Hey Ryan, can you post what the parameters are for losing 50 points for non-play with an account (i.e., how many days off are required)? I was a bit surprised to see this decrease occur without fair warning, or if something was posted before to this effect, I was unaware of it...

Jaits, It's just a game. Use your account.

Youre not going to become some internet superstar being #1 at kdice for sitting on your account.

I like the inactivity rule. It keeps people like you honest.

I play a lot and win some and loose some and want to move up, but if people like you are holding all the points and I can't find a top rated person to play then I get stuck playing these newbies and that is not fun.

Bottom line: Suck it up and play.

It so funny, you offer people some points hierachy and they jump for it, for nothing. They go crazy about their points, for nothing. They go angry about their points, for nothing.

""". I know you put a lot of free time into this"""

What you invested time into this? To get score? Not just for the fun of playing? Well if you think so, then let me tell you this investment was a huge mistake!

Oh sorry, I misread the last quote. I take everything back and say now the opposite!

Ryan, it would be great if you considered implementing a rolling point deduction after x days. It would really keep the players honest, keep things fresh, and make it so you had a true #1.

AFAIK you loose 1 point a day.

Since the discussion is still going on, I'd like you to read my Rating system thread. Since I've changed my mind it may convince other people too...

Hi Ryan.. i read your posts and understand your movements and i think they are mostly ok... But was it a single correction or is there a rule that if you dont play for seven day 50 points will be substracted? or are you going it to do it occasionally?
