I'm runner up in WWI :noid
Do you know how i did this? Just to show how manipulative score is (didn't do it on purpose):
One night i decided "hey 20th! wanna fly WWI for an hour or two?" "sure why not?!"
we went in, shot at each other and others for a while. i got a bunch of kills and went and landed...
that was the only time i was in WWI last tour but im runner up for the Home Page name in lights. :aok
Shows how simple score can be manipulated here for those who did not know. Now please, don't get mad because your kill streak got ended by a picker or mad cuz you got vulched. because having fun trumps score and seeing as how score can be manipulated by people who do not know much about a certain thing, its the last thing you should worry about :aok now go have fun!

Maybe I'm too slow to get it - but where in that description is the manipulation? :headscratch:

I realized I was #1 fighter a couple days ago...believe me I don't deserve it, I won't be keeping it for long anyway :D

there ya go.

I can only ask again: where is the manipulation in this?
Noir just said he was #1. He didn't explain how he "manipulated" score to get there. Neither did you explain, in which way you manipulated score to get runner up in WW1.

He "manipulated" the score by bringing some people into the otherwise deserted arena to shoot down.
:rofl
He is possibly trying to infer he "manipulated" as someone who, in collusion, repeatedly shoots down a shade or squad mate to get perk points or rank which is not true in this case.

I agree. I flew B-29s with 4 cookies on a couple Chewie missions and those 2 or 3 sorties ranked me #20 in bombers.

aka i should NOT be there in runners up... :lol

This is kind of like the "up one sortie in a fighter and get a good flight then never score as fighter again, only as attack" trick. :joystick:
-
Well hell, all it takes is 2 players to go in there and fight, winner is first place for the tour loser is second place.

that doesn't work. you need to have a minimum of kill points
EDIT : It looks like it's working for bruv, but I'm in not that 1337

there's one player that will fly approx ten sorties for a tour in an La, score high in fighter, then never fly again as a fighter for the whole tour and use attack mode where his K/D and kill points is MUCH lower
-
Was it because only two guys fly in the WWI arena ? lol
-
Not that there isn't a small degree of strategic manipulation involved in score whoring, but you should test your theory in the MA before suggesting it's easy!

there's actually alot more than 2. i've seen 10 on at once in there before. once even around 15. theres a small player base for the arena

Sure, let's see it. Can you maintain it month after month? Can you play the same average number of hours you usually play and still maintain it or do you just milk run 5 hours a month and quit?

i play month long or do you even see me in game almost every night? :headscratch:
gimme all of july and i will get below 100 easily, 50 will be harder due to squadron ops.

A hundred? What happened to 20-30? A hundred is pretty easy for anyone that plays every night. Lots of practice.
50 will be harder because of the competition, not cuz of your squad.
Here's the thing, we all know the score can be "manipulated" to some degree. what it comes down to is a personal challenge more than a competition between the "top" players.
Obviously there are those who simply play the stats, but those same people I wager, rarely put themselves in a position where a team mate depends on them. Not that they should be faulted for this. Too many people put themselves into situations with no regard for the risk to themselves let alone the risk to the team.
You can state that the score can be manipulated all you want, and be correct. What you cant do is compare your #1 rank in the ww1 arena to being number 1 in the MA and say it's easy.
I'm not not defending score whoring but neither do I have a problem with it. It's not "easy" if you play fair, and even less so if you actually put yourself on the line for your team on a regular basis.

If you'd just fly and have fun you'd be surprised what can happen.
If you worry about what anyone else thinks it'll become work and no fun.

youre missing something. first thanks for trolling you lose :aok
second i said i did have a score of 20-30 once to prove anyone can do it. i never said i could go back there (due to squadron stuff like i said).
third off i never said it was easy to be number one i said it was easy to manipulate score so stop putting words in my mouth. are you missing the point that score doesnt matter or do you just love trolling just to make your internet chest bigger? :ahand

They're one and the same. Obviously not a concept you can grasp.

You are right about one thing though, if you can do it, anyone can.

I lowered my ranking to around 100 from 300-400 not by flying differently but by paying more attention to select proper fighter/attack modes.
