Any of you bish that are sick of getting ran over - go join the rooks! Our 262's are still too high.

I'm fine right here in Bishland :)

i was on before when only 3 other rooks were on.

like i mentioned about 5AM Central time on a friday (thursday night NOT fri to sat)

arena was reset by bish, there were only 25 rooks before that, and most never logged back in.

seen it a few times before like that.

Yea, that's likely, although Bish were logging-off in droves last night starting at 10pm, there were only 25 Bishops on at 2am Central. School starts soon, Bishop's mommies are not letting them stay up late anymore. ;)

I even flew over a Bishop base at about 1 AM, saw rows upon rows of Lgay7's with lil' 'Zzzzzzz's' coming from their cockpits and the soft glow of moonlight reflecting off their rubber bedsheets.

LOL ! Check out that ME-262 cost... heh heh. Last night for Rooks it was around 427 perks for a 262.

Post by: ghostdancer on August 10, 2004, 12:48:58 PM: 9 pts for a me262? Wow .. at that cost I would expect to see many, many more of them up.

Post by: Howitzer on August 10, 2004, 02:30:27 PM: I think he was talking more about the cost for a 262. I got 22 for 4 kills in a p47D-11 two nights ago with a perk bonus of .88. I don't fly a side for the perks, I fly a side because I like flying with the people on that side. Has nothing to do with hordes or anything else, but if you still want to call me a rube, go ahead I suppose.

Post by: Mak333 on August 10, 2004, 03:37:15 PM: Question...Lets say you take a 262 up at 5AM in the morning when its under 20 perks ok?

You leave it near a base at HQ on the runway with the engine off. You come back that afternoon whent he price is up around 250 - get a few kills in it but then die lets say... 4PM.

Do you lose the 9 perks?

Or is it based on how high of a cost the 262 was when you crashed it and/or shot down in it?

Post by: JB35 on August 10, 2004, 03:40:45 PM: you will lose the amount of perks at the time of cost of said perk ride , you can up with it at a cost of 9 but if it jumps to a cost of 50 and you die , you will lose 50 perks.

Since my name shows on the roster, it was between 1:30am and 3:30am PST.

Cool thing about the Bish numbers is that they were all for the most part at A60 for some really good deck fights. Of course the good fights didn't stop me from vulching Waffle whenever I had the chance :cP

ack-ack

Wow, You actually flew close enough to see a plane on the deck
????

Or was this from your satellite in orbit?

it was around 4:15 am CST...

No, that wasn't a log in, take a screenshot...you can ask AKAK about it - he was messing up my farming, due to his and Xtremej's vulching.

When I made mention of the perkmod mod on open channel..then the real rubes showed their heads - all of a sudden there were 15 players over on bish land...lol. Everyone has their price. Damn country jumpers looking for gold....the fools. Messed it up for me.
