Originally by: Jasmine Constantine I'd consider it a personal favour if the Amarrians not actually fighting this war could continue their endless nonsensical torturing of logic in one of the numerous threads they have designed for the purpose elsewhere. Keep this thread for commenting on the war diary please. (And yes, I would like the ISD mods to intervene and remove off topic discussion if possible to ensure this thread doesn't get bogged down with irrelevent discussion that has nothing to do with this weeks diary).
Well, we couldn't have you feel in any way obliged now could we little Jasmine.
I really do think you ought to change your name from Star Fraction to Star Fiction. It somehow appear to be a more suitable name.

Originally by: Tomahawk Bliss to clarify for OSS's involvment
Bastables had nothing to do with it, I asked for the war and it was declared. SF's luck was that Naphtalia, CEO of Black Rabbits has a personal friendship with a few members of OSS' leadership (something I didn't know at the time) and was able to cause enough trouble in defence of Sani Sabik and Star Fraction that it wasn't worth the issue.
I was looking forward to some fun in Amarr, I made a request and OSS obliged. simple as that, no cloak and dagger games or anything of the like. don't paint it so romantic.

So, am I to understand that when an SF official speaks on behalf of your alliance you do not feel any obligation to follow his words?
Nope.
Now viewing these posts together makes it absolutely clear that the "we" referred to in Ituraldes post (as well as in any other post by SF members) is simply an empty phrase.
After all, no SF pilot is bound by the words of any other SF pilot be he an official spokesman of the alliance or not.
Basically, anything said by any SF pilot is simply an empty meaningless series of words made up to suit the occasion.

Ah, the numbers game... the VV statistics stand at:
Inflicted: 2 Assault Frigattes, 2 Battlecruisers, 4 Battleship, 4 Heavy Assault Ships, 3 Interceptors and 1 Recon Cruiser totalling 1.448 billion ISK.
Losses: 1 Assault Frigatte, 4 Battleships, 6 Cruisers, 1 Industrial, 2 Interceptors, 1 Interdictor and 1 Shuttle totalling 521 million ISK.
The overall efficiency thus stands as 74.05% and we are determined to raise it above 90% like for all of our campaigns past and present.
Otherwise a nice work containing a lot of wishfull thinking, worthy to be the basis for one of the Gallente holoreels you seem to fancy so much.
If the SF had bothered to define clear cut goals from start we could even measure how successfull this week has been for them. As they did not the statistics are all we have unfortunately. Thank you for engaging a foe that outgunned you in his never undocking legion of T1 cruisers though.

Obviously its entirely ridiculous to take your kill figures singularly since you act in concert with other Amarrian loyalists always. Otherwise we'd have to deduct the figures you are claiming from AM and PIE figures and make theirs worse. VV have been involved with 4 BS Kills vs SF, PIE have been involved with 6 - you suggest we've lost 10 and should double account for losses for two different organisations acting together? Insane.
As anyone sensible can see our general overview of the statistics showing SF vs PIE/AM/VV as a single set of figures is the only meaningful measure of the campaign proceess and your interjection is just a attempt to hide the truth. If you want to present this kind of thing I suggest you do as PIE have done and author your own war diary Amarrian.
And for the record the isk figures are ridculous since all tech2 hulls used by SF in this campaign are manufactured by our shipyards and sold internally to pilots at build cost. Have a nice day!

I could argue that we aren't in combined fleets, but it really isn't necessary.
The fact remains that you can't freely travel around your own capitol, and that fact will remain to be the case.
By all means though, take what small victories you can and you might even be able to convince yourselves that you are actually winning. _____________________________ Fear is the mind-killer.

VV, you have to make a certain number of appearance to the battlefield to throw numbers. A small sample size always will be suspect, even if we are the ones doing the beating. But the fact their is a small sample size does measure your zeal. The so called praetorians (VV & PIE) do a fine job of keeping the station chairs warm.
But as Jasmine said, the splitting of numbers and double counting of things is typical. Should we split up Star Fraction into corporation statistics? That would do the same thing. And the restriction of reporting losses to public record among many if not all of you is indicative of many things.

