[GO] [Rules] Rank Restricted Games

[Kromious]

Deadbeating can be an awesome response to getting screwed by the game! If the game is out of reach for a player and he/she has no consolidation of territories and has been screwed by rolls continuously since, lets face it, the rolls are often geared to the benefit of one person (Conspiracy Theory) Then why bother. Add people to your ignore list if you don't like them or if you know they have deadbeated. Seriously you might as well be a segregationist thinking up crap like this. You probably think coffee is better then beer. Grow UP!

[Keebs2674]

Deadbeating is never a good response, whether you got screwed by the game or not. Intentional deadbeaters are losers.

That being said, I don't like this idea. If a noob deadbeats give him negative feedback. You shouldn't be able to kick him out of your game without first giving him a chance. Plus, if I join a game, why should I have to wait for the creator of the game to make his selections before the game starts? It just slows things down.

Have you ever set up a doubles/triples match and have chefs who don't know how to play join your team and lose you the game? I have

It would be good if you were able to specify the minimum rank you want your partner(s) to be when you initially set up the match.

Also if you want more points it would be good to also be able to specify a maximum rank.

We should have this for singles, too.

It's called premium, you set up a private game and invite who you want...

Maybe something like a majority vote of players if the deadbeat has a record (some percentage of games or something like that). That would let honorable newbies in and help reduce the impact of those who don't consider the games they sign up for as a commitment.

I'm a newbie and think newbies should not be penalized for being new but they should be if they show any tendency to deadbeat after a game or two.

the problem is, if they deadbeat, they generally are not coming back

[tomtorresson]

Anyone ever suggest the option of limiting the rank required to join a game (either max or min).

I love 2 player games...but get a little annoyed when a very low ranked player comes in, I win, and get ZERO points.

I'd love to be able to set an option where minimum score to enter the game I created is xxxx

My two cents.

Is there any way I could put all cooks on my ignore list? They are lousy players and I'm sick of their deadbeating and general crappiness.

[cena-rules]

yep





















































go through them 1 by 1 adding them

[apey]

that could take a very very long time

[lalaland]

Yes, it could take a very long time.

The reason you can't just ignore <insert group of people> by pushing one button, is that it greatly decreases the competitive nature of Conquer Club. It would also greatly divide the website...in a not so good way.

If you'd really like to ignore all the cooks, as mentioned, go through 1 by 1, and add them. And then update it daily. But the easier alternative is just to play the game.

Gives andy a banana* Good job.

[Fire Mario]

There also can be very good players being cooks because they they had a horrible losing streak.

[Sgt Alexo]

I've kinda been thinking about this for a while and I thought about some sort of function in game finder that should allow players to find opponents of equal rank or the desired rank of their choice.

I've realized that it could be a double edged sword but I still wanna throw it out there for you guys...

[Herakilla]

actually FINDING players of a certain rank would work in my opinion, its just that making a requirement of rank wouldnt

[Sgt Alexo]

yeah, the whole restriction thing didn't catch my interest as it would with other types of games
