2 @Brackman doesn't speak for me. Many people who use the MM seem to want some sort of league system. The fundamental blocker is that nobody has implemented it. Development time isn't being spent on things that are more important, there is just barely anyone working on infrastructure development. 2 @Brackman doesn't speak for me.

4 If anyone wants a league then they're going to have to find someone to make it. The league will inevitably be implemented however the implementer wishes, or not at all. The only useful thing that can come from this discussion is motivating someone to actually take on the task. 4 If anyone wants a league then they're going to have to find someone to make it.

6 The primary goal of the existing rating system appears to be matching accuracy. I disagree with this goal as I think people enjoying playing the game should be the primary goal. The developer of the ladder ( DeinFreund) seems to be inactive and uninterested in supporting it further or modifying it in any way that would compromise matching accuracy. So perhaps anyone taking on the task would be better off building a system from the ground up. 6 The primary goal of the existing rating system appears to be matching accuracy.

It works well for converging rapidly in teamgames, but people on the ladder want more transparency than it provides.

8 A previous thread with my proposal is here: http://zero-k.info/Forum/Thread/32336?postID=230904#230904 . It is a compromise between permanent and league rating. I'm not sure how many people want to dive into a league and get matched with anyone as the skill range can be quite broad. 8 A previous thread with my proposal is here: http://zero-k.info/Forum/Thread/32336?postID=230904#230904 .

10 I have not delved deep into infrastructure. I think I could hack together a full rating reset, since I remember part of the code having a start date for replay processing. Changing this date every three months seems viable. But there would be [i]nothing[/i] around it. No record of previous positions, no past ratings. 10 I have not delved deep into infrastructure.
