The only thing I would like is an explanation of the perking criteria for existing aircraft. Yes there was a post form someone at HTC about the use of the Chog but as far as I can remember it just stated that “they were taking a look at it”. Still there has been no defined explanation other than the ones presented by the pro-perkers.
Numbers, all right let’s talk numbers. Theoretically it is impossible to compare numbers accurately unless certain conditions apply. The same conditions such as map, number of players, and time of year would need to be compared for an accurate reference. In the programmatic world I would think the version of FM also would need to be included. Does this condition apply? No. There is not enough history to make an accurate assumption.
So, what now? The numbers on the Chog have dropped to an “acceptable” level and maybe even lower. Will it now be un-perked? No idea, there is not an established criteria for perking existing aircraft.
Do I want the Chog un-perked? Yes. Why? It is the single best aircraft, IMO, for ATG and a hog in the air is usually an easy target unless an experienced pilot is flying it. Again, IMO, it is a very difficult aircraft to be proficient at. What was the saying, “Ensign Eliminator”, hmmmmm.
Until there is a published criteria it will always look like the Chog was perked due to a lot of bruised egos. I only ask for a standard not subjectivity on the whims of pilots downed by an “uber” arircraft.
Are my arguments weak? Well, I guess that’s subjective also. Especially since I can’t base my arguments on a published standard can I?
