Link to Field ratio
So I did a thing.
I brought my link to field ratio to 1. No YOLO links ever, only following my fieldplans, re-throwing them from an anchor when it gets taken out, or linking for a purpose, During double AP events I flip field my own fields for more AP, also bringing up my link to field ratio.
What's your ratio like?

PS I never used a field engine. In fact I have never flipped my own fields unless I needed to clear a spam link from someone else.
Good , i think 😁
I read to fast, all time you mean . I'm working on it. Used to be a difference of 2000. Indeed flipped my anchors too with this event and using sbuls too
Impressive! You’re playing jump rope with the diagonal :)
Nice. I wish people would follow the glyph sequence more, haha.

No YOLOs? Whats the fun in that?? They often lead to bigger fields. Doing the same fields over and over is very boring.
Obviously our game play style is quite opposite..lol.
My present F/L-ratio is 1.044 😎
No Jarvis involved, no field engines. Just dedicated game play, purposeful decay of anchors and ENL players who like AP, but don't have the time to take the whole thing down 😀
With the current state of the game, yolo’s tend to stay in place for a while, blocking field ops. I often make bigger fields, but always plan ahead when doing so. Almost never use yolo’s as a baseline.
Impressive! Seems like you fan field a lot too ;)
Ah, this is why we see it differently. You're playing offense. I enjoy playing defense. So if we take that information and now apply it to the graph, It really is a defense-to-offense ratio.
It took me three months to get my F/L ratio to 1.0. It keeps growing...
These are the stats from darkman4u (Top 100 AP, All Platinum Club)
Disagree. Offense means throwing blockers a lot, which are singular links mostly, and are not used to create links. I do agree that it requires a different playstyle. In any case, more builder than destroyer :)
Nice! :) Great effort.
Great job! I have slowly been improving my F/L ratio also:
Nice! We need a badge for that.
Haha, how would that work, would the badge be taken away once you drop underneath 1.0 ratio? :P
A ratio over 1.0 is cool and all, but at that rate you'll never get connector onyx. A 0.4 ratio is where it's at so you can get Mind Controller onyx on the same throw as Connector onyx. #ifitshowsitthrows
Contemplate chaos before link.
This is the beauty of Ingress. You can have several goals, play styles, habits. Some like defense, some like offense. Some like Anomalies, some like walking banners. Others just like farming with friends whilst enjoying a beer.
I've been playing since May 2013 back when we didn't have glyph hacking or the ability to hack more than one key at a time. For a while if you wanted more than one key, you would have to drop your current key(s) on the ground where anyone nearby could take them!
After pushing to complete a few easier onyx badges, I recently finished up that damn connector badge. I'm roughly 2:1 ratio, but based on prior game play and not doing fan fielding or an AP generator or such, I think my ratio is pretty darn good. Much better than it used to be before I started working on my Controller badge.
Considering the key hacking disadvantage in the beginning, you did really well! 2:1 ratio is still pretty impressive, good job!
Oh I know I'll never get Connector onyx. Agent-stats predicts it in the year 2064! To be honest though, I'll probably never get Mind Controller onyx either. I don't have the time or patience these days to do the required amount of micro-fielding.
And here we are today. It has become equal 😛
Awesome!
