... I'm gonna be sombody
All I have to do is wait for another 2-3000 people to leave the game and I will rule the skies! :t

I'm pretty sure you have 5 kills already :D

This may turn out to be quite the thread. :banana:

i doubt there are 2000 players currently subscribed. I'd be surprised if there were 1000 active subscriptions honestly. :(

It's OK. Don't cry. I'll let you be an Ace too.

I think we have a pretty good idea there probably isn't.

in my scores...Field Captures (attack) 0 rank..1411
I assume everyone who has no field captures is ranked 1411 as well...
so surely at least 1411 subscribers have been scored ....no?

Seriously though, your dueling tourneys, along with KOTH have always been my favorite part of this game. Thanks for your time and patience, I appreciate it. :salute ... I'm gonna be sombody

Not everybody is flying 'attack''
Not everybody who does fly 'attack' is a subscriber

You could have a thousand people tied for last place at 1411

:headscratch:
...We have non subscribers flying attack?
Not as an absolute number depending on how many are tied for 1411th, but wouldn't something like that indicate there are at least 1411 people subscribed? Always wondered about that.

I would say that if you are showing 1411th in attack, that their are probably well over 2500+ subscribers who fly frequently, if they didn't your attack rank would be a helluva lot lower sub 1,000 even........
just a general thought.....

I know about 15 players who only play fso.

1411 is the last rank number still. If it were 1000 players tied for last rank, the rank numbers would be
408
409
410
1411
The last place' rank number does really indicate the number of players scoring in that particular category
Actually, the lowest attack rank of last tour was 1731.

1) Anyone who plays AH is ranked. To the score system it doesn't matter if you are a subscriber or a two weeker. So in that number there are two weekers included. And AH actually has a lot of them. Probably several hundred per tour.
2) Many players don't play in attack mode at all. Last tour we had more than 2500 players with at least one kill or death in the late war arena. Some - many (?) of them being two weekers. On the other hand, some subscribing players may have taken a break for a month.
That should show that deducing actual subscriber numbers just from that factor alone is a quite defective method. I would not bother with it.
3) The number of "event only players" seem to be very small to me, after analysing populations of one scenario and one FSO session. Very few players didn't play in LW at all, and on average the FSO population turned out to be above average active in LW. I will do another analysis during the next days, if time allows

Doh... Completely forgot that two weekers are people too and would count.

Make rank or score is 0, does that mean nobody is flying? :devil

I don't think so. If you had 10 players tied for 1400 then the numbers would be like below....
1400

*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
1410
1411 with a thousand players tied at the last number it would then continue in the same vein

You may be right and I may be wrong with that :old:
(However I do know for sure there simply aren't "several thousands" tied for last place (Yes, I know you weren't seriously claiming this ;) ))

.... and thats what makes it so hard to find a "number" to use to show the subscription totals. the best we can do is use them as a comparison.
Tour 173 ____________I had "0" field captures and was ranked 1993
Tour 137 (3 years ago) I had "0" field captures and was ranked 3004
A 30% drop in 3 years.
