They can't be RANKED at the same time. So for the RT ladder you have to wait 3 days for one to be unranked again.

As far as i understood from the ban warning, i'm not allowed to play with my alt on the rt ladder ever again. He wrote me the message like all alts are generally forbidden on 1vs1 ladders. I'd be active with my alt on the rt ladder, but if my alt is not allowed to play, why should i play at all?

well, I would say you should be fine as long as they are both not ranked at the same time, no? But perhaps it is different on RT ladder since you could easily join when you see someone on you want to beat and manipulate the ladder (you have some control over match-ups, unlike 1v1 ladder)

I mean you can't let the games expire on RT ladder.

I've played with my alt and main on the 1v1 ladders, but never been ranked and/or active at the same time. The whole intent was to play the 2v2 ladder, then the template went to crap.

Do you think we can find a way to quantify WL players' interest in the RT ladder?

Perhaps we could check the average number of games played in the ladder every week. If this number is really dropping, we might make a concrete claim with regards to the original question in the title of this thread. This could initiate even more productive discussions.

?

as i pointed out before, there are 2 bad things on that ladder. firstly, easy to implement, a Change of some templates. the second Point that prevents me from playing is that there is no restriction on who you Play against. i don't want to Play games where i can't get Points for a win or even worse, lose 1 Point. I don't know if that can be avoided with an adjustment of the trueskill algorithm, or if it can only be done by putting a range depending on the Rating of players for matchups

i agree wtih change template, for the algoryth, fizzer can't change it, he has to put a range in matching system

Perhaps we could check the average number of games played in the ladder every week.

You will have to browse through https://www.warlight.net/LadderGames?ID=3 and do the count, or ask Fizzer if he could provide such data.

Just a rough look. The numbers are very low. Currently it has only about 400 games per week, 40-60 games per day.

if i'd Play it'd be already like 20 games more every day... just saying :D

Well there are some things that some pepole wont join.
I think that main reason that pepole panic because of strong/low point players , and the templates that not everyone likes.
I wonder what would be if the players would be hidden just as in coin games.

Thanks for the response, Inquisitor.

gaer, hidding players would be a good solution indeed.

I'm now gathering numbers of games played on sampled days...
