Mario Kart MB - SITE PROBLEMS

Evan Karter Offline I love YaBB 1G - SP1! fell 7536 times for marty Gender:	Re: SITE PROBLEMS Reply #25 - 07/24/04 at 14:54:50 anyone with weaker prs can improve their rank much faster than someone with stronger prs. In that, I belive the people who run the MOTW should favor higher-ranked karters and not just who make the best improvement.

However you've got to encourage other karts how have made massive progress further down the field sometimes. Some people will never rival the "natural" karters & gamers like penev, grard. Dave

As for the awards going to lower ranked players....I think it's good, especially if they improve a lot. I know that it's harder to improve at the top of the charts, but it's not ridiculously harder. If someone in the top 25 had had there current times 3 or 4 months ago they would have been in the top 5. So you have to take into account that it's also constantly getting harder for the lower ranked ppl aswell since all those times are getting better at a faster rate.

What if somebody doesn't send his times in for 4 weeks or more and then makes massive improvement from 100th to 40th. Does he deserve an award for that?

(Now somebody might say that it is easy to verify that he has been using 4 weeks for those times and not just particularly 1 week he posts them in, but I guess most of us know how easy it is to send in small fake improvements while your real times are better and then make a massive improvement.)

That better!

I'm just making excuses for my crap times. If i make myself think that you top guys have more natural gaming ability than me then it's easier to take being down in 33 or whatever place. Roll Eyes

No, ppl that hoard their times shouldn't be given anything. For one, there's no way of knowing how long they've been hoarding for. And two, it's inconsiderate and disrespectful to others to hoard.

Right on Matt. I think people with worse ranks should be recognized in the news at least but not nesisarily (yes, a misspelled word, but my brain just froze up) get an award. This message would have been nice on the news:

"And David Lalo moves from 112th to 88th in just one week with the site!"

And no, I was NOT hoarding, my movement was the result of playing MKDD non-stop for 3 days to try and get in the top 100. Of course, I did a little better than that Wink
