One problem I'm worried about - how to start the ranking/challenging/playing
I guess..
First we'll play atleast one or two rounds to get everyone on the ladder...
We'll have 34 players who have no points and no ranks so we need to get them some points and ranks... to do that I say we have 17 players challenge 17 other players... since there is no difference in rank, then there will be no bonus points and I also don't think we should go below 0 so no subtraction of points either.
This will results in 17 players who won and 17 players who lost. Now we can either start the league or do this ONE more time to get it split up a bit more. Then put everyone on the ladder and begin following this league as stated by the rules.
-------------------------------------------------------
As far as the scoring goes that THRICE disagrees with we could do the following:
A win = 5 points plus bonus if the player beats a higher ranked player.
A loss = -3 plus minus bonus if the player loses to a lower ranked player.
IE - Cloud is ranked 5, frooty is ranked 3.
* Cloud wins he gets 7 points (5 points + 2points bonus)
* Cloud loses he gets -3 points.
* Frooty wins he gets 5 points
* Frooty loses he gets -5 points (-3 points for loss - 2points bonus)
Does that sound good or no?
