I think half the battle with VU is understanding Zeta's scoring system.

For once I agree with you

Nr.5 has more in every catagorie then nr. 4 

Bogdan F: 55%  Turnip F: 48%

Which I don't get, I didn't think Bogdan had that many cities on Fant

For all the whinning people did at the start of the era about orcs, I'm seeing plenty of high ranking orcs.

Ignis dropped a Market city on Fant, so he has property just below 1% hence the not showing... so all the kills and captures on the lower worlds are being counted. 

I don't get #4 and #5 because I seriously didn't think Bogdan had enough Fant real estate to be higher then Turnip.. has to be gold I think

This... just... makes... NO SENSE o.O

I think the list is wrong...

Edit: Obviously :D

Troops are higher for DVS and so is Fant %, is this the same or the reverse for Bogdan/Turnip? <yes I have forgotten that fast>

OK, everyone fess up.. how much gold were you all hoarding :D

LOL!! <do you think that would work? I might consider it :p>

btw, why is this thread in politics... shouldn't it be in

Serious discussions about VU and other stuff.

Desire, it could be the gold. But then Turnip got screwed by a bug and still deserves to be #3. Not that it matters much, we all know he should be there.

:o lew is missing 5% of herself!

Yeah wtf is bling doing so high up there????? That's unfair :'(

@ Bran: It's the stacked up recources that make up the rest of those percentages.

For those %s not adding to 100% i reckon its just that the % on worlds rated as 0% were less than 0.5% (thus roundd down)...altho Mr.Famouse having 1% over all is baffling.

As for people like trendkill ranking so low, i reckin that you had minimal score on fant compared to those with barely anything.

As for those up at the top at similar in all stats, you must remember those are just troop numbers, look at turnip. 6.6mil troops.

I highly doubt those are higher tier troops, Turnip care to post what those troops were? Im pretty sure that it is mostly low level *beep* which zeta obvz isnt rating so highly any more. But i could be wrong

The reason it doesn't add to 100% is because part of the score is a global scoring, like sciences and gold in inventory, might be something like army experience etc etc.

So it should be based on battles won and troops killed ...

So euhm ... :)

It sort of looks like that if you die ( 0 land ) and don't restart...
that you'll score higher then if you do restart (which resets your stats)
or at least retain whatever stats you had ... which may place you higher then if you restarted

it seems he keeps changing it too heavily, before it was too much points for farming, now its too much points for fighting battles. can we just have a nice balance?

Bran, I'm not sure that is what is happening. I didn't farm and I didn't fight a lot of battles.

I looked at my own score, and I was playing KD Mage until RVL *almost* made me restart.  Then I went into Stay Alive mode.

<YAY for the KD mates who saved my butt when all I had were MUs - and for the Vices in Fate who brokered some breathing space>

I maybe had 1 MIL gold when the era ended, some troops and some of my cities.

I think I have Elsin to thank for part of my killcount, his horde lead bounced the 500K merge I was leading from Starta back into Fant and gave me some kills with that. My count from ROF was low, was more of a freeze gal then anything :) Not sure but maybe I got some from being in the merges? (was that implemented?) I think I also have to thank Bogdan and Brashen for giving me the PITA opportunities of reclaiming Fate cities (my own and my KD mates).   Plus, my UBER scout killing efforts (RAWR fear me scouts no spawning while I'm around RAWR)...  ^_^

Anyhow.. I'm still trying to figure out the scoring

so far I have
city or troops on Fant places you higher
negative gold will screw you 
if you die and restart you may place lower then just dying

22:39:35 May 22nd 09 Here is an idea, he tilted the score system heavy in favor of attacking.  Score i bet is based on Total troops and total kills, number of battles it took to get those kills...   sci and other stuff also count, but is probably linear.  Who knows what weird algorithm zeta used for warring scores...

its not true as people above me have less wins... less kills...less battles...less cities taken...less sciences....less land.... and are on worlds just one above me and still got higher :S:S

well as they have 0 troops and 0 cities they cant really battle can they ?

that just means they got killed, which means they could of fought a long time and been wiped out, but not restarted, thus preserving their score till era end.
