Hey

Would it be possible to raise the require experience for the experienced only room, or create another room, where the required whr is >1900, because atm so many noobs can still play.

Last time we had a lvl 5 guy there that barely new how to build a factory....

Ps. Is it possible to also add a minimum lvl?

I think the minimum level would be more valuable than raising the minimum rank.

You're already excluding over half of the shiny gold ranks, many of whom are okay at the game.

The issue here is that the system thought his rank was indeed that high, when his actual level of play didn't match that at other people of the same numerical value.

Are there really so many players that you can segregate them further?

Why isn't MM enough for competitive play?

we were 19 players in the room today.

The reason for my request is to prevent new players and obviously not experienced enough players to play in that room.

I mean, why do we have an experienced room when people with lvl <20 that seriously dont know the difference between a glaive and a bandit yet, be allowed to play in such a room. The same counts for some 1700Whr players that gained their ranking with monospam in teamgames. Its obvious that those people will unbalance games, where most players will be higher ranked.

Just as a little prove:

last night we had some really nice games in the experienced room. i recommend to continue experienced cluster, it prevents the constant whining caused by the "all welcome" cluster. also, you are only as good as the challenging team. every villan needs a good champion!

Blame the Mumblers for feeding him so much rating:

The limit is already using ladder rating, that means that (new) players with high rating but high uncertainty have a penalty on their rating.

I made a pro room for you.

Last time a poll was run it wasn't even close to 50%

s iz why they join the team rooms

Nope, it's because clusterfuck is often the only room around. And then the lobsters join that room, and reinforce that effect.

Didn't my poll show around 40-70% prefered clusters? If I recall right my survey showed clusters were the most prefered zk format.

I guess you are referring to this:

But notice that this poll asks pretty much for "do you support clusterfuck extermination by forcing player limits".

Here's what i am referring to:

Also note that the things that the genocidal poll talks about as being clusterfuck - "higher than 6v6 or no limit" - include the most popular category in this poll, 5v5 to 7v7.

so basicly only 30% would prefer small games 2v2 up to 4v4 and the rest prefer bigger games so the majority prefer clusterfucks

I think if you add a 16v16 to that poll, it's not going to rank very high.

I've always wanted a trial weekend where all rooms maximum 10-12 player. Forcing clusters into 2-4 separate games

cluster games help hide mistakes of not confident players.. like how fish find safety in huge shoals
