This is one thing I would probably like to see changed. The strict one week as one month game times is not very conducive to getting games in with the dynamic of this site. I think there needs to be some more flexibility with that or just plain more time to finish them.

What do you mean by "not very conducive to getting games" and "there needs [..] more time to finish them" ?
I mean, while every week means one historical month has passed, this has almost no influence (for most of the campaign) on the time you have to finish your games.
Apart from the armistice date (18 September) you are not constrained to finish the games in the same month they started. So for example, games created on January 1917 can last, if needed, up to 23 full weeks
Obviously games created later have less time, but even those created on September 1918 (when Sopwith Snipes come out) have still good 3 weeks to be played.
Indeed larger Snipe scenarios might have trouble finishing before the armistice, but that would also some way reflect the difficulty of making such late new plane introduction have effect on the outcome of the war.

OK, I was a bit confused in thinking the games running over were getting cut off from the totals. I usually tried to start about 10 games per week. I want to research what normal plane progression is for pilots on either side and try to follow that more closely.

One thing I might do is restrict the scenarios used so that the monster games with 18 planes pitting all ranges of planes against each other be excluded from the lists. I've never understood the fun in those scenarios unless you really like duck hunting. I might also find a cut off for some of the scenarios so that there are not early war planes fighting late war planes where they would not have in real life.

I know I am suggesting more work but I am only talking out loud. Feel free to ignore me in whole.
