I wonder if I us old FA'ers were thrown a bone. Back in Fighter Ace they kept a cumulative a running total of your kills since your last killed and for every 5 kills you got a star next to your name.

i'm guessing it's gotta be # of achievements.. i have 17, no star.

ive just checked 2 people with a star, they each have 28 achievements.

and one with 38, 1 star

one 29, 1 star.



so my half arsed data gathering, i think the star means youve gotten 25 achievements.

Not that either, I as chugging along in a 152, believe I had just killed a PonyD and as I was typing to the person who joined my plane - bwah! A random star appeared...

 :huh :headscratch:

You have 27 achievements now. I also got my star when I accomplished my 26st or 27th achievement. We have 100 achievements right now, you I expect the second star at about 50 earned achievements, the 3rd at ~75...  :old:
