G&R range indicator

I think it would be useful for people if the can see where th G&R range begins , I know it begins somewhere between 1200 and 1300, but I would like it more exact.Just to make life a bit easier, and knowing where you have to go for to get in the G&R range or the second border (0.2%) of the G&R.

I think it should be displayed by the Military Effectiveness, under Glory and reputation score. Something like:

Glory and Reputation Score (ranked 1228 or below to get) ...

Re: G&R range indicator

Quick way to figure out the approximate value:
- go to Attack, then click on Rankings
- scroll down to the bottom of the page and look for the total number of players -- 81,690 players total | page 1 of 2,723
- scroll up and look for the number of unranked players -- Unranked Realms 16,123
- 81,690-16,123=65,567
- multiply the result by 2% (if you want to get in 1 G&R point/turn range) or 0.2% (if 5 G&R points/turn range) -- 65,567*2%=1,311

Then again, I have nothing against the G&R range being shown on the Command Center page so you don't have to do the maths :)

Re: G&R range indicator

I've seen this formula, but it's just a indication where it starts (Isn't it), roughly. I would like it somewhat more exact. And of course for those under us how have trouble with calculating it would also be nice.

Re: G&R range indicator

I guess there could be an indication by colour, like say 5 g&r ranking are red and 1 g&r is blue or something like that. The rest of the rankings remain black.

Like, when your on the attack screen, the rankings change colors for those instances?

Re: G&R range indicator

I like the idea of the G&R being indicated in some way. Even so you would know what rank you need to get the 5 G&R per turn.

Re: G&R range indicator

perhaps have it listed on the training page below the current plague/no-raid/no-trade-uu/perg limits?

Re: G&R range indicator

I agree with both of the idea's, in the rankings has the advantage it's easily visible, but it might cause increased attacks to those in G&R to get them out.

and on the bottom of the training page, because there are already some stats about the gamingsystem

Re: G&R range indicator

Usually whenever you do try to do the math it is probably 50 ranks or so over what you need to be. Having a definit minimum goal to get there may encourage some people to try harder to reach it.

Re: G&R range indicator

Kurushio is right. When I did the math a week or so ago the number I got (I did the math right) was that you needed to be ranked 1315....I was ranked 1253 and wasn't getting any G&R. I dropped my rank down to 1226 and then I was getting G&R but I don't know where the cutoff is.

Re: G&R range indicator

you probably forgot to subtract the "unranked realms" from the total number of realms...

Total Realms 19803 + 20520 + 10199 + 22169
Unranked Realms 16,253

g&r:
1128,76

Re: G&R range indicator

As of posting there are 82,446 players, 16,255 inactive.....top 2% cutoff = 1,324 but if it's the same as when I did it the other week I bet that people around 1,275 aren't getting any G&R.
Adding up the total number of realms and the number of players produces a difference of 9757, does anyone know where those nearly 10K players disappeared to?
@ Zeratul
Your post makes me think I'm not taking something into account but I"m not sure what?...and 1,128 seems too low because I know a week ago I WAS getting G&R when I was in the low 1,200s.
