All of the basic rules are pretty much covered if you read the existing rules. I.E. Unreported matches etc.

As far as the rest of what I consider Bullchit leave it out of here as I agree with others when they say "If it ain't broke don't fk wit it!" As this is a very small ladder right now I just don't see the need for a bunch of rules that may prevent others from joining. If they want tournys, I say go for it--Cases set it that way, but just play the tours in the designated tourny rooms.

If you start the BS of protecting ranks here (such as a rule regarding 1 vs 2 or such) all you will do is FURTHER stagnate the ladder. As this ladder is set up to play an op twice per day you would have to make it where the number 7 ranked player would NOT be able to play the number 1 rank before any 1 vs 2.

Think about it---Rank 7 wins, he moves to 4, then wins again which moves him to 2, thus knocking off the number 2 ranking. Is this what we want? I for one think NOT---wrong answer!

Now rethink it, here we go again, "Poor such and such, they worked so hard to get to rank 7 but look at what happened, the person ranked number 30 just bumped them by playing rank #1 twice and winning both!" LMFAO here!

Myself, I really care less about rank here or anywhere anymore as there has been too much federol, manipulation, cheating and just general SH!T about ranks! Just play and ENJOY! If being number one here or anywhere else playing a game out in cyberspace means most to you I suggest you double check life's priorities.

Certainly the idea of competition is what we are all here for, but try and draw a line SOMEWHERE and think about what matters most. Do you want YET another ladder full of animosity, ill will and bad feelings amonst players due to the infighting that goes on elsewhere? Once again, for myself anyway, I see this place as a fresh start where we can once more have FUN!

  I agree with you 100 percent kopa. Thanks for saying it. Personally, I just want to PLAY. Its a treat for me to enter the room and see someone there. I couldn't care less what rank they are, and most of the time I have no idea what rank I am. I enjoy the game and the people and my goal is to try to keep my win percentage above 50. At this point, I don't want to be ranked 1 because (honestly) I know I would mess up somewhere with the 1 vs 2 rules.

  I do realize that there are more people in the public rooms, but I do like the competitive spirit the ladder room has. I would just like to COMPETE more often. Play On!!

  OOPS this actually works for rank 8 also! Now would anyone REALLY care for a ladder set up with this type of if rank is their reason for playing?

  I agree whole heartedly this is a new ladder and a new begining a fresh start as you so aptly put it. I feel if we can all join forces and work together we can make this ladder a place of fun and enjoyment!

  : The only real RULE that I would like to see is this; Come on in and play more often and have FUN while you do it!

  : All of the basic rules are pretty much covered if you read the existing rules. I.E. Unreported matches etc.
