the enemy flank collapse", nascar is the idiotic action when a few individuals see contact and out of fear start running right, and the chain reaction that may follow. If your team actually saw a weakness in the enemy formation and moves into a better position to exploit it while maintaining contact with the enemy that is flanking, if your team just sees mechs left and runs right that is nascar. Nascar doesn't take into account what's happening on the field, it results in mechs not firing their weapons because they're too busy rotating, and will in most cases result in you giving up a superior position in order to mindlessly rotate (sometimes multiple times in 1 drop). The only way nascar succeeds is if the other team chooses to also nascar since if one team nascars and the other holds a strong position, the team that holds the strong position will win because they will initially be in a situation where the enemy nascar only has a few mechs at the front who are charging into a well established defensive position, preferably a choke point.

This is incorrect, Nascar is the rotation of all players around a central point. You can't have just one team nascaring because then it isn't a nascar.

In fact, one might even say that this thread is nascaring right now - two posters are going around in circles. Since one of us will inevitably get the last word before the thread is locked, it is accurate to say that even in real life, nascar has a 100% success rate.

I have, I especially enjoyed the part where you think you have better "tactical grasp of the game" because you disagree with me over the meaning of the term nascar.

Nascar is specifically the result of two teams attempting to rotate into the back of one another.

It takes two teams to nascar. One team will lose. Nascar works every time

We all love nascar because of the beer and nekked b___s! And some times someone crashes. Like a train wreck in action you want to see how badly it can end.
