579 Kongo_Pride Members 832 posts 25,106 battles Report post #1 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Hello Fellow Shipmates, I am looking for a "mediocre" captain to join me in an experiment with warships involving two players. The requirements for this captain in assisting me are the following; 1. Must have an overall win rate between 45 and 48 percent. 2. Personal stats cannot be hidden. 3. Must have at least 3,000 Player versus Player battles. 4. Must be willing to share email information, and provide statistical performance/data/input for one ship in at least 30 battles on an excel document. 5. Must have at least one 19 point commander and a ship Tier VII or higher with less than 25 battles played in PvP. 6. Must be ok with personal play statistics and performance from experiment being shared on these forums for educational purposes and to help explore ways in which players really benefit from commanders on their ships. 7. Must conduct all PvP battles solo and be prepared to record results/screenshots/etc. 8. Prefer you have a mic and access to discord, but not required. 9. Prefer you have a premium account for statistics data, but not required. 10. Prefer your input goes beyond just sharing the data; in helping with feedback/analysis, but not required. As always two collaborative heads are always better than one. Please ping me back in this thread if you are interested in assisting me in gathering data, finding trends, and reporting on this back to the community regarding the general performance of assigned ship captains and their commander points impact on gameplay. Please identify what tier VII or higher ship(s) you would be willing to play. I will review the candidates who volunteer and select one. First to volunteer who meets the criteria, goes to the top of the list. Note: If you volunteer, I cannot guarantee any rewards from your support other than the satisfaction of knowing that the information you provide could impact how people perceive their assigned commanders and commander skills and what benefits those skills have in games. -Kongo Edited January 18, 2019 by Kongo_Pride 7 2 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

73 [WOLF1] oldblackdog Members 271 posts 56,052 battles Report post #11 Posted January 19, 2019 Interesting idea. I can satisfy most, but not all of your requirements ( especially the "mediocre player" part ). I have no problem with sharing information, although the guys who get stuck with having me on a random team might not be too happy. If you think we can work something out, send me a pm here. Otherwise, I wish you the best of luck with your experiment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not there overall, but would be willing in USN CA's, which would quickly put my overall in that range. I have a 19 pt us captain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,258 [XBRTC] LT_Rusty_SWO Members 3,154 posts 10,065 battles Report post #15 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) I’ve got over 2000 games worth of MXStat export available if you want, and I think I fit most of your criteria. There is some division play in there, but it would be easy to filter out. re: t7+ ships, I think I have all of them except KM & IJN cruisers and the carriers. I do have PE and the ARP ships though.

1,722 [RKLES] dEsTurbed1 [RKLES] Beta Testers, In AlfaTesters 6,276 posts 21,700 battles Report post #23 Posted January 19, 2019 What are the goals? Must the ship selected have the same win rate? For example, my Conquer has 2 pvp matches with 100% win rate? My Gearing has under 10 PVP matches, but 50+ Clan Wars matches.... You list requirements, but no stated goals or objectives for study. If you want I can yolo in my Gearing and tank my stats.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
