Tide of War

[Clausewitz]

I will attempt to update this daily. For those of you unfamiliar, here is a world map, DIGG in blue, Allies in red. Ignore the strategic overlay...


I still need to come up with an aesthetically-pleasing format for the following info, but here it is raw:
November 21st, 2007
Ocean-by-ocean island gains
o1 = No colonizations
o2 = No colonizations
o3 = No colonizations
o4 = 3 DIGG (net -3)
o5 = 2 DIGG (net -2)
o6 = 2 E||M (net +2)
o7 = 1 DIGG, 2 E||M (net +1)
o11 = No colonizations
o12 = 1 MT, 4 Pantheon (net +5)
o13 = 1 DIGG (net -1)
o14 = 1 DIGG (net -1)
o15 = 1 MT (net +1)
o16 = 2 DIGG, 1 Pantheon, 2 Valheru, 1 E||M (net +2)
o21 = 4 Pantheon, 2 Valheru (net +6)
o22 = No colonizations
o23 = 2 DIGG (net -2)
o24 = 3 DIGG (net -3)
o25 = 3 DIGG (net -3)
o31 = No colonizations
o32 = 2 DIGG (net -2)
o33 = No colonizations
o34 = 1 DIGG (net -1)
o41 = 1 DIGG (-1 net)
o42 = No colonization
o43 = 1 DIGG (-1 net)
o51 = 1 DIGG, 1 MT
o52 = 1 DIGG, 1 Valheru (net 0) (net 0)

Alliance Offensive Performance
DIGG = +25 islands
Allies = +22 islands
Morkin +3
Pantheon +9
Valheru +5
E||M +5

Most Active Oceans (aka, "frontlines")
o16 - 6 island changes
o21 - 6 island changes
o12 - 5 island changes


If an Admin can sticky this, I will continue to maintain it daily as best I can.

Ocean 5 should have at least 6 changes... they took all of digital's isles, bar one of course.

You can also get idea of the powerflux including razed isles using this tool:

action=Changes_html&Tag_or_Player=A_370&Item=Score&Date1=689&Date2=690

Yes, but this was data from 21 Nov only. I have not yet found a good tool to get isle changes for historical dates

EDIT: Just took a look at Shen's feature. Still need to spend some time to get a grasp of it, but it looks like it might be solid for such historical changes.

o16 - 2 DIGG
o24 - 1 DIGG
o25 - 2 DIGG, 1 Pantheon
o32 - 2 DIGG
o33 - 4 DIGG

BREAKING NEWS:
In Ocean 21, where the waters are DIGG-dominated, the (in)famous Rhinokiller struck a vicious blow to IK_Nuke, confirming suspicions that the account was being managed exclusively yesterday not by the competent North Carolinian (uni), but instead the inept Estonian (kek)...

Return from unnamed (21:59:22)
Distance 2,8 nautical miles
Speed 2 knots
Arrival 1 hour
Ships
Large Warships 827
Small Warships 44
Small Merchant Ships 67
Colonization Ships 6
Army
Spearfighters 3640
Archers 582
Catapults 34

You read that correctly. An 800+ fleetsteal in DIGG-dominated o21, as it returned from o12. Not to mention, Rhinokiller sliced through 20k stoners (at the cost of 600 LWS) to execute that fleetsteal.

SNEAK PREVIEW
Island counts coming in today are VERY positive through the first 12-hours. Allies leading 12-6 at midday. Should compensate for a poor Thanksgiving Day performance (particularly by Valheru and E||M).

[Shendemiar]

We destroy 5-10 isle a day... its not showing in these figures.

[Clausewitz]

Correct. I may start incorporating "Score Decrease without Ruler Change" islands.

However, here's the standard data. As eluded to, a very good day for us...

I think you should post this on Pantheon forums to boost their spirit. very nice job clause.

410 members, and they don't have one who can do this? It's not rocket science, it's just a matter of skimming over sms.com and corleth.com, and re-formatting the data that's readily available there, into something that is a bit more indicative of how the fight is going, and where it's happening...

Anyhow, I don't have external forum access there Too much hassle to us an IP-masker and all that. Feel free to pass this along, though.

I'll put up a new map with tomorrow's update, since it might start to show some changes now that a few dozen total isles have traded hands since the last one. Also going to start incorporating score drops > 400 (anything less could just be in prep for colo as opposed to our strategy of dropping nukes on these fuckers michin nom!)

EDIT: Removed English profanity and replaced it with Hangul profanity.

EDIT 2: I'll talk to Pain about getting access over there, I suppose.

[Clausewitz]

November 23rd, 2007 (Supplemental Update)

Islands with score decrease >300
DIGG: 7
Allies: 0

(That means 7 DIGG islands were effectively scorched, and 0 Allied islands)

I've posted your updates there. If you don't want to register there, I can do it for you. I even gave you credit for it:

the following statistics were not gathered by me but by someone else in Morkin. If you have any questions regarding these, you may message me in game and I'll contact the creator. He is the IKPimp! and his identity will remain hidden.

[Clausewitz]

Pain set me up last night, under the name "RogueWarrior" to keep the identity anonymous (only he knows who I am there, as well as everyone here now). I'll stay on top of it over there, Sol. You've got enough on your plate with these joint ops, no need for you to bother with this.

[Sol]

I just saw your post. lol

I'll let you do it all then.
