been looking and i haven't seen any posts mentioning anything about it. What happened?

Did it actualy work out?
Did clan mechs get roflstomped every time?
did IS get stomped every time?

some details would be nice please.

PGI does not share data, now or ever. They share anecdotal experiences only if it makes them look good.

We will have to wait to see what's in CW once we get CW.

Wish I could be more help.

NGNG guys ran some of the 10v12 so perhaps they would share their experience. Unfortunately, PGI now has ngng as employees, so doubt they can share either. But, maybe some of the people playing will pop in and share.

Data was inconclusive.

in other words it didn't paint a picture they wanted?

i dont even care about exact data, heck something like their 90% rate thing would be something

Still very early Monday morning on PGI's time. They did release a statement from the unannounced 12v10 public test a few weeks ago so I do expect some mention of the event from this past weekend.

[Malcolm Vordermark]

Some of the matches are up on NGNG's youtube and twitch channels. I haven't seen any report on the overall results.

[Tezcatli]

The leaderboard showed that IS lights were scoring higher. But Edmeister was playing, so clearly, we need to nerf Ed.

Here is the result of the previous Clan vs IS test which occured August 5th https://twitter.com/...589495349657601
The previous one was an unannounced, public-queue, no groups, IS vs clan, and it went 90% in the favour of the Clans. The tweet was made 2 days after the end of that test, so even if info is not made available early in the morningpacific time) on the first business day following the test does not mean info is not forthcoming.

NGNG stated that no data was being collected. it was just ngng doing a IS vs Clans.

the one Redshift2k5 linked above is the one PGI did at the beginning of the month.

Russ will probably tweet about it soon. Wait until then. Personally, I think I already know the answer.

Not even. It was mainly 22 people dropping couple times for a free mechbay.

There was supposed to be swapping of IS to Clan teams...but that rarely happened. Sup-obtimal and even full on joke mechs were brought, including STD engine non-Flame Dragons.


I played in 6 matches, and it was a 3/3 split. Though, not very good testing at all.

I think they are contractors, not employees.

[wwiiogre]

Having an employee contract or even subcontract makes them in effect employees. Including Non Disclosure Agreements or the fact they can be released or fired for cause for not doing what PGI wants.

So contractor/employee is semantics. It means they cannot share if PGI does not want them to, without a consequence.

Well, I watched the NGNG videos.

Of the 6 they posted on Youtube, one of them didn't include the final score. Of the rest?

Clans win 10 alive
Clans win 10 alive
Clans win 8 alive
Clans win 5 alive
IS wins 10 alive

even if they were gonna share the data, it's still going on. So any telemetry info would be partial at best. Let's let ift end, then check?

[Bishop Steiner]

Also, even if it had ended at midnight last night...... it's 10:30 am PST, a little earlier to have crunched the numbers.

Sheesh. Instant gratification generation.
