I think we should have a ladder per map and per game type. This leads to O(N^M) ladder number growth in the worst case, but it means we would get better balance[/quote]

It's exactly the opposite. I've done many tests for different ladder systems and having one single ladder combining all game modes, maps and specialties into one rating simply gives the best results for rating accuracy.

@GoogleFrog If there's only one ladder there's also no confusion in what ladder a game counts towards, they either count towards [i]the[/i] ladder, or not.

Reasons for having multiple ladders are purely aesthetic. It might be more relaxing to know your casual games don't count towards the MM ladder or that you get a fresh start for each planet wars. As long as people prefer having this peace of mind I don't mind maintaining multiple ladders, but it's definitely not for accuracy nor tangibility.

@Thread what are we actually discussing here? The first post isn't very clear to me. I'm just trying to show arguments for/against a single ladder vs the current system. @4hundred do you want a single ladder, why?

Arguments for only one Ladder...
