Title: Tootin' my own horn!
Post by: The Fugitive on May 22, 2022, 02:14:47 PM
Its taken quite a while to get there, I started in Tour 21 as "MDJOE" fresh over from Air Warriors, but I finally hit a big milestone. Not bad for a below average old guy.   :D

Is a program "Spatula" put together years ago. With my sons help Ive kept it working. I can run your numbers if you like. Just give me the tours you flew in and what info you want and I'll run them for you.

Outstanding.  I'm as impressed that you have more kills than deaths as I am with the 20K figure.  I think I hit 70 kills today.  I stand in awe.  :salute

You will get there, remember tour 21 was back in Nov 2003. Been at this a long time.

Going to make one of the 109s the next plane I get 1000 kills in..... if I can ever figure out how to aim!

Congrats Fugi!

Here yours Eagler. Its showing the same info I post of mine. All of the data is what you can get from HTC, but instead of doing one page at a time it does a bunch and compiles all the info. I love checking out the numbers, its almost as much fun as a good fight in the arenas!

Just don't go into pie/charts territory.  Ye might anger "The Snail".....or get him really excited.  Honestly, could go both ways.  :P

Cool and wtg!  I recall using one of Spatula's programs - was it this one?

I did my MA stats manually way back around 2015...

Wonder how it may compare if it's not too hard to run?

Shane: 14 - 71
Shane08: 101 - 106
Shane: 132 - 139

I did it manually with excel for the 3 time periods above, and had almost 30K fighter kills with a 2.15 k/d   
Never did get around to doing my CT/AvA stats.

If you hunt down which tours you used which names I could give it a shot tomorrow.

Post by: The Fugitive on May 24, 2022, 03:36:09 PM
Thanks again guys. Again, it doesnt show that Im one of the "elite", far from it. It averages out to about 90 kills a tour and I havent been close to that in years. I think declining skill as I age and spend less time fighting, along with less targets that want to fight hurts that the most. The time is something I want to see. How much time have I spent playing?

atlau has a crap ton of kills and a great K/D, but how much time has he spent in the game? Iknow he use to spend a lot of time playing. The only way I have found to figure out the time is to use the reports, copy the time totals per tour to Excel, and get the totals thru excel. Then do that for each catagory, fighter, buffs and so on to get the total time in game, or as my wife calls it "wasted" in game. One of these days Ill do it.

Playing with the numbers is like falling down the rabbit hole watching youtube videos.  :P

LNG15, which I started in 2017. I believe I started it around July 2017 but I truthfully can't remember the tours. But from that time roughly. I apologize in short, but it's been a long time since I remember. Edit: Melee Tour 211 (That's when I started.)

The reason I ask is because it is time consuming to find the tours. What I do is go to the scores page, type a name, and jump back 20 tours or so and check the scores. If it returns a score sheet I jump back another 20 or so and try again and again until it returns the error"so and so did not fly in tour blah,blah,blah". Then I move forward halfing to number of tours until I hit scores again. Next request is going back half again. I do this until I narrow it down to the first tour the player played in.

With a single name Im done and can use the program to run the numbers. For multiple "names" like you have I have to do this for all of them hunting down BOTH start tours and end tours. So in the case of your one name it would take 2-3 minutes, the others would be 5-6 minutes each or more. In the end I could spend over a half hour just hunting tour/names. The program its self is just punch in the name,arena, and tour start and finish, and hit "OK". It runs in the background and is a bit slow so as to not hammer HTCs server but its all automatic from then on.

So heres yours for the "LNG15" handle

You a big fibber!   :P

You started in tour 11, the program through a bunch of errors. Usually those are tours where you didnt fly. So this is what I ended up with.

Cheers Fugi, I got AH burnout and took a break for a year or two and went to WW2Online. Still kept my AH sub - I think it was around the time HT split the MA. Definitely flew in the beta, came over from WB when Ripsnort told me about AH.

I checked, there is no "Vulcan" in the 3 beta tours, nor the first 10 tours.  :headscratch:

Just checked through the website, I had 6 kills in a P-51 in Beta Tour 1 as Vulcan, and 96 in Tour 1. I notice if I try to click through it throws an error. Never mind it's no big deal :)
