Are those average bootrates knyte?

No, they arent.

No they're toal boots/total games played. So a clanwide bootrate. Mean and median are also in this thread, though, if you care: https://www.warlight.net/Forum/105755-alternative-clan-rankings?Offset=100

i think, personally, fizzer should separate multi day boot rates and real time boot rates.

Edited 8/29/2015 20:30:27

Boot rate is just a measure of how reliable you are at playing the game you said you were going to play. I don't see a need to separate them between multi-day and real-time- it's just a simple measure of reliability. And if you've got a consistency problem on top of a reliability problem, that's even worse.

Knyte, you like Circle clan too much. I try playing with them now and then but they're all so immature it's hard. Plus, they make a lot of bad diplomacy games. You can ask OTP about that, or was it Ox the Artist? Shrug.

But knyte, I finish far more multi day games than real time games, as real time games are more time dependent.

Hm, what's that Genghis?

Best strategic clans:
1. Apex
2. WG
3. GG
4. Lynx
5. Masters or Blitz

Best RP clans:
1. RP Guild
rest unknown, maybe corp idk.

But knyte, I finish far more multi day games than real time games, as real time games are more time dependent.

Yeah, if for some reason you are having lag/have to take a break during a multiday game, you'll still have many, many hours to reply. If you lag in RT, on smaller boot rate games, you're a goner.

@Tyrion:

Below is a plot of every clanned Warlight player's boot rate versus the portion of their games that's real-time. I think the title covers it.



If you're curious, the Pearson correlation coefficient for a linear regression of this data is 0.02305 (that's an r**2 of 0.0005, meaning only 0.05% of data is explained by the regression) and the two-tailed p-value is 0.1532. Feel free to suggest other regressions in case you think they'll have a high-enough r or a low-enough p-value (I only did linear because I like scipy.stats a lot and felt bad about not using it- I can't look at this data and see any worthwhile regressions). I've got the data saved just in case.

I envy your freetime amount.

Challange, find yourself.

Also reasoning behind my top 5 strategic clans:

1. [20] Szeweningen, Myhand, Odin, HHH, Piggy, Unkownsoldier, Fridge. Speaks for itself.
2. Apex - Won CL5 I think & CL6.
3. WG - Best 3v3 EU clan.
4. GG - So many great players like Latnox and Ctrl, they are almost a hybrid Elite Clan.
5. Lynx - " " " " " JSA " Ruthless Bastard " " " " " "

@Kapy: Less because of free-time and more because I don't spend it wisely. :P But hey, at least I don't have time to troll the forums or write a screed about why the imperial Japanese flag is bad and clans using it should be opposed. Also coding during free time makes sense for me- since, y'know, ABC ("Always Be Coding").

Also, since the graph looked kinda quadratic-y, I tried a quadratic regression to see how well it would do. It's the thin blue line- and that line tells you a lot more than just "quadratic regressions don't work for this data":
