N4 Rankings

I'm not certain that this guy's got it 100% accurate (he even admits that), but he's at least made a stab at telling the world how the rankings work in N4, more than I've seen anywhere else, anyway. Anyone got any other ideas? http://www.geocities.com/craneris/rank.html -- Colin ICQ 25485061

Anyone got any other ideas? >http://www.geocities.com/craneris/rank.html It seems like a good explanation, I don't think he's too far off with his suggestions. I like the idea that you only score points / score more points if you win from drivers with a higer level. Allthough using the ranking in pick-up races is not much use since half of the N4 drivers seem to enjoy wrecking and driving the wrong way the most :( Andre

Thanx for the site Colin!! It helped me with "how to" raise my rating faster and keep it there.. Cheers Thom_j.

Is this ever the truth Andre and getting worse daily! I'm glad many are rating their races now 'i.e. 2-5, 5-10, 7-10 etc.. It's better for all!

The bad part is that I had a 4 rating and a 191.3 in the incident catagory....then some A@@ started wrecking everyone and my incident rating fell to 112.6. I have yet to get past level 4 because of some jerks on-line. I work all freakin day and relax by trying to drive one race a night. I get so pissed when a nit-wit ruins it for everyone in the field. Last race Some dick took out all of the field but me <dodged `em> and left me runnin by myself in front.....so they shut down the server.

KdF this is why I feel rated or passworded races are the way to go. Sadly the rated races are going down hill too. We had a great Dega race today with a field of 43... Then 3 wise @zzez started wrecking & that was the end of that race too. PW'ed are better and then you can race with others you repect and now.. ya know?...lol "O" well... Thom_j.

But, does it *really* surprize you that the server would be shut down? It doesn't make sense to continue if one guy wants to ruin it for others... I'm curious, though - can't you just !eject the offending asshole? Eldred -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +28.67...F2 +151.26...

If you are running the server...I do believe you can eject the a-holes...but the problem seems to be that the dood <or doodette> is racing too and only gets bitched at after the mayhem starts. It`s just that I`m not running the server....someone else is and I only want a decent race. I can`t pick and choose who will enter the fray...and I do not know that many names out there. Passworded games seem to be the way to go....but how does a guy like me...who only wants to do 1 race a nite <time permitting> get into a passworded game without knowing who to ask...and who will vouch for me? I do not on the other hand blame all wrecks on idiots...I too have caused my share...due to lag and warps mostly <and yes some stupidity>..you see where I`m going?? I just had to vent. =0) AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!

It's better for all! Hey I didn't know you could host a race for drivers with a certain level only! (I just started racing online since last sunday). Very cool feature!! But untill I get a good level I still have to drive with these kamikazes :( Andre
