no because you don't get shoot down (deads) that much. So it all works out.

look at your rank? I never said or implied that you did stink. I actually stated otherwise compared with what is being concluded and implied on this thread.

Learn to brake the moment you spawn. learn to land better so you don't land upside down...avoid the invisible collider if you know about it....all these should be included into ones ability....and again you do not "suck" cause your ability in killing, bombing, winning, etc. more than offsets all of that. Your rank of #14 shows you ARE a fabulous pilot.

Oh my, Rick, it's so hard to type and not laugh at the same time!


I like the idea of weighting, but not sure how it should be done. I know that I've seen players try (some better than others) to concentrate on shooting all the reds they can, and lose the mission; in fact it seems glory hounds don't do much winning, and forgo maximizing the potential mission maximum. How to gauge what's more difficult? Good question. Should higher ranks be worth more? Definitely. Should obnoxious Texans like myself count for twice the going rate? Quite possibly. Bonus points for blasting the kids playing past their bedtimes on devices they haven't earned themselves? All day long!

O you guys have me laughing.

This thread just shows how anything can be argued about in DF. Lmao

The stats in this game are blown out any way. We all know that. You could spend your whole day spawning in as a German and popping around killing zeps while your team fights the enemy and your points would be amazing. You could sit around and watch every game to its conclusion and rack up wins for nothing. Cough....cough......plu......

I would like to see a total games played stat so I knew how much of my life I have currently wasted on DF. :) it has to be close to equal to what I have won. May be 3/4 to 1/2 any how. It is a whole lt thats for sure. Ask my wife.

Every one has there niche in a game. Mine is straight up the middle sniping from afar or in a chase. I don't make it to bomb much but i can kill every thing in sight most times which almost always results in my death. The odds of making it to bomb are not in your favor down the middle. If its you against one red you have to shoot him down atleast 3 times in a plane and 3 times in a chute to make it. Possibly 4 and 4. Multiply that times every player in a game and your odds sink fast. I can beat the enemy back and clear a hole for my team or hold the line for as long as I have to. Kills high/hangers bombed low. I have medium tank skills and stay out of one unless I'm real close to target. It's a free kill on me and doesn't do my team much good. As a paratrooper I am average. I just do it to get a couple more planes or chutes so my team can get farther towards target plus 50 points for hitting the ground aint bad. Don't really understand how it rates 50 but hey I will take it.

Now who do i pay to make my stats better? :) Tex or Whip ???????????

Between myself, Parrothead, Whiplash, and Big Tex, it looks like these numbers have been crunched to a fine powder, (smell this but do not inhale,)

The more I think about it, I'd rather know time played instead of number of games played.

My other game I play a lot has a score per minute played stat. You can see pretty clearly who understands how to get the points quickly; but you cant see if they are playing to accomplish the mission objective and win.

I like the combat effectiveness idea but I dont exaclty understand the math, Tex. interestingly, I move only one rank between the stock game ranks and Tex's combat effectiveness rank method.

Also very interesting that there used to be a lost games data field.

Thanks Whip and Tex for your creative solutions to learn what we can here without all the data we really need.

The whole point of this thread in my mind, was to try and learn from and about other players' styles and tactics.

Nerrrrrrrrrdddddddsssss!!

Earth to Swop... Come in Swop...

Swopster, I was being ironic! "Learn to brake"? Are ya kiddin' me? The moment braking has any appreciable impact on spawn crashing - whether entering a mission double-pre-crashed or re-spawning belly up - that's the moment I'll invite you to a picnic on this quaint little bridge I own in Brooklyn.

Seriously, Swop, despite any contrarian remarks you're about to type, there ain't no cure for spawn-crashin'.

And thank you very kindly indeed for the generous words... :)

Well its helped me to immediately brake when spawning. Try it. Does it work all if the time? No. My crash total is rather small but i still think you better than me and the rank and i thought i could help you and others.

Just leave it :) . Wig already said he sucks, I can live with that ;) .
If you look at your's and Wig's stat's.... The average is almost twice on everything on wig's part, except death's, which mean's he has wayyyy many less death's than you....and he is actually about even to less with crashes too....


Ohh crap gotta go.... gotta go help fix a hay rake....


Edit: Now me, haha.... I SUCK....

Another Edit: OK, 1 hour in and I better say, I've been in touch with Wig. He know's I'm joking...He wasn't even mad at me... Gotta Love The Wig..... :woohoo:

To quote Benjamin Disraeli (or Mark Twain, depending on your school of thought) : -

Lies, Damn Lies & Statisitics. :blink:

Opinions do make for interesting reading tho. ;)

Not statistics...data analysis. It would only be statistics if this were a sample and we were trying to predict what the whole of dogfight is doing. Even if we were we should be ashamed since our sample group certainly isn't random :) or a good representation of the whole. :whistle:

Interesting observation on crashes. I just observed a different total. Almost twice as much. I know im not that good either. The point is that we shouldn't discredit crashes. I only have about 3600 total We should be careful not to crash. My first post in response to wig stands.

I knew he was joking already. I love to give compliments that are honest. And you and wig are great players whether or not you think so. I i always like playing you guys and that the truth.

Wiki says:-
Some consider statistics a mathematical body of science that pertains to the collection, analysis, interpretation or explanation, and presentation of data,[5] while others consider it a branch of mathematics[6] concerned with collecting and interpreting data.
