How do I get in touch with a MOD?
Last time I sent an email, I never got a response. Maybe the response ended up in junkmail, and maybe I wrote to the wrong address.

Variants and Ghost Ranking
Any correlation?
hellalt (70 D)
25 Feb 10 UTC
interesting question indeed
Alderian (2425 D(S))
25 Feb 10 UTC
As in, do the Ghost Ratings get calculated only from the Classic games and not the variant games? Or are you questioning a different aspect?
flashman (2274 D(G))
25 Feb 10 UTC
A question I have raised numerous times in games... and in threads advertising World games. I think that until a definitive answer is provided there will continue to be a small group of point farmers who are terrified of the prospect of a top-rated World game totally ruining their GR profile.

For those who care about GRs, drawing China on the current map has to be the nightmare scenario...
I don't think there's any reason why variants should be affecting ghost rating if they are.

I avoid variants for a whole different reason: the huge map results in many mini-games of diplomacy and once those are done the games are a droll.

i dunno.

for me the jury's still out on variants. but like... i think they're fun so i play em lol

for that, i've probably hit my peak ghost rating last month never to be seen again, but who cares right?
flashman (2274 D(G))
25 Feb 10 UTC
I care not, for sure, but I do think a World game with 17 top players would attract an enormous boost in GR points to an outright winner. Hence my comments above and my experience trying to get a few suspects into such games.
jimgov (219 D(B))
25 Feb 10 UTC
Maybe I didn't phrase the question properly. Does variant play have an effect, for good or bad, on your ghost ranking? This should be a simple question, I would think.
flashman (2274 D(G))
25 Feb 10 UTC
The maths is different when there are more or less than seven players in a game...

The Ancient Med has only five players, so a win should be worth less;

the World variant has seventeen! It should therefore be worth a lot more than the standard game.
Alderian (2425 D(S))
25 Feb 10 UTC
jimgov, the answer depends on whether Ghost is filtering out the variants. Unless he responds, I don't know that you'll get an accurate answer. You could look at this webpage though and look under ghost rankings to see if it says there.

Thanks, Alderian.

I have been doing nothing so far, but will be doing different weightings, so the variance from a map variant will only be comparatively slight (that is to say that both the harm and the benefit are small).

So far no variants other than press variants and honour-rules have occurred. I have treated them all the same.
figlesquidge (2131 D)

So, they will have an effect, just not as noticable as playing a regular game?

Build a fleet in Memphis? O_o
So apparently in the Mediterranean variant, you can in fact build fleets in Memphis. Is this to simulate the ability to sail naval forces into the River Nile or is it an error? Will it result in disaster if I make the build there?
