I agree that the ladder rankings (or whatever we call them) should take into account victory level. One key reason for this is that if a player quits early,...

I think the idea that the higher ranked player doesn't go up is 100% wrong. If you're number 2, and you beat number 3, that should allow you to become number...

The trickiest part of a ladder is how to move players who are not close together. This is compounded by the length of the game. If the game is short you can...
FWIW, I think tracking any aspect other than acutal ladder ranking is a bad idea. It is more complex and more confusing. Originally, the idea of the ladder was...
It didn't make sense to me - it was too long and too densely worded. Why not this - use a chess-like rating system, and rather than publish the ratings...

It depends how seriously you want people to take the "rankings". If levels of victory don't matter, and if you can't move up by winning against a lower player,...

I don't understand "virtual spots". A better approach (if we were to go that way) would be to adopt a numerical ranking system and rank players accordingly....
Couldnt one work the proposed ranking systems up by playing several smaller scenarios in a month or so and moving up even thought they do not play highly...
German heavy armor units in 1941 are "fun". A 5-6 and 4-6 with 27 air can overrun a 6 defense stack, making the defense of Russia harder. For those of you that...
I think the idea is tennis is that if the #1 is way ahead of everyone else (say having beaten everyone else, including #2, 10 times in a row), that single loss...
