Hi gmiller,
I thought of a ranking like the one implemented on FICS. There, if one types "best", the slowchess players with the highest ratings would be displayed; and by typing "rank", the players with a similar rating would be displayed. I think this would simplify finding game partners; and one could challenge players with a similar rating in order to play instructive games.
Greetings, David/dcroll
Player Rankings
"All Ratings" should be named "Some Ratings&q
That does not answer my question. The list starts with guys that haven't been active since November 2004 - how could one challenge such a player? - and it ends with place 2000, which names "hinrich", having a 1641 points rating. What about the weaker players who would like to play against below-1500 opponents?
When I saw your rating of 2801 points... Surely YOU don't suffer from the problem I have!
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
question:
why you want to challenge a specific person instead to start a game with just the elo you want to play?
suggestion:
if you use the 'find high rate games' option u can choose which elo bracket you like from 0 to 2600, there you will find active players, just refresh several time as is 'random' search
1. By using "find high rated games", among 50 games there were only a few games with a 1500-player when a 500-points cutoff was used. Finding people this way really is a hassle. This could be improved with "Find games with a ratings average vom xxx to yyy" or something.
2. When posting a match offer, there are very rarely weak players entering the match. If I set the boundaries to 0/9999, the opponents are found very quicky, but I had to remove requests like 0/1000 because there seem to be no players in this range.
