Hello Pyros.
I have had some time to adjust to the new system of ratings at SZO. We are going to get 3 separate ladders. This is great news since the ratings would be as you said game specific. Rating skill is still a weak point. Not everyone plays balanced games or plays to win. Some are in it for fun aside from the occassional game for Win/Loss. This won't change. However, this new rating system proves to be quite different from all other ladders everywhere else. The ratings change from game to game not only because of your Game End Report of a win/loss/draw but additionally, from your opponents own ratings. This means that everyone's ratings are affected by all the aliases and all the games they have been playing against each other. Very new, very cool and very different.
Since they are also going to keep points from games it appears, it will still be possible for everyone to see how the senior players have amassed points from their own contributions gradually over time. In a sense this will still allow for an overall standing, except that there will no longer be an overall ladder.
Hope you come back to defend you 1st place rank. Viking and I are looking you over as potential roadkill for lunch supper and dinner. I rarely eat chicken though!! [hahahahah]
