LOL,
Its 3.30 in the morning over here, let a poor guy sleep.

Seriously, I would love to play you again, but I have just challenged Slynky to a rematch (full tech game) on a special map. He has first choice for that game (its already on PBW). If he declines, your next in line

I'll post the details on the game in a bit (then I go to bed, I really need my beautysleep)

It's a wicked game, Geo! I got lucky (I think). I knew he was out-colonizing me, so I only had one choice...build warships and make the colony count even again (if I could). I think people know I'm a bit methodical and defensive...perhaps it caught Primitive off guard to have me go on the offensive.

I was a good game and had good anticipation level.

Site updated:

Welcome to the SE4 Ratings system, Alneyan!

Three game results posted.
Two games added.

11 Games in progress.
21 players being rated.
27 players in the system (still waiting on Stone Mill and DavidG to join )

Reminder: Check this thread after joining a rated game or completing one to make sure your results have been posted. It usually happens within 24 hours of reporting.

Remember, this rating system is a fair estimate (I say estimate because luck sometimes plays a part of the outcome) of one's ability in a great game. A player can have fun AND see how well they stack up. After all, aren't we all out to have fun AND see how good we are?

Note for all Ratings members:

I've added my email address below to make it easier to report Ratings matters (instead of having to find it or go to the Ratings site).

Cheers!

Game completion (Parabolize vs Deccan)

Ratings (boring) stats:

Site has nearly 700 hits. Shows (at least) some interest.

*Sigh*. Now I'm officially the worst player in the game.

Slynky,

Three suggestions.

First, instead of all new people showing on the list as ranking of 1000, put them at the bottom of the list and label them as unranked. Personally I think someone like Deccan or myself that have earned our Ratings, low as they may be, deserve to be placed above someone who hasn't recorded a score yet.

Secondly, how about listing the won loss record somewhere. It's not as important as the rating score, but it might be nice to see.

Finally it would be cool to have a record on the site somewhere of recorded games. Who beat who, that sort of thing. Like the Koth page has.
