I don't think we should take away victories from any pilot. It is interesting historically that the Sopwith 1½ Strutter did not have a terrific history of kills either for the British or the French. It was certainly used more by the French.

If you want to set a max no of victories per sortie I can do that. The only problem is that my stats would not agree with WOFF. Maybe the number of points per victory could reduce with increasing victories. But it all becomes a menace to calculate.

How about 1-5 victories score 5 points each
6-10 victories score 4 points each
11-15 victories score 3 points each
16-20 victories score 2 points each
20 upwards score 1 point

I reckon I could do that somehow.

Or: as Olham says:
"What I am thinking about is this - we could count per sortie:

1 - 3 victories = 1 victory
4 - 6 victories = 2 victories

and more than 6 victories count as 3 victories - more won't be accepted.

What do you others think about this proposal?" (Olham)

No, we can't change the number of official victories but we can muck about with the number of points earned. So to change what you propose above, I could calc

1 victory in ONE sortie = 5 points
second victory = 4 points (9 total)
third victory = 3 points (13 total)
fourth victory = 2 points (15 total)
any more victories in ONE sortie = 1 point for each

So 11 victories in ONE sortie would give 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 21 points (as opposed to 11 * 5 = 55 at the moment)

We have a while to make up our minds as it is pouring with rain outside burger
