I can answer ur points but it will take us nowhere...so just leave it and lets enjoy playing BG...

and let me assure u I hv not presented this idea to inflate rankings.. ALL i wanted to make high ranked players feeling safe when they are playing against low ranked players...


HOW I THOUGHT THIS

I was playing a high ranked player and was losing the game,he offered cube and i accepted( I accept most of the cube and usually end up losing with gammon   ) and he said i only accepted cube as I had nothing much to lose and If i would hv been playing for money i would hv never accepted it in real life.. i told him i never played BG in real life   as i learned it here and no one plays it in my country and 2ndly I accept cube most of the time because as Steelerhead says I want to see end of the game..so points don't matter to me and if there is any consolation I can offer cube back to him  


and few days back when i was at 1950+ a player asked me to play straight away cube 16 game and i did not understand the idea but after that 1st incident i thought and came up with this solution..

So if any1 thinks its to inflate rankings I am sorry for that..i hv revealed the true CONTEST of this SYSTEM.. As i said no1 is forced to join and i put a warning also for low ranked players so i hope every1 will decide wisely...


I hope this discussion will END now..thanks



PS: if any1 thinks he/she has been looted then just pz stop playing and tell me ,i will compensate him/her with my points

My point is that it makes the ratings system meaningless.

Just as long as the lower rated players understand their rating is going to decrease rapidly as a result of losing 10 points every time, and if their motivation is to get more games against much higher rated players for some reason then this is going to be counter-productive as a result.

For those who are not able to open games using the cube, how is it going to be?

Or you have to pay the subs.

In this SYSTEM one player should be a subscriber player, there are plenty in our updated players list..just msg to any1 u would like to play and he will start the game with cube ..same goes to all other non premium members..

As we are not ZE officials so we hv to make some compromises and hv to adjust within limited resources

Enjoy playing BG

16pts is a good idea!

And subscription is not so expensive i think.
