    I agree with the half crown nonsense, but I can't side with an honor crown being on the same level as a land/nw crown. Godly makes a decent point that NW should be ignored. I also can't ignore the circumstances of a crown. Warcry/HoH crowns are NOT worth as much as a typical age crown.

    Until a crown is made part of the game officaly, and your account is actually tagged with tiny little crown somehow, a crown is whatever you want it to be.

    Yet I don't see anything about a war win crown...

    Maybe because the mechanics are garbage and it doesn't represent any real skill if you should rind yourself at the top. War win and honor crowns just mean you farmed out more ghettos than the other kds that were trying to farm out ghettos.

    And before everyone gets all mad, I'm not saying it doesn't take skill to war. I'm saying you don't need to be the best at warring to win the war win crown. You need to be the best at trucking kds you can beat into warring you.

    Winning land crown is about who gets to farm trinity or simians first. You can't just diminish a crown based on a general premise, otherwise you can toss aside any crown. Try going for honor, and you'll see the competition is just as fierce. It's different, but still very competitive.

    As well, the crown system does not adjust for anecdotal evidence because behind every crown is a story, and changing any details of the plot could have altered the course of the crown. Warcry winning a crown in an awar age is still strategy; they figured out that the path of least resistance is to stay neutral. As for HoH, they realized that Anri is an incompetent hothead, and goaded him into farming out - another clever diplomatic ploy. In any age, any decision could ultimately cost you a crown; and any subplot could be spun to make your crown seem undeserving. All that matters is what the charts record as the number 1 kingdom, and nothing else is relvant. After all, at the end of the day, we don't care that Kevin Durant is going to be All Time Scoring Leader in 20 years due to him receiving ticky tack bull**** fouls.

    So how do you rank value? Who decide what is more valuable and what is not? There is no way of making that a viable thing cause everyone has different opinions about it.

    Maybe cause the system hasnt been revised for a warwin chart? Ask Syntico if he want to include that.
