Actually... Yeah, what were you going for?  200?  

Has that ever been done?  Do we actually have a "highest K/D" stat?

And to contradict myself a bit.....  I've thumped my chest about much smaller victories.  

Don't listen to us man, we are all just jealous!

Rule of thumb: if your K/D > 5 you are not really fighting.

I could agree, but I also know some people that would make me disagree...






#S# Kazaa, very nice!  I noticed when you had about 125 kills in fighter...then I realized you didn't have any deaths in any category.  I can't do it!

Well, I for one and relieved to see this.  With a 34-kill streak, I was at #2 last night, hoping to catch #1, when I collided with a 109 and died instantly.  I logged wondering how close I was to #1.

Not very close at all!

It was rough night for us all Kazaa - let's quit the camp and play scrabble on Facebook!

wtg!

Just to be clear, I posted this only because I know a few people took interest in what I tried to achieve.

in all honesty, i think it's probably one of the hardest things to do....to land that many kills with no deaths...........

that being said, i just don't understand how one could entertain themselves doing that.

You have to realize, Kazaa isn't your average pilot and granted, he had to fly timid for his standard, but was probably still being more aggressive than most of the people who fly this game.  The guy is uber.

Imagine doing this hobby for years and years...and getting bored starts to become a significant problem.  This sort of thing can keep it interesting....for a short while.  Its not getting the kills that impresses me.  Kills are easy in this game.  

It is the not getting killed part that is difficult.  I kill myself waaaaaay more often than actually being bested by other players.  To survive that long is a feat worthy of recognition in this virtual game of mega deaths.

15.75 kills per hour  took 16 hours.  I'm betting he had a blast doing it.

that kill rate is way above average.   I'm sure he won't be attempting it again any time soon though  ;)   but for 30 minutes of those 16 hours he spent nursing home a Tempest with a knocked out radiator  (by one ping town ack.)  

he flew back across the water and landed on the beach.  giving time for his engine to cool back down, then because the field was 3.6k high and no way up the hill he proceeded to fly tree top level along the beach shutting down every couple of minutes for 1.5 sectors of beach line and then successfully landed on a 0.0k field with next to no fuel.   Now with determination like that anything is possible.

WTG Kazaa

I was killed at 67-0 this tour. An then I was rejoicing seeing some lower B-17's... "More free kills!" I was thinking. Unfortunately it was 999000 in those buffs  :(

But on the other hand, it was a relief. Long kill streaks at start of a tour are making me nervous... After the first death, I can fly more relaxed   :cheers:

I wasn't faulting him for it.........

i mean c'mon.......what i said is coming from some dope that kept landing on enemy runways last the last couple times he flew.  :rofl :rofl

Some say revenge is a dish best served cold. I say it's usually best served hot, chunky, and foaming. Eventually, you will all die in my vengeance vomit firestorm.

Definitly, I was watching him buzz our feild deck level with his Tempest not afraid of a thing! Nice job Kazaa!  :cheers:
