New Rating System

[crump7]

Having played 69 games since the reset and had 4 losses, and currently sitting near the top of a master league, I have realised the current league system gives a basic indicator of your performance but leaves no real comparison of how your skill ranks against other players, and leaves me personally a little disatisfied.

I believe we would be better off using a system such as chess elo to rate everyone instead of league points, there would be no need for leagues of 100, which are arbitary and a bit meaningless, there would just be the elo rating.

There should still be divisions, fluffy, master etc., with defined promotion thresholds for example an elo of 2500 or greater for Super Titan, so everyone would have something to aim for as their rating increased.

I for one would rather see my true rating for example I would rather appear at #54 in the Master division rather than #2 in a master league of unknown number of leagues of 100.

Of course if a system such as this was implemented we would not want to lose all our progress and start from scratch, so a preliminary elo could be granted based on current data held.

Any thoughts?
