Ranking (armageddon)

[Vitus]

What's up everyone.. new on the board and was wondering how often the rankings are updated on the website.

[Shuichi]

About once a week, try the search feature next time.

[Vitus]

Thanks. Now I know that not only is the website updated about once a week, but the sarcastic assholes like to reply first.

I did try the search function, but couldn't find a definate answer.

[thrdflrmshr]

Hey, you got an answer... The "sarcastic assholes" are only assholes to you because you think everyone's out to get you. Eggplant up there answered your question with limited flagrancy. Be joyful and celebrate.

And, to not get off topic, they are starting to update rankings a lot more often than before, which is very very good. I know this should go in the suggestions forum, but a live update rank system would be insanely awesome (and not too hard to program, either!)

Oh wow, that's right your new, that was me being nice, it was a suggestion not sarcasm. This has been asked before, which is why I said to use search, so you avoid getting flamed for being a lazy dumbass.

But since you are to stupid to figure out how to use search, let the flaming begin!

[Bottle]

Lol shuichi, in your post you quoted him as saying "I did try the search function.....", then said "But since you are too stupid to figure out how to use search....."

Hmm.... who deserves flaming more...... it's quite close..... SO I'LL FLAME BOTH OF YOU! HAHAHAHAHA!

*flames*

mmm.... that felt good.....

[Omega_Paladin]

Pay no mind, Shuichi is still stuck on that "LinuX vs windows" thing that happened a few threads \/ that way....


in other news, given the atmosphere around here, don't expect anything but sarcasm, hostility and lies. TRUST NO ONE! EVERYONE IS OUT TO GET YOU! BEWARE! BEWARE! THEY'LL COME FOR YOU WHILE YOU'RE ON THE CAN!

THEY WILL TAKE YOUR TOLIET PAPER!!!!!!!!!

[Bottle]

Nah.... they wouldn't do a thing like that... would they?

*checks for toilet paper*

Ok, who took it?

[Shuichi]

Bottle you idiot. Just because he knows there is a search function and "tried" to use it, doesn't mean he knows how. Which he obviously doesn't.

Here I will demonstrate. Want to know how often they are updated?

Check this thread:

http://www.tacticsarena.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1198&highlight=rank

Please feel free to check the date. You can very clearly see the question has already been asked. Want to know more? Post in it.

Thanks, you are still an idiot, and bottle is stupid for sticking up for a dumbass.

[QuicksandSlowly]

They update our rankings every night! ^^

[Bottle]

How does that thread answer the question?

And I just did a search for "rating update" and nothing came up, so are you calling me a dumbass too? Because I DO know how to use the search function...... and it didn't come up with anything useful..... so you can't blame Vitus for not finding anything......

Ok so the answer wasn't in there. My point is it has already been asked. Ask in that thread.

And for an answer, go here. Again using the search I found this.

http://www.tacticsarena.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4252&highlight=ranking+updated

So my answer to you, is yes.

Omega answers this and the other n00bs question in the VERY first reply.

I can blame all I want. That took me 2 minutes to find.

[Bottle]

All that that thread says (that is useful) is "when it happens they announce it. They just do it as time allows." I don't think that answers his question fully either.........

[Shuichi]

What the hell is this?


or in other words about 1 every week

The very damn first reply. My god people.

Even what you just said answers his question.

Noob: When do they update ranking?

Snork (who was the SECOND REPLY): When they have time.

HOW IS THAT NOT AN ANSWER?

[Bottle]

Sorry, didn't see that in amongst all the rubbish.....

But its not every week actually, more like every fortnight. So theres your answer Vitus. Now be quiet Shuichi, there's a good eggplant. Stay in your box next time.

[Shuichi]

Bottle owned. You are both n00bs. ;)

[Bottle]

The thread you put forward was still wrong, it gave the wrong answer..... IT IS ACTUALLY EVERY FORTNIGHT ON AVERAGE. That is the right answer, Shuichi got it wrong in quoting from that thread.

No-one owns me but The Bottle herself.

[Shuichi]

Uhm, no you are wrong, the last two times it was updated within 8 days, which is a week to me. That thread is not wrong. So stop trying.

Either way, the question was already asked, and he could have read that post, or posted in the one that is not locked to get more information. New threads about the same damn topic over and over get seriously old.

You are still an owned n00b

On top of that you have only been around 18 days, not even enough time for your statment to hold true.

[Bottle]

But since then it has not been updated. And before that the average was over a fortnight. So, I'd say that what I said was exactly right..... ON AVERAGE IT IS ONCE A FORTNIGHT.

Still an owned n00b.

He still shouldn't of posted this thread either.

[Bottle]

My forum account has been around for 18 days. My game accounts have been going since last December:D

I know the game better than you do Shuichi.

Let me repeat what I know, since I have 3 months experience: THE RATINGS ARE UPDATED ONCE A FORTNIGHT ON AVERAGE.

