In the upcoming edition of my annual AH Stats Report (bigger than ever before!), I'm going to shift the focus a bit from planes to pilots. Amidst other things, I will present the top scorers of 2011 in each plane.
As the year is almost done, the ranks in the popular rides are mostly cemented already: (data up to and including tour 140)
P-51D
Pilot #1 4587 kills
Pilot #2 2411
Pilot #3 2169
P 38J
Pilot #1 3657 kills
Pilot #2 1765
Pilot #3 570
Spit 16
Pilot #1 5162 kills
Pilot #2 2862
Pilot #3 2423
(...)
But even with only 2 tours left, about everybody can still get a top spot - If you chose to fly one of those rare birds of the LW arena, for example: :airplane:
Bf 110C
#1 170 kills
#2 130
#3 72
C.202
#1 552 kills
#2 98
#3 97
Spit I
#1 40 kills
#2 30
#3 26
D3A
#1 35 kills
#2 31
#3 28
For most of the ENY 30+ planes, the numbers are very similar. Should be easy to get enough kills in two tour in one of those "crappy rides", shouldn't it?
So get outta your jet, get into a I-16, brag about your manliness and get on the front page of the AH Stats Report! :x
Limitations:
Different pilot id's can not be combined. If your 100 kills are spread over 10 different pilot id's - bad luck.
All kills will be checked for inconsistencies... you know what I mean ;)
-
Is it going to be for the year or each tour?

year.

In that case two more questions:
How is this going to be calculated? Combined K/D for 12 month for each plane or some other way?

:headscratch: So if I'll be killing only bomber it wont count? (I wont be but just trying to understand what you mean)
I'm going to go look for a way to change my schedule :bolt:
-

These are simply the kill tallies for the whole year. The current #1 Spit 16 pilot has 5162 kills so far. The #1 Spit I pilot only 40.
I will probably add another category which is taking "quality" into account and not just quantity, but that is a different thing and not fully worked out yet.

That would not be score "inconsistencies" ;) :noid

I knew there was a reason why I was keeping 500 perks in reserve for the past 6 years. :old: :airplane: :bolt:

Lusche, one more question. Will the kill to death ratio matter if the person has a very low number of kills in that plane? For example player A gets 300 kills and 5.0K/D in a particular plane and player B gets 10 kills and 10.0K/D in the same plane for the year. Who is going to get the higher quality status?

In that case can you please let me know when it's decided, I am very concerned. :pray :D

Like I said before: This is a different matter and has no direct influence on the thing I posted in this thread. This is all about kills only. Just a simple folly which perhaps encourages some more use of "hangar queens". :banana:

Very cool, Lusche!
:aok

I am (http://i343.photobucket.com/albums/o460/caldera_08/Image1121.jpg) in D3A kills. :lol
-
You have wayyyy too much time on your hands.
-
I prefer Mr. Roboto.
-
Include the RV-8, pretty sure I am #1 with 5+ kills!
-
For the bombers is it going to be just the kills or will the damage points also be calculated?
-
who cares which plane you fly, what matters is that you have fun. many times I have spent hours in the tower just bs with countrymen and squadies and having more fun than if I had been flying.
semp
-
Because its fools like us who give airtime to these birds. Many new players would never see 2/3rds of the planes in this game otherwise.
The number of times a newer player has found my D3A an had no idea about it. One pass and they try reverse too quick, burn E and then fine me on their six pinging away with BBs. I get another kill and they learn that any plane (even a 40 eny bomber) can kill you if flow correctly.
-
:aok It has a historical flair to it. I was just reading a bit about the Me410 and it stuck out there was one pilot that was given credit for a number of kills in that plane. The discussion pitted his group against allied bombers and their escorts.
-

There are no stats available for planes other than kills and deaths.

So is there no easy way to list it for the year... or will I actually have to work to figure this out?

There is no easier way then looking up the pilots for a plane for each tour and then add everything up. If you are just interested in the top 3, you can choose to wait until I publish the stats in January for all of 2010. Or do it yourself. ;)

Per tour....
Go To the Main AW2 page: http://www.hitechcreations.com/ (http://www.hitechcreations.com/)
Go To the Scores & Stats drop down menu on the Top Right
Choose Statistics--> Plane
Choose a Late War tour.
Click on a Plane Name. Not Kills, Deaths or Kill/Death Ratio.
You can now sort by Player Name (default), Kills, Deaths, or Kill/Death Ratio.
Sort by Kills---> Top in Kills per Plane per Tour.
I also like to compare Deaths and Kills/Death to see if someone with a 6/1 KD actually flew more than one sortie in that particular vehicle.

Thanks, I was actually looking more for an amalgamated list of all tours for the years... thus 'having to work for it'. Very informative though for anyone who may be wondering... :)
-
13th for K4 last tour (1.07 K/D) I am happy with that even if there are a few names that should be there that are not.
-
So how angry would HTC be if I used a simple script to scrape years of tour data from the score pages...

