	What does the "Post Stats" line mean in user profiles? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

For example, on my profile, it reads:

Posts Stats: A: 18 | D: 21 | M: 9 | HP: 87

What does it all mean, Basil?

	18-12-2002 00:04									#2
	Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

A - Attack
D- Defense
M - Movement
HP - Hit Points



Seriously, where do these como from? How are they calculated?

It means, don't start a fight with a veteran or heavyweight poster.

All I know is that I gave up trying to figure it out after I got to page 18 and someone was posting a funky sine-wave graphic to explain whatever "A" was supposed to mean.

I didn't drop out of college to do higher math in my spare time, dammit...

There is a "shorter version" which is like a headache to the migraine of the other thread:

In the end, we could just have a stats war,

A: 18 | D: 97 | M: 45 | HP: 61

Only if I attacked first. If I moved to a nearby mountain and you acted like the Civ2 AI, I would eventually win, though.

A thread like this was overdue. It has been a while.

Yup... although, the stats are pointless and should take a hike, IMO

Maybe it's because mine are so bad...

Well, stats do create an unsavory, clique-ish sort of elitism amongst some of the more senior posters... everyone here has titles, post counts, and now "hit points" and such.... not to mention that the privilege of a custom avatar only comes after 500 posts (not much for active long-timers, but a veritably insurmountable goal for most everyone else).

I wouldn't say 500 is insurmountable, but a lot of post-counts for the 99/2000 bunch come from the OTF, which explains their rather high Post Counts.

If you want to hide in a mountain that's fine by me. Say hi to OBL.

So... If taking up defensive positions in a mountain make me like OBL (thanks for the double-reply, appreciate the bold)...
Does chasing him around make the US like the Civ2 AI?

The attack loop does bear a passing similarity.

No, it's like trying to chase down a barb leader through rough terrain with your move=1 units.

Yes, and just when you are finally about to catch the barb leader ( ), he disappears like magic.

Then you can tell them no, he's really alive whenever you wanna give that defense/aerospace/biotech industry a little boost... Like a market for all that smallpox vaccine.
