We have a new #1
Target is now on Allweneedislove’s back :-)
Or Zhukov, who is now the only remaining undefeated player with more than 1 win (he has 8)
-
Zhukov has 8 wins
8 followed by ) makes 8) for those who don’t know
-
looks like kabloom is waiting till next year to go for his win. eqqman on the other hand is scratching at clawing at the ceiling of tier 3! cmon eqq, one or two more wins!
-
Zhukov is in trouble against cow, but that game seems to be on ice for the moment.

Gamerman, are the Axis stil rocking ahead on kills?

The Axis had a lot of wins in the last 20 results or so. Before that, it was almost tied.
Look to the right in the spreadsheet. Bottom right.
Axis 92
Allies 75So Axis is significantly ahead right now.

hmm, Axis are just shy of winning 30% more of the time… not too bad I suppose for balance.
Although, I’ve always wanted it to be the other way around with the Axis the ones pressed to win…
I guess Larry likes the Axis. Who knew?

people just don’t know how to play the Allies yet
-
Gamerman, who has the most wins as the Allies, we should consult him!
-
probably you karl.
-
huh? really? I doubt that…. or maybe that explains why I got kicked out of tier 1… :lol:
-
Jeff has the most wins at 10, but I have the highest winning percentage at 8-1
I’m not seeing the Allied disadvantage, no :-)
-
the axis have the advantage. this is shown in that players are bidding for the right to play the axis.
the allied to axis win ratio does not show which side has the advantage. it shows that bids are not high enough.
-
Thanks for weighing in, allweneed
I respectfully disagree that the Axis have the advantage for the reason that people are bidding for the Allies. That just means that the PERCEPTION is that the Axis have the advantage, and perhaps they do.
Or perhaps a lot of players don’t know how to play the Allies to their potential and the Axis are much more straightforward and harder to stop for inexperienced players. At least half the league playing field, I think, is pretty inexperienced at playing G40.
Now that said, I agree with you that the 92-75 current record shows that Allied bids are not high enough. For the time being. Until we collectively have more experience.
But what do I know. I haven’t watched any of these games - it takes too much time.
I do know that if you take Eggman out of the equation, the record is 79-68

Well, this is why I track Axis vs. Allied play, by player.
Perhaps we have a few players who are just a lot better at playing one side than the other. Or several players.
Let’s look:
Stalingradski Axis 4-0 Allies 0-2
Ziggurat Axis 6-0 Allies 3-4
Wheatbeer Axis 10-5 Allies 0-2
Snake11eyes Axis 5-2 Allies 3-5
JWW Axis 5-2 Allies 2-7
Eggman Axis 0-0 Allies 7-13
Variance Axis 3-4 Allies 1-6Most everyone else has a roughly comparable record taking Axis or Allies
I think the answer lies in the answer to this question:Do the above players’ experiences demonstrate that there is a significant Axis advantage, or are the above players just a lot more effective at playing the Axis than the Allies? Probably some of both.
I think Eggman would say that the Axis have a big advantage, but he hasn’t played as Axis in league. If he played 20 games as Axis, then we could talk.
Yes, my guess/opinion is that overall, it’s easier for the relatively inexperienced G40 player to win with the 3 Axis powers. Playing the Allies in G40 is very different than any previous Axis and Allies challenge/experience. I agree with Bold that on the whole, players are not playing the Allies as effectively as they are the Axis.
About a month ago, the record between Axis and Allies was almost tied. Axis have been on a run lately. We’ll see what happens in the future - it’s interesting.
