Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

I also noticed that TGA is climbing higher on the leaderboard. We may soon be neighbors there with our FARKian brethren.

Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

The leader board ranking is because personal strength is increasing at a rate higher than our intake of new members. As the time between invites gets longer and longer the people in the alliance already have more time to build up their strength. Though I'm curious as to why we still have people under the alliance mean score. Perhaps they need a 'care package' of some sort to keep growing.

Yeah, a lot of it is just a lag time. The meat of the game only moves so fast and we have had a bunch of folks join later than others Additionally, we have some members that are very high on the score board, so as our base moves up in score, the average continues to shift above them, albeit at a slower and slower pace.

Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

Also, some of us are starting VERY far from the power base, and need to make some kind of move to the hub. That takes time.

Re: The Fark/TGA Military 1-2 punch

I just wish we had a higher average score. We are only in the top 500 or so for average score. The average is more of true representation of our strength. As others posted though, some guys started late and other wanted to move closer to our base area. We probably have on of the largest organized groups. I don't doubt that we will move to the highest rankings once everyone gets moving.
