Not sure why you can't update the rankings on the website daily. Shell script mean anything to you?

Who cares about the rankings. The game is supposed to be fun. I don't care that I'm ranked. I want to play the game and have fun.

I care about the enviroment...and you. I care about puppies....and you. I care about whales....and you. I care about my mother.....and you. I care about economic problems....and you. I care about the government.....and you. I care about ratings for some innane reason....and you. And if you truly care about those who care about you, send a large amount of money to last person who said that they care about you. I care about the ocean....and you.....

Too late :). My pyramid scam was discovered and I am running from the General of Armies. Can't just stop off at the mail-box can I?

wow..... you guys really have attention span problems don't you? like 2 of these replies have something to do with the original thread? This is exactly what DR was getting pissed at.



Anyway, i personally would like more ranking updates.... especially since they said with the new ranking system it would be easier for them to do it more often.

When did they say that where? Maybe it's just me but I don't see how the new ratings system would make it easier to update it.

If you don't care about ratings, then it doesn't matter to you either way whether rankings are updated regularly.

If you do care about how you stack up against others, as many, many players do, then maybe you have something useful to offer to this conversation besides "this is retarded."

It's one number associated with one name. Anyone who's cracked open a Perl book could write a script to update the Rankings daily -- it makes no sense that they would be out of date by 10 days.

I would say it's not too much to ask, considering you actually have people PAYING you to do it.

i dunno.... i just looked and i couldn't really find anything to support my claim other than #4 on aro's sticky in the suggestions forum. I thought there was something else too, but i can't find it
