No more than 50% of kills may be in one type.

Am I missing anything?

I'd think a 'Hello Kitty' reference of some sort would pull more guys in.

Actually, there are a few more early war birds that are missing. Are you just running with the no-cannon birds, or are these your top 4 gimps on their own merits (or lack thereof)?

These 4 planes typically have the worst K/D of all fighters.  
Most importantly, they are available in fighter mode only, which is what makes this contest possible.

All but one player burnt out in the last contest, would it be better to make it a minimum of 10 kills per type and a minimum of 50 kills?

Yes... then some of us who's suckage is the stuff of legend might have a shot.

Woof

Why dont you just make it a flat "15 kills per type"?  Thats 60 kills, and no worries about what plane makes up what percentage of the kills.

no 109E4?

Sounds good to me

A minimum of 15 kills must be earned in each type.

I need something different to do this camp, I'll compete in this contest. Sounds like fun. Can we have a bonus category though? Whoever kills the most Lgay7's in any of those 4 rides wins a hero cookie?

There is one major problem with basing this on fighter rank; many players will have all ready flown a fighter sortie before they find this thread/contest.

Even Newer Rules: .
Winner is player who has best combined K/D in 6 types TIMES total kills in the 6 types.
Types are ONLY Spit-I, Hurri-I, P-40B, A6M-2, 109E-4 & C202.
A minimum of 10 kills must be earned in each type.

Players must post their own math at the end of the Tour/Contest

Example of score reporting:
Player name
Spit-I – 10/10
Hurri-I – 10/10
P-40B – 10/20
A6M-2 – 15/5
109E-4 – 15/5
C202 – 20/10
Total – 80/60

80/60 = 1.33333 K/D
1.33333 K/D times 80 kills = 106.667
Player name score = 106.667
