Why did Floop finish 9th, and me 10th...

we both averaged rank 15 exactly, but I had 33 tril more power than him

just curious

PS: Congrats to ETL on winning.

the sum of your ranks were equal...

Floophead_III
9 - 84,015,519,712,390
13 - 162,989,509,656
22 - 113,774,886,048
17 - Lvl: 22 - 52,341,292,082 - Lvl: 23 - 83,358,511,624,604
8 - 327,902,400,000
Sum ranks = 60

bsm
10 - 117,401,646,204,986
21 - 102,959,846,365
12 - 189,000,158,550
12 - Lvl: 24 - 116,870,646,200,071 - Lvl: 0 - 0
15 - 239,040,000,000
Sum ranks = 60

so it seems that it was pure luck for floophead_III

after all, rank is calculated from ranks, not from total power...

from what i understand its something to do with the fact he had 3 higher ranked stats than you, and you only had 2 higher ranked than him

or since there are only 4 ranked stats, I had 2 ranked higher than him, and he had 2 ranked higher than me....

and coincidently, since we both averaged the same rank... his 2 ranks were 15 combined better than mine, and my 2 ranks were *drumroll* 15 better than his!

hehe, as I said, I don't care, I'd just like to know definitively

floop - bsm
13 - 21 (attack)
22 - 12 (defense)
17 - 12 (covert)
8 - 15 (MS)

might be because Floophead had one rank in top 10, while you didnt...

his rank 8 MS is the reason, if your def would be rank 7 and covert rank 17 you would have a better rank.

It happend to me and monsturo in era 9 too...I had a lot more power and we both had, if calculated, same rank, but I was #1 commander while he wasn't commander so his commander rank was 0..

I doubt Commander rank or power has an influence on your rank at the end.

Era:
9
Name: monstruo
Ranks: Attack 9, Def 8, Covert 10, MotherShip 3, Commander 0
Total Power: 61,763,088,097,336
Total Ranks without commander ranking: 30
Overal Rank: 6

Name: Jack Oneil
Ranks: Attack: 8, Def 10, Covert 7, MotherShip 5, Commander 1
Total Power: 75,824,883,545,666
Total Ranks without commander ranking: 30
Overal Rank: 7

in calculation against him, 1 rank with biggest diffrence = Covert, 3 diffrence for me...

So only explanation I found logic is Commander Rank...

your and his best rank in bold ... his best: rank 3, and yours: rank 5. Therefore he has a better overall rank.

Indeed but if you look at biggest rank diffrence, it's 3 in my favour

Rank difference would matter only if the overall rank is based on a standard deviation.


PS: I ll give you an example: Formula 1

lets say Kimi Raikonnen and Fernando Alonso both have 120 points at the end of the season.

Kimi won the race 6 times, Alonso 5 times.

Who will win the championship?
