Yes Woof1, somehow you make my point for me. Kretschmer was the very best, a submarine genius, and I am most certainly not. But I will routinely have got 244000 after just 4 patrols. This is not because I am better, it is because for a variety of reasons it is much easier to rack up big scores in the game than it was in real life.

By comparing your score with the ace's historical scores you are not comparing like with like.

So if you multiply the Ace's scores by, say, three, then you are in someway moderating their scores to be what an in-game ace would achieve.

Anyway, it's just an idea.
