I dont like the idea of ratings being reseted, this will only affect top players...
Take for example Daut, he has alot of nicks 2300+, he will have to play with all his nicknames if he dont wanna get the nick reseted? nick that he made big effort to play alot of games and get that rated? same apply to Tim that has alot of nicks he dont use anymore but he still made effort to get that rating, when u get 2k2+ rating there is rly few players to play with, so what they're gona do? Start using 2k6 nickname to play 18x team games?
well i think part of the reason that there is that wide of a gap is the amount of players in that skill range who, when they reach a certain rating, make a new account. if they all used one or maybe two the disparity wouldnt be so great. yes daut would still be #1 and very high, but the ladder/rating system is designed to be this way, you are supposed to get more vs a top guy. due to everyone wanting to get the same each time, we have the situation we have now
