Supri Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 We're coming for you, sanction race, we're coming. With the average amount of score each of your members contributes, it would take one? Also, speaking of score: what's the formula for score?

im317 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 I have to say...ghostbusting isn't nearly as important as you are trying to make it out to be. its not so much important as it is difficult. so hard to kill that 4 NS ghost who sits in peace mode.

Virillus Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 oh man, i know far to well that ghosts are only nations who are not members, and that ghosts are often far more active then members. that said may i ask what your personal opinion on inactive members is? There will always be inactive members. This is a game, and I don't support forcing them to be active. As long as they contribute during wartime, then they don't do any harm by hanging on to your AA. In fact, they do a lot of good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grinch Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 It is the 'sanction' race, so any on the side colour race should only involve the sanctioned alliances. I don't care how the overall colours did per day thanks to how many recruits think blue is their favorite colour, I'm just interested in the sanctioned colour race.

Sceptor o Sordidness Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) It is the 'sanction' race, so any on the side colour race should only involve the sanctioned alliances. I don't care how the overall colours did per day thanks to how many recruits think blue is their favorite colour, I'm just interested in the sanctioned colour race. There is a primary listing which I always interpreted as "race to sanction!" and a secondary listing which just compares the various teams. Why should the separate color race be kept only to sanctioned alliances representing those spheres? I think it's much more interesting to see how the teams are doing as a whole than just to see some of the combined effects among the top 12... The fact that it is the 'sanction race' has little to no impact on how we compare the teams. As far as I'm concerned, this thread is more about the non-sanctioned alliances anyway, and relies on the sanctioned ones only to show how far the non-sanctioned alliances have to go before they cross the proverbial finish line - oh and also to show why the 200 member limit isn't all that logical. That said, I don't think I've ever thanked the folks who continually keep this thread going sooo: thanks. I love me some stats!

Near the top of the chart, Ragnarok took a nosedive, shedding more than a third of a point on the day. Directly below them, The Order of the Paradox settled back into their normal alliance state, as many more Vox members fled the AA. Aside from positive gains with most of the rest of the sanctioned alliances, The Phoenix Federation regurgitated some of yesterday's gain, and allowed recently-fed The Grämlins to pass them again. In their first full day back as a sanctioned power, Grand Global Alliance lost a minute amount of score as well. While the upper alliances just below the Sanction Line seem to be doing the same thing they always do (gain), The Order of Light and Valhalla have gone through a bit of a slump in the past couple days. The Order of Light's loss (and the simultaneous gains of the New Polar Order and the Green Protection Agency, who have added in their distance between them) might be attributed to the extended vacation their famed "curse" has gone on, but I can only speculate as to why Valhalla has been falling backward. Their purple brothers in the United Purple Nations seem to making up for the loss, though, and the losses aren't anything large enough to fret about, so let's move on. The Random Insanity Alliance seems to have been unhappy in the lowest race of the non-sanctioned alliances, so they pushed ahead again today and jumped to the next tier. In doing so, they left lonely NATO heartbroken again; they fell back on The Legion for a rebound. Can't someone find them happiness? Perhaps the Greenland Republic can, who, in their first day, passed Nueva Vida and earned Biggest Gainer. They certainly seem capable of delivering some major love, and perhaps even the additional point of growth needed to reach NATO Finally, everyone give a round of applause to Umbrella, who have breached the Add Line after toiling long right below it, and are probably the smallest alliance in member count to have ever done so. Here's to a successful run in the race, and a continually prosperous tenure on Black. Sanctioned Alliance Net Gains By Colour Blue: 170.05 --> 170.92 (+0.87) Green: 74.04 --> 74.26 (+0.22) Maroon: 28.13 --> 28.34 (+0.21) Red: 76.63 --> 76.81 (+0.18) Black: 63.63 --> 63.77 (+0.13) Purple: 74.81 --> 74.90 (+0.09) Orange: 171.81 --> 171.89 (+0.08) Aqua: 178.82 --> 178.87 (+0.05) White: 47.26 --> 47.01 (-0.25) Commentary Today's losing color is White, as The Phoenix Federation changed their mind about liking to win. Blue capitalized on this and kicked tail. The rest of the colors performed moderately well - special props to Black who secretly got second today (add Umbrella's growth of at least 0.15 to the growth I have listed). Complete Colour Race Blue: 267.64 (170.92) Orange: 245.28 (171.89) Aqua: 226.41 (178.87) Black: 212.02 (63.77) Green: 125.46 (74.26) White: 117.94 (47.01) Red: 112.99 (76.81) Purple: 98.91 (74.90) Maroon: 85.07 (28.34) Yellow: 31.67 (0.00) Brown: 23.33 (0.00) Pink: 23.18 (0.00) No Team: 20.29 (0.00) Commentary and Discussion Alright, there's nothing to comment on. Sanctioned alliances live on the best colors, and Blue leads. What I'd like is some suggestions for the future of the color aspect of the Sanction Race. Do you completely prefer the original color race that accounts for Sanction Race alliances only, or do you prefer the new version with all the colors represented in full? Would you like them to be combined - possibly, calculate the total amount of each color the Sanction Race alliances attribute, and figure some stats from there? I'm open to all suggestions, and you can always implement anything you want in an update of your own. The colors that have a sanctioned alliance are currently bold; colors with other alliances in the race are italicized; remaining colors are without change. -------------------- Related Links: Stats by Unspeakable Evil Lord Sharpe's MDP Web Vote for Cybernations Daily!
