Well until zuperman answers the question it still will be ambiguous. We have different observations. It shouldn't be changed until zuperman explains the definition of deads

Great job you two stat-heads...I appreciate the cunning math and the additional information you guys have obtained from such limited numbers. PH, I like how you were able to identify the "Win Hunters" :lol: However, as I'm not so diplomatic, I don't mind singling these Charlie Sheens out..One in particular, B.O.L.A.S, chickens out and leaves the game every time he sees me in red. Although this gives me immense joy, it's also rather dissapointing. So if your reading this BOLAS, don't be afraid of the Noush, I'll only shoot you down all game long ;)


Man I hate that. So many pilots out there they join the game you bag them 1 time and they rage quit. Calle dose this a lot. Gets in game drops bomb and just starts dogfighting you. So you drop your bomb and shoot him her down. He/she comes at you again with no bomb you kill him/her and he/she leaves. Tons of people that do it. Calle the most. It is slightly annoying. Makes you wonder if he just play's games with and against aspirants or something.

ParrotHead, I like spreadsheets too, and like to extract some hidden information from numbers - I should work on statistics, though...
And about win-hunters: in a certain way, in the last weeks I adopted a behavior to maximize my chances of leveling-up: when I log in, before I chosse the plane, I take a look on its "side": if it is an allied airplane, I return to the main page to log in again, and don't enter a mission unless I can choose the Albatroz (hmmm... no, guys, I'm not a nazi!). The reason is that playing with allied aircrafts, I have no chances of playing DESTROY THE ZEP missions. I am a rank hunter, you can say. Yup!
Besides, I reached a point where I am quite sure I wont improve my gameplaying anymore. My eyes are weak, and the screen is too small. And my left thumb is not working properly. Sum to this the fact that I don't play that much (only one hour a day, and don't play everyday). With such poor skills, I don't expect reaching MORAF in less than 3 years! :lol: So, I need to find a way to speed up a little my ranking up.

And even when I manage to play with an Albatroz, I quit the game as soon as I can read the message telling if it is a "Dogfight!" - and if it is a Capture the Carrier, I only keep on it if it is on its beginning. I like destroying the zep - and when I can't get one, I play bombing the carrier or bombing the base. But my goal is always destroy the zep missions. Is this behavior a bad one? Is it a not-fair-play choice? Answer: I dont care.

But I hate when people rage quit. If I choose to begin a mission (and you can tell it from seeing me playing it more than 10 seconds), I play it to the end, always - unless there is an incoming phone call, or my battery dies, or I lose connection, or when Laura requires my attention (when is Alessandra who does it, I just pretend not hearing her, and only quit the game if she insists and yells at me with "the look" ;) )

By the way, ParrotHead, yesterday (or it was the day before? not sure) we've met in a BTC mission, and unfortunately I received an incoming phonecall. Sorry to make you lose an easy target... :( )

To put it clear to every MOM: when you see me PLAYING on a mission more than 10 seconds, you rest assured I will play it to the end - no matter if I am solo against 7 aces. I don't mind having a negative Kill/Deaths ratio. So, if you see me quitting suddenly after playing a while, that's because one of the reasons I stated above.

Returning to the spreadsheet subject: It would be nice if the forum ranking registered more statistics, like games lost, Zeps destroyed, carriers bombed, etc. But I fear that it would make the game more laggy than it uses to be sometimes... Who knows for sure if it is feasible or not?

I took the RED PILL!

Pedro,

I do not believe the manner in which you choose your games is in any way an unfair practice, whether you care or not ( that made me giggle by the way). I say this because you seek a certain mission type or types and you are not choosing your games based on your opponents. I have become aware that my definition of a "win-hunter" needs to be changed a bit. I see that by some definition, I too am a win-hunter. I will, at the risk of any stat, use all (fair) means to reach a win. Even in games where I am grossly outnumbered, outgunned or simply out-skilled, I will stay to the end holding to the last hangar/10% hoping for reinforcements or a lucky departure of better pilots. This I do not feel is a bad thing and could also be indicated by a high percentage in the win/kill column of my spreadsheet. Where I thought I could simply state that a high number in that column alone would be indicative of unfair/cowardly play, I now realize that many other factors have to be considered and rely most upon my own personal observations.

