1up's average score explained
Some people have speculated on why 1up's average score is not as high as they expected. Some have even posited that maybe it's down to a lack of quality in some of our members. The following irc log may go some way toward offering an explanation.
The log is from a 1up channel used by our Military Officers and HCs. It has been edited slightly to remove coordinates and material irrelevant to the main content - but is otherwise unchanged. When it happened it had all of our command staff (except one) in stitches.
Enjoy.

Theres a Sid-quote laying around in someones sig, but I dont remember which. The main point was that Storebo was sentanced to never ever touch a calc again, due to some rather serious errors producing a slightly unwanted outcome

It was a large battle, can't remember if fury was attacking or defending, for the sake of argument, we'll say Fury was attacking (I still have the log somewhere), and the outcome was something like attackers lose 120mil, defenders lose 60mil. Storebo calced it and said something along the lines of "It looks good". Sid's response was: "Storebo, which side are you on?". The whole log is very funny. Had me in stitches at the time. I'll have to dig it up at some point.

And myself i was landing second tick.. and when someone pasted the br... I looked at the wrong part... and declared our victory in the channel

I think it might have been me running that battle, though I can't remember too well. I'll dig up the log sometime. Makes for a good laugh.

The great almighty Zhil cannot make mistakes.
I am sure this is merely a cunning plan to lull you all into a false sense of security.

Re: 1up's average score explained
It was funny to see the whole event unfold, and to zhils horror that forest had capped his fleet
<3 Zhil
I believe Tis said at one point "this is funnier than what happened with Storebo" for those who dont know the quote
<[Fury]Storebo> they lost 40 mill more then us
<[Fury]Syn_Sid> <[Fury]Storebo> attackers lost 104 mill and we 64 mill... << which side you on?
