I'd love to have a subjective formula to rate wars, here is my crack based on various rolling ranking systems in world sport.


---------------

Each war, there are 100 points up for grabs.
Your war rating is a divisor of all your points and the number of wars you have been involved in, in the past calendar year.

Points are awarded as follows -

Win: +100 points
Loss: -100 points

Modifiers:

First Strike: -20 points

More Members: -(% of difference)
Less Members: +(% of difference)

Defeating a higher ranked opponent (1v1 only): +20 pts

Multiple alliances: Get the amount of points as a percentage of member contribution of that side.

Example:

SoF vs Collab/Monsters/Evo (ECM)

WIN: ECM +100
LOSS: SOF -100
FIRST STRIKE: ECM -20
MORE MEMBERS: ECM -25
LESS MEMBERS: SOF +25

RESULT:
SOF: -75 pts
Coaliton ECM: +55 pts

Evo (44%): 24.2
Sanct (34%): 18.7
MONSTERS (22%): 12.1

Final Earth War Rankings:

Evo: 24.2 pts
Sanct: 18.7 pts
MONSTERS: 12.1 pts
SOF: -75 pts

I like where you are going, but you are double counting with the scoring. Guess it doesn't much matter.

I'd also not include an FS score for this war.

a known start date, and the option for either side to FS or not really negates any possible inherent advantage that a FS normally has

the whole point of waqr is getting killed, so that should be worth more!!!!

Too simplified.

How can you declare a victor sometimes thats debatable.

PS. ECM did not have the FS>

im not usually a flaming trolling b4stard but that is just horrible. the best way to gauge a war is just with the detailed warstats that KJ was posting.

also swuch a difference for win or loss removes any other stat from being valid

yada yada yada

The idea is certainly good, maybe could use some tweaking to account more for the opponent. SOF shouldn't be able to finish 100 points behind one of the three tags they fought against for a single war, especially a tough, close one like that.

hmm

if neither side has warred before in the set then side with the greater TNW at the end is the winner :P
Otherwise the side with the greatest percentage TNW drop maybe:P
dunno.
