Is there any way to find where an individual unit (outside of the top 5) stacks up?

<S>

[Dawnstealer]

Curious about this, myself - the 5th RCT is relatively small, but I think our pilots played well.

[DaisuSaikoro Nagasawa]

Do they do anything to balance for unit size?

I assume not, but it'd be nice if the little (or medium) teams could be scaled just to see where they are.

[Odins Fist]

I have no idea if they have that info somewhere.

I was literally the only person from my unit that participated.
Would be nice t see a GRAPH and timeline from the event.

I believe that if you login and go to the tournament page (http://mwomercs.com/tournaments) you can see your units ranking even if its not top 5.

My understanding of the event rules were; you win a game your unit and your faction earn 1 point (the event rules didn't mention getting 80 points as a requirement for this). So yeah. By a sort of natural by product, the larger units dominated the leader board (larger factions too). More players = more organized drops = more opportunities to win.

There was someone (a few people) in our unit who saw our ranking but I've yet to see it.

*blink*

Loose talk said they were going to list the exact number of wins and points individual units had accrued last Monday, but I've yet to see anything.

In my unit, no one but my brother was able to see the unit score. Seems to be pretty bugged.
We scored 24th in Jade falcon even if only two of us were playing the event. Seems there were not many JF units at all.

[Lord0fHats]

There aren't that many large Clan units (honestly, there aren't that many large Loyalist units period). Most of the biggest and strongest units in the game are Merc.

[Lily from animove]

if you are lucky, and not one of the broken people, yes, otherswise no

[Peiper]

I am curious as well. I would also like to know how they scored each team.
I would also be curious about things like average match score for each unit.
I'd like to know how big an impact smaller units made vs. the larger units, and what the numbers were like, even if the numbers were as simple as the total number of players per unit who dropped even once during the event.

[Lily from animove]

One can twitter russ and ask if they still can make a list in a bid document of all units and their ranks.

My unit is medium sized but had a large expansion leading up to CW. (went from 60 to 80+ members) which allowed us to field continuous 12 mans over the course of the day but my guys were fresh and we had a lot of bonding to do before the big day. I was told we performed pretty well but I'm really curious to see. I know JFP is very big, and KELL has a small unit but they train together almost nightly so ... I am very curious.

CJF is a very small space. If you haven't gotten on to the communal servers I recommend it. DSx, KELL, JFP have been rocking CJF since CW was introduced.

I hope they do figure out the mercs verses the loyalists issue, btw. Clanners don't hire mercs.

It just seems silly to have them circulating as freely as they can. I know a unit that seems to flip flop weekly. I don't understand the point.

[Hayashi]

Not everyone can see the score, it's kinda bugged. It's not balanced for unit size though. The score is determined purely by total victories across all the pilots.

Again, clanners don't hire mercs. What merc groups hiding as clanners do is on them but clanners do not hire mercs.

In lore, no. In MWO...

[hybrid black]

Who cares about 20 year old **** lore, you have a chance to rewrite the lore to something better. We did that last night when thr clans won with the help from Mercs.

[DaisuSaikoro Nagasawa]

Eh, not what this thread is about.

Still unnecessary and unneeded. Rather mercs be in their own pile. Maybe next time they'll let loyalist go at it and mercs can fight their own skirmish. That'd be interesting. Might offset some of the population differences during events like this.

[DaisuSaikoro Nagasawa]

It really is bugged. Someone from the unit posted a screen shot. Grrrr. Wish I could've seen this earlier as it might've convinced our guys to push harder.

Oh well, life.
