Is merging multiple clips allowed? The lag has been playing havoc with many of us and it's been very difficult to coordinate one single long shot.

Cutting straight to the point, they became reporters once for a reason - their writing skills are at a whole new level. It takes the wind right out of the sails for a casual participant. But it would be unfair to bar ex-staff from contests. So, meh. I'm not happy with the situation, but I don't have any right to complain either. I think there's a bit of jealousy deep down inside of me that's egging me on to say this, but I'm willing to forgive myself because I'm regretfully human. There's also a part of me that speaks up when I see tilted scales. I'd like to acknowledge that here as well.

Someone should start a tanki rehab program. So much scope. :D

Supplies and skill in the same line? Some people are gonna get triggered.

I could totally relate to the combos I use :P

Why though? EDIT: If this topic gets merged to another ideas topic, and I am unaware of the transition, what I said stands nullified.

Now you've done it :excl:

The lag is horrible right now. Can't play.

Got a date with my M4 Viking :D

ROFLMAO :lol: :D

Lol. Can't tell if your being sarcastic or not XD but, okay.

I think that is not the purpose of ratings. Dexterity, mental clarity and responsiveness - things I think make up skill, can't be captured in numerical terms. Ratings have been introduced with the aim of segregating players into groups that can avoid playing with each other (given an option) - to reduce the problem with mults in battles. I agree to an extent with what you say on sorting though. Because currently it looks like all the top players are legends (yes that makes sense, BUT) it would make more sense to me if the scope of comparison was restricted to one rank or a number of ranks rather than the whole spectrum - recruit to legend. Do you think the frequency could be reduced to once a day?

IMHO, this needs to be sorted by rank.

How many play Rio - a hotspot for flippers.

That 90 degree blooper XD

XD P.s. You're cracking me up while barking up the wrong tree.

Should we be looking for the scenario when you get a cry/exp as well as k/d ratio greater than what is currently listed against you in the OP? - in which case your rating could potentially increase? Just a theory- Your delta k/d= 2.5-1.62 --> 250-162= +88 Your delta cry/exp= 1.73-1.1 --> 173-110= -63 Delta total = 88-63 = 25 Final rating ---> 997793 - 25 = 997768

So much information, thoughts and effort lost to the void... void seems like an apt feeling now.

Heads up. They seem to be deducing the player "ratings" from this.

Thanks for sharing. So is this what cedric meant when he said even winning a battle can cause the rating to slide- i.e. when the crystal payouts from battlefunds is less than your score? What about rank up bonuses, are they counted? Anyone ranking soon? Could it also mean that people who stay and fight a battle to it's finish on the losing side are penalized more?

@Mr.Aced it.

I didn't mean anyone on the list here in particular :P we just want a general idea. Because this list is a WIP, constantly updated - obviously there are going to be many players in between that don't visit the forum.

It's nice that people share their ratings, even if it doesn't mean much to them, it makes a picture for the community. In this case, the aim is was to shed more light on the formula. So are all the people in the top ten buyers?

7663 P.s. Well, it fluctuates...
