Honorable Webmasters:

I note that a plane that retires honorably is still considered "on the Map for purposes of determining league victors, etc.:

Please note: a plane retired with honor, is considered still on the map. See the last paragraphs of the Blue Max rules for more info.


Along those lines, I think that a plane that retires "dishonorably" should get a "-1" score for that pilot, as if they were shot down. This is consistent with the above rule and the fact that planes that retire dishonorably are treated for game victor purposes as if they had in fact been shot down.

This modification would try to keep pilots from running off the wrong sides of the map with minimal consequences, especially if their "side" is ahead and/or eventually wins that particular game.

Also, it would be nice to have a Kills/Death "+/- counter on the league page for that specific league, so that the pilots therein can see how they are doing kills/deaths wise in that particular league, in addition to league and overall points calculations.

Just some thoughts.

This is a good point to discuss. Actually I have discussed with nick about redesigning the league system. Or may be another pointing system.

You know every scoring system got its own purpose.

Let's discuss it briefly.

The "semplified" system encourage newbie to try every move without the risk of special damage and tailing. As an intro to the BM world.

The "standard" system simulate all except for the special damage. For an gamer < 50 games, it is a good system to introduce all the plane.

The "advanced" system served as the original Board version of BM without the altitude and experience system.

What is missing online currently is the experience system and campaign mode.

The further development for the about features is on hold as currently we have only one programmer (nick himself being as a part-time site-admin/programmer/reviewer/developer at the moment.

The "league" system is an add on system try to solve one question. Plane is build different and the only way to testify the skillset of a pilot is to play a series of games. It is to enhance the
1. Statistic
2. alternative as for campaign/experience system.

IN turns of balancing different planes and solving the "pigeon" scenario, the league system serve completely.

However the current system also have deficit.

1. The 8 player mode can only house max of 8 players at once. We should have options in choosing different set of players 4, 16, 32, in the future.

2. The Scoring sys is not perfect. As Troll point out that the Leave board without honor should bear some punishment to prevent some "unwanted behaviour/ non-sportmanship"

I will keep an eye on the thread and keeps talking with Nick on these.

Welcome for comments.
