The Challenge
« on: November 30, 2009, 05:30:39 PM »
I"m going to start a series of 2 week long challenges. All results of the challenge should be posted via screenshot or film proof.

November 30th to December 13th will be a "real mans" challenge. Land 25 kills in a Spitfire Mk. 1 before December 13th at 8:00 EST (5:00 PST), and you win a chance to duel me in one. If no one reaches 25 kills, the closest person to the top will get the win (if tied, they duel for the win). Deaths do not matter, all i"m asking is 25 SUCCESSFULLY landed kills. This could mean 13 sorties of 2 kills each, or 2 sorties of 13 kills (real kudo's to anyone that can top 5 in a sortie)

Whoever wins the challange gets to pick the next challange, however, there is 1 requirement to the plane they choose: It must be a plane that is of a different nation of origin then the previous choice.

So, waitaminut....

You just have to land any number of times?

Land 2 kills 12 times?

That's kind of (what's the word) easy!

Might be better to make it "highest single streak closest to 25" instead.

... and you win a chance to duel me in one.
Great concept.  But, why is a dream date with you such an incentive? 

Sincere about the greatness of the concept.  Joking on the dream date thing.

On the practical side, how would one document a "minimum kills per sortie" rule?  Screen shots of landed kills?  Maintain an average?  What about the improbabability of a 5 kill sortie ending in a death?

The streak concept would reduce the numbers rapidly.  I doubt anyone who is seeking combat could survive in a Spit I in the MA for very long.

Films, no screen shots.  Any signs of vulching or picking people off of a runway should result in disqualification  :D
