Join the 1v1 ladder today and find out how good you really are!

Now lots of people are playing 1v1 (PBEM) games it seemed like a good idea to start a 1v1 ladder. After 'some' discussion in previous threads we reached a compromise! And here it is.

System
When you subscribe to the ladder you start with 2500 points. When you win a game you gain points when you lose a game you lose points according to this table

Rd H L
0-100 50 50
<200 45 55
<300 40 60
<400 35 65
<500 30 70
<600 25 75
<700 20 80
<800 15 85
<900 10 90
>900 05 95

Rd = Rating difference
H = amount higher ranked player gets if they win, and also the amount the lower ranked player gets deducted.
L = amount lower ranked player gets if they win, and also the amount the higher ranked player gets deducted.

No player can have less than a 100 points. This means if you're on 100 points and lose you won't lose points just your dignity.

Rules

1v1
The ladder is 1v1 only. It doensn't matter how you play (PBEM, online) just as long as it's 1v1.

Win/defeat conditions
Very simple. Last human standing wins, draws are not possible. It's prohibited to refuse to continue a game to prevent a defeat. When a player doesn't play for over a week or less than 5 turns a week without a valid reason, his opponent can submit the game to the ladder staff and be awarded the win. (after both parties are heard of course)
Players using the infinite shield reload exploit will automatically lose.
When you and your human opponent disgrace yourselves by both losing to the AI then the human player with the highest score wins.

Game characteristics
You can use any game characteristics you and you opponent agree on (map size, map age etc)

Map generation
You can chose a random map if you wish. If you want to ensure the both of you have a reasonable start position you can ask a 3rd party to generate a map for you. Ladder staff is always prepared to do this, or check a random map or you.

Minimal game requirements
To stay in the ladder you should at least submit a game every 6 months.

Joining the ladder
You can join the ladder by emailing to civ3_1v1@hotmail.com
Please use subject : ladder subscription [nickname]
You can not submit a game for the ladder unless both players joined the ladder.


Submitting a game
If you want to play a game for the ladder competition please:
- send an email when you start the game containing the 2 participants. Include special rules you might have agreed on (for example: every player may request a restart in the first turn once)
- send an email when you finish the game. Include participants, winner and a zipped save game.

Current games
Currently running or finished games can be entered for the ladder of both participants agree to do so.

Unforseen events
The ladder admins will award losses to players behaving unfairly.

Bribes
The ladder admins will accept bribes (think along the lines of cash, liquor, sexual favors) to move you up the ladder ;)

Happy civing!

Sure, I'll start right at the bottom then, next to Col ;)

Count me in. Do I have to sent an email to that adress in your post? (...or do I have to perform a sexual favor... :D )

But of course, when you win the current game you will get more points for winning than you lost for the last game....
 
Of course the strongest players will be those at the bottom holding all the others up.

Currently playing 1 v 1 against meli, killer, Phil martin.
Its a shame my forthcoming win in 4x2 wont count for this ladder.
:rolleyes:

May I offer my map making services to ensure fair starts - many satsified customers ....... no bribe ever refused.

So are you calling me a strong player :p Now I see why I was invited to join :D

I have joined, let the games begin.... and Col, don't forget that even when seven wickets down for 87 runs Australians can still win a One Day Cricket World Cup Game;) (My appologies to NZ supporters)
 
I have updated the second post of this thread to include a provisional ladder.

If your name isn't in the list, or there is a game you would like to tell us about please mail the ladder admin staff HERE

Thank you
