maybe the three country system needs an adjustment

[Crash Orange]

Rediculous is being loyal to one chess piece when you seem to be having no fun in a game.

It's not the chess piece, it's the people. It's like saying you're loyal to a piece of cloth. It's what the cloth represents.

I've played for all three countries and moving from one to another once in a while is a good thing but that's not the same as flipping over every time you log on. You don't shuffle players between teams at halftime.

The worst problem with ENY is late at night when numbers are low and a higher percentage of the people logged on aren't actually playing. You end up with all three sides having 10 people in flight but one of them having a 29 ENY because of 15 people in the tower who went to bed while still logged on in the hopes of getting war-winning perks while they slept. That country can easily be reduced to flying against superior numbers of Spit XVIs and LAs in A6M2s and F4Fs because that's all they can take off in. You can't take bases because the only bombers you can take are B-25Cs or He-111s.

Oh look, a football correlation. Different game - different rules.

POTW moved to rook to get away from ENY. Rook all sound and act like knights now to my squad while I never realized just how much the knights play just like we accused the rooks and bish of playing the game when we were knights.

What may really kill this game is selfish inflexible players who create lame excuses for why they are limited to very narrow choices while scapegoating Hitech as their victimizer to justify away their lameness.

Spot on.

[Shuffler]

I want to kill you and everyone else in the game, but not die myself, thats the way I would like to see the game, is that selfish of me?

LOL darn.... you got me there.

Each side has their positives and negatives. I have flown all sides and they all horde, they all hide in ack, they all run. The difference is always the people. Each side has good people and each side has tool bags. Just depends which group of people you like best. I fly with a great group on knights currently, every night is fun.

I am definitely the funnest Knight.  If you would kindly edit your post to say that, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for your attention in this important matter.

Sure you do if you're playing a pickup game and somebody has to go, or do you have a "skins for life" tattoo on your chest and if a couple of shirts have to go, tough on them, they get to play shorthanded?

If I was not in a squad, I would check the roster every time I logged in and immediately switch to the least numbered side.

What about an optional pop-up message when you login to the arena and pull up the clipboard that offers you an award of say, 15 perk points to switch to the low-numbered side?  If you click "OK" then it switches you automatically and increases your perk point total.  I guess you'd have to tell it where to put the award - Fighters, Bombers, or Vehicles.

Perk Points are the carrot, ENY is the stick.  Perhaps an effective combination.

The only "adjustments" that need to be changed in the MA are map size and base distance. Orrr, have a monitor in the arena at 3AM est time to change the map to a smaller map until 11am est.  The maps could start where they left off, until the eventual win. I still think Montis is the shiny example of a great MA map.

Edited per request: Zoney is the mostest funest knight.

This is why I fly for rooks.

... wait!
is this a whine that rooks are having more fun that the other 2 countries? Just for the record, our sheep are fluffier also. 

[oboe]

Rooks are actually the best Nation.  All of their fighter pilots are strong, bomber pilots are good-looking, and vehicle drivers above average.  It's a little known fact but if a Rook player switches to another side, the average IQ levels of both Nations is increased.
