Estoc Trials - Week #4 War #2 - General Update

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by admin, Apr 23, 2013.

  1. Signups: 40
    No Match: 6

    AMUN_RA - Odd man out situation, the higher clan size made it slightly difficult, but there were possible matches. It was just an odd number.

    SILVER - Odd man out situation, the lower clan size made it slightly difficult, but there were possible matches. It was just an odd number.

    Dragons Elite - Member Size was too high

    Team_Cold_Cash - BFA over 2X higher than any clans near you in build size.

    S.O.T.R.A - Lower build size, but over 3X higher BFA than clans near you.

    Wolves Of The Oasis - Odd man out in the lower tier of clan strengths.

    Clan Size breakdown

    As per usual, we will be monitoring clan BFA numbers and we will address any suspicious activity throughout the coming war. Please keep BFA changes post-sign up to a reasonable minimum! Anything beyond that and you will be warned and risk losing rewards and/or match-ups!
     
  2. Oooooo fancy new layout! Me likey...
     
  3. Thanks devs
     
  4. Thanks devs, me gusta new graph
     
  5. Thanks for the breakdown - we are usually outnumbered by about 10% or so in our match ups. So we decided to outnumber other clans - so we could have the perks like more xstals to use, etc. Guess that don't work either :/
     
  6. We didnt match said we had to many peeps
     
  7. I agree were constantly outnumbered by 2-3 but when we are the one to outnumber another clan we.get no match
     
  8. seems to me your 25-40 req for war should change to 25-32 since everyone 33+ gets no matches
     
  9. Murder war vs warlor hellhounds matchup stats please?
     
  10. Murder war:
    36 on strength LB
    31members
    12 HLBC accounts warring
    17 accounts in top 50 clan rank
    14 accounts in bottom 50 clan rank

    Warlor hellhounds
    28 on strength LB
    31 members
    16 HLBC accounts warring
    24 accounts in top 50 clan rank
    7 accounts in bottom 50 clan rank
    ----------------------------------------------------------
    Murder war given rank 7/40, warlor 8/40? They outweighed us in every strength category? I'd like you breakdown devs; that is mine.

    Im less worried that we were outgunned, I'm MORE worried that the devs thought we had an advantage!

    Thanks for the war though hellhounds. You guys are great, and well deserving of a win.... I'm just curious about the breakdown, and how we were ranked higher.
     
  11. Looks like less and less is warring, wonder why? Hmmmm
     
  12. Check out the devs recent match up ... -RCA- v Zaft .. They were much bigger up top 5 of top 10 all LB for zaft... Tough fight there
     
  13. Devs, pls reply to post 11, would like to see how do u guys rate us so big to match Warlor HH size ??

    Much R.E.S.P.E.C.T to warlor hh 
     
  14. Naked and famous kings vs. empire rising....?? NaF kings were stronger supposedly.. But empire rising had 3 more people. Don't see how that is fair. NaF kings got destroyed. Much respect to empire rising
     
  15. Still waiting in a response, devs. Also possibly regarding the naked and famous kings vs ER match? I didn't look into those numbers as deeply as my wars' numbers, but having 3 less cannot possibly mean they had an advantage .
     
  16. Bump.... This isn't going away devs
     
  17. Dragon Elite, it amazes me how much y'all complain about ee wars, I went through 20 of your recent wars, and guess what you outnumber multiple clans too, yet I didn't see you complain then. If you don't like how devs are running ee wars now, here's a suggestion, maybe you shouldn't war anymore.
     
  18. When we calculate ranking, we actually look more at the distribution of members within a clan and run a simulated war scenario to see who would win. In this case, Murder War was ranked #7. This simulation is of course not meant to be 100% accurate, but it does allow us to sort them in a semi-intelligent manner.

    After the rankings are made, we then look the the numbers themselves (BFA, Build Strength, Size, etc) to find the best possible match. In this case, it is Warlor. Because this is considered the best match, they are then made to be rank #8. Moving on, the next clan in the original, sorted, list is now rank #9.

    I wouldn't put too much weight behind the actual rankings, 90% of the work is done in step 2, where we find the best possible match. The ranking just gives us an initial sort of the clans that signed up, to help with step 2, which is the crucial part of the process.

    Hope that helps! :)
     
  19. Nice graph!
