Talk:Besieged Server Records

Please update the Server Records chart on the main Besieged page. --Gahoo 06:28, 22 June 2006 (PDT)

Maybe there should be a section on server records, like the order each server first lost a besieged and to whom. Maybe every 2 or 3 months, this section, or maybe subpage could be updated by people from each server to give the win:loss ratio over time. I envision a table, like 2Q 06 3Q 06 4Q 06 1Q 07, etc, with rows for each server.

Here's what I've gathered so far:

Losses

Fenrir- 4/27/06 to Mamool Ja Savages (due to a maintenance)

Garuda- mid-May to Undead Swarm (source) --Ichthyos 14:48, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Alexander- 5/19/06 to Mamool Ja Savages (due to a maintenance)

Hades- 5/28/06 to Undead Swarm

Ifrit- 5/31/06 to Undead Swarm

Cerberus- 6/5/06 to Mamool Ja Savages

Midgardsormr- 6/7/06 to Mamool Ja Savages

Ragnarok- 6/7/06 to Undead Swarm

Bismarck- 6/8/06 to Mamool Ja Savages

Midgardsormr- 6/15/06 to Undead Swarm (source) --Ichthyos 14:51, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Shiva - 6/15/06 - to Mamool Ja Savages --Snojoex 15:54, 19 June 2006 (PDT) (NOTE: I can't remember exact day last week, but I am almost positive it was the 16th, anyone else can confirm these, please do.) - I managed to confirm it occurred on 6/15/06. --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 12:57, 21 June 2006 (PDT)

I was informed Shiva lost to the Mamool Ja, not the Trolls, as previously thought. --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 20:30, 23 June 2006 (PDT)

Bismarck- 6/18/06 to Undead Swarm (source) --Ichthyos 14:48, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Pandemonium- 6/18/06 to Undead Swarm (source) --Ichthyos 14:42, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Odin- 6/19/06 to Undead Swarm (due to a maintenance) (source) --Ichthyos 14:32, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Fairy- 6/19/06 to Troll Mercenaries (due to a maintenance) (source) --Ichthyos 15:18, 19 June 2006 (PDT).

Seraph- 6/??/06 to Undead Swarm

Remora- 6/22/06 to Undead Swarm []

Ifrit- 6/??/06 to ???????

Alexander- 6/26/06 to Mamool Ja Savages

Midgardsormr- 6/27/06 to Mamool Ja Savages (3rd loss so far)

Seraph- 6/28/06 to Undead Swarm (2nd loss, separate from previous Undead loss)

Fairy- 6/29/06 to ??????

Hades- 6/29/06 to Mamool Ja Savages (3rd loss so far)

Asura- 7/2/06 to Mamool Ja Savages source --Ichthyos 14:21, 3 July 2006 (PDT)

Kujata- 7/2/06 to ?????? source --Ichthyos 14:21, 3 July 2006 (PDT)

Excluding the 4 technical losses:

7 losses to Mamool Ja,

10 losses to Undead,

0 losses to Trolls,

3 data missing

Conclusion: the Undead are the most powerful, the Trolls completely suck--zoogelio-forgot-his-password 19:51, 29 June 2006 (PDT)

If people can update the missing info from Ifrit's 2nd loss and add new losses, that would be cool since I'm only going to be able to check forums for any server losses sporadically between now and late July. --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 17:22, 4 July 2006 (PDT)

Apparently, only Odin & Fairy lost during the June 19th Blitz. I still have yet to hear from Bahamut, Phoenix, Alexander, Ragnarok, Cerberus, Bismarck, Hades. --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 12:57, 21 June 2006 (PDT) - Shiva's sole loss was the 15th, as you confirmed, nothing on 6/19. --Snojoex 17:41, 21 June 2006 (PDT) I heard back from Bahamut, Alexander, Cerberus. Alexander lost

Any server not listed here apparently hasn't lost.

And before the July update, can players from each server get their win-loss numbers so we can have the record in case the update purges it. If updates purge it, then we can just post the win-loss ratios for the segments between updates (since FFXI regularly has 5 updates/year in Feb, April, July, Oct, Dec).

--zoogelio-forgot-his-password 18:32, 10 June 2006 (PDT) -- updated: --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 16:31, 16 June 2006 (PDT)

Booya! It just hit me, we have this column (in server order, not alphabetical: so Bahamut on top, Hades on bottom) and record the scores, the date listed and if scores are purged every update, we create a second table, one with the date stripped from it and just the final score listed. So, in essence, there would be 2 tables: the active besieged cycle and the historical cycle, both listed separately. And when an active cycle becomes a historic cycle, it will be moved from the active table into the historic table, forming a new column, and the active table becomes blank. That's if the scores are purged.

I recommend going ahead with what you outlined above. Server order is found on the server page on FFXI wiki or by checking the connection status of all servers on the POL website. (I'd like to see Atomos Server's score. I'm sure its 0-100 by now :D)    --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 17:08, 20 June 2006 (PDT)

Edit: I still would like to keep a running account of server losses: when and to whom at least until every server has lost once to all 3 armies.

How do you look up the win-loss record? Do you have to talk to an NPC or is it given somewhere on the regional map? The article doesn't mention this. Thanks. --Pinkfae 14:22, 23 June 2006 (PDT)

Talk to any Sanction guard, select "I have some questions..." > "Besieged." > "Empire's current state of defense." --Ichthyos 14:27, 23 June 2006 (PDT)

See Sanction. --Gahoo 14:29, 23 June 2006 (PDT)

--- Besieged timers reset after every maintenance. Expect 2 to 4 besieges within a short time of each hour once maintenance ends. -- [[User:Ayrlie|Ayrlie] 23:23, 23 June 2006 (CDT)

FFXIclopedia needs reporters for Alexander, Ifrit, Ragnarok, Pandemonium, Garuda, Cerberus, Kujata, and Seraph. Anyone who's a regular on here who can post the numbers for these servers?

And I'm wondering if it can be coordinated to get officially designated reporters for all 32 servers who can update the numbers for their server here weekly (whatever day of the week suits them best). And to get these same people to post the numbers the hours before the July update (just in case the numbers get purged with the update so we can have numbers that are collected at about the same time for all servers so the most they could be off is by 1). --zoogelio-forgot-his-password 13:11, 29 June 2006 (PDT)

Fairy apparently lost again today: http://ffxi.killvoid.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=125926 --Aurikasura 18:05, 29 June 2006 (PDT)
