There were 4 proper claimable statues, Darwoth held one of the better ones up until the very end.
Good statues to hold
Statue of Piety -> Darwoth up until the end
Statue of Frugality -> Russians initially but town bell destroyed and taken over last week by us
Statue of Sobriety -> held by us from the 2nd week
Mediocre statue to hold
Statue of Diligence -> Tribe players up until the end
Bad statue to hold
Statue of Community -> Worst statue to claim, nearly impossible to properly claim
Public statue
Statue of Family -> Absolute impossible to claim
So as far relevance goes, he actually influenced the duration of the expedition and this could only be said about three other groups which is us, the Russians and ex-tribe players. If he had seriously defended his base it would had likely been way more of a challenge compared to the UN/Commies efforts as a single individual.
