Strange but true, WIN% - Stryker - 01-11-2007 Can anyone explain this? I have played 140 battles of which I have won 70 and failed to win 70, but my WIN percentage is .575 surely that should read .500 :conf: I'm never going to get a wooden cross at this rate!! :hissy: RE: Strange but true, WIN% - Yossarian - 01-11-2007 Maybe it's just the "new math"... :smoke: RE: Strange but true, WIN% - Jason Petho - 01-11-2007 And how many did you draw? Take care and good luck Jason Petho RE: Strange but true, WIN% - Stryker - 01-11-2007 Yes I thought of that and I guess that's why, but it does say WIN%, percentage of matches won or not won and a draw is not a win :P RE: Strange but true, WIN% - Hawk Kriegsman - 01-11-2007 This is for winning percentages calculations only. It is becasue each win is worth 2 points, a draw 1 point and a loss 0 points. So you could have earned 280 points in 140 matches. You earned 161 points: (70 Wins x2) + (21 Draws x1) + (49 Loses x0) = 161. 161 divided by 280 = .575 Winning PCT. Thanx!

It was just something that had been nagging at me for a while :) RE:��Strange but true, WIN% - Hawk Kriegsman - 01-11-2007 Stryker Wrote:Ah, that makes sense, thanks Hawk.
