If you'll indulge an unrelated-to-MW:O meme for some "True Story" time:



I took up barefoot running a couple years ago, but because I like to run trails - and because I live in an Urban Sprawl with more Zip Codes than Police Officers - I use the Vibrams. I've gotten so used to the stride that when I have to wear fancier shoes for certain gigs I tend to drag the heels around and they catch on ... everything. Most of my other shoes tend to be flatter and can mimic the stride better, but when I gotta look "corporate" even the smallest heel on a men's dress shoe can trip me up.

Jeebus. When in the world did I completely forget how to use plurals properly?

By the way. These stats in the spider are mostly PuG, my Merc Corp people aren't online. Whereas my 3A stats were half Merc Corp half PuG. Also, if you check the decimal places. the Spider's KDR is about 9.44 rounded down. The Commando's KDR is about 9.36 rounded up. It looks the same, but actually the Spider's KDR is HIGHER than the 3A in spite of having lesser firepower.

Also, something's strange. If you average out the WLR, it's about 1.3 to 1.4 ish, weighted. This seems to be a sign that ELO is not actually working as intended - otherwise, it should be exactly 1. I shouldn't be winning more games than I lose... unless the matchmaker isn't working properly.

Now failures in balance cause matches to become like scissors-paper-stone, but it won't change match outcomes in the long run - that's ELO/Matchmaking's job.

I can only think of 2 reasons for this failure of ELO to reduce my WLR to 1.

1. I'm already at the top of ELO, so there's nowhere higher to go. Therefore I'm matched against people of lower skill, and therefore win much more often than I lose. (Skeptical of this, there are quite a few good pilots out there.)
2. All light mechs are overpowered, and by piloting almost exclusively lights, I bias every single match I'm in towards a win by guaranteeing the team a light mech. Given how the SDR-5K with its impressive firepower of 10 can pull games with 3 kills and 350+ damage... it's probably this.

Probably not, but it's flattering to think it is.

so agree with this.


sometime ago when clubs had made a montypython meme MustrumRidcully asked why not a dead parrot sketch. after i saw this i made a promise...

GalaxyBluestar, on 27 February 2013 - 11:41 PM, said:

so here it is, in celebration of 300 pages a montypython sketch. hours of work and a toungue in cheeck approach to MWO in general. warning anything mentioned there in this enourmus meme is purely coincidental cause i love this game and understand the sillyness the devs the mods and all of us cause for eachother. it's not meant to put anyone down in any fashion and is all in the name of fun. enjoy!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
MONTY PYTHON SKETCH IN FULL HERE
