LB Reform: The Metallicana Experiment

Discussion in 'Strategy' started by The_Philosopher, Jan 2, 2013.

  1. I dunno... The current way stops people like Redstar just nobbing. It stops the richest people irl from staying top due to money.
     
  2. Support, might give the little people that are rich a chance rather then an old school player based LB
     
  3. agreed.
     
  4. So the more rich you are the higher your leader board ranking would be because it doesn't matter on actions the way you want it, all that matters is gold you have to buy allies and hlcbc, lb would become who is the biggest nobility abuser..

    And besides, I doubt this is anywhere close to fair, why don't you get to 700k battle wins then complain about how actions shouldn't be part if the overall leader board.

    And because your overall is higher than any of the other rankings means nothing. People could abuse nobs, get to top ally lb and be low on battle wins, thus making them higher than Metallicana on ally, or people could get high on battles and not invest well, making them lower on ally's then Metallicana and higher on battles. Value is bs anyways. So having I higher overall than your avg ranking means your an all rounder instead of trying to be the best at whatever your decent at, he has worked to equally improve everything.
     
  5. How high does the leader board show? Like when it says your kingdoms rank. Where does it cut off at?
     
  6. The strongest player leaderboard has had the same "top" players listed in the same positions for eons, very unlikely that anyone would be able to catch up to them unless they quit lol. Everyone should have a fair chance to earn a spot on the lb. The the overall strongest player leaderboard is the only one that seems to be set up this way. Many games reset their leaderboards periodically, I'd say reset the leaderboard, or the ranking system should be changed/and or improved. This can really balance out the game and give players more to strive for. The Devs most likely wont be on board anyway as alot of their revenues comes from the lb... But,

    Support ;-)
     
  7. Where you compare stats, you mix up two completely different numbers with different meaning and also assume that one is convertible into another.
    Those are actual POWER STATS visible only to the account holder and BONUS TO ALLIES, which is the ("CS") everyone is using.
    Noy going any further than this, because this same misunderstanding is working to the advantage of many.
    Hope you don't get it;)
    However I hav no idea how the LB is worked out and don't pretend to know if it's skewered or not.
     
  8. Metalicana was on the LB before the PW era
     
  9. I do enjoy your threads Phil and I somewhat support your efforts.

    Mostly everyone is in agreement on this thread that the Ally LB is more indicative of true strength. I agree, the fine print on the Overall LB should not say "most powerful" and be more accurate. Probably, something to the effect of most active, most patronage, or most time spent on PWARs/EBs.

    But I disagree with the rest, total actions should still play a part on the overall LB. It rewards those players that have stuck around playing. Even if they were xstaling or attacking an EB, that amount of actions would take a long time to achieve.

    Just my two cents. 
     
  10. @ amigo

    thanks for the honest opinion. Much respect.
     
  11. Is op trying to say metalicana is a fraudster
     
  12. No OP just tries to sound like a deep thinker. Though, the redundancies of his monologues hint towards a pathological need for anonymous approval of his desperately self insinuated intelligence, his attempts, nonetheless, imply that he is unhappy within his own skin and by seeking solace in the depths of the Internet, he somehow can pretend superiority amongst his online peers whom he regards as idiotic unless they agree with him or approve of his opinions.
     
  13. Ouch 

    Sounds about right, though 
     
  14. Mr. Thesaurus sounds a mite jealous of Phil.
     

  15. This from a guy who announced he is running for president on the forums. :lol: Gee sorry cynder that my threads tend to be more popular than yours. You might note, however, that my threads deal strictly with Kaw-related topics that affect everyone's gameplay. I don't go around grandstanding about how I should be elected president. To me, you seem to be a person in much more need of anonymous approval. I simply want to improve and enjoy the game of Kaw.

    How about trying this for a change? Instead of making personal attacks on people, try looking at the actual topic of the thread. Do you have anything substantial to add to this discusssion about the LB rankings and Metallicana's build? If not, see you later on another thread. ; :mrgreen:
     
  16. I always like Phil's tread. Unlike many, he/she "tried" to be neutral in most of his posts while speaking his piece of mind and opinions. Im not around in forum for much but so far I hav not seen him/her calling ppl names or putting ppl down so he/she looks Gd like many of the forum regulars.

    Tat aside, maybe the reason why dev did not fix the lb ranks is because having more lb categories allow players something more to work towards to? (In another word, more ways and reasons to spend)

    Not all can swipe their way to ally lb. but being the cutest, most good looking (in rl) or popular player in Kaw might get yr nick up the value lb so 90% of Kaw player knows yr name? And I believe u spend much less cash/ time to be in battle won or reset lb compared to ally lb.

    Some may hav the thinking tat "if I can't drive the fastest Ferrari I'll work towards having the most powerful EVO?" Idk. Maybe tats y dev allows the current lb sys to stay on
     
  17. If your only weapon against me is a thread made to troll the entire forums (which worked unless u missed the 271748 other threads to stop me) I'd say I'm doing a fantastic job. Your directly kaw related threads are all thing regarding wars which u never fight yourself cuz when trouble comes you drop your attack build and hide behind pure spy. And now this pissing and moaning about the leaderboard  the devs are unfair with the leaderboard mechanics  I sense a great deal of fear within you young failosopher...
