Re: Officers - Best DCs
From my own experience, Irvine.
From reputation from people I trust, Spacez, NitinA, Sleepless, Heartless, Rob.
And then I have to mention Stoom so he doesn't kick me in the butt. But he really does have the dedication needed, although we haven't actually been in the same alliance for a couple of years or so.

I am regularly amazed by some peoples inability to DC even when theyve proven they can use a battle-calc.

You make some good points....and I don't disagree that there are bad DCs. There are other factors such as fakes, overcoverage, undercoverage, not taking firing order into consideration etc. I remember some new MO back in R15 I think it was that was covering tzen waves by doing -def XXX tzen vsh and we had to go back and re-cover everything in that time frame.
On the other hand, Ive seen people who typically haven't been MOs come in and do awesome job on coverages.
As far as coverage strategy, Id have to say Sid, as he really has it down to an exact science.

I've seen exactly the same. And there's people who will come in and screw up, or they'll come in and not do too well because they're not confident enough and worry about screwing up, even if they do have the ability.
And this highlights my points; some people naturally have an aptitude for playing around with numbers in a stupid game and if they combine this with commitment and eventually experience, they make great DCs (or BCs...). Whereas someone who doesn't have the aptitude, no matter how well they can use a bcalc, will not make such a great DC.

Re: Officers - Best DCs
I thought I posted before? Oh well...
erm, i cant really remember dc's from other alliances than hr :S
But we had a kickass officer team in rnd 11 as far as I remember. Teddy, Zoof, Jirikai, Mek?... bah i cant remember
Neogunner was excellent in round 16, pity he's been disturbed by the evil rl-syndrome

Re: Officers - Best DCs
Mario is a pretty awesome DC when I was in 1up he used to always manage to defend me whenever my galmates told him I have incs.
He isn't very chatty though
Probably because he's so busy organising defence all the time!

Re: Officers - Best DCs
Any DC in 1up when everyone could steal ships terran xan cat zik where all stealing mofo's.
DCing in SiN when i was there when ziks started to steal again back in the day was hard enough so watching the 1up DC pull defence from there butts and spend time on each defence call with all them stolen ships floating about takes some patience and time and they did a cracking job of it.
edit: being a dc myself a few times there is nothing harder in the game than waiting for the tick getting the 5-10 incoming reports in first 10 seconds and then getting all the bcalcs out and then spamming channels with the patience of a saint trying to get defence for everyone and getting 20+ pm's going through each one of them working out the calcs sending ships where ever they are sent ading there def points and then next set of defence etc... etc... I bow down to all you hard working DC's

Re: Officers - Best DCs
I would love to get 20pms donating ships *sigh* when i DC i even offer body organs to help but no such look.
Its always the same thing you need anti fi and you only have anti DE, you then fake the anti fi with the destroyers.
1min later you need them back
