LOLz................. Happened to me the other day only it was just a country reset. What makes your take on the server reset so funny, is the

panic we all go through. That along with the number of guesses that we make on how the system works

I understand that if you are in flight when the server resets, it acts as if the whole sortie never occurred. So, if you didn't rack up any points, kills, structures destroyed, then you don't loose any perks.
Now, here was my dilemma the other day. I didn't care about the perk points, but I had made a few fighter kills (something rare for me). Would have been ideal for me to see my name in lights but, I was already pleased enough with myself without any pats on the back (although always appreciated).
I

pondered that if a reset means that the sortie didn't count, did it not consider my killz?

Oops you caught me I look at my score here and there. I might have augered just to save my killz at the sacrifice of perk points. The funny thing, is that those kills were probably already recorded and I feel even cheaper for admitting to my shame.
