Title: Tour 35 Pastey Skin Award...
Post by: eskimo2 on January 03, 2003, 10:31:39 AM
By no means official yet...
Chime in if you know of someone with more hours.

yancya13, GET SOME SUN DUDE!!!  187 HOURS IN THE MA!!  YIKES!

Shane came in a close second with 120 hours in the MA and 63 in the CT.  That's 183 hours for both.  TA, dueling and Special events may put him past yancya13...

You guys are averaging 6 hours a day of logged flight time!  Not including TA, dueling, Special events, Tower time, and Ship gunner time!  Then there's also BB posting time, writing songs, channel 1 whining time, etc.  :)

Lots of others had around 150 hours, tons of folks passed the 100 hour mark.  I only looked at the top 30ish ranked, so sound off if there is someone with more than 187 hours for Tour 35.

Since I leave my computer on all the time anyway, maybe I should just stay logged on to AH and park a tank in the desert somewhere to rack up some hours.

Then again, I'd probably get UDP'd as soon as my tires left the driveway for the commute to work.

Yeeowza!  yanca13 and Shane probably look a fair shade of brown compared to Bkhawk!

That's 8 + 1/4 hours a day flight time only!!!

Thanks for the input Heinkel!

Geez when someone puts up those kinds of numbers you have to wonder. I mean 548 hours in two consecutive tours!!!! That is 68.5 8 eight hour shifts at a job. I wonder if he even goes outside other than just heading to and from his vehicle to go to work. :D

I guess I do have someone to point to now when my wife says "Why don't you quit playing that damn game so much?"

I put up $1,200 for WB and phone charges combined one month...  No local ISP.  I locked the joystick in a closet for a while after that.

294 hours
If you figure up the hours, assuming he has a job where he spends 40 hours a week that leaves 267 hours or 8.8 hours per day to do things other than AH and work, ie. sleep and eat .

The 294 does not include TA, dueling, Special events, Tower time, and Ship gunner time, planning missions, posting on the BB, troubleshooting and fixing puter problems, etc.  I would guess most players spend at least 15% more time than logged doing this stuff.  (I can probably add 30% or more time.)

So now your looking at 212 hour left for; sleeping, eating, driving to work, cooking, cleaning, etc.
7 hours a day for real life.

eagl: I did that 3 months in a row and nearly got evicted from my apartment. I spent $1400 one month and the other two months were just over $1000. That was in college and I was going to work out for football practice and then maybe going to class or flying WB. The rest of the time I was working as a bouncer/bartender and barely making enough money to keep me addicted to online flying while paying the rent and buying food. That was when I sold every bit of computer equipment I had including my first F-16 FLCS/TQS/RCS setup. I sold all of it for less than $1000 and it was a super duper Intel P90 with built in graphics and sound and two 250MB hard drives. The flight gear was sold for exactly what I sold the computer for to another guy I knew who was in need of flight sim gear for his addiction. He lived a couple of apartments away and ended up getting evicted the next month.

he claims to have a wife as well. I hope no kids........

Youd think playin that much he might actually improve his pilot skills. But alas, skills wont improve when yer busy offending 90% of ch-1.

Hard to beleive he is actually at keyboard that long.  Maybe stays logged in tower hoping to pick up reset perks?

No way anybody could be a parent flying that much. I couldn't imagine putting that much time into a computer game. How could you work flying eight to ten hours a day? :confused: :D

i agree.. and I think the accumulated time doesn't count unless you're actually in a vehicle.. not in the tower

Must be a shared account.  Two or more people using the same login could rack that up easily.

Is there any way to determine if that might be the case?
