Let's see if we can get a pente ladder going. As creator, I will be admin; if you want to be admin, i will let the first 2 people who ask be my co-admins if they prove themselves.
For now, the ladder rankings will be the current active pente rankings on DSG. I will post them.
For those of you who don't know how the ladder system works, here is a refresher:
1. Find an opponent. Ask them if they want to play a ladder match. If they accept, play until one of you wins a SET. A set is 2 games, one as black and one as white.To win a set, you must win both games. The LOSER of the set then reports the loss to me via a post on this thread or a message.
2. -If a higher ranked player beats a lower ranked player, no change. -If a lower ranked player beats a higher ranked player, he takes the higher ranked player's rank, pushing him and everyone else between them down one rank. -If a player beats someone ranked directly above him, they switch ranks. -If an unranked player beats a ranked, he becomes ranked at the bottom of the ladder, and the loser does not move. -If an unranked player beats an unranked player, they both become ranked at the bottom of the ladder, with the winner above.
Final rule: If a top 10 ranked player does not play for 10 days, he drops 1 rank.
Anyone can join the ladder, all they need to do is win a set!
If you have any questions about sets or ladder rules, feel free to ask!
By the way, you can play ladder games either in the main room live, or turn-based, on DSG only. You can't play games on pente.net or brainking and report them here. i will be looking on the db to verify reports.
