Ok....

If you had to choose between the following, which would it be? And please keep it simple and choose between only these two choices

1. I fly for fun and my score is not important.

2. I fly for fun and my score is important.

Just curious as to how the community is split on this issue.

Thanks

Score creates more trouble than it is worth, IMHO.

What's this score thing you guys are talking about?

Seriously, the stats are broken right now.  K/D is calculated wrong, gunnery percentage penalizes strafing, fighter bomber stats are mixed with fighter stats, tank stats are mixed with bomber stats, and a few other glaring problems.  So I don't pay much attention to them.

I fly to pad other people's scores!

In other words I fly for the fun.

The only thing I look for on my score is my gunnery % to see if I am getting any better.
But now I fly so much JABO it is pretty bad.

#1.

If I do #2, I can be successful, but I don't have as much fun, and nobody cares about anyones score, except you.

#1...........

I fly for fun... Probably the reason i dont have anything to whine about.

How many of you would take a Typhoon and T&B with a Zeke under 5k knowing the outcome before you start? I will and have and will contine to do so..

Very little gets under my skin, cept for the consistant whiners.

  I would. But currently I'm enjoying doing just that in my P-47 too much to try the Tiffie.
