Not accepting challenge Posted by Peggrhead Feb 11 2023 11:43AM Iâm new to this site and would like to know why people have a request to play but when I accept it they donât play, are they afraid of losing too many points because Iâm rated lower ? Yes Posted by Bones (TD) Feb 14 2023 11:06PM You will find this to be the case. Learn to enjoy playing on this site for the fun of the game or become a VIP tix player for the real competition. Don't take points too seriously. Some people covet them, but they are not really an indication of skill level. Have Fun Mate! Ratings Posted by gjamies1 Feb 19 2023 9:56AM Get rid of them and this site would be infinitely better. I had a bad run and at one time dropped to just above the 1200 mark. It became harder an harder to play anyone. The rating system ruined another site which eventually stopped and I am sure there are more "members" on here who have left for the same reason. When I study the high ratings and look at their play statistics, it baffles me how they are rated so high. Just over the 50% win rate and a rating of over 2300. So, in answer to Bones, you can't have fun if its not possible to play and although I do occasionally play for Tix, not everyone wants to. Ratings used in Tournaments Posted by KyllerB (VIP) Mar 1 2023 12:29PM Curious, are ratings used by GC to set the pairings in a tournament? If so, it may explain why they are still part of a players profile. Ratings Posted by Bee_Mann Mar 3 2023 10:40PM I agree. The rating are useless. I donât understand how they work. It should be based on percentage wins. Points Posted by skunk61 Mar 14 2023 3:38PM I always play within 100 points only. There is always plenty of players to play with this parameter. Skunk61 Posted by gjamies1 Mar 16 2023 9:35AM Why only 100 points? This subject about ratings is one of the most discussed items on this forum, and it would appear very few are in favour of the system and many, like myself, would prefer a percentage win but unsure if this could be adopted within the software of GC. Maybe an answer by the Mods on GC. RATINGS in tourneys and other Posted by ChrisCrossed (moderator) Mar 19 2023 1:44PM Hi Kyler. The ratings are NOT used to determine tournament pairings... It is totally random programming via the computers running the tourneys. It is a shame that players pay so much attention to the ratings when in main.... I know mine have gone way up and way down.. but it has not changed that fact that I might still be a good player, just indicated a run of defeats, or wins. I find the ratings have nothing to do with player ability. Agree with others about ratings Posted by SatchCho Mar 22 2023 1:33AM Just get rid of them. It adds nothing to the game, and people that are hung up on ratingâs wonât play lower ranked players because it may negatively affect their rating. Besides the way they are set up is a total joke. |
