Outfit Member Totals

keam02 · 2003-07-06, 06:07 PM

WTF, there is an outfit on TR Konried that has like 1150 members. I thought outfits were sposed to be a group that new eachother well and coordinated things well together as a community. Maybe I think that cause I came from EQ, but damn, isnt 1150 a bit of overkill?

Seems like it to me... The highest count on Emerald is like 900 something, its nuts....

Ahh you have seen the horrer that is the machine killing lag inducing zerg fest that is the EHL. Me and my mates have gone from calling Terrans Terrans to callling them EHL. It's faster to type. My friend made a TR character. 5 minutes after logging in he got invited to the EHL......

They should do two things. Limit outfits to 120 members and for rankings divide points by the number of people in an outfit. What an outfit with 1k members has the most points? What a suprise

There are actually two 1000+ outfits in PS. ELH on Konried and D2A on Markov. D2A has 1009 members. Of course, they're a total zerg outfit, but virtually all of the large ones are.

There are a few Vanu outfits that come close. The Gathering on Johari has 979 members. Azure Twilight on Emerald has 938.

Without doing a too indepth search, it looks like Liberty on Emerald has the most average outfit points per member. A member of Liberty averages 8,553 points (rounded to the nearest integer).

Its stupid

I love it how a clan like HEL or CDL has like 60 members but they have the same amount of points as some clan with 1000 members

The thing with these outfits that have like 1k+ members is you hardly ever get grief points since whenever you shoot a teammate it is an outfit member. Unless they switched this in a recent patch simply because of this.

I was in Retards With Sticks on Emerald with 350 people, insanely retarded, I can't even imagine an outfit with 1k+. The outfit chat must be flooding in. Christ that would be retarded as hell.

Outfit with 1k=DELETED!

man it was great duing beta when the mass clans started and the highest on Markov (i think thats waht we played on) was around 300 and we (cdl) had less than 30 i would like to say yet we never fell below 3erd. And then now on Emerald this Da Kor outfit is freakin amazing they got liek 20 poeple and still are ranked a-freakin-mazin.

-the limit needs to be like 150 these clans are a joke and through the leader board way off.

ELH will LITERALLY invite anyone. I mean that, don't mistake them for having any scruples or selectability. I guarantee you if you sit in the sanctuary without an outfit name above your head you will get an invite inside of 15 minutes. I watched it happen to my room mate as he logged on for the first time.(traitorous bastard chose TR on my home server)

MarkHawk · 2003-07-07, 06:21 PM

I love My outfit the Hawks. Out limit will be 120 and we have about 96 now and we are slowy kicking those who are tker and never on so we can have people we know around us and people who want to play a lot and have fun to also be there. The Hawks are a lot of fun for me wouldn't trade it for the world.

More ELH Craziness:

Back when I was outfitless, I sat in the sanc for 10 mins waiting for my friend to hop out of the VR. In that 10 minute period, I counted I got so fed up, I watched 10 ELH members walk past me, and EACH ONE invited me. I would personally like an outfit with a 30-60 member limit; that way, you have enough to field 2 Platoons (if that is ever implemented...still waiting). I agree with the general sentiment, if an outfit has 1k members, it should be broken up/deleted because the leader board just becomes entirely screwed.

Fake Leaderboard:

(Outfit) (Members) (Points)
ELH 1k+ 999999999999
All others Below 1k 9999999999

And YES, I could've made this in Excel, but I'm lazy. Sue me.
