That is certainly true but that aspect is the same in every multi-player game. What is not the same is someone dropping and someone else wanting to take the position and have it rated.
Thanks for bowing out of the rating request. It makes matters more simple now. Hope you aren't upset...but if you are, you have the golden opportunity to get even now... .

Re: SE4 Rating System
I think we should just wipe off Cybersol from Pair's rated players list. Only a few people have met other people yet so it would be too easy points.

Re: SE4 Rating System
Yes you are right, but I believe it is even more important in this game, as coordination in the team is much more needed than in other games. But I digress, as we agree on what to do with my suggestion so.
Why would I be upset? It was merely a suggestion rather than a request, in case it would have helped you. Of course, either it would solve the problem, or it would make matters that more complicated. And given your argument, it makes sense that I am not allowed to "take over" his rating. So I am perfectly fine with your decision, but I will still trying to convert this opportunity into a win. Wishful thinking on my part.

Re: SE4 Rating System
Cybersol had to prioritize RL over SEIV and has dropped out of the Pairs game.
The game is still early (turn 27) and he was well placed (we was partners). Getting victorypoints for his dropout will be the cheapest points ever awarded
So what does the rules say ?

Re: SE4 Rating System
If Slynky allows such a change, I could be rated instead of Cybersol, as I took over his Empire. I would not mind, this game being still in its early stages.

Re: SE4 Rating System
I was actually going to suggest just dropping Cybersol from the rating. I'd like to take victory points over Cybersol, but we never actually meet, so doesn't sound fair.
I'd be happy for Alneyan to count this as a rating game, since it is still early, he is taking over a rated empire and I can't see the game ending this year anyway, but this is just my 2 cents.

Re: SE4 Rating System
Site updated:
1 player removed due to drop
2 games completed *
2 games added
Some statistics:
13 games in progress
22 rated players **
20 players currently in rated game
As always, please review your interests and make sure I haven't forgotten (or made a mistake) anything.
* Although RexTorres and I never asked about our KOTH game being a rated game, I have decided the best way to represent scores would be to count our game for score. Hopefully, Rex won't be upset.
** Players having completed at least one rated game

Re: SE4 Rating System
I almost posted that you've made a mistake, my KOTH game isn't over yet  . But then I read KOTH thread and noticed Gecko has surrendered to me. I have to say it was a surprise.
