Topic: New Rankings Feature

I really appreciate what is being done for the game. I like the new Council look, and the new overall look (with the more black less blue), but the new rankings thing is not really an improvement in my opinion.

What do you guys think?

Re: New Rankings Feature

oh, I like the movement from station units to fleetpage too big_smile

Re: New Rankings Feature

I'm happy things are changing, and I agree with the opinion that rankings don't always say which fam has "won". However I also don't know if the new system is sufficient enough to take over, I'm happy the mods try though!

Thumbs up!

Everything to gain

Re: New Rankings Feature

i like some changes as well, but i dont like the new feature where you can't click on a family to see who is in it on the ranking page

Re: New Rankings Feature

Few things that will be pointed out to Stefan when he's around again:

- Pegasus and Helix ranks not showing
- Unclickable families
- "Rank" title for the rank column
- Score should count once round has started (not the case currently in Tri)
- Fam rank link on Family page only links to main rankings page
- Highlighting of your own individual and family ranks, to make it easier to find yourself
- Removal of the second ) after the fam number in fam ranks

Re: New Rankings Feature

gimme the old one back!!!

You have claimed all this time that you would die for me. Why then are you so surprised to hear your own eulogy?

Re: New Rankings Feature

if you click on fam ranking on the fam page the ranking doesnt come up...

just because I slept with you doesn't mean I will snowboard with you

Re: New Rankings Feature

Some things bothering me.

When you click on Ranking in the sidebar, would be cool if the galaxy your in would show up bigger or something

When you select a galaxy, there is no linking to families, I liked to click to find a family and then go to their fampage, but thats impossible now.

When you click Fam ranking in the family page, it doesnt bring me anywhere else then just normal rankings (like Hope said)

...meh...

Re: New Rankings Feature

Hope: "- Fam rank link on Family page only links to main rankings page"


This idea is fantastic. Now people are urged to do better allround instead of in the EOR by jumping. Tho it is very hard for small families to keep up with the top families.
It would be awesome if there are being more rounds played with the same settings. This to see if you're an allround winner or just a lucky round winner.

Re: New Rankings Feature

arsy covered that a few posts up apart from the bigger bit

Re: New Rankings Feature

I like it, what calculations determine the score?

Re: New Rankings Feature

Your fam NW / #1's fam NW * (10 + ticks passed in game / 50)

Re: New Rankings Feature

other suggestion:
A very important aspect of the game is missing in the score system and that is the planet count which imo is more important than the NW, at least half of the score points should be awarded to the planet count of a family.

Re: New Rankings Feature

It should be pointed out that the Hall of Fame should be updated to display families. The new scoring system awards a Family as the winner, not individuals. Which is how it should be. It's a family game of cooperation (or the least dysfunction tongue)

Re: New Rankings Feature

thx for trying tho

Re: New Rankings Feature

Your fam NW / #1's fam NW * (10 + ticks passed in game / 50)


Sound like this formula has 2 parts, one part is different for every family and one part that is the same for all families

[ Your fam NW / #1's fam NW ]

and

(10 + ticks passed in game / 50)

So this mainly prevents big jumps from determining who wins the round.


Though I had the idea that the discussion about who wins the round was more about families fighting nobody all round and saving and saving and then doing one big eor war when the #1 just finishes one and BOOM your on top in size.
I though everybody agreed size was what determines the winner, but that people just disagreed about the way people got biggest in size. But that just a way people play, a new scoring system is not going to solve that.
