: : Hi all,

: : I want to voice my thoughts over the practice of making sure #2 is not bumped when playing others. This becomes difficult when we only have 10 - 15 active members and that we can play 3 times a day. It is wrong in my opinion to have to sit around and not play. Realistically it takes all the fun out of the game, especially when there are people in the room to play.
: : For instance, today I was the #1 player and there were 3 or 4 people in the room I could have played, but having to protect #2 I was unable to play at all. Finally I got sick of waiting around and took a rank reduction just so I could play. This is something that really does not need to happen since this is a ladder and movement is what needs to occur, not stagnation.

: : Just my thoughts

: I definitely agree with you-you come in to play but can't get a game until I play #1-at least in yahoo rank didn't stop you from playing no matter what rank you were.

:guess I worded it wrong-I can play but they have to be under a certain rank, still not sure what rank that is.
