Use to be two tablespoons was enough to get it rising but now it really
takes 28 plus grams..... so where do they get off using foot-pounds?

Heck, I got 2 captures in a row one night!


Granted, I don't always bother, but it's easy enough.

The thing about captures playing into score has always been well-known by the score-tard-types.

Everything is playing into score. If you play the whole game your overall rank will rise, if you enjoy only portions of it, it will drop. That's the whole "secret".

Seems like the score guys do. I was checking to see where they get a low score from other then the MOABs on towns in a JU87 or rockets with pt/251. Seems like almost all the top ten have a good bit of captures.


BTW many people have come in here and said something about hours played, or K/D in MW, stuff like that which you need to check the scores for but did you come at them? You need to get off my ankle.

If you read any of the posts complaining about how many XXX hours so and so flew, what someone's K/D is, yada yada yada, you'll see me post pretty much posting the same as I did here.  Who cares?  If so and so has XXX number of captures, does it really degrade your enjoyment of the game?

Gotta agree with him, he does drill everyone who whines about scoring a new one.

It probably does.  He's obviously interested in the top 10 because he's checking them out and now realizes that he needs more base captures to get there.


When I was in the top 10 on a semi frequent basis I always shot for top 500 as a minimum in every statistical category and ideally top 200 or better (except I relegated my K/H to 1000 or worse).  To hit those numbers I needed 4 GV captures and 3 goon captures per month.  Being a loner who never joined missions that was always among the most difficult challenges I faced each month.

Personally, I agree that's why it gets his panties all bunched up but the reason I asked is that he claims not to care but yet makes a thread like this.
