@Gamerman01:

Never noticed that, Eggman - you are a detailed oriented person and that will serve you very well in A&A

Well I work in an engineering field at the moment so I spend a lot of time reviewing data sheets to make sure components are being used properly.  Which also means I’m always ready to nitpick a rule on a moment’s notice…

Tell Wally hi for me  :-)

If you want another odd detail, Zhukov44 is always listed as Zhukov4 in the titles of the game threads, so I couldn’t tell you how they prefer to be credited.

Yeah, thanks.  He must have changed his name, too, because he was Zhukov44 for years

There are more than that, because I haven’t looked for new active games in several days.  :-)

It’s time for some Triple A:

Analysis of Axis vs. Allies

[gamerman01]

Analysis complete.

Conclusion: Somewhat inconclusive.  It does appear that it’s close to an even match.  Personally, I’m skeptical that small Allied bids are having a significant effect, considering the grand scope of the game.

Frankly, MOST of the league games played have been mis-matches between players, and/or players are very inexperienced with this game.  It only takes one of the two players to not really know what they’re doing, to give a misleading result.

The jury is still out.  More data needed, especially between players who are really good with one side.

It would be interesting to see Bold (6-1) or Jeff (6-2) play Axis vs. Jeff (9-3) or Karl (7-4).

I am aware that Bold (x) IS playing Jeff (Allies) and the game is nearly over.
I am also aware that in this game, it has really been going back and forth, with each player sure they were going to lose it (the game, that is) at different times.

No wonder they had some conflict.  The proverbial unstoppable force just met an unmoveable object.

So I conclude that so far, it looks like this game is quite “balanced”.  Yay!

Check out the new columns way off to the right.  You can now see quickly who played who, and how successful each player is with Axis or Allies.  Very handy information, before you start bidding with somebody!  If they’re 10-1 with Axis and have never played as Allies, guess which side they want?!  Let them have their Allied bid - don’t bid them down!  :evil:

I also see Bold(x) beat Karl once.
We need a lot more games like that, between experienced players who are very competent especially with one of their sides.

How long did that game go, guys?  Was it close?

[gamerman01]

If you know who played which side in any of the “unknowns”, please let me know.

Interesting stats:
Tier 1 players are 35-9 with Axis, 35-13 with Allies
Tier1+
Tier2 players are 42-18 with Axis, 37-20 with Allies

All players are 46-41 with Axis (41-46 with Allies)

Again, because there is so much inexperience involved, I myself would NOT conclude that Axis have the slight edge.  Also, as in previous versions of A&A, it is easier for inexperienced players to win with the Axis because they don’t have to plan as many complicated strategies and coordinate powers nearly as much.

We’ll see what it looks like after we have more results from moree experienced players going head to head

thank you gamerman for all the work.
i love all the stats you are putting together.

to clear up the unknown beside mine and suprise attack’s names, i was allies.

i assume it is too time consuming to track all the bids, but that would be awesome.

[gamerman01]

Thanks for the note -

I didn’t do bids because there has been such consistency.  The vast majority of bids have been between 3 and 10

I will enter the info you just gave me
