Disassociate rank from number of games completed

Postby Mirak on Thu Sep 28, 2006 2:20 pm

Why does rank have to be associated with number of completed games...it seems to me that points alone should be the criteria

It keeps the luck factor out and the skill factor in. :)

You're only one rank behind. By the time I hit sergeant, I was nearly a captain. And I'm a lieutenant, but I have been within 4 points of major. Just keep playing, you'll get there if you're really that good. The points start getting a lot harder to get around 1300 points.
I was a major back when 1600 was major. Now that I'm back, I get to easily win a bunch of games to get my rank. Thank the 'tards here who suck at this game.

Only one rank behind? I would have been a major a few times already over my last 8 or 10 games if it wasn't for the fact that you need a certain amount of finished games. and as a hint: I'm not yet a captain.

Yeah yeah yeah, I've seen you on the list above me, staring at me and mocking me every time I lose a match, telling me that I'm not the greatest thing since sliced ham. My ego won't hear it though.

I was more saying that as someone with only 1200 points, he shouldn't be complaining yet. He's got a long, hard road ahead of him.

I wasn't the one who started my fanclub. I can't remember who it was, but it's out there.
