I would be 23844 -(34085 - 6408 -19708 ) / 2 = 7969?

Dude... I play A LOT of Commander, but I seriously doubt I have waxed nearly EIGHT THOUSAND DUDES WITH ARTY.

Have I done the math wrong?

Yes, your result should read 7,938!

To explain my theory:

The global score is the correct sum of all the points we ever got. (as long as reported)

Team score is everything which is not a kill and done while not commanding.

Commander score is the third concrete value we have.

Only the combat score is nothing real but the number of kills * 2.

So if you take the global score, substract the team and the commander scores, you will get the "true combat score". Devide it by two and you should see all the kills (any type) you have done while not commanding.

Compare this number of kills to the reported total and you should see the "commander kills" which include ari but also any other type of kill (f.e. "commanding" from a plane ...)

First off I have about 2000 commander kills.

second your "Theory" is way off wack. I am missing over 7000 pts because of commander. my total score is different from my global score.

3rd by doing your equation I have over 3700 artillery kills.
an easier way to do your equation would be (combat - global +teamwork + command)/2=arty kills

ok I have been doing lots of thinking on this. It makes sense now. I am missing something like 7500 or so points from my global score. Taking your equation and remove the /2 and you get the points yoru missing as commander. Dividing by 2 gives you your number of kills. So in essance whenever you kill someone with artillery you actually LOSE points from your global score. I noticed that my points missing is never an odd number but always even thus you can divide by 2 (which is how many points you get for arty kill). However the problem lies in pre 1.03 patch arty used to count for points and now it doesnt so could I have actually killed more than 3700 people with artillery but because of pre 1.03 it wont show?

what do you guys think of this as where our lost points are?

oh and that would be a lowly 42kills/hr artillery.

I guess I never really thought about it. But since I don't have to command anymore I'll make them back up
