Still breathing
I was wondering if there were any advantages of playing one class over the other. So I did a little analysis of the last 5 GOTM (using the Top 10 finishers) and comparing by Class, by Victory type and by Map Type.
I was surprised to find that there have actually been more Top 10 finishes registered by players of the OPEN class than of the PREDATOR class. (Although GOTM 30 was really skewed towards the OPEN class as far as the results, an 8 to 2 advantage.) I think to no ones surprise 70% or 35 of the top 50 finishs were by Domination (28) & Conquest (7).
This leads me to ask should the Jason scoring system be tweaked to reward some of the other victory conditions. It seems to me that being able to create a 20K culture city is as impressive in a GOTM as a pre 800AD Domination victory, for example.
Here is the data that I pulled from the GOTM results.
