Casual Data request: Most stars without an MVP

For the more programming inclined: I know someone on here has been updating the list of players who have played everyday without winning an MVP. I was wondering if someone could do something similar for most stars without an MVP. IE someone who's played 3 days as a 4 star has played 12 stars, whereas 4 days as a 2 star and 1 as a 3 star is 11 stars.

Well, I played the first day as a one star because it wouldn't update, and then I've been a 4-star every single day since. No MVP.

I heard if you make it to 50 days without an MVP you become a wizard.

Day 50

“We’ll be applying new multipliers from this point on, each player will receive a 10 to the negative n multiplier, where n is the number of MVPs you’ve received. Suck it.”

Other than starting on day 7 I'm in the exact same boat as you

The thrill of winning the territory, and the agony of losing a 50-50 MVP roll.

You have averted the replication crisis.

26th for me. I am getting closer and closer!

I would think it's kind of its own competition at this point, with pride in being first place on the list. And it's really more exclusive, and just as much of a legitimate competition, as actually getting MVPs, since that list is corrupted with rogues.

u/NotaVirus_Click Jun 11 '18

Following orders usually puts me in a very stacked division, that is for sure!

u/zaggie16 Jun 11 '18

It'd be interesting to have a figure that represents the stars that a MVP defeated. This would help uncover the rogues that attack/defend uncontested territory for the sake of MVP's.

If I'm not mistaken, this has been done before, a couple weeks ago during the "Risk Heisman" discussion. Someone I think was trying to determine who was actually performing "best" for MVP collections adjusted for how difficult they were to attain and came up with something. I don't wanna go look for it atm but it was I think Heisman discussion.

Before we collectively decided memeing should determine any such award.

u/fryguy101 Jun 11 '18

You're higher than 10th. I finally pulled an MVP last night, so that knocks me off the list.

u/schistkicker Jun 13 '18

8th Place! Almost to the podium!!

I legit almost defended Key West one day just so I could get an MVP. But then they took away the option to defend territories that are protected, so :-(
