No option for over 200  ?????

Why  ?????

Because that would depress me even worse than over 100.....  :(

If I had over 200 games in a year I'd be divorced.

I think the reality is most people are going to have less than 30 games per year.  Anyone with more than a hundred should consider themselves very fortunate.

It is interesting to see this number compared against the relatively few battle reports that have been posted...

A large portion of mine have been scenarios.  Also, in some of the playtesting, like the Nid stuff over the summer, we bundled results from multiple games together into general commentary rather than individual game reports.

I suppose the scenario games are fun to share but I generally think of batreps as being focused on playtest issues.

I want to here E&C say y'all with a British accent.  It will be about as funny as hearing me talk about "going on holiday" with my country drawl. :)

I hadn't thought about the scenarios as a mitigator to the difference but I still think there is a monsterous disparity between what is played and what is posted.  I'm guilty of it too especially when a game lasts two turns and provides nothing helpful to the community other than a snapshot of bad dice rolling.  Hey, is the Battlestats board ever going to be up n running again?

Can I average it based on the months I wasn't in Bangladesh? :)

Guess so - wouldn't hurt the statistics too badly.
As regards batreps - I guess I should feel bad about not posting battle reports of the games I have not played.... gloom.
Sorry, spot of PhD blues :blues: there.  :p

i'm in the 30-50 range and some of those were against E&C, almost all were at my club which is the reason for no battle reports.

Dave and I are doing our best to recruit new players. Even with a club, real life responsibilities unfortunately limit my availability.

Besides, I don't need a club to make my wife angry.  :laugh:

:laugh: I hear that.  I suppose that is one of the many differences between a girlfriend and a wife.  
The preacher asked her,
She said, 'I do.'
The peacher asked me,
She said, 'He does too.'

Son, she's no lady she's your wife.'

Another multiplier I didn't think of was the fact that players are going to be claiming the same games played on this poll.  Okay, I feel better about the batrep disparity.  :)

I put myself in the 50-100 range... helps to have a semi-dedicated gaming room with a board always set up...

Lately, Warmachine has been a bit of a distraction for players around here, but EPIC is still plugging away.

Many of the games that I have played have been against book armies so not worth a battle report. Its easy enough to say, my IG army good, my Ork army good, My Speed Freaks Brilliant. My Tyranids don't like the larger Bugs.

Looking forward to having a go with AMTL and Emperors Children over the next year.

50-100, average one a week plus all the tournament games must put me in that range. Guess I need to keep a diary of them all next year!

See? This is why I don't comment about rules.
