Bishop have had the numbers consistently since I started flying here in February. I was Bish by default but jumped to Knight because there were too many Bish pilots already.
Bish numbers fell off, and the balance equalized overall, when the AKs jumped from Bish to Rook. Then HTC announced the contest and the Bish numbers went back up... and the AKs are now back in Bishland again. Not that there's anything wrong with that - heck I may jump back to Bishop land again too.
But when a group of Bishop pilots start squawking about how good they are ... well, that has about as much value as a Mardi Gras coin. Wait - check that. A Mardi Gras coin has more value because chicks will lift their shirts for the coin but I don't think they'd do it for some false Bishop bravado.
Hey shamus, if you want a challenge, try flying Rooks for a month. Those guys hardly ever get a break. Knights numbers seem to fluctuate during the weeknight, but reach their peak on weekends around midnight Eastern. Sometimes I'm the giver, and sometimes I'm the receiver. Kinda makes it more challenging that way.
I'd join Rude's fly-off challenge, but I think a gv duel wasn't what was intended.
