I don't think the win/loss ratio is a fair assement either -- have been
stuck in some indie games I knew where losers from what others do and don't do or
even if they decide to talk or not talk --you know that game won't be
organized, not to mention Gunboats game -- I could have been doing great with my
nations, but other got swamped and thus game will be lost eventually -- so is
kind of biased on that to !! I tend to look at the "Best Enemy nation" -- as
you don't usually know who that enemy nation player is in some games that you
vote for and evidently you made an impression on someone that they chose you
out of all the other enemy players as the best in that game even if on a
losing side !!

Initial creation: I checked out any records we had and went from
there. There's been enough time to see changes I suspect and any initial
errors to have been reduced in impact.

I generally just look at the win/loss ratio for a feel for player's quality.

I do this too. I look at best enemy and best teammate. Then again, I can name a lot of people I think should be higher than me just off the top of my head!

I like numbers. Hockey scores, baseball stats, Agent skill rank, loyalty, Tax base, even VP's for comparative analysis, etc. Similarly, I think the PRS is a "bit of fun" in regards to how they change, where some people are in relation to others, etc.

Having said that, I'm personally under no illusion that they "mean" anything... Even the votes, which are, by nature, *political*. I would never "consult" the PRS to see if Bob or Jane are "good players". Oh my my, no no no..!!!
