Title: Host Ranking System...
Post by: Memnoch on October 16, 2010, 16:35
I have a question regarding HOST ranking system.....

I have recently started hosting games and I have hosted 2 - in both of those games 1 player was disconnceted due to issues with their home systems - yet MY reliablity ranking goes down?

I did not kick or cause any issues for them - BUT MY Ranking is affected?

Seems unfair......

This is one of the many examples of why life is unfair.
Best way to combat this is to have a cup of tea and some toast and try not to think about it.
If that doesn't work put some woolen socks on.
Woolen socks always work.

There is no way that i have figured out to fairly implement the host ranking percentage.  In the long run reliable hosts will end up in the 80-90% range....if a host has 100% reliability he just hasn't hosted enough.  And likewise the worst hosts still end up having 40-60% rankings.  I wouldn't sweat these numbers much they are just there to give people a general idea of who the good and bad hosts are.  If anyone questions your reliability have them look at the games you have hosted on the high scores section of this site.
