In baseball you must have a minimum number of at-bats to win the batting title.
I think the scoring in AH needs something similar. Minimum 50 sorties or 50 kills, otherwise you are locked out of the top 50.
It's far too easy to game the system over the short run. Five sorties is enough to crack the top 10 as it is.
YMMV.

If everyone can do it, and the end result means literally nothing.. why change it? You are basically saying someone has to invest more time in the game to compete in a statistical category that is irrelevant.
If it means that much, maybe have triple the points on kills, assists, etc if you are flying a 30ENY plane or higher. Kills per time and points is what wins you scoring in fighters. If I can up a sortie and get x amount of points in a la7, or xX3 in a p47, score wise, I'm takin the jug.
Would get some folks to bust out some hangar queens.
Your request is basically just asking people to fly more.

If it's irrelevant then you shouldn't care. We will count your vote as NEUTRAL.

There is only one vote, and you arent even close to be in the running for casting it.

No.. it's a -1
:D
Not happening, doesnt serve a purpose.
If you want to score higher in fighters, kill more and kill it faster. That simple. You will easily outscore the guy that gets 49 kills with 0 deaths in the first week of the tour and then doesn't touch a fighter sortie.
Field gunner deaths/kills/scoring are in need of much more attention.
Whose scoring were you comparing to start this post out of curiosity?

Why do you have to butt into every thread of mine with snark?
Welcome to my ignore list.

I don't compete for score. Well, last month I did just to beat Violator using the very method I am advocating against in this thread.
The scoring system is easily gamed with the current numbers--making it less relevant than it has ever been. My proposal might bring a little balance and context to the proceedings.

I rarely post these days. Sorry you were the one this week.

Speak for yourself. My wife checks my scores to know if I’m man enough that day. It matters ok!

Minimum kills would make more sense than minimum sorties. But then what about categories that don't rely on kills?
50 sorties per category would require a LOT of time. I had 81 total sorties in 16 hours last tour.
I'm on the fence. I have always kind of agreed there needed to be some guidelines to that, though.

Can you imagine my disappointment when I became #1 for the first time and the ladies still didn't care? :cry

Just for the record, last tour less than 30% of all players did fly 50 or more sorties in fighter mode (and about 33% did fly less tan 10 sorties) :old:

Kills would work.
25 hops or 50 kills?

Cannot believe I am just now seeing this post lol.
This is hilarious to me. He's mad that people win #1 fighter because of skills and ability in every category besides points.... that is funny. Points are the one category that gives players who spend 80 hours a week an advantage. What's hilarious is not getting #1 with that time advantage. That's one reason I love the scoring system. I use to not get #1 back in the day because I just simply couldn't get enough points. That's how it was vs Atlau over the last 2 years.

Well you beat the rank because I was focusing on the k4 for MOA series I which I went 21-0. I needed a break after 3 months at #1 :aok. But congrats though. Maybe one day you'll get #1 :rofl. Hard to spend 150 hours a month playing... I aren't trying for rank every tour. If I'm having a good run than that's how it sits, or if I try than that's how it sits as youve seen before, but I wasn't even focusing on it last tour, or even this tour. It takes patients and understanding to get #1. Flying for 160 hours a month shouldn't just earn you the #1 position.
If anything should be adjusted to rank. It's ENY average of the plane used by that player. That would atleast stall the #1 fighter pilots who only fly 262s, temps. La7s and spit16s to get higher ranks in the fighter category.
