Sadly, there are a few members in my squad(wings of Terror) who go to MW and EW to milkrun and otherwise game their rank.  I like the guys in my squad but find this sort of thing very distasteful.
We have vets teaching relatively new guys how to game the ranking system as opposed to teaching them how to become better pile-ets.  They jump in perk rides and vulch, getting their fighter rank up, but these same guys are hard pressed to be reliable wingmen and don't make a good showing for themselves in fights where the enemy may actually shoot back.

The ranking system is somewhat complex and as such rewards those who put all the square pegs in the square holes and round pegs in the round holes etc etc with the greatest frequency....................

As such its goals reward only those folk who do the most stuff, in the most ride types, (now) regardless of place.

For me trying to achieve an overall winner is a bit abstract............

I find my self measuring my performance more by perk point earnings per flight than other stuff. Then I look at the KD ratios etc.

So for me a simple system that shows.

Fighter - Total perks earned per tour & average perks per flight
Bomber- Total perks earned per tour & average perks per flight
Attack - Total perks earned per tour & average perks per flight
Vehicle- Total perks earned per tour & average perks per flight.

This would not take into account perks lost IMO.

Of course then you would need an attack perks column.

separating mw and ew from all but fighter rank would prolly be a good idea--hard to 'game' that
