P-38G Masochist Club
« on: March 04, 2013, 12:27:11 PM »
Inspired by boo's analysis of those dreaded 190A5 drivers ( :neener:), I took the opportunity to quickly compile a who's who of P-38G drivers from last tour (137).  The overall K/D average for the G Wagon was 1.28.  The following is a list of those who achieved a K/D above the average and had at least 15 kills.

Pawz -      207/34 = 6.09
Soulyss -   117/44 = 2.93
TwinBoom - 39/14 =   2.79
Latrobe  -  33/12   =2.75
wil3ur -      21/8      =2.63
Lazer -     15/6      =   2.5
Snuggie -   108/49 =   2.2
RedBull -     28/13    =   2.15
shifty -      28/15   =1.87
Bludy -      50/31    =   1.61
HL -      30/20    = 1.5
Triton28 -  120/88 =   1.36

My analysis:

The average K/D for the above was 2.53.  Total kills for the above were 796 or 61% of the 1,314 kills in the 38G.  In addition, I've found that:

  • Pawz needs a harder plane to fly.  I propose HTC model the YP-38 in post 1939 speed test crash configuration (right) to challenge him. .
  • Soulyss and Twinboom are simply conducting business as usual.
  • Latrobe is showing us all up by bringing his voodoo to the 38.
  • Lazer doesn't need wep to kill things.
  • Redbull does occasionally fly a man's plane.
  • Shifty and Bludy are haxxoring.
  • Triton28 occupies his natural spot of only slightly above average.


Now it's on to the wishlist to lobby for Pawz and his new ride.   :old:

Doh. I could have made the list if you went back another tour. I haven't flown much lately.

There were several names I expected to be on this list but were not. 

On a really slow day at work perhaps I'll dig back for the last year and obtain something more than a snapshot.  I have to be careful though.  If I do too much stat digging Lusche will kneecap me to protect his status.   :uhoh

And you sir.  You need to tell real life to take a hike and get to flyin!   :old:

I will make sure the G Wagon Supreme Triumvirate Council (GWSTC) sees the above stats.  It is up to them to accept or reject your previous tour statistics for current consideration.

I figured most of the 80th would have a few kills in it.  Maybe some just haven't logged the time in the last month.   :headscratch:

Most of the guys who enjoy the 'G' haven't been playing much lately.  It would explain Pawz taking up so much slack! :)

What we need to do is change it up a bit. After this tour let's have the 38 and A5 drivers swap it up. The top-10 of each (at least those gutsy enough to take the challenge) need to fly the other bird until they get 30 kills (close to middle of 40 I measure and 15 you are measuring) and see who is really bad prettythang in the 'skills to pay the bills' department. Then we'll compare K/d.

Who is up to the challenge?

I can die in the A5 as well as anything else.   :D
