[CATCH] DDMafiaAssociateMember Players 433 posts 6,031 battles Report post #1 Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Hello everyone! I've seen elimination threads like these on WOTLabs, and thought: "Hey, these could work for WOWS too!", but I've never gotten round to making one. Until today. For those unfamiliar with how these threads work, I'll explain it. All the tanks (in this case ships) in a particular tier are listed in the OP, and each starts with a score of 20. The next post copies the list and removes 3 points from the ship that they think is worst and adds 1 point to the ship they think is best, explaining why in each case, like so: Ship A: 20-3=17 (Doesn't have the firepower to make up for the lack of armour and agility) Ship B: 20 Ship C: 20+1=21 (The torpedoes are great, the ship is fast and stealthy and the guns are good) Every following post copies the most up to date list and does likewise. When a ship reaches 0 points it is eliminated, hence the name, and is removed from the list. The last ship left wins the thread. Rules: 1: No fiddling with the point totals 2: No resurrecting eliminated ships 3: You must have played tier 10 in the current patch. No exceptions. 4: One vote per person per day. Multiple votes will be ignored. Starting list: Midway (2/1/2): 20 Midway (3/0/2): 20 Midway (1/1/3): 20 Montana: 20 Des Moines: 20 Gearing: 20 Hakuryu (2/3/2): 20 Hakuryu (2/3/3): 20 Hakuryu (4/2/2): 20 Yamato: 20 Zao: 20 Shimakaze (Long lances): 20 Shimakaze (type 93 mod. 2): 20 Shimakaze (type F3): 20 Hindenburg: 20 G. Kurfurst (406mm): 20 G. Kurfurst (420mm): 20 Moskva: 20 Khabarovsk: 20 Khabarovsk (ET-46): 20 Minotaur: 20 Latest list: Midway (2/1/2): 18 Midway (3/0/2): Eliminated Midway (1/1/3): 16 Montana: Eliminated Des Moines: 22 Gearing: 23 Hakuryu (4/2/2): 20 Hakuryu (2/3/3): 23 Hakuryu (2/3/2): 21 Yamato: 23 Zao: 27 Shimakaze (Long lances): Eliminated Shimakaze (type 93 mod. 2): 20 Shimakaze (type F3): 11 Hindenburg: 23 G. Kurfürst (406mm): 21 G. Kurfürst (420mm): 20 Moskva: 22 Khabarovsk: 22 Khabarovsk (ET-46): Eliminated Minotaur: 15 Final list: *Winner*: 2nd: 3rd: 4th: 5th: 6th: 7th: 8th: 9th: 10th: 11th: 12th: 13th: 14th: 15th: 16th: 17th: 18th: Khabarovsk (ET-46) 19th: Montana 20th: Shimakaze (Long Lances) 21st and last: Midway (3/0/2) Let it begin!
