As i was sitting bored at my computer... i decided to count up how many victories i had.. currently, i am sitting with 55 victories and a 35% winning percentage....i was wondering how that adds up to other people...i know the 55 victories may be hard to reach for some without premium memberships.. but im intrigued about the % none the less..

... Of course winning a high percentage of your games means you're probably a very good player, but I know some players who are very good indeed, but are yet Privates.
... It seems it is less a matter of how many you win, as it is WHO you beat. . . . At least that's how I feel. Should I beat a few Question mark newbies and a couple Privates, sure I feel good about it, but if I beat somebody like Plowable Earth (hasn't happened yet), ZawBanjito, Scarus or YP_Legend, I feel like the god, Hachiman! (god of war).

Oh, shit, there is another loss coming. Its the USA map... it never leave me win a standard game on it. Maps I never won a standard: USA and Canada (cursed saxons!!). Well, and Crossword, that isnt a map to me (I never played it).
Do you have any maps that hate you?

I figure if I lose to you enough times your ranking will increase to the point where it won't matter so much. Everything I do, it's like smoke and mirrors!! Two sides!! You never know where I'm coming from!! Deep strategy, baby. Not game by game, all long term. Yeah.

14 wins out of 29 finished games: 48%
You gotta remember that the amount of people you play also drastically affects your win rate, if an average player can expect to win 1/3 of the time in 3 player games, they can only expect to win 1/6 of the time in 6 player games. Similarly an even higher win rate is expected if you play doubles or triples a lot. A more accurate reflection would be a win rate weighted against this consideration.
As such the points system is reasonably fair, especially the way it takes account of who you beat... the one thing that annoyed me about it is that the order of your wins and losses matters (Assuming you're not dealing in a case where you have a 100% win/loss rate). It's better points wise to lose and then win than it is to do it the other way around. Sure it's only one or two points, but... it bugs me for some reason.
Also the Asia map hates me, I like it a lot, but out of my 15 losses I think about 5 are from it, I just couldn't stop playing it until I finally beat it.

You cant beat the map, you need beat the players!!
Ok:
Standard Games: 10 wins in 27 games (37%). Im always playing with 5 or 6 players. I played 3 players 4 times, and lose all
Doubles: 17 wins in 26 games (65,4%).
Triples: 4 wins in 5 games (80%

)
Total: 31 wins in 58 games (53,4%)
Well, Im going to win my first standard on Canada. You all can support me, the # is 13495. I got another chance in USA map (# 15928). Hope this time I can win.

Yeah, but after losing 6 times (I checked) it sure felt that way.
So far I've yet to win on crossword and brazil, with one try on each.
I'll do my stats some other time...

21 of 39 games won, roughly a 54% win rate.
I don't think any maps hate me..but I hate the USA map. It just annoys me.

A pathetic 26% in about 100 games. I'm way too spiteful to have success at this game.

after looking at the poll, Red is overwhelming any other color. This is probably because Red is the one who created the game. They probably created a game that they are best at giving Red the best chance of winning.

3 out of 25 games.

A meager 12%. Soon to be even less than that also
Pretty sure I need a RISK tutor.
