RANKING BATTLES , get yo rank up fo0. Friday 7:30 pm , -1 hour pacific, +0 mountain, +1 central, +2 eastern time.
It’s been a long time, I shouldn’t have left you…without a dope beat to step 2, step 2…
…Anyway, I been slakin’ so here is the return of Friday RanBats, come one, come all or…It won’t happen. Also if you don’t know what song the above was from shoot yourself. JK don’t do that.
I don’t like ranbats because they force us to play more than we can. I’d rather do periodic tourneys and keep the history, so we can keep track of players who participated, and when they did, we know how good they did.
For example, imagine an ST tourney for a ranbat, where I place first. Wow. But when you see, the players were me, a noob, the son of a noob and a troll. And then there is other tourney where there is J.Cole, Valle, Wolfe, Tech Monkey, Ganelon, immortal, and me. Than I place last. In the ranbats, because of my good performance on the first, I will be placed in the middle-top, but actually I don’t deserve that place.
So the history is better, you can miss one tourney without having to care with the points you didn’t earn and how you would do to catch up later.
Unless the ranbats are so few that everybody can schedule to attend. But either way, some good players can still miss some.
You have points for even attending the Ranbat (normally just one point). Then, based on how you place…they award points. It’s up to you how many points you wanna assign. By the end of the season, person with the most points is number 1 and so on. That’s how you’d ascertain rankings.
I’m with azis to be honest, but really I’d be in it either way just for the competition. Ranbats could be fun too, of course, never actually did them myself, but just talking about the theory here.
Weel, I don’t like it, but it is a good idea to heat ggpo’s SFA2.
Looks kinda complicated and long, unless we make it the japanese way: 1 match for the challenge, everything or nothing. Tourneys can be 2/3 and 3/5 for the finals.
Actually, I think this is a problem with my english, but don’t hurt to ask… How can Silver challenge Blue, Yellow, or Green? They are more than 5 points ahead.
And if it will be like this, one suggestion: No challenges after the tourney, as they always finish damn late. Make it only before.