It would be nice if other stats were available, but I would not want to sacrifice game quality for that either.

Pedro,
Thanks for the thoughts.
I must say, when i see the german plane pop up in the hanger, im saying, "cmon zep, cmon zep, cmon zep!!!"

But if i have to defend i just take it like a good boy and try to kepp the poor zeppy safe.

I like to shoot and bomb with my right hand, so i play the simple cockpit even though my iphone 4s can handle the complex one. Both buttons are on the right AND you get a lot more peripheral vision as well.

Maybe try it out!

Thanks, Wosethisguy, but my left thumb shakes sometimes, and so shakes the entire screen. I am getting used to it...

And about being a "good boy" to defend the zep, I have an extra problem:

a) I am an Old Man, not a boy;
b) I am not good, I am MEAN.

Karma is gone...too much pain in the...for what's worth. With the spreadsheet you can use the drop down arrows at the top to reorganize the list anyway you want.

Is it possible to come up with an 'average' score, so we can see if we are statistically on par, worse or better than everage?

Sure give me a few, I will give the mean but would you like a std deviation also? I don't think this is a very good sample to draw conclusions from and I am not performing the curve analysis to get it right so I would simply be using the regular std dev. percentages to simply say where you are compared to the pack. Ah I will include it since all this talking made me feel like doing it anyway :woohoo:

STD is short for standard and sorry I had my mathie hat on :) So for those who don't know what standard deviation is first count yourself lucky since I HATE statistics in general for many reasons but I will try and briefly explain. When you have a sampling of data and you want to see the distribution for analysis the average is good to know but also is the standard deviation. The standard deviation is sort of like the spread of the data. So within 1 standard deviation of the mean or average includes 68% of the data, within 2 standard deviations is 95% and for 3 standard deviations it's 99.7%. So say for grades in a class the average may be like 70% and the first standard deviation is say 20 that means that 68% of students had grades between 50% and 90%. If the standard deviation was only say 5 68% of students would have marks between 65% and 75%. So here is the data:

Mr Crockett, you are an anomaly! Funny how the numbers have to be taken with what we know about a player. With your kill to hanger ratio it looks like you are a bomb chucking spawn camper!! Of course we know you simply got off to a late start in your bombing career, biiiiiiiig smiles!!!

Too bad we don't have the baseball style stats like KDR...

...with no coffee at 7:00am
...with 3 cups at 10:00am
...After 3 beers at 10 pm
...while your kids are asking you silly questions
...while you are camped out hiding from your wife (or husband or boss or children or whomever)
...when using someone else's device
...when you say "no sweetie continue... I'm listining this time for sure"

Just read this thing for the first time.....certainly interesting stuff. Have to sympathise with Pedrinho though and confess that I partly exhibit the same tendency. I don't like defending the Zep or the CTC missions (though I don't pull out of them) but I do pull out of most of the Dogfights. Not because they don't earn enough points or anything but cos I find throwing the iPad around ceaselessly for 30+ minutes is too much work! Started last summer when I had time on my hands with my foot in plaster....it's was 30C (that's "quite hot" in Fahrenheit) and in ended up soaked after one DF game......but there in lies the flaw to over-analysis of these stats..... I was surprise to see that I was not classified as a "mission hunter" (albeit by just 1%) but truth is, more often than not I'm unable to finish a game, win or loss (cat wants feeding, I need to pee...you know how it is). I'm also not the worlds best hangar bomber....so guess what kills to hangars ratio is quite high....doesn't mean I'm any good. While I've realised that my kils to death ratio is not at all good (knew that before God invented excel), I also saw that my crashes weren't so bad compared to some.... So which numbers do you use? For me, it can't be more than total kills v total deaths.....sure we bomb hangars and carriers and shoot zeps but being alive enough to bomb something is simply a consequence of having fought successfully that far through. Nobody (actually that's an exaggeration) intends to commit suicide on the bombing run, knowing they've no hope...and if they to, refer back to the kills to death ratio..... Of course, game progress relies on points, but if you choose wisely, empty your magazines religiously in zeps, you can make a shedload of points without ever shooting another plane. Hence kills to deaths (including crashes) is the measure I think. The clue is in the title....
