Time to invest in one of those fancy Texas Instruments graphic calculators.

Squishy.. it starts now.. as of 16:10... or as of 15:51....

Have the top guns been notified as to were they sit in order, or will it be left to the user base, who may think they are in that bracket to decide what math they will be doing?

cool, i actually like the system, i wasnt a fan of it at first, or the removal of wack back death, however i like the "what if" factor about it. I like it because someone could hazard a gues at thinking they were in the top 10 and do the math wrong, and visa versa.

650 kills or 650 wack stat total (including their bg totals)?

Just some clarification.

When you state 650-1,000.

If you're at kill 649... kill an MIA... that takes you to kill 650, right?

It's kill 651 that would then be 650.70 (or whatever rank you are).

So what happens if say, someone reached 1000 wack stat? Would the stat then be completely maxed out and unable to train anymore? Or would the tapering system continue beyond that?

Yeah ignore that. Phil has kindly pointed out to me that it has been covered. I tend to skim read at times.

O.o yeh lol excuse the slowness

All i have to say is that calculating gun score for the top guys is gonna be hell now. I hope we can impliment an effective and risk involving replacement for wack back death. 

How are shots on rogue handled?

What happens if you are the #11 on the list with 750 kills because the top 10 guns are all above 751 kills. A war breaks out, numbers 1-5 die. #11 is now number 6. 

Does the new #6's (former #11) kills start to add on the degrade past his already 750 kills or do his 100 kills past 650 switch to the degrade? 

Also, 

If numbers 10 and 11 are close and continually battling each other for the #10 spot (switching back and forth) in theary they do not know if they are receiving .95 per kill or 1. 

In that reguard how is the user able to effectivly average their gun? Is the idea that they are not able to effectivly count their gun, or just to tapper off the growing of the gun? 

Let me be clear that I am happy something has been put into place while the PC's come up with a solution. I am simply asking questions, I do not mean to take offense. 

I think all the information is already there for you to interpret, Agamemnon.

I'm fairly sure the new #6 has his NEW kills calculated based on his current position in the list. It's the same for all guns, you get the full benefit until you're suddenly within the top ten. If you were to drop outside the top ten, your kills would count as a +1 again until you break into the tapering tier.

I presume #10 and #11 will never be told where they are in the list so they have to make an educated guess somehow. Although I'm against it, I like the idea of people not knowing exactly where their gun sits and how effective it is. It adds a little more mystery to the game, which can only be good.
