I mean when considering balance surely faction/settings/map are all counted as apposed to just skill. I mean sure, IC should beat TF on high/high settings on say IO, but aside from the faction penalties, if you have a superior team to make up the difference, wouldn't it bring it to a stalemate until something tipped the scales?

GT should have advanced tech when Bios maybe gets their enh tech if teams are equal

Balance != homogenization. Without removing human pilots completely you cannot reduce any game to a formula.

Yes but if Bios can successfully defend to its advanced tech you are generally screwed even if you have advanced tech. Even when IC has an outpost in the Bios home... right spidey? /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

edit - Well, I guess you could say your team dropped the ball on that one seeing as they let an exp con launch and rip out right under their noses.

Hijack complete.

Back on track now...

I think our brilliant Admins should give us all a call sign reset for starters.

Nobody starts April Fool's jokes a week ahead of time. So, we need our reparations in the form of a call sign reset.

I don't think its a formula just common sense.

p.s. Statistical Anomalies happen to us all McW!

What if this post is somehow part of the prank?

It's ironic how nobody noticed a conspiracy when it was actually happening.

Oh well MrC, time to get back to the drawing board.

I have a sneaking suspicion now, that the "prank" was actually part of a bigger plot to make us let our guard down, for what will be the biggest, and bestest April Fools Day prank to have ever existed EVER! /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> (or do i?)
