Re: GR's Map Tour II "Continental" [FULL] Round 7/7

Well, I think it's cool. It's how I usually play it on a real board. Thought I'd never see it here!

Re: Jumbo Hex Map *V2*

Like Pickalock said back on page 4, it reminds me of BattleTech, which is why I like it. In fact, I would probably only play on this map if the theme were giant mechs battling it out! Maybe call it something like Mech War and have mech drawings here and there?

Re: GR's Map Tour II "Continental" [33/42 or 56] starts July 18

I do have a question (this will be my first tourney ever): How do you determine "the bottom two players"? Are these the first two to be eliminated?

Re: USA Map Pack [Beta]

Having lived in and visited most of these regions, I'm excited about having all these maps on Conquer Club.

Having said that, I never liked the look of the USA map, and I really wish these looked more like actual maps. I'm a map guy, and that's one of the reasons I enjoy Conquer Club so much. But ...

Re: Win percentages figured into score?

I only have a 27% win record because I play 6 player games against good opponents - are you saying my rank or score should go down !

I think ideally any percentage above 0 should help rather than hurt a player. The higher your win percentage, the better your score. If yours were 30% rather than ...

Obviously "as probable."

You can't win more games than possible. The post explains everything.

Re: Win percentages figured into score?



This gives us a percentage that shows how far one of us is above or below the normal. For example, a 100% would mean that you win as many games as probable. 200% would mean that you win twice as many games as probable.

...

This means that I win 6% more games than probable.



"As probable" or ...

Re: Win percentages figured into score?



What is better? A 70% for a 1v1 player, or a 40% for an 8-FFA player? You aren't comparing apples to apples.

Come to think of it, my losing streak did start when I decided to play more games with multiple players so that I wasn't spending so much time playing instead of working. I was a lot ...

I was a colonel... I think 5 days ago. Now I am a captain. Why? Because I played a bunch of doodle assassins. I should not be able to keep my rank if I do that because of my 38% win rate on other maps.


Well, I disagree, but if the majority of players are happy with it, then fine.

Your rank is to the left of your username on the scoreboard and consists of between one and five numbers depending on what your score is. That pretty symbol next to your name is just something flashy to let others know roughly how many points you have.

Ouch, what a losing streak! Don't take this post too seriously, now, because I'm just thinking out loud.

I was a corporal-first-class at one point, some time last year, before I got married. I took a year off Conquer Club, since I was partly afraid that it had cost me my job. You know, when you ...
