Ratings reductions for 'excessively selective' play Posted by webmaster (moderator) Oct 4 2017 10:02AM We have reduced all of the unreasonably high ratings that were achieved by excessively selective play. One needs to play all players with all ratings - both high and low. Some ratings may also have received an unreasonable boost if one played and won against those players who artificially boosted their ratings. Unreasonably high ratings were decreased across the board for all players. ratings Posted by KymB (VIP) Oct 5 2017 1:17AM Finally!!! some players think they are all that and a bag of chips... Ha Ha!! ratintgs Posted by KymB (VIP) Oct 8 2017 2:06AM Well i guess i am not a fan among players now, They are mad at me that i decided with you.

Crib should be fun. i was lucky thAT i HAD 2 DAD'S and my x to teach me.., I love crib! High rankings Posted by xeasygoin Oct 10 2017 9:14AM Hi. Ive never achieved a high rank but have no problem with players that have. It only takes a few seconds to realize that they are waiting for a similar rating to play so just move on. I always end up getting a game within a few minutes, its the high ratings that have to wait forever. Whats the point of having ratings if you cant enjoy it the way you want to. I think it would be impossible to reach the scores which you allow it to go to unless you played selectively so why have rankings if, as far as a lot of people are concerned, they dont matter? Meant in the politest way. Thank you. Difference between rankings and ratings Posted by webmaster (moderator) Oct 10 2017 9:24AM We only took away all excessively high ratings that reached ridiculous heights not supported by the intrinsic skill range differences in their respective games. Also, theres a difference between a players ranking and a players rating. A player can be ranked as #1, 2, etc. for example in our monthly Ladder competitions that offer prizes for 10 top ranked players. There are multiple ways to compete - (a) compete on the ever growing numerically expressed artificial number that is supposed to represent skill or (b) compete for prizes and spots in monthly Ladder competitions or (c) become a $Ticket player and compete for $Tickets. xeasygoin Posted by jethrotulll (VIP) Oct 11 2017 1:59AM Become a tix player and those ratings will no longer mean anything to you Posted by OnTheCape400 Nov 17 2017 8:05PM I now know that "invite all" does not mean all are invited to join a game. Are ratings all that important that we've lost touch with what Cribbage is all about, such as being a card game to be enjoyed? Over and out... ratings Posted by KymB (VIP) Nov 19 2017 1:17AM On the Cape....Bravo I so agree. Cribbage is meant to be fun! ok a challenge is a challenge. I was lucky to have my Dad, Step Father, x-husband, Father in law, and many others to ENJOY playing cribbage with me Let's get back to the basics and have FUN! |
