This already exists. Go to callouts, find the thread with the level of players you wish to compete against, and find out what their standard password is. Make up some private games and post em in the thread.

And in addition this suggestion is already on the "To-Do" list under "Rejected Ideas". -> Clicky for the old thread
In short, it was rejected in 2006 and has been again every time it has come up since and I'm sure it will be this time too.

Yeah this idea is open to Risk Snobbery. Any rank should be able to play any rank.The better player will prevail.

I don't think there should be a limit as to who can enter the game. However, there could be a dropdown in game finder that allows one to search for games with the rank one is looking for.

e.g. I want to play a 1v1 game against a captain. I can use the dropdown to narrow my search against all players waiting in a 1v1 game. Just a way to narrow searches further since there are so many games awaiting players.

Note: Anything below sgt. shouldn't be included so people can't go looking for noobs and bad players.

I like playing new people, but i dislike playing new people that deadbeat or are clueless.

In the section where you start a new game ... Would it be possible to add a rank limitation as one of the game options? So that those who would like t test their skill against more even ranked players can choose to do so.

Thx for reading this

This has been rejected MANY, MANY times. Please do a forum search before making the suggestion. You can check out the Callouts forum for private ranked games and leagues.

You could play Private games with the ranks you're looking for, you could jump into the last spot of a game awaiting players (so you can see the rank of everyone who will be playing) or you could apply to join the Officer's Mess (find it on the Usergroup List, I can never get the usergroup individual pages to link

).

In all fairness, I'd take that as a flame-bait in some circumstances (sailorseal) :-^

This suggestion has already been made in a variety of reworded guises, to name but a few:

Choosing ranks that may enter your games?????
Set Rank Limits for starting games.
cap on ranks
Minimum rank to join games option
Limiting Experience level of players in a new game.
Score Limit for joining a game *previously rejected*

One of them has already been marked *previously rejected*, you guys really need to do a post search before making a suggestion. Otherwise you end up with epic duplication like this.

Please explain why he was a moron? He had a lower rank than you, but beat you in a 1vs1 game where no one else can interfere or mess things up for you.

The scoreboard has a self-leveling feature for determining score. If you are a captain, and lose to a lot of people below you, then your captain rank was too high and you will obviously drop in score. If this drops your score too much, then you will start losing less and winning more which will bring your score back up. In the short run, this can cause a lot of fluctuation in score, but in the long run it starts to level you out on a "true" score for a given setting. If you can't maintain a certain score, that is no fault of the game engine or the score system or anything else. It just means your score was too high for the settings you wanted to play.

If you're really as good as your rank suggests, then you should have nothing to fear from lower-ranked players. Don't be afraid!

Concise description: I would like to have an option to play 1800+ games without setting my game private one.

Inviting cooks, cadets, new recruits etc are considered to be farming, right ?
I dont like to play against cooks, cadets, and new recruits who dont have idea what to do, how to play etc. It doesnt give any taste.
Private games, dont fill quick and i am forced to play always same ppl to whom i PM and invite.
Callouts doesnt work or works partially cos of huge portion dont read them.
Cooks - cadets (mainly low ranks) with the current pointing system, plays careless, plays brave cos they have nothing to lose.... I am bothered and abused by them all. With the BS dice of this site, sometimes the skills all i put in a game come not enough and i lose 70 points against a cook. What the H is that ?
I am a customer, i am given to make private game option. For what ? To play against whomever i want, to set my games to be what ever rank minimum games i like..Right ? Then why dont you make it easier and practical ?
I am sure this similar suggestion has been made, and how many times it has been made is out of my care. I simply dont care cos i am angry. I will never understand or i dont want to understand what the businesss strategy there lies behind it. I am not happy. Because low ranks are more in number, then their wishes come prior ? WTF is that. They have chance to improve themselves. Who prevents it ....

Specifics:

I want public minimum rank defineable games. Only players who meets the conditions will be able to join in.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

Obvious it is.
Dont fool me.
