The more people play, the more higher ranked players there will be. If they play on forever then won't everyone become A at some point?
I don't like the iccup system in general but maybe they should make more ranks. Add E and F?
So maybe even B+ for top 48? I mean, surely those people wouldn't be able to be B+ right now. But as more and more people play and there is more inflation, maybe B+.

well the point is that this season is MUCH more difficult. If you look at the very top ladder ranks, there are probably less than 10 non koreans in the top 100 (last I checked), whereas last season at this same time there were probably 20-30 non koreans. So overall, people are being much lower ranked this season than last.
but since from what I'm seeing is that a lot of TSL players are avoiding playing really good koreans, and playing more non-koreans, people in TSL will have slightly inflated ranks as a result of it. 20 days of laddering probably won't give rise to A ranked players, but there will probably be a plethora in the B to A- range, so I'm assuming that setting a goal of getting B rank will probably be sufficient to get one in the top 48.

Im pretty sure there will be not a single B gamer in the top 48. All A- and higher..
|
hmm... there is a TSL channel on iccup?
|
its just like TSL-1 , TSL-2 (I THINK)
|
wait wait wait im kinda confused now. what do you mean korean gamers? i thought korean and chinese gamers were prohibited from playing tsl.. wtff
all this time i thought only people could play against each other that were registered for tsl but they can play anyone from iccup to get their rankings?

You can play anyone on the ladder, not just TSL guys.
|
pretty funny : Mondi plays almost only TSL users. Because for him its win win situation. HE gains tsl players lose.. 
T_T confidence..
|
that's kinda the point I'm trying to make. if people were playing koreans and such, they wouldnt be able to get higher ranks, but since a lot of people are avoiding koreans, rankings will be inflated.
just like Mistrzzz getting A+ last season, but rarely played Koreans.

the sick thing is ..
There are almost no koreans playing anymore.. i cant find any..
this turns more and more into a TSL- Only server.. in the end it will be indeed only TSL vs TSL gamer.. so little koreans or am i going on at the wrong times ? but its a clear tendency isnt it ?

there are still lots of koreans that own me day and night!
a lot of the TSL players seem to avoid them on purpose.

Catyoul's script is so cool.
Cloud making a powerful entry in the top 48, rising 44 ranks in 6 hrs. Also TemujiN, ZpuX, Zazu and Notforu climbing about 20 spots. White-Ra plowing his way in too.
Is anyone saving this every 24 hours? Or is there a way to also have a daily report too? (like a different tab where it saves a shot of every day) Because it's just too cool to watch.
Anyway awesome script. Good job.
|
It would be cool to have a screenshot every 8-12 hours. I would see Nony jump up, but then while hes off or sleeping, others would overtake his spot, but he'll jump back up when he gets on again, etc. Its a see-saw, so screenshotting it 2-3 times would be quite dynamic.
|
Well you already have a 6 hours refresh rate, so you can just check it now and then. But after 3 weeks you won't want to go through ~60 screenshots just to see minor jumps. I believe daily shots would do great though, a 21-step program on getting into the TSL.

Omg I went 1-5 in my first batch of games. I'm so bad at this game, it's not faaaair

Before checking the thread, I added a new functionality in the script, you can now decide over which period you want it, not just for the last 6 hours. I believe you'll like it CubEdIn 
I am saving all the rankings too, so previous data will not be lost, if you want to look at it later on.
edit : It also only displays the top 100 changes for the category you selected by default to serve lighter pages. You can still see more if you select the option.
