yep, on the face of it it looks like a reasonable score but it's really not that flattering is it.
Take into consideration that I play ALL and mostly in singles games and not just the "elite" on CC. My risk vs gain ratio is extremely one sided, but ask me if I care.

When I first joined CC, Ithought i would win immediatley, because I am really good at Risk, but the rules here are so radically different than Risk, that for the first 10 games or so I had my ass handed to me a few times, before I got used to it. Now i win about 3 out of four games, though that's becuase I play mostly Doubles. Your winning percentage will be higher in Doubles games.
