Zkill isn't accurate with most of its stats though due to people not putting their APIs onto it. Hope this assists you in your argument.

So it's only acceptably accurate if ~the good guys~ are on top?

Lets all agree that Kills can be difficult based on fittings, or easy based on getting the drop on people and leave it there.

Also, I can kill you with my brain.
If PL was so :airquote: elite peeveepee :airquote: wouldn't a requirement then be to put an api on zkill so that it was always up to date vs other alliances like GSF. That is, if zkill still required api keys to pull data, though I personally have had loss-mails from characters I know I have not added to zkill show up that were killed by npcs or when I shot myself with another non-registered on zkill character. The way it looks now, PL lost in kills by almost 1300, is claiming "we didn't care in May, now we care" and that "zkill is broken, our special boards are what count". Get out of here with your special-ness.

That's because other people on the kill, or the victims, have their APIs on the site.

Be it a corp API or a individual player API.

Edit - You can find out whose API is in Zkill by the little green checkmark that says "API Verified." You have to go to the Corp & Alliance page separately.

For example: Neither HVAC Repairman's API, GoonWaffe, nor GoonSwarm Federations API isn't on Zkill, but GSF's Kriegsmarinewerft's corp API is. So if HVAC was involved in a kill with a dude from Kriegsmarinewerft, then that's where the API for that kill would come from.

goonwaffe API is put into zkillboard, so goonwaffe's kills and losses automatically go into zkillboard

thats why i had to leave before i went gently caress goons for a little bit, because anti-gankers were following me based on my kills and losses that automatically showed up on zkill.

It was a bit frustrating for me while ganking because even my single ibis losses when pre-pulling concord would be on zkill within minutes.

Bad dodge. Zkill sees enough general use amongst the nullsec/lowsec set that the odds of somebody having their API in it (Via corp/alliance/individual) for any given fight with more than 20 people in it is pretty loving good. Is it perfect? No. There will always be edge cases, but when throwing around unsubstiated "We're doing this better than you neener neener" posts into the void, retorting with a fairly accurate even though it misses the edge cases and saying "Nuh uh, neener neener" is perfectly acceptable.

Nerd.

I like my way better. Grab a Taranis fly around and engage whatever you see, no matter what it is.
There's no adrenaline rush like tackling a balghorn on a gate knowing full well you have no support anywhere nearby.
Once you're back in station, you grab another one and repeat the process.
