  • Dumb question...

    On my profile, there are numbers for "A: D: M: HP:" I assume this is my unit rating a la CivII. But the numbers keep changing... what makes them change? How are they related?

    I looked in the FAQ, and if it's there, it's well hidden.

        I think MarkG needs a script that looks for people posting questions about these stats and then automatically posts a link to that thread.

          Isn't it in the FAQ?

            I don't think it is actually.

              Nah, the +1 effect will ensure they always get a reply.

              Something I just thought of though, it would probably be a good idea if the Posts Stats: title in a user's profile was a link to a decent explanation.

              Having this info in the faq would make linking to the faq much easier too.

                Very good idea indeed

                  I wonder when Mark is going to make something more of the stats?

                    It might be useful for you to repeat that suggestion, for those of us with bad memories.

                          higher numbers = more spam

                            higher numbers = more meaningful contribution to the Apolyton community.

                              Curiously, you are probably both right.
