Most of you MAers don’t know who I am, but a long, long time ago, like you, I used to live in the MA. (Now I live in a little place known as the CT). I used to research and post the time players had spent playing AH. It’s been a long time since I’ve posted a “Pasty Skin Award”. My research methods are far from complete, so in other words, there could be players who’s AH time exceeds the results that I am posting. If you know of such a player, please post your findings in this thread.
Most importantly, if you find this interesting or fun, please feel free to take over the “Pasty Skin Award” research for future Tours.
To find the players listed below, I simply looked at the top 100 roster, and the top 20 or so per sub category (fighter, bomber etc.). I also looked into the CT Tour 22 top list, and much to my surprise found two of the top “hours logged” players. Usually CT player’s hours are about ¼ or less of the MA top 100 (We’re not quite a fanatical, I thought)
Just think, these results do not include time spent in the: TA, DA, Special Events, offline, Tower time, mission planning, Ship gunner, etc. (only “flight” time is recorded) Then there's also BB posting time, channel 1 whining time, map making, etc.
Anyway, here are the results:
Taxi > 239 Hours! (195:02 CT + 43:52 MA)
Dog398 > 217 Hours (All MA)
Storch > 211:43 Hour 185:27 CT + 26:16 MA)
Umbola > 193:24 Hours (All MA)
EDDIE34 > 183:50 Hours (All MA)
RAMAIR > 180:41 Hours (All MA)
(8 more in my search had between 150 and 180 hours)
