Bomer! When did you earn the zebra stripes? I haven't been so much around lately so I didn't notice! Congrats!

Few days ago. Not too long and thx.

I dont think I am to good....but I do think I am getting a little better

I suck but I alwase try

You are sooooooo goooood veidar2 oh boy u had the sky let up by the flames of the dogfight idk how but I won we had a tie for most of the game???

Hey, im not on your list bomer! lol

Id say Sky is the best turner, Mbizzi, Watup, Bomer, and a huge list for best head on, Bomers the best spawnkiller, and Fighter is the best a55h013.

Skydavis - how dare you! You are never a fail, YOU ARE THE ACE! and thats me speaking from seeing you tear the sky wide open!

Also Vampire, yukikaze, 420, I dont remember everyone so if ive played you and you arent here then my apologies.

Thanks for the praise, poisonous one, - praise that I'm not worth, really, - but you know, some days it seems that everything I point at goes down in flames! Other days I follow the same plane for "hours" and never get him down.

And then there are times when my plane is unbelievably agile and others when any old Sopwith can outturn me and I have to watch my tail all the time!

you forgot me bomber jk im not very good

Calvin I would love to put u on there but I have only played u 3 times. All the people that are on that list I play alot. Same goes for u blain, I rarely see u on. But laat time I played u kicked my butt,

The following quote is the rank list from the thread "who are your idols in the game". I'll make another one for this thread.

They are all good fighters, but not just that. They have earned their popularity also by being helpful, fair and good comrades in arms.

Below is a list of the 26 who have received more than one vote.

Please note that this must not be seen as a reliable ranking list.
The number of votes has as much to do with chance as it has with popularity, and many names are missing, but those who are on the list certainly deserve it.

The list does, however, give us an idea of what the forum writers think:

These 26, and the many others who should have been listed alongside with them, are seen as examples of what a Dogfight player should be:

They are excellent players who act in ways that make others respect them and want to honour them!

I have excluded Zuperman from this list, because I believe most players didn't think of him as eligible. If they had thought so, he would have been on top.

When can you play bomer? Can u get on around 5:00 pacific time?

vampire is damn near impossible to kill

Sry calvin I cant, I only play 11-4:30 any time between, but I dont have a schedule. ill private message u when I get on.

vamp doesn't play anymore he quit, the other one is askal. He is good too, but the orignal one was really good. Like better than mbizzi, vaskal, and all other top players. He was better at chasing then head on though.

The ranking system is ok enough, although the workings of the ranking criteria are somewhat mysterious.

What is most important to a pure beginner who visits the on-line game for the first time is to be able to fly around a little and perhaps shoot a few bursts at this and that player without being put down immediately.

One thing that can make a leutenant quit is being spawn-killed repeatedly.

To these players, I believe, ranking details mean little.

For both of them, a friendly welcome and some advice will help enormously!

Bomber private message me too i enjoy kicking your butt

Hmm Seattle, I wonder if it would be possible to assign players to games based on a rank range? Like, first player randomly assigned, then the game is locked to admit ranks of +/- a certain range. It would keep aspirants freer of high skillers, and vice vers&. Spme problems with this that I see:
1) Aspirants do benefit a lot from being around skilled players, especially those who teach
2) When player volume is low, players could find themselves all alone in a game more often than now. This could be addressed by having a more complex assignment algorithm based, say, on player volume, but I can't speak for Z on whether it's worth doing.
3) There are more but typing on my phone is a pain!

Manfred

Manfred I think I read something like this in one of old topics, but how will the new players will get better if they fight noobs.

that is true

Reid engma!!!!!!
Lolz

WTG to ones who made the list!

Thats true, u need to fight aces to get better, and the game is getting diluted with noobs. Being a major general doesnt mean jack s**t anymore. I think u should be able to choose to create your own game, keep it password protected, so u xan play your friends.

K, thanks bomer! btw, 11-4:30 pacific or midwest?

Reid I didnt mean to forget u, you and yoooo are still the chasing maaters.

Really? I'll have to test that. Lol we never get to that point.

Jeez, Sky's right, I do brag.....

Maybe i will make the list once i hit the rank of air marshal....
