	What do the Post Stats numbers mean in members' profiles? Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I am curious about the Post Stats numbers found in "profile" at the top of every post.

For example, what do "A: 18 | D: 9 | M: 4 | HP: 94" mean? They do look a bit like D&D player stats (IIRC, in this case, an pretty good medium level fighter).

A search of Apolyton failed to turn up any information.

In general A, D and M seem to increase with the number of posts that a member has posted. However, HP seems to vary all over the place with no discernible pattern.

Does anyone know?

	Put an end to popups!

I think I have seen this asked in the Apolyton/Community forum Here is a Link, I would suggest you ask there as I don't recall what the correct answer is.

Sorry I couldn't be more help

@Sparrowhawk
Thank you very much. I located the thread from Sept 2004 in the Community Forum and then spent way too much time reading other threads. Interesting place.

For those who are interested but don't want to go searching for it, here's the answer

quote: Originally posted by conmcb25 These are dependent on your post count. A (attack) is based on how many posts you have. D (defense) is based on what your average posts-per-day is. M (movement) is based on the proportion of how long you have been registered to your post count. HP (hit points) shows how long it's till next A increase. When HP goes to 99, next increase, A increases by 1, and HP drops to 0.

Doesn't have to be in A/C, which means we have a winner! From memory (don't have time to check) I think it's Gramphos, as he is the only one with an active guess IIRC.



I'll start a thread in A/C later or Sparrow can do the honours.