I think I am much more likely to be found on top number of deaths . . .
. . . but not by much. Playing time was practically nonexistant this year compared to years gone by. :(
-

check the website TOS (Terms of Service) page if it exists. either way it will take a very long time as they have flood control enabled so you have to wait between each database request. if scraping isnt forbidden you could just script the appropriate delay between each request. (cURL is your friend here ;))
I recently scraped together a database of ~380k records from a UK govt website. legally too as they seem to have missed a couple of crucial things from the TOS (doh!). the only relevant line banned any usage which would restrict the service for other users. despite scraping the pages serially I crashed the webserver twice. I figure thats entirely their fault for using IIS instead of Apache ...

just wondered ... will you be removing any obvious outliers from the stats?

Generally speaking I do check for plausibility on different levels in all stats. ;)

Curious as to what the stats are for the F4F-4... I might be up there! :O

P40E, at 33 kills, is bottom of totem pole for this month

Hmm nice idea, it just might encourage the result you're after. I might suggest post results monthly then the interest in the hangar queens will stay fresh. Folks will certainly lose heart if they wait for a year for results!

Good idea, perhaps it's something that can be started in 2012. If Lusche has time.

this wont happen, dont worry. more likely to be an 80th member or HL from the 39th is another "on the rise" p38 death do'er

not all neglected planes grow up and become bad planes.. Look at poor old 109E4 it grew up into the mighty K4....
-
nice research :aok
I think I've only gotten 2-3 kills in a Spit I the whole entire time I have played this game.
Deaths in a Spit 1 - at least 40 :D

That reminds me, where is that gastropod hiding, I'm wondering what annual totals are looking like for the Dora to date (like you would have to ask if we're too lazy to do it ourselves. :D )?

The gastropod is simply ignoring all those "how am I doing" questions. :D
I think you all can endure the "two weeks" until all stats are compiled and presented ;)
-
I think one planes gonna be mine, by far... same with the most deaths in that one ;)
Gonna be in the top10 in the 262 too, even tho that number wont increase anymore.
I dont fly anything else.

OH MY GOD!! TWO WEEKS ??? (http://www.myemoticons.com/images/super-smileys/jumbo/humor/spaz.gif)

BTW if you do plan on posting it in two weeks, will the stats for december not be included?
-

But maybe they are back in 6 weeks, which is the most probable real world equivalent of two weeks in this case ;)
-
Lusche, one more question. Will the kill to death ratio matter if the person has a very low number of kills in that plane?
Ok, I think I have made up my mind on this.
As of now, I'm planning to name the pilot with most absolute kills, but I will also put up the three top ranked pilots in each plane, using a simplified system similar to arena score:
By ranking pilots for absolute number of kills and for K/D each. The pilot with lowest sum of both rank numbers it top score #1 one.
Any objections or concerns, anybody?
-
I'm a bit surprised the C205 has been quite interested in lately, normally I see very few pilots ever fly it <S>
-
I think Most Kills and K/D as related to the plane are fine for a system... Kills over time is kind of a lame stat to throw in and should be excluded from the overall. How many people in WWII upped a pony had 5 kills and landed 6 minutes later?
...and

The final lists will probably end up looking something like this (actual 2010 numbers):
(http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/305/clipboard02ixi.jpg)
I'm not sure if I should display top 3, 5 or 10. With ~100 objects, the list is getting quite long...
-
Sorry Lusche, I should have known you'd have this well thought out. :aok
-
It's unfortunate that it's a justified concern at all. There's a reason I totally dropped EW and MW statistics. EW in particular is totally *BEEP* :rolleyes:

I recommend 3 or 5, 10 is way to much.
What's the difference between "kills" & "K/D" and "# kills" & "# K/D"? And is that the K/D for the specific plane or the K/D in general?
-

"# kills" and "# k/d" are the specific rank numbers for for each respective category that pilot in that plane. Total rank is determined just the same way as the regular score system works.

Maybe HT doesn't want us to know. I just tried to take a look and the stat pages seem to be down. :furious

See 3 posts above yours :P
To clarify: I still track activity (kills, played hours etc) in those arenas (as well as all others), but mainly just for comparison purposes. But I will not do any specific plane statistics. But ~93% of the MA activity is happening in LW anyway.

So it oughta be only a dozen more posts or so before someone asks again
-

:rofl There has been some blatant shade porking in MW in the last year. Like the account in MW tour 137 that was someones' exclusive victim 500x holycow! :lol
Seems like that must happen in LW too with so many more players to some extent, probably a lot less obvious though.
xtiger has been making a few of us look silly dog fighting in his TBM. lol

Are those p38j stats correct? You have pilot #3 with 570kills and i calculated 616kills up to and including that tour (140). Just wondering so I know if I have a shot at making the top 3. :headscratch:

It was by Spatula, was for individual pilot scores (=you were looking up pilots, not planes) and had been discontinued.

It is still possible to get that program but you will need to PM spatula and he will be able to sort you out. If you check his profile you will probably see a direct E-mail address...

Okay as soon as Fi 156 comes out we will probably have a few days until the end of the year. I recommend we set up a competition who can get the most kills in that time.
