From eskimo:
"Someone can rank #1 in fighters in the CT in just one sortie because the vast majority of CT stats pretty much suck (compared to the MA). If a guy like Fester were to drop in during the right set up and at the right time, he’d probably rank #1 after a sortie or two. There just are not enough players to make points critical to having a good score. There are probably a hundred MA guys who could pop in to the CT and rank #1 overall in just a few hours…"

I tend to disagree. Maybe it's just me, but I feel that the average pilot in the CT is a much dangerous one than in the MA.
Some very good sticks hang around in the CT, and Fester, no more than anyone, is NOT invincible.

which part OF MY POST did you not understand?

if you READ my post AGAIN you will SEE that i am AGREEING that you CANNOT RANK 1 ACROSS THE BOARD WITHOUT SCOREWHORING.  i MERELY STATED that you can be #1 in fighter and possibly attack BUT NOT BOMBER OR GV.

Ignoramus.

LOL, everyone accuses me of being nothing but a score potato, then they don’t believe I know much about it?
Just this tour I ranked # 1 overall and spent less than 4 hours in Fighter, Bomber & GV modes combined.

Looking back a few tours, I’ve ranked #3 in fighters in less than 8 MINUTES; that’s right, less time than it takes most folks to get to alt in one sortie.  The CT ranks are NOT competitive.  Four other Tours I’ve ranked between #3 and #7 in fighters in 27 to 45 minutes.
In bombers I’ve ranked from #1 to #4 in 30 to 60 minutes repeatedly.
I like GVs and like tank fights, so I spend more time purely playing for fun than whoring. I have, however, ranked very high in an hour or two.  #1 GV rank in the CT could be potatod in less than an hour.

A lot of guys in the MA are way more serious about score, and have enough skill to rank well.  Sure, the average CT player may be a better pilot than the average MA guy, but the MA has 10 to 30 times the number of players and many of those players spend a lot more time playing.  The best MA players are way better than the average MA player.  If the top 30 MA guys wanted to fight for best rank in the CT, they’d find it to be a cake walk, I know.  

If I can rank #1 with little effort, so could a bunch of MA guys.

This chart illustrates my point exactly.



Compare these single sortie (vulch) tours from the CT and MA.
Their K/Ds and K/Ss are identical.
K/T is nearly Identical.
Hit % is much higher in the CT, but is insignificant since MA Hit % rank is still at #20.
Points in the MA sortie are almost exactly triple the CT points due to the hitting power and big clip of the Chog Hispanos.  In spite of the very high points for a single sortie, the ending MA rank is pushed all the way to #150.  Too many MA players shoot down a heck of a lot of planes to make it possible to rank very high in the MA in just one or two sorties.
