We're going to watch the results and then possibly change the level descriptions, but the numbers are fine.
The new numbers reflect all opponents played not just the kills now.

He has the second lowest that I've seen so far.

Also worth pointing out that this stat isn't conclusive in terms of pointing someone out as a noob hunter. As people have said it's impossible for the number 1 player to play people with a higher score than them, so they're always going to have a poor rating.

If you want to use this stat to determine noob hunters, you should look at how poor their kill rank is relative to their points score (over time). A rating of .65 might not be bad for someone who's been consistently around the 5000 point mark, but it probably is for somebody who's been around 2000.

This post is spot on, obviously ones gearing will get progressively lower as their overall score increases. Consequently to get an accurate picture you have to compare those with similar ranks, a rating of 5 for a 3000 point player is fine if all generals are approx the same but not if they tend to average 7 or 8.

PS Can somebody work mine out 8-)

This is a long thread, and the supposed meaning behind these manufactured numbers is not detailed in the OP.

Can someone please explain what these numbers are supposed to represent?

How were they developed? Did someone just make them up? May as well, since these important details are conspicuous by their absence from the OP. If anyone actually has any answers to offer, it might be a good idea to edit the OP to include this information.

If not, then the numbers are worthless, actually.

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Relative Rank Calculation

This is the average relative rank of all opponents played.
If you play opponents exactly the same rank as yours all the time then Relative Rank = 1.000.

Example: Your score at the end of a game is 3000.
Everyone else has a score of 1500. So the average rank of your opponent is 1500.
Average relative rank = 1500 / 3000 = 0.5

Note that the score is calculated based on your score at each game end time, not your current score.


I see. So, basically, anyone with a higher score than his opponents will rank below 1, while those with lower scores will rank above 1.

I can deal with that.

Whump was a cook/cadet for so long, playing a noob improved his score. Now that he is more proficient, it is interesting to note that on Circus Maximus, Whump has a .783 relative rank, and KLOBBER has a .513 Circus Maximus relative rank.

I have an overall .996 relative rank, which is kinda depressing that after 1500+ games, I am getting better only at a glacier-esque pace.

All that number translates to is that my ACTUAL rank is higher than the average rank of my opponents.

All having above 1 translates to is that your actual rank is lower than that of the average of your opponents.

These numbers are pretty much meaningless, with no relation to actual game skill.
