Person335 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Since my last statistic board was a semi-huge hit, I decided to do one more, this time dealing with gender ratios and team structures (# of defenders, forwards, formation type, etc). Originally they were about to be two separate boards. But in the end, I decided to combine the two, to reduce constant switching back and forth. Genders Team - # Male | # Female Altador - 4 | 1 Brightvale - 4 | 1 Darigan Citadel - 4 | 1 Faerieland - 2 | 3 Haunted Woods - 5 | 0 Kiko Lake - 5 | 0 Krawk Island - 3 | 2 Kreludor - 3 | 2 Lost Desert - 3 | 2 Maraqua - 5 | 0 Meridell - 4 | 1 Moltara - 3 | 2 Mystery Island - 4 | 1 Roo Island - 3 | 2 Shenkuu - 3 | 2 Terror Mountain - 3 | 2 Tyrannia - 3 | 2 Virtupets - 3 | 2 TOTAL 64 ♂ | 26 ♀ 13 Captains are Male | 5 Captains are Female 26 males are Forwards | 11 females are Forwards 24 males are Defenders | 11 females are Defenders 14 males are Goalies | 4 females are Goalies Trivia: There are no pure female teams. The closes to an all-female team is Faerieland, with 3 females out of 5 positions There are 3 absolute male teams: Haunted Woods, Maraqua, and Kiko Lake The most popular male:female ratio is 3 ♂ to 2 ♀ There is the same number of female defenders as there are female forwards Structure Formation (fwd+def) | # of Teams | Teams that take this formation 1+3 | 3 | AT HW MQ 2+2 | 11 | BV DC FL KD KI SK LD RI VP MT 3+1 | 4 | MD MI TM TY Total # of Forwards = 37 Total # of Defenders = 35 Total # of Goalies = 18 (duh) Captains that are... Forwards = 11 Defenders = 5 Goalies = 2 Trivia: The most successful formation has been the 2+2, with 4 champions structured like this (Darigan Citadel, Roo Island, Krawk Island, Lost Desert) The second-most successful formation is the 1+3, with only 1 champion (Haunted Woods) A 3+1 team has yet to win an Altador Cup So yeah. Leave a comment if you see any mistake. If you find something else, please tell me! I want this list to be as informative as possible. Thanks for reading the list. I appreciate you just by looking at it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureTXTurkey Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I really love these lists Person335! I've always asked myself these questions, but was too lazy to gather the info. I said it in the other topic, but I'll say it here too...I think it's super lame that there are three all male teams. I mean, I can understand it in theory... Like if a team was all male because of it's back story or the land it represented, but if you aren't going to have an all female teams than it's just lame. I'm not a hardcore feminist or anything, and I wouldn't think the AC cup was worth getting rilled up about either way, but it does strike me as odd. It's just that Neopets is usually so good about representing the genders equally, and has a nice tradition of strong female characters and leaders.

I love making these lists as well (because I'm a math nerd ). But you have a point. There should be an equal amount, not one gender almost twice as much as the other. When I was making this list, I was thinking that Kiko Lake would have at least one female. Turns out they didn't. Though Maraqua did have a female in previous years, but now she's gone (from what I hear, she disappeared :O). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Though Maraqua did have a female in previous years, but now she's gone (from what I hear, she disappeared ). - LD got rid of her in an effort to toss LAMElle to MQ, but it backfired because we ended up with Rhee (who isn't all that bad actually) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 In reality it would be like that... there are fewer female athletes. However, Im not sure if the strength issue applies to neopets- I would expect them to even it out anyway. And how about Moltara (arguably the least girly land of all) has girls but some teams dont have any?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeló Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Antola is the only player who changed gender ... lol ... we used to have 3 girls now they're 2 ... but it was really weird :worried: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MELioristic Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 What do you mean Changed gender? Just like, became a boy one day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luciana Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Antola's gender was under a lot of debate before TNT officially assigned genders to all the Altador cup team members. First they claimed Antola was female but then they said she turned male when she encountered a strange potion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgJu Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 If they do make an all-female team to counter some of the testosterone, I hope they don't take the easy way out and make it Faerieland (pink and frilly and girly? Let's have girls!) I'd wouldn't mind seeing an all-female Terror Mountain or maybe a team of girl ninjas on Shenkuu! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbbug132 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I was just thinking the other day that the AC seemed really male-dominated. Guess I was right. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voteforpedro333 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Well it seems to make sense that the Haunted Woods would be an all male team, but then you'd think Darigan would be all male too. Interesting. And yay for goalie captains! LD and KI just rock like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoEternal Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I don't know why they list the genders at all. I only learned this week that the Buzz on DC is female. You really can't tell (most of the time) just from looking, and I don't see how it could factor in to performance since they're just data. If they were going to make a point of being all gender-equal, I would understand. But this is kind of insulting. I have no idea what they were thinking.

jonathanjoseph99 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Antola is the only player who changed gender ... lol ... we used to have 3 girls now they're 2 ... but it was really weird Yup. I actually thought Antola was a girl. During the game, she he looks like a girl. But in the pictures she he looks like a boy. I was actually shocked when I noticed that Antola was a boy. I keep on reading the description of the SK team and read "female" as "male". XD. Antola's gender was under a lot of debate before TNT officially assigned genders to all the Altador cup team members. First they claimed Antola was female but then they said she turned male when she encountered a strange potion. So Antola drank a potion? o.O or maybe a team of girl ninjas on Shenkuu! That would be cool. :DD I planned on switching to Terror Mountain or Altador next year after spending 5 years with SK. But.. If that happens.. or If a new player joins Shenkuu (like Dorina. XD) or I plan on being MORE loyal. Then I'll stick with SK. :DDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I'd like to see an all-female team in a really masculine colour, like Tyrannia or Darigan Citadel, and vice versa. It really is ridiculous that there isn't one all-female team when there's three all-males. (I really hate cliches and stereotypes, hence why I'm kinda against the idea of making Faerieland an all-girls' team) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgJu Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 (I really hate cliches and stereotypes, hence why I'm kinda against the idea of making Faerieland an all-girls' team) I said pretty much the same thing up above. It would be too easy to make Faerieland an all-girl team cuz of the stereotypical pink and purple and fairy motif. I still say I'd like to see an all-female ninja team for Shenkuu.
