Sorry All you Bomber pilots
« on: March 04, 2002, 07:10:31 PM »
Bomber pilots due to the sillyness of the ranking system yours truly was ranked #1 in bomber ranks last nite.  Sorry guys I dont even fly bombers usually.  Tried to up 1 three times last night was about to be vulched, exited on the runway result bomber rank #1.  Goes to show how silly the whole thing is.  ANyways never been #1 in any ranks so I'll pretend its real:)

Anyway sorry guys:(  Not my fault so pls dont flame lil ol me.

Think it is different for fighter rankings? ;)

That's the major reason I laugh my butt off at anyone thinking their opinion means something because they are ranked high...

At least it gives me a good line to throw at any1 who would try to make out that 'he da man' because of his rank.
'3 sorties, 3 landings, 49 Seconds Rank #1".  Funnilly enough today Im ranked 1135 in bomber strange how it does that ain't it. My score hasn't changed.  Anyway solves my problem for me.

There has always been a bug that ranks folks at #1 for a few hours when they first fly sorties for a tour.  It happenes in all 4 categories, but never lasts more than a few hours.  No idea what causes it and why it only happens to a few.

It's because the ranker runs once an hour, if you just happen to time your first flight in a catagory just right, it screws up the ranks. Then the next hour run it's back to where it should be.
