I filed a inquiry/complaint..... not to get current # 1 in trouble. He is definitely not a rank monger. The replay I got was " However, although the rules state that #1 should play #2 as often as possible
they also state that players in the Top Ten must play at least once every 7
days. XXXXXXXXXXX therefore is not in contravention of the rules."he is only required to play 1 match every 7 days and # 2 as often as possible. Hence my inquiring was dismissed.
Rule use to say once every three days or so I thought. I don't want to accuse this person of rank hounding.... but the OP failed to read reat of rule...
Why wasn't this part of rule followed?
Rank Hounding: Players in the Top Ten are expected to be as active after they reach the top ranks as they were before. In other words, if you are playing 20 games a day to make it to the Top Ten and then only play once a week to hold your rank you may be penalized.
This rule needs to be amended.
If you can't play for 3 days and are in top 3-5 you should ask for VRR.
Thats my 2 cents
