Yesterday at 4:30 pm PST  36 rooks, 28 bish, and 18 knits.

Are you sampling only one time slot or all?  

Or, forgot to add, we outnumbered Knits while defending a 2-front war did a feint attack on A2, drew all the bish to it, then proceeded to take A6 and A3 respectively.

Rip, I work eves so have to fly in the mornings.  Thinking about changing countries as being chased by 10-50 is no fun.  Want to be a chaser   not a chasie!!

I would have to say that that is a small part of the reason the numbers are skewed sometimes. Most all people would rather be chaser than chasee.

How many remember when knits were almost non existant at any time of the day  

If you are sorely outnumbered for a period of time and every country is at some point during the day I would suggest bearing with it and doing the best you can till reinforcements arrive. That's how I look at it

ya, right,geez,spend all your time not getting an even fight!! Just fly as target drone for Knights and Rooks.  NO THANK YA!!!

Now the only question is which country??  Rook or Knight?  How about some good reasons to become one of the currently maggot infested enemy

Actually flying with just one other man can help tremendously.

Bane is right, I have noticed that I land a LOT more of my sorties when I'm flying with a wingman, ANY wingman.

Entered the tower today and stomped over to the map room.  Slammed the door behind me and clicked on "Change Country".  Suddenly deep down feelings started.  My eyes became misty. As the arrow hovered over Rooks or Knights tears sprang forth!! Oh, how could I, how could I, how could I<tears running profusely>.  I just can't do it,no way!!

I will remain Bishop no matter the odds!!! Back in the tower I feel much better Clicks on "Roster" Bishops 19 Knights 9 Rooks 28.  Points areoplane towards Knitland.....
