Type_93 Posted November 14 Posted November 14 (edited) Admins here are awesome, Even if you guys have to slap my hands sometimes. but I did run 10 ranked matches just to prove a point I no longer needed to prove I guess, but here are the results as promised. If I let my passion override my common sense today, I apologize, but some players can sure strike a nerve. Edited November 14 by Type_93 5 2 2 2

BlueMax1916 Posted November 14 Posted November 14 O.k. looks good, but what happened to the other thread? Can't find it. Renamed to 'Ranked vs. Randoms' or what? 1

desmo_2 Posted November 14 Posted November 14 Aww, reading other peoples' meltdowns sometimes makes me feel better about myself. Now what am I going to do? 5

Personally, I was hoping the relevant stuff discussing the La Pampa could be salvaged. But, later, I clicked on some notifications which pointed to that topic, and I learned that the topic had been "derezzed" (to borrow a term from the Tron movie franchise). https://tron.fandom.com/wiki/Derez

Unlooky Posted November 14 Posted November 14 It was absolutely hilarious but it seems like the perpetrator's account has been nuked.

A little bit of this, without the "hot chick". 😉 Essentially an enthusiastic discussion of the merits and/or validity of various player statistics as worthwhile metrics for measuring a ship's performance parameters. Also, discussion of win-rate being an individual player statistic versus being a team statistic (wherein the team is randomly variable, in randoms or ranked, or more carefully selected as in clan battles). It all started innocently enough, as a topic ostensibly about the La Pampa. Things happened, though. 😉 3 1

I thought we just settled that player statistics are mere indicators and NOT.... reliable metrics regarding individual skill level ..... Let alone individual ship characteristics....

I like the way you phrased that. 🙂👍

Well ....... maybe not all people can handle a challenge to their worldview. That being said, facts tend to be pesky things, either they are or they aren't. Still ...... it is good to remember that we all are humans. 2
