And how would you calculate points based on win%?

Also, punctuation has never killed anyone. I think.

Well, if you get a gold medal in the first place, it would have taken you a considerable amount of games won. This equals points :D

If you want more points that badly, stop playing on the poker map :twisted: (and more 8 player esc. games).

Win present tells you more about the size of games a person plays, then how skilled they are. Although skill is a factor, its not large enough to warrant it counting as points.

It does. The more percentage of games you win, the higher your points go ;)

you couldnt be more wrong. there are literally thousands of players with a 50% win that are below 2000 points, and thousands of players with 35% win that are at over 2000 points.

If you win 20% of your 8 player games against similar rank, you will have more points than if you win 45% of 2 player gams against similar rank. WAY MORE POINTS!!!!

I wasn't stating literally that the more you win, the higher your points. But generally, if you win more, your points go up.
Anyway, even if I thought making win percentage influencing ranks... How do you propose it would be implemented?
