MJ got some kitty treats :-). Just rendering a new video right now, will be up shortly

Hey, couple of questions for you.
Is there a way in Triple A to see how much damage is on a factory short of progressing to the start of the nation that owns the factory?
I was looking at the league rankings sheet and it seems there is a disincentive for top ranking players to play lower ranked players since they would earn less PPG than they need to maintain their position. Am I understanding that right?
“How the league works” might be a good video topic for you. :)

Increase your map resolution by clicking the Map–>zoom menu to 100% ad you will be able to make out the damage number next to the facility.

Yes. The best way to be an “elite” is to never play tier 2 or 3 players, which kind of sucks.
“How the league works” might be a good video topic for you. :)
That’s a very good idea! Some quiet week when I don’t have much content I will do that. Thanks Tizkit!
-
Ah, right in front of my face. You can see it on my resolution but it’s so small it just looked like misc pixels.
That’s kinda lame about the rankings. Have you seen any appetite for changing the system? (i.e. threads about that) Seems like it’s been that way for years.
-
well it kind of takes care of itself, because if someone tries to manipulate things so that they get a higher ranking than they might deserve, others will challenge them and either beat them down to where they belong or else they refuse the offer and look like a coward. Some will then start making dumb excuses for why they can’t take on any new games at the present time etc. Generally I have found that those types don’t stay around very long. They get bored after a year or 2 and when they accept the fact that they aren’t the Master player they thin they are is about the time they stop playing, instead of working to improve or just enjoying game with people who are at their own skill level. The funnest games are with people who are at your own level; not significantly better or weaker.
-
Well that’s good that it generally works itself out. It still kind of narrows the field of potential opponents in an already narrow field.
You’re right it’s most fun to play a tight game. It’s no fun if there’s little risk of losing or little chance of winning.
It would be nice if there was a handicap system where you could play an opponent from any rank and the win rates would be closer to 50%. It’s gotta be disheartening and hard to keep plugging with some of those super low win rates I see from last year.
-
The bid system is one way to do it. I think for this year I will only play an elite or master ranked player if I am allies and I get a bid of $50. I prefer standard rules to bal mod
-
So how do most people do their bids? I mean for us I just let you pick it because I don’t really know what’s normal, but I thought it would be more of a back and forth until one player won’t go any lower. (that or a blind draw where you both pick a number and the lowest takes allies)
So if you said 50 bid for Allies, wouldn’t the Master/Elite player just underbid that?
I’m thinking it would be nice to have the handicap be separate from the bid… so the lower rank player takes bid+handicap if they get allies and the higher rank player takes bid-handicap if they take allies.
So if a standard bid is 24, and you’d play a masters player for 50, then the handicap would be 26. Meaning you take allies for 24+26=50 or the Masters player takes allies for 24-26=-2.
Would you take axis against an elite/master player with an axis bid of 2?
-
Yes its usually a back and forth until someone agrees to be allies for the lowest price. That’s fine if the players are about equal in skill. In my case I am certain to lose and basically have a lousy experience everytime I play a top player. Its just not fun and it feels pointless. So from now on I won’t play those guys unless I get $50 and i am allies. If they don;t want to agre to that they can go pick on someone their own size
BTW your point about how skewed the ranking are is well taken. I just posted my first 6 games for 2018. I won 4 of the 6 games and I wind up with a ranking of tier 2 :?
-
Yeah you have a couple losses against new players which is no good. At least it looks like when I get ranked it should boost your score. Apparently I’m in the elite group right now. Ha.

congratulations! :-)

Yeah, that didn’t go so hot for the Yanks. I’m surprised you sent in the UK though… was expecting a Gibraltar airbase.
Let me know if you want to submerge the subs and casualty orders for my sub/air hits.

yeah I was thinking of the airbase, but then I decided to gamble. Was hoping to kill some planes
no submerge, max defense
