That was a good duel tourny last night, we had a good turn out. Congrats to Cord for winning.

 

Side note: Was wondering if it was possible if there could be a count of how many rds a player plays throughout the dt. Like in a 5-4 duel with 3 ties thats 12 rds, plus a 5-2 with no ties being 7 rds, add them together ya got 19 rds. Ya get my drift and at the end of the dt we count up everyones rds and list em out. I thought it made a difference somewhat, albeit Cord probably woulda beat me anyways, but I did battle 33rds whereas Cord only did 15-20 maybe, although it wasnt his fault that his opponents quit on him.

It depends on what time zone you have the boards set on.

 

My post was posted 11 hours after his.

 

EDIT: WÄTÄFÄK!

12 is obviously more than 2, which means that my post was posted before his.

explanation:

Jul 31 2006, 12:51 PM -> 12:51

 

Jul 31 2006, 11:22 PM -> 23:22

 

this is why the 12-hours system is completly illogical

 

couldnt we set our display settings to 24-hours before?

I knew that....12:51p is in the afternoon and 11:somethinp is that night. Wow....blonde moment. So anyhows getting back to what this topic was about kinda. DT results and wondering if the amount of rounds a player plays can be added in there in future DTs
Posted

compiling all-time DT stats of players would be interesting

not only fights won and loss

but how many individual rounds were won, lost, or tied

 

interesting stats could come out of that as the average kills per loss (av. number of kills you got when you lose to someone 5-#) or avg deaths per win (i.e. someone who has 0 deaths per win would really OWN everyone 5-0... but someone with 4 deaths per wins would mean he still had trouble with his opponents)

If you use the duel bot, all the results are held in a .txt. You could just change the file name before you start, turn it on, and upload the file to the forums. smile.gif

Or use a !rank command with the bot and possibly a !top10 to see the top 10 players.

 

Come to think about it, it would good a good idea to have the stats on form or 17thparallel.com that updates itself or something. The BOT>s always mess up or go offline.

 

 

There should also be a ranking system in a load of other events and even in pub.

I'd wanna keep playing to be number 1, might have a similar effect on other people.

Indeed a ranking system would be great. Ive noticed from DSB how stat-aholic they are. And my underlying point there is, dont hesitate to use ideas that other zones are using, such as simple little things they have, ie: DSBs 15min pub ranking. And I didnt really play any other zones while 17th went on hiatus but ya get the point.

 

Other than that, Im with Inco about wanting to play to be numba 1 if there was a ranking.

Yes, it seems zone managements (not just in 17th) don't understand the important role that a ranking system would play.

2 very good points, and 2 reasons why i am considering doing this myself. basically, to ensure accurate stats, id personally update the stats and probably make the updated stats files available for download, and probably make a page of 17thparallel.com devoted to displaying the top 10 or so. got a lot of ideas floating around in my head, and its just a matter of when and how.. bleh

A MS Access database could generate top10's on a webpage automatically ; and it's easy to add data to it

Just had an idea. Howa bout we host more than just one event each week. Say we host DT every Sunday, and on a Wednesday or whatever day we host Rumble. On Friday we host sblball. We should seriously get somethin like that going. Instead of waiting a week for something, we can have some event hosted each day of the week or maybe 3-4 days outa the week. And keep DT every Sunday, we can have that set up as the regular event that wont change, same time same place every week, duel tourny. And the other events can either be cycled around or randomly hosted.

 

Say have Tuesday or whatever day as mystery event day, an event is randomly hosted. Then Thursdays can switch between rumble, sblball (or any other event).

 

Give some feedback.

we do intend to add more weekly events once we get rolling. but that means we gotta have ppl coming to them and participating.. its kind of pointless to have 30 ppl in the zone but only 8 come to play
Posted

hosting them every day would get people bored of them fast and it would not be "special" events anymore, so people would not care to participate in them that much...

2 or 3 per week would be enough
