With as Many players there are in this game,there should b a top 200 players acknowledgment at the least. Top 300 sounds better, I understand it would be a little harder to make a list like this and be able to update it weekly.I think there is a whole other class of pilots in the 200-500 ranks that are very hungry and more determined then the class that is always nominated and renominated each week. Just a thought,no offence to the top 100 they are there for a reason.

Love,vIp,tailzzzzz

Yup great post yellow...in my experience (not that I've been in it! lol)the top 100 is a hard fought number that takes a lot of time to get to, and stay there,it may dilute the efforts of those to get there if there were another 100 top spaces available? At least with 100 it keeps you hungry if you want to be there enough..just a thought, yours is as valid a point yellow....

With over 276 MORAFs currently I can certainly understand everyone above the 100 mark wanting to see their full stats, (which CAN be done by searching on Ranking) but also being able to see those in your immediate vicinity would be a plus I am sure!

This is something that would have to be presented to zuperman or perhaps Jacob1000 to get activated.

Most of the calculations and charts are done by hand. There is no easy spreadsheet with everyone's data on it to just print. This is labor intensive. To ask for someone to extend the list out another 100+ names will require that person to devote a lot time to put it together. You just need to consider this in asking for the additional postings.

Just sayin'

It would be nice to be able to scroll through to any ranking. To be able to search by name or world rank, then to get a thousand at a time with NEXT/BACK arrows to see the next set.

There could be other algorithms:

* If there was some weight to the ratios, all you need to do now to get high in the rankings is to forsake real life for a bit, just keep hitting retry. I made it up to #51 at one point. I just couldn't bring myself to cross that next line. :lol:

* If points had "half life" they would lose value over time: they could become worth 1/2 as much after 3 months, it would be a ranking of the current most active players. For now, just imagine: if Davy never played again, how long would it take a dedicated noob to overtake him? :S


* If other accomplishments were weighed, other skills and commitments would be reflected. If carrier hits or captures counted in some way... If a great defense of the zeppelin would receive more than just not losing... Sure you get points for wins but not everyone can stick around for games that go on and on. There are plenty of good players who aren't able to dedicate their undivided attention to dogfight.

* If you got additional points for "beating the odds." If you got more points if you made it back to base without getting killed... If points were weighed based on how uneven the teams were...


*If the sky was yellow and the sun was blue... :P

If things were weighed for any particular reason it would probably create more reasons for someone to focus only on certain things. I suppose total accumulated points is as good as any other system. After all, it shows who are the most dedicated Dogfight players of all time. (Well... it shows who has been most dedicated since after Zup made it so you can keep your points even if you don't land.)
:woohoo:

Mcfate amigo aver las estadisticas no son reales.hay pilotos con mejores estadisticas y estan por debajo.yo mismo tengo mejores estadisticas que muchos de mas arriba.pero esta montado asi.yo siempre he dicho que
deberia ser mas muertes primeros puestos.de que trata este juego?el piloto que mas derriba
siempre debe estar mas arriba,y apartir de hay
las demas estadisticas.por otra parte los 100 es el top.la motivacion de alcanzarlo,el mantener esa vida en el juego.es el premio que merecen todos los pilotos que estamos hay el
mayor premio que recibimos por nuestro esfuerzo.siempre intento escalar mas,asi la
ilusion y las ganas de jugar nunca las pierdo
es nuestra recompensa al esfuerzo.aunque ya digo como haria yo todo no tiene nada que ver
a como esta estructurado.pero yo no le dicidi
yo no estoy mirando continuamente la tabla de
la clasificacion,otros si lo hacen y ademas
juegan todo el dia de hay numeros,al igual que si vuelas sin bomba,muchos killer pocos derribos.todo es injusto.no deberian ser esas
posiciones en muchos casos.y si te vas a las
estaciones"noche, dia,nublado,tormenta,y cada uno con un clima diferente incluso en el mismo
juego que credibilidad te da esa clasificacion? Uno que solo mata nuevos y casi
no es derribado,que credibilidad te da esa
clasificacion.las estadisticas no son las que
deberian.pero.yo.mcfate le doy mucho mas valor
a poder jugar bien y poder divertirme sin que
haya retraso o invisibilidad.no estoy para nada pendiente siempre de mis estadisticas no juego todo el dia tampoco con el ansia de
poder mejorarlas no mcfate,yo solo quiero
poder jugar que por dedesgracia cada ves se
juega peror eso es lo que mas me preocupa un saludo.

McFate friend aver statistics are not reales.hay pilots with better stats and myself are below have better statistics that many more arriba.pero is mounted I've always said that asi.yo
should be more deaths puestos.de first trying this game? the pilot who more trips
You should always be above, and starting from there
Moreover estadisticas.por the other 100 is the top.la motivation to achieve it, maintaining that life in the juego.es deserve the prize that all pilots who are there the
prize we receive for our esfuerzo.siempre attempt to climb more, so the
illusion and desire to play never lose
It is our reward to esfuerzo.aunque and I say this as I would do all it has nothing to do
estructurado.pero to as this will not dicidi
I'm not continually looking table
the classification, others do and also
play all day ay numbers, like if you fly without pump, many killer few derribos.todo is unfair should not be those
positions in many casos.y if you go to
stations "night, day, cloudy, storm, and each with a different climate even in the same
game that gives you credibility that classification? One that only kills nearly new
is not down, it gives you that credibility
CLASSIFICATION? statistics are not what
I should, but I McFate give much more value
be able to play well and to have fun without
there is late or I'm for anything invisibilidad.no necklace always my statistics do not play all day with no craving
to improve nó McFate, I just want
to play unfortunately increasingly
plays peror that's what worries me more regards.

Actually, the game rankings are entirely automatic, so much so that at one point it was a problem. Zuperman had to change the ranking from real time updating to periodic recalculation because the system was using a significant amount of data just to keep current.

Stats are interesting but they seem to be most valuable only for setting personal goals. Where is the funometer? :lol:

It would be interesting for curiosity sake to be able to see different lists based on different priorities. The raw data already exists. It seems like it might not be too difficult to have different filters on what determined the rankings but I wouldn't want Zup to spend his already limited time on it.... that's what we have Vivek Sang for! Thanks Vivek!

Wow! Nice Zeb! What's the resolution on that thing? Is it completely analog? Does it flip back and forth a lot? If you're feeling down, can you hack it with a magnet? I suspect that in your case it stays pegged to the right a lot of the time. What about when you get shot down? Does it pop back up as soon as you respawn?

I could help in stats even for pilot over 250 rank if the squad can fwd me the info of their members in excel format every 15 days. I need only following information.

Pilot Name, Present World Rank, Kills, Deaths, Hangars, Won

I can send excel format if any squad is interested. Please PM me with email address.

You give me the required info, I will do the rest.

Happy Compilation.
