GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY

[Kelen]

We've all been in the situation more than once where we know we're probably going to lose a game unless a miracle occurs, yet until then we have to keep plodding on with the chore of returning files (yawn).
Aircraft offer us the possibility of that miracle and keep our hopes alive, knowing that even though we might be losing at the moment, an airstrike on the enemy could come in anytime and even things up..:)

But then the opposite would also be true.

You've played one of the best games of your life, you have out thought, and out fought your opponent, and he has nothing left that could even remotely threaten you.

Then all of a sudden victory is snatched from you, but not because of some glaring gaff of your own, and by not because of some stroke of genius by your opponent; but purely and simply because some fly-boy's goggles have misted up and he bombs your own troops my mistake.

At least you have a chance to fire back at your oppoents planes!

Just seems to me rather a vague way in which to decide who wins a tournement
