       Does setting fellow clan-mates on fire increase your efficiency
       rating?

       Here's my thoughts on stats FWIW...
       K/D Ratio: Useless. Just last night I dropped 3300 damage on my
       T32 with only 1 kill. Obviously I made a much greater impact on
       the game than the guy who did 300 damage with 2 kills.
       Damage Ratio: This one is skewed depending on your tank, and is
       not a universal stat as it appears. An arty should be high, but
       a heavy may be closer to 1 due to number of HP on the tank you
       drive.
       Win %: Not sure how I feel about this one. When half my team is
       dead in the first minute, I feel like this stat leans more
       toward useless.
       Battles Survived: Will always be less than your win%. Also
       useless, based on the fact you may have held a flank solo and
       death was unavoidable, but your team won because you stalled
       their push.
       Avg Detected: Unless you're a spotter, what does this even
       matter?
       Avg Tier: Useless. Its a sign of how long you've been playing,
       or what your favorite tier is.
       If you use it religiously, you need to rethink priorities.
       Winning a map is always my goal. If I get a medal, great, but I
       never enter a map with a medal as a goal.
       These are all my opinion, and yes, Im an asshole :)

       Mike - Good Points and that's why stats like these are only
       really good to compare within a player, not between players.  To
       get a really accurate assessment, you would need to break these
       out by individual tanks.  Additionally,you would need to
       normalize the data for the tank package and have a minimum
       sample size of at least 15-20 matches.  There are so many
       variables, like map rotation, matchmaking, etc. that need to be
       factored in and require a fairly large sample size to account
       for these effects.

       I walk The Path of Damage.
       Kills are nice but i strive each and every match to be top of
       the board in damage.
       We are paid more for damage than kills.

       The more I think about it, individual stats are nice but this is
       a team based game. I was going to try and put the eff. in my
       signature but the more I thought about it there's no reason for
       me to do it? I saw them and I was pleased with the results but
       when it comes down to it they are based on team play and the
       fact that my team did well and my platoon mates did well and
       more times than not helped me obtain these results. just my
       opinion on it? thanks

       this.

       I know that I'm not as good a player as most in this clan.
       Efficiency is not as important to me as covering a flank,
       holding back tanks so my team can breakthrough, or just doing
       the dirty work. I know who the good players are and know that I
       am only supporting them so my team can win. You have fight hard
       and fight to the end.

       I didn't do mine to brag, I just put mine so i can compare to
       myself without having to go back to the russian site all the
       time.  Having fun and teamwork are much more important than any
       stats.  Those who play for the team (holding flanks, drawing
       fire to expose hidden enemies, taking on a well positioned
       opponent to try and knock them out) will always have worse stats
       than they should.  No one should judge or look down on other
       people due to stats.

       I'm sure my stats suck. I've only looked at the in-game stats -
       and they suck. I play to win for my team; at the same time I
       play to have fun. I will continue to do the same... stats be
       damned.
