macuser, nice! I like the fact that people see something so shiny and light and positive in the depressing post-apocalyptic world of Warzone 2100. :D

Still, i didn't know how to put it to the website (i was expecting something more ... compact and symmetric, maybe), so i reworked it a little. I still don't 100% like it, but i think it'll do! (: Thank you very much!! (: (: (:

Hmm. I just realized that i didn't ever ask for permission to use the Warzone 2100 logo from the official website. And the favicon is also based on the official one.

Better late than never. May i?? (:
Maybe i should add some notice that "this website is unofficial" etc.?

There is really no need to ask. But since you did: Feel free. :)

I wonder if we should start a 2x2 league now (with teams instead of players, all the rest is the same, including the website engine, though some integration between the two leagues may be possible later). Is anybody interested? (:

Well, i mean ... do we have any teams around?? (:

Or maybe some sort of clan wars should be made instead? (The same but without fixing the team's players?) (Eg., a game between RBL and BDC can be played between any players in these clans, and some sort of clan captain chooses the players, and he also posesses the league login and submits the results) (?)

Count me in, however it works out, I mean.

That's an interesting idea about clan wars.

1. Just wanted to bump the thread ^_^ Looks like the league is still working, and new members are welcome! (:

2. We now have a facility to remove games that were submitted by mistake. If you have submitted a bad game, just ask moderators, we can remove it any time (assuming the opponent agrees it's wrong).

3. Being impatient enough, i sometimes want to increase the K-factor for regular games, so that ratings change more quickly. I feel as if the system of provisional ratings seems to be working well only when there already exists a large number of non-provisionally-rated players. Does anybody else feel the same? Is it worth rebuilding the standings (or we could apply it only to the new ratings)? Or should i just be patient and watch? Any rating specialists here? (: (: (:

Id vote for increase the K-factor and reset, even though ive got 21 games logged in it ,i still think this would work better.
Failure is not falling down but refusing to get up.

Pm me to try out for RBL.

Wisler: ok, lets wait for more opinions, 'cause i don't want anybody to get disappointed because of this (:

P. S. A few changes were just made on the league website. First, players with provisional ratings are moved to a separate list. This is because it's bad when a player that has played 0 games is considered to be higher than a player with a rating of 999 that has played 20 games.

Also, i've just placed some fancy graph near the game log:

Is that a GMT +0 graph?

Sure, "GMT" stands for "GMT +0" (:
The league log is also displayed as GMT.

You've really done a great job. So much better than the original idea and especially since the calculator cannot leave :wink:
