I'd give the #39 pilot a free month.

Why?

It's alot harder to become #39 intentionally!

Just keeping the record straight.

I think if your the top pilot of a tour you should get a free months subscription, it would at least give some incentive.
Then your second account will pay for itself...

I would support this if AH had an actual meaningful scoring system, that is hard to cheat:

So many negative replies I must have offended your cartoon plane flyin selves. 

What is the harm in Hitech kickin 15$ to the #1 score dweeb?  If you dont care then it doesnt effect you, if you do care then you save an hours worth of work that week.

Its not that I cant afford 15$ but I'd like the 15$ for being a better score dweeb than the lot of yas.

I agree with bruv119 we should have a fighter pilot tournament with real prizes, the tournament would be totally separate from the MA and you puppies could stay on the porch.

I realize my opinion is like elbow skin and doesnt count for much..... ;)

It's a slippery slope that HTC probably does not want to venture down ... it would open a can of worms that they don't need.

As has been pointed out, there are many individuals (subscribers) that devote many hours of their time to make Aces High a better product and they do it for FREE. For the life of me, I can't see HTC kickin' a $15 reward for something as meaningless as "score" in it's current incarnation.

Belial, it affects others by encouraging poor gameplay.

How about charging an extra $15 to the #1 ranked score bore?

I was upset the first time Belial and GreEric were going on about how they can see through smoke, and justified it by sayin it wasn't their fault.  I really don't care now, it just makes em more fun till kill when they are Cheech and Chongin it. 

If you can see through smoke, know it's an unfair advantage, and keep exploiting it, you're kinda a British cigarette.

Wanting to get a cash reward for these actions just makes you a "red bag with a hose"

LMAO DMbear.

Belial I think you feel rewarded enuff just by seeing your name on the list and you make sure we all know about it :)  :aok

No harm in suggesting something. But it would affect gameplay, and quite a bit I would venture.

We'd need an air controller to vector all the C-Hogs in to the vulch sessions, "need one already". The sky would be filled with Lancs at 35,000' bombing meaningless strats in empty sectors. The Vox would be 10x worse with the GV camp Generals barking out orders and rubbish. If some of these guys are that soft in the head to go ape-manure over a score system that is meaningless just imagine what they would turn into when the score system starts meaning money?

No doubt you wouldn't and your suggestion is well meant. I think it would bring only negative to the game however.

I have a better idea,
Every month the top three scorers from each arena gets a break for one month.

That's all we need... more scorehoors.

+infinity


How about a free month for the player that posts the most missions in a month. 

Better yet, how about a free month for the guy that does the CiC orders for the FSO.

Even more, how about those guys that spend all the time developing skin art and stuff.

Dumb ideas, but I'll post it anyway.   :rock

Dont forget about a free month for the one that augers the most and a free month for the guy that drops troops instead of vehicle supplies.....  :lol
