Game Rule On Top Ten Ladder Should Be Changed

I hope all will agree that the top ten ladder players should not have to play someone directly below them within 6 days or lose their spot. Thats why we have the challenge process. If you want to move up, then challenge the player. If he or she refuses, then you lose your position. GC should not bump players for not playing someone who has not asked to be played. Allow for more challenges and leave the top ten players to sort it out amoung themselves. We all work hard to get where we are at but only to be bumped by GC for inactivity? No can!!!

Once a player reaches the Top Ten on the Ladder, it's not quite the right time to relax and enjoy the scenery. On the contrary, the player's activity must increase -- there are other Ladder climbers who want to claim the spotlight.
The system of challenges notwithstanding, Top Ten players MUST play a rank-threatening game at least once in a 6-day period.
'Players in the Top Ten must play the rank one level directly below them at least once every 6 days. The Ladder ranking for a Top Ten player will be automatically reduced by 2 levels if within a 6-day period this player does not play with those who rank one level below. Such automatic rank reduction is reported as 'rank reduction due to Top Ten inactivity'.'

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