Really? I have been there earlier, conducted my business and left again, despite of four of your pilots being in system. At the same time Lallara, to whom I was chatting, outfitted a battleship with modules she bought from nearby systems and carried to Amarr.
Whom are you trying to fool? You cannot and do not control Amarr enough to have any impact on normal operations. But my all means: sit in your little trench all day shouting 'we are winning, PIE is disintegrating!'

I was just under the impression that all sensible parties had agreed that posting statistics on the IGS is a bad idea a long time ago as it just leads to endless discussions about what is the right way to display them and how many kills were omitted by what side.
*slaps head* THERE is the problem.

Wrong. Our figures make perfect sense. Accept that or not, its not my concern. But putting up a nonsense interpretation to try and prove ALL statistics are meaningless is simply being ignorant. End of the day we've blown up 182 war target ships and pods, your side has blown up 47 ships and pods of ours. You can't make that kind of number go away with simple propaganda and wish fulfilment.

Do you have an efficiency percentage to go with that or are those meaningless as they don't suit you, too? Every time you'll post your statistic I will post ours - it is of no concern to me if you think it makes sense either.

Quote: I think it's been shown quite readily that the only recourse the Amarrian paramilitaries have at the moment is to point fingers and shout "Liar, Liar."
What do you mean "At the moment"?
It's quite obvious that PIE and its erstwhile allies have been shaking in their boots from the very moment the Star Fraction declaration was made. You can tell the obvious difference in how PIE's GalNet warriors behave when speaking to other war targets, and how they reacted from the very first post from the Fraction.
They lost this war even before the 24 hour timer to start hostilities was up.

Killboard Statstics can be calculated countless ways, most of them are foolish.
Raw numbers are far better. We could inflate point values on our killboard as well and come with a different efficiency.
But, since you are interested? Our efficiency for this war is just under 70%. _____________________________ Fear is the mind-killer.

Of course, there is quite a bit of anecdotal evidence of bold Amarrian shuttle and frigate pilots flying around the local hub systems, carrying assets to replace those lost on the battlefield, or running whatever errands are considered "normal operations" in the paramilitary circles. Still, one cannot hide one's surprise over how much the operations of Amarrian paramilitaries have changed to fit changing times, for being such conservative organizations.
On a different note, I would like to send congratulations to those pilots who have been officially recognized, especially Alyne. Her relentless fighting spirit and good humour have really carried on this interesting campaign.

Yes indeed. Numbers always serve to provide the general picture for uninvolved parties.
What is relevant though, is that Star Fraction, while facing a numerically larger foe (the representatives of superior race at that), has complete superiority in space on your own turf.
Congratulations SF. Hopefully upcoming weeks will bring you more success.

No plate. Armour repairers don't repair instantly, and if you are called primary there is a possibility your tank won't hold.

Efficiency is a derived statistic that can be calculated in any number of ways. It is as open to debate and questions of relevance as ISK loss values, kill points or any other derived statistic.
This is why we only quote actual ship numbers destroyed, because only these numbers have true meaning. And I note you do not dispute them, because you cannot.
If you want more information on how badly you are faring, our killboard is open to all. For your reference, our efficiency calculations are based on kill points, point values are listed on the Help page, and ISK values on kill pages are clearly marked as approximate and for amusement value only.
When you are done nitpicking, feel free to muster your fleet.

I'm reasonably sure that every time SF has had favourable efficiency ratings they've not hesitated to parade them in their war diaries.
How bizarre that whenever the statistics aren't so favourable the statistical methodology suddenly becomes open to debate.

Over my time in Jericho two sets of war diaries were published, and as far as I can remember, the only statistics mentioned were always numbers of vessels destroyed.
In case I am wrong, statistics based on a point system or value of assets destroyed are very much favorable for SF in this conflict.

an interesting claim, but again proven to be baseless and a desperate attempt at spin on behalf of PIE.
Sadly for you, the "efficiency rating" you're clinging to there was only conceived of and implements in the latest version of the war record software.

It does have retroactive capabilities however, so we can see what it was during KD and CYI.
