I want to suggest a few ratings comments that I wish I could use...
1. "Lucky" (Sometimes you lose to a total idiot due to about three odds defying rolls) I usually mark the down on gamesmanship because they displayed no real skill, just fantasy dice.
2. "Ratings Wrecker" for those few you play where they give nobody a decent rating.
3. "Asshole" no explanation necessary

4. "Wadwhacker" - Someone who jerks off in the Top 5 threads
5. "Coconut nose" - Forum goer who brown noses the mods so much that their nose now resembles a coconut due to its hue, and the hairs stuck to it
6. "Wrongman douchereg" - A player who insists that you're the strongest player in the game, and that you must be destroyed, when you hold 1 territory, he holds 2, and the other guy has a +38 bonus

Re: Additional Rating "Explanations"
I suggest a popup whenever anyone wants to rate someone else. In all caps, size 200. Fullscreen. Text roughly as follows.
"3 stars is meant to be the average rating, not every player can be outstanding and deserve 5 stars. Unless the player you're about to rate absolutely blew your mind away with their pure awesomeness don't give them 5 stars in any category."

But then most ratings will have to retroactively readjusted accordingly, and I'm sure that no one wants to do that.
(Personally, I've left over 700 ratings, and there's no way you can get me to go back and change them all; and teamCC certainly doesn't have time to fix it either)
