If he has enough points, he can just not fight and stay there. Thats what PsiPhi did, and is an exploit of the system.

I think there MIGHT be rules against doing that... But I don't know.

I didn't think that winning matches against people ranked lower than you, lost you points.
I thought it just gave you next to nothing...

And if someone ranked much lower than you beat you, the results on your score would be devastating.

Re: Ranking nonsense
ONCE AGAIN, IF YOU CAN SUGGEST SOMETHING BETTER, IT WILL BE CONSIDERED.

Stop simply saying we need changes. We know your thoughts, but for this kind of game, ELO is most likely the best existing mathematical ranking system. Please, don't make me repeat myself on this again.

It doesn't. You gain points, just not very many.

Did you even read what I wrote? Rank is not what's important, your score is what's important.
