:/
((Wins * 3) + (Draws * 30) + Strength + Staming + Dexterity)


whats the point having number of fights lost in the league table if it doesn`t mean anything, a lot of people who are top of the league have a poor record of matches lost and it doesn`t feel fair for them to be so high in the league, i think it would be better if you take away the number of matches you lost from your original score

it seems from the above formula that to be ranked the highest or be in the hall of fame you need to be at your computer everyday challenging people and recieving points even though you might end up loosing all your matches

now i think the formula below is a lot better
((Wins * 3) + (Draws * 2) + Strength + Staming + Dexterity) - (matches lost) = final score

If losing mean`t more than just giving your opponent a win, there`d be more refused matches, imho.

Then punish half the amount of the lose penalty for refusing a fight. Then it means there`s not that much of a benefit to refusing, but still leaves the option open in case you get a ludicrous challenge (maybe remove the penalty for refusal if the challenger has significantly higher stats making the match a given).

It does seem silly that someone with massive losses can rank higher than someone with very few and a similar number of wins.

Oh I dunno, there are no points deducted for losing in football? :)

Ah, but everyone plays the same number of matches in football - if that were the case here, I`d agree it was fair...

Maybe. :)

But I still think it encourages people to refuse more fights! :)
