Simple question:

Should there be a cap on rankings if a player is consistantly avoiding competition to bolster their ranking?

2 Examples:

Falke at #1 in overall rankings.......who has not played anyone over around 1400 in approximately 2.5 years and yet has risen from the low 1500's up to nearly 1800.

Dozer at #2 in the 2010 rankings........who sits and waits for ultra low players before he will start a game. He sits on a 1790 ranking and yet he has played all his games (except 2) against players under 1400.





Please vote and give reasons why or why not a cap would be good or bad.

Yes, a cap seems like a reasonable solution to that problem but your previous suggestion on another thread of the cap being 300 above the highest rank played seems to me too high. That would still allow someone to maintain a 1700 rating by playing 1400 and below players. A 200 cap sounds better to me.

And Dozer is still at it worse than ever. He refused to play me yet again. Sooner or later he will get beat and the whole thing will show him to not be as good as he thinks he is.
