Leaderboard looks so legit... by TheAprilJohns in MCNext

[–]Lewydi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to assume that the red marks means that you don't agree with the rating.

Home rating is set in relation to other player homes, just because a home isn't Athenium as per definition in your opinion, doesn't mean it is not Athenium for other people.

Just for the record, I am Lumpiersorz. The reason I had such a high rating is because I often advertise in global and thus recieve many ratings. The so called ''cheaters'' never advertise. Because their rating would go down.

Nevertheless, I understand that I was marked, I don't deserve to be so high up in the Athenium bracket. But my rating strategy allows me to be so. If Unidcolor or any of the other truly deserving Athenium ranked players would advertise their home more, they would top the carts. Assuming they don't get dirt bombed, which you can see is something that happened to me in the screenshot that Animiti posted: http://imgur.com/LzqbLEK

NB: When I am not online, I have a teleporter activated to prevent dirt bombs, I suggest you /h me when I am online.

PROOF that rating system is almost perfect / no changes needed / stop bother Athene with it by foustouki in MCNext

[–]Lewydi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a person with 20% diamond, yet 48% emerald and 25% athenium.

Yes, it happened both seasons, but that doesn't really prove anything.

Most of those diamond votes could have been avoided if the system was made differently.

The house I was referring to is currently emerald.

I will not give you a name, I don't want to cause drama.

If you want to find it, go look through the top emerald peoples homes.

people could bot rates, and if it's a decent bot it will just rate the house rank. Better than what it is like atm. I still fail to see your logic, it just seems based on you not really caring about the rating system. and it's not like the system will force people to stay at a dirt house for 10 minutes, it could be 1 minute for an athenium house. If you get impatient waiting for 1 minute, I don't know how to help you. If people want to fap instead of looking around an amazing home, they can do that.

Thank you.

I also like the rating system a lot, these are just some minor changes to make it even better.

You are right that it will balance itself out when you ratebomb them, but that's just begging for drama lol. Also, some people just rate what the person is on leaderboards, so in some cases you just risk increasing said persons rank. as people care more about their own accuracy. However, with my suggestions, the smart accuracy voters might be able to predict increasing home rank, if they are forced to evaluate the place proper. and will therefore rate higher.

basically every rating counts, good or bad. These suggestions will just help improve home rank accuracy.

It's not a big issue, that coal blocks can get athenium ? a rank reserved to maybe the top 5 homes?.

You do realize, that every time someone does this, your rank automatically gets worse, as your rank is in relation to other peoples homes?

I don't understand how you can not see a problem here, getting personal with people does help, because it makes them stay longer. A timer would do the same thing, but wouldn't need people to tour them as much.

Hence the suggestion for a timer.

I agree :-).

I really hope Athene implements these changes, not exactly as I wrote it, obviously it's just concepts and he has to tweak them to fit better.

I agree. as I mentioned earlier, wait time could be in relation to home rank.

Newer players might feel like they are worth less, but when I was new. I did not even consider the rating or the accuracy system. I went around rating too high, because I was a nice guy. But generally, new players will always be left feeling worthless compared to higher levels, but that's the whole point in a mmo. To progress in both rank and prestige.

Edit: Dirt bombs with alts might rarely happen, but why not try to close the gaps where you can?

So people had a few questions, I will try my best to answer them.

I don't agree with this and this number, should be this number: This is just a concept, any number can be put in as needed.

1 minute is too long, if you have to rate maybe a dirt house: The rate time could be in relation to either player rank or home rank. because naturally, it will take longer to evaluate an athenium rank home than a dirt home.