So you say. I have played since day one.

What rank are you anyway?

I am at 1345, and should be in the top ten when ranks are updated. Currently I am number fourteen.

You are both still owned, because this thread still shouldn't exist. Neither of you have givin me one good reason why it should.

[Bottle]

My ranking is 1441, thank you very much. I will own you if you ever want me to. I will be ranked 4th on Banff when the rankings are updated, which by my calculations should be in a few days time.

Fancy a battle?

Grey vs grey...?

Ranks between severs mean different things. However I am glad to see you are in the top 10 and can back your shit up :).

[Bottle]

Yup. Banff's the place. You have an account there I presume? Are we allowing unit drops? I presume not......

Wow, I presume too much:D

[Shuichi]

^ I edited that, see bottom.

Oh and I might be higher if the top 10 wasnt dominated by my clan.....and the #1 holder who cheats would play me.

No, I don't have an account, but I can make one, not tonight though, going to play Final Fantasy XI.

Tommorow for sure.

And you are still owned, he shouldn't of posted this ><.

[Bottle]

I detect fear of losing..........

And desperation of having better stats.......

And I won't be on tomorrow at this time, I'm in England and normally I'm in bed at this time......

You are one lucky eggplant.

Fear? On an account that means nothing to me? Wrong.

Then the next day. The fact is my roomate just got off the computer, and I am going to play a better game :). Wether or not you beat me, still does not change the fact, that this thread shouldn't exist, and you are owned.

I don't fear you, check the damn rankings....it's all The Elite, and like Aro23r....who I have played once, and DID loose to.

[Bottle]

I'm not sure I can make it the next day either, cos I'm going home so won't have a decent amount of computer time..... but definitely Monday.

[Shuichi]

Ok, I will be sure to play a bunch of 0 point ganing grays so I have practiced up a bunch to p\/\//\/ y0u|2 /\/00b 4ss!!111!1!!!!

Oh yeah and better stats mean nothing when you can't play the people above you for points ;).

[Bottle]

That doesn't even need responding to. So ignore this post.

I can't ignore it and I will flame you for it.



FLAME

[Bottle]

Do you enjoy being an eggplant? You look like an egghead, too.

Sorry about the awful joke

*flames self*

You realise we are just post whoring now! mmuuahahaha!!

FLAMES AGAIN

Oh and yes I like my Eggplant title, it was givin to me by Omega and green97....inside joke ><.

[Bottle]

At least I can flame myself.....

Observe.....

*flames self again*

Now that felt good.

Edit: Oh and BTW I have to go now, sorry to leave just when I was winning the argument, but I have lectures 'til 12. (note that I am English)

[Snarr]

Guys we must keep our focus here, and remeber that the true enemy is the n00b that started this thread, was helped and then still called you an asshole. Look at how he got you two going at each other! It was all a part of his n00bish plan you know....

[Vitus]

I can't believe you called me a n00b snarr. I thought you were one of the cool guys (that doesn't act like he's 13) on armageddon :) At least you didn't ask me to press f5 in order to get a dragon when I played you.

Here's the final post for me:
I got the answer I was looking for, but as bottle pointed out, AND as I stated in my second post, I looked and couldn't find a definate answer. The only thing I could find was a very funny post about the stars, moons and planets aligning. Every other post seemed to only offer up their opinions about how often it is updated. Simple question that had a simple answer-- but so many people seem to ramble on about so many things on this forum, it is hard to find anything.. there isn't much structure.
Hats off to bottle for taking time to notice that my question still wasn't answered at first.


btw.. Thanks for the laughs.. I haven't been called a n00b since '96.

[S_K_O_F]

after reading through this whole thread

I have yet to find a definative good reason why this thread was created


nice try in justifying yourself though vitil

[Vitus]

Well, it's a good thing you don't have to understand the reasoning behind events in order for them to happen. Otherwise, I doubt much would get done.

Btw...My name is Vitus, not vitil.

yeah...i knew what your name was...

sorry for mispelling it but I had to haze you in some way because you are new

dont worry...you got way less than most n00bs get

now you may continue on in the community free a n00b flames:D :D :D

[Snarr]

Yeah you are probably rights I'll take back my statement if you don't mind, I'm just on the n00b hunt for letter so I am seeing n00bs everywhere and in the forums you are a n00b until proven otherwise.

-EDIT-
Besideeeeeeees if we don't put some sort of flame filtration on the new guys the true n00bs will find it too comftable and stay. In these times of n00b overflow we get defesnsive sometimew, but as I said the statement is taken back.

Since 96' hah? What did you do then?

[Vitus]

I think it was the last time I got owned in Warcraft II. :D

You guys have some good points though.. I should prolly lighten up and just take the hazing. It's been a long week.

[Shuichi]

Yay! Hoho Burrito-
