No. The challenge regulations are still being finalized, but basically you will only lose one point at a time, and challenging people will not gain you a point if they don`t play, currently. Fret not.

Thanks, so when i do a match and record, where do i send the k file? and if i record multiple matches, how to i tell them apart?
I wanna try! :3Done with finals, so I can play now! Who wants to? Don't be shy
I'm not the recording expert, I barely ever go on youtube, but if someone wants to volunteer to convert k files to youtube videos I can have users upload k files to the site and then people can either download the k file to watch themselves or download, convert to youtube, then upload for everyone. I'll add a krec upload feature and a download link for each match.
Yeah, I`ll do it. I like having the raw copy anyway.
Sure, do you have a skype? I can play later today if you can.
I'll have it leave the krec file available for download so if anyone wants a copy of it they can have it. When a video is uploaded a youtube logo appears next to the match to show it already has a video uploaded, so any match without the youtube logo next to it means it doesn't have a youtube video uploaded. Patience everyone, just leave it to me.
Yea I do, I'm extremely shy about voice chatting, so we can just instant message each other, I'll PM my username to you
I've sent 2 but I have 3 sets I still have to send him I've just been busy
Mixa we should chat!
Do you mind explaining? Have you registered a character for the rankings? After creating an account you need to register a character by clicking 'My Ranks' and and adding a character. This is designed to allow people to use multiple characters in the future.
Yes, I did that and verified that my name was on the list.
You must have been trying to do this while I was updating the site.
No. You must win three matches in a row, or win 4 matches with 1 loss in between, or win 5 with 2 etc.. to advance to D Tier and be "ranked"
So the rules are effectively the same with only one real change. Instead of assuming someone is mediocre and putting them in C tier, we assume that someone isn't good and put them in "Start" tier (basically a friendlier F tier). The reason for this is if everyone starts out in C tier, there are plenty of people that can take advantage of the noobs, and if a noob starts out getting pummeled and being shot down to D tier right away they can get discouraged. This also devalues the rankings since someone unworthy of B tier could bump themselves up to B tier by taking advantage of these noobs. With a Start tier you limit this. Noobs play noobs, not someone who has been hovering in C tier for months taking forever to get out and bullies them. The inception of a Start tier also opens up for more play because we will lift the point restriction for ranked matches and make it just a tier restriction. Since C tier isn't polluted with people that aren't C tier, a -2 can play a +2, but without a Start tier you can't tell if a +2 is really a +2 and a -2 is really a -2. The idea is everyone starts at 0 and moves up instead of everyone starting at 10 and moving up/down. Rankings should be progressive not regressive. If a noob is good they'll have no problem moving up to A tier, but if a noob is bad, egotistical mediocre players won't be able to take advantage of them and move themselves up to A tier. In any hierarchy system you work your way up from the bottom not start out in the middle and lose your way down (halo, mortal kombat 1p mode, the military, chutes and ladders). Its a ladder, you climb up it, not down it.
It would be better for everyone to start at Rank 0, and then have the ranks go for infinity in both directions
Do you have javascript enabled? What browser are you using? What is your OS?
In that case why have negative infinity? Why not scale negative infinity to 0 and have everything go up to 2 infinity? Why assume someone starting is better than someone already in the rankings? A noob should be considered equal to or less than everyone else. If the plan is to expedite the process of getting Boom up to SS tier then the rankings are biased and their legitimacy is questioned. "It looks silly to have Boom starting in D tier", when the new halo comes out and all the halo pros go to play, they don't start out at the top, they win and earn their ranks and in no time (because they're pros) they get to the top from 0, so he won't be there for long.
Yes to JS.
Send me a challenge. We will test this now.
