Anybody ranked over 750 loses 0.5 points a day so if they are offline for months their points keep dropping so no need to delete accounts.

depends on highest rank...

destiny on snooker is 990 in original so lowest he could drop to without playing is around 800-850

tiimmmyy in carom has about 850 highest and lowest he has dropped to is around 770

depends on what your highest rank is to minimum rank you can drop to without playing.


5) Daily reduction: a small amount is reduced from the top player's ranking.


someone who reached 950 would reduce until 800, 850 would reduce until 775.

Point is nobody can sit on the top of the rankings and still be there in 6 months...it's already covered so bisto doesn't need to take over lol

How can the system tell if a player is a 'fake newb' and give them less points? Impossible.

2) The newbie modification: if you play a newbie the points that you play for are reduced.

New user's are given a trial period of 50 games. During this period they are called newbies, and these 50 games allow the user to approach their correct ranking.

However as we are unsure of their correct ranking during this period we reduce the opponent's gain or loss in score.

This will prevent you losing a lot of score if the user is actually a very adept player, and stop you picking up a lot of points against a very weak player.

This is known as the newbie modification, and you can see this value if you turn on the stats in the options.

The maximum reduction is 90%, reducing exponentially to 0% as the user approaches 50 games.

Another way at looking at it is the more points the so called 'fake newbie' wins the quicker they get to a truer ranking score and the less potential damage they cause.

admission on his profile if you check Can spot them a mile off also. Real newbies wouldnt get a chance of winning that many points,they arent "used" to the game.

so untrue there bisto - first time i played i hit 800 as a UK8 newbie and that was with the old ranking system over 100 games. i've seen alot do something similar just starting up to say the game can tell if your new or not is impossible as james said.
