Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

Guys this is a test round meaning that this score thing is a test also,I'll still look at the overall winners of the round as the 1- 2 fams who lead in the 2 other catorgories. Hopefully next round the powers that be will come up with a better scoring system better than what he have now.

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

I really think the scoring idea is ok as a good try to change the game, now do not blame it. Now some people says it is not working as it had to be, ok then blame the formula used but not the whole idea. What I say is if the scoring formula isn't working then bring here some new formulas and we all can study what formula is best. About doing individuals scorings I fully agree on it. So far I think we should start forgetting about size and NW asap once we find a good formula for the score.

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

/ME gives thread a lil nudge

Anybody want to give an idea to fine tune the scoring system? smile

What PP said.

Killing off an inactive shouldn't lower your score.

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

you cannot change the score thing.. it never can fit on nw and planet size. because if you take a planet you gain some score if you lose you lose no score.. so nobody really knows how te score system works.. tongue

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

i think the score should just reflect the overall rate of a family at that time... so one fam has so many planets and so much nw, calculate it, and it gives a score, next tick you loose half the planets, you get less score... if anyone understands me... so it shouldnt be that the fam that has been on top for most of round wins, but gets beaten to death at eor in a war,... and also make it so p-count is more important... its just a "rough" idea though...

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

with 1086 having a steady advantage of over 15m NW on 1055 all the time, we actually close in on their score...

On tick 29 of year 24 the score difference between the fams was: 20146
21 ticks later, Week 50, 24 the score difference was decreased to: 19630

So in 21 ticks the gab closes by 516 points tongue

516 points in 21 ticks, thats about  24,6 points per tick.

Meaning we have to maintain the 15m NW difference for over 818 ticks, thats another month!

Great system big_smile

"Score is what determines the winner. It is added to on every tick"

No one is gonna respect the score as the winner till it better reflects everything. How long did it take 70/91 to pass 63 in score when they already had them raped? 55 hasent been a dominate fam in 2.5 weeks and yet there still #1 while there dying and gave up and as i said, removing an inactive or someone new deleting every 48hrs should not reflect your score the way it does atm, I know it reflected ours the whole round. Ranked 14th in nw 18th in size and dident lose 1 war as of 3 weeks ago and yet we were 31st in score and the best part was we got the better of 2 top 5 fams.

Unless stefan fixes it u might as well remove it

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

Im always in favor of keeping what u have and just fixing it and im not sure how to fix the scoring, but nw and size should play a big role in it and now who deletes or gets removed or whos been #1 in score for sooo long.

Size has been the deciding factor of who won the round like 90% of the time. Losing a war to the 2nd ranked fam in size who is also top in nw would obviously have u 2nd and not 1st. U cant claim to win the round when u lost to anyone that round imo.

In anycase nw should play a key role in socring, but size should play a bit of a bigger role and if possible fams winning p's in a faster fashion then normal ( meaning winning a war) and fams losing p's faster then normal ( losing a war) should be rewarded or penalized. No way should a fam who lost 1k planets still be ahead in score of the fam who took 1k from them. also a fam ranked 31st beating or doing well against a top 10 fam should be rewarded while the top 10 fam should be penalized.

How to do all this? I got no idea lol, i suck at this stuff, but sometimes the best way is too keep it simple, just have nw score be a good part, size be a bigger part and dont allow the new players who get removed or delete within days to effect the fams score negatively..

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

how about making each planet worth so many points? so that when a war starts and someone loses 1k planets to another fam those points change hands....infra could also play a part as points as well just not worth as much.

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

why couldnt it be filtered? plus...since when does NW mean hardly anything at BOR anyways? people jump back and forth so quickly and most of the time the top fam at BOR gets raped either during it or right after expo phase.

however, point worth COULD change during the round couldnt it?

all im saying is that yes, it could still be affected by how long you are higher ranked....but lets say that the #1 fam has been ranked there for half the round now and the #5 fam complete smashes them....takes em down from 3k to 1.8k planets and they go up from 2k to 3.2k now. they should automatically gain all the points that the #1 fam accrued from having those planets and any infra they keep...will the #1 fam drop to 30th in the score? no because they were #1 so long they may drop to 7th or 8th...but that would be realistic!

Re: new scores are kinda crappy ;)

I have two, I think very easy, request I think certain people share with me.

1. Can the rank thin for Capri just be the first on in the list? Everytime I want to check ranks there is first MW, then Andromeda, Triangulum, Saggie Dwarf, then Draco, Pinwheel, Virgo and Helix before we finally arrive at the galaxy everybody is playing! And from all these galaxies above Capricorn only one is actually also playing for ranks (Draco)...

2. Would it be possible to code in that when you click one "fam rank" on someone elses fampage to highlight that fam instead of your own?
