lol i just hope this doesnt get ****ed up, and i hope to know when this is actually implemented lol i have a few nicks i dont use much but they are all 1750-1850
Bolt, thanks for this. I like your style. But I think you should consider that out of all these comments, no one has said that 10 days is too long...Hi Guys,
I am a Voobly AoM:TT moderator and one of the backers of this system being implemented. I felt like I should put to rest one of the major complaints about the system from this thread.
"I don't play this game 24/7 arguement"
I feel that some numbers need to be explored so I did some quick maths and came up with this in response to the
Decay is 10 days long; 10 days is 240 hours. A game might take 30 mins to finish. Therefore you're spending 1/480th of your time every 10 days playing a rated game to not decay.
To further delve into the minority of the decay at 20 points every 10 days... at 2k rating it will take you 100 days of inactivity to decay to 1800... that's almost a third of a year! And to return to 2k (which should be relatively easy if you're still at that level) at 30 mins a game (winning 20 points a game) would take 5 hours... and that's assuming all your games go long, I know for a fact that games on AoT rarely go past the 20 minute mark and are often over by the 12 minute mark when skill levels are substantially different... and I'm sure AoC would be similar.
Hopefully this eases this concern,
BoIt

I read this like 3 times, and i dont find any kind of logic .if this decay system's primary goal is to offer a more accurate ranking ladder, it's a failed enterprise before even being implemented.
Both Chris and Daut, for example, can go months without playing a game, and under this decay system they would lose something like a billion points (or at least be reduced to 1800). This would allow room for 2.3k players to rise to a top 10 ranking, and yet, these players would NOT represent a more accurate ladder in terms of who is better than whom.
i get it, people like Alive, his soul rest in peace, needs to be KO'd off the ladder, but let's not pretend the goal of this is to give a more accurate depiction of skill level or ability.
(i agree with the overwhelming majority of people who think 10 days is too short)

Thats what im saying too, 11.career? rlx this is game and i said that put the max rated reached in the profile so the problem is fixed for guys that stop playing aoc and they did their best long time ago.
yeahh lets put pele and maradona nomination to best football player again! , im sure not very clever, but i not ****** like u.SUD_Elixir and timtim not very clever :roll:
The difference is that pele or maradona won't be able to play at the top level. Now do you get it?yeahh lets put pele and maradona nomination to best football player again! , im sure not very clever, but i not ****** like u.SUD_Elixir and timtim not very clever :roll:
