New ranking

This idea scored very well in the netherlands. 59 players voted yes, and 2 players votes no. Look at the idea in the netherlands here. Now in english for you (sorry for bad language):

Proposal
A renewed ranking.

Current Workaround
By now, the ranking is really old and some new things like fort battles and achievement points are not implented.

Details
There have been a lot of ideas about the lay-out and content of the ranking recently. I have chosen some of these and combined them into this one. This is my idea:
- A new style for the ranking.
- There will be a ranking for players, towns, alliances, and of course the hall of fame.
- Alongside the character, the profession of the player will also be visible.
- Three new buttons in de player-ranking, for friendship request, duelling and telegram.
- There will be a ranking in overall points for towns and alliances, but also duelling points, forts and other types.
- Very much new rankings for players, towns, and alliances:

EDIT: To avoid problems, my name on the dutch version/forum of the-west is 125stylie. I don't know my password of my 125stylie account on the-west.net. Therefore, this account. Also important: In the dutch version the idea is a bit different. Please look at the idea here. The idea in the netherlands is an 'old' version.

Details
There have been a lot of ideas about the lay-out and content of the ranking recently. I have chosen some of these and combined them into this one. This is my idea:
- A new style/layout for ranking.
1. There will be subcategories of rankings for players, towns and hall of fame

Players:
added rankings :

1.Total achievements points
2.Fort battle stats -visible in current players ranking as well
3. Skills

Changes to current ranking page
1. the current setup shows only the character class mine will show craft as well.
2. Two new clickable icons/ buttons in de player-ranking, for friendship request (+ icon)and telegram(envelope)

TOWNS
- Besides the current system of town rankings . I would add also separate rankings for
1.duelling points
2.Total experience of all residents.
3. Fort fights- stats i presume?
4.Achievement points

and other types as can be suggested by you (else you needed to suggest it)

Ok yes from me.



not manus 97 was just interested whether animation gifs worked here as well.

Fine with me.

yes, though a new ranking sys has been in the talks, from what I've heard.

Yeah, I've always wanted some IG fort rankings.

Don't care squat about ranks, but you have my vote.

I'd recommend NOT having the Achievement points on the main Ranking page if you're going to be suggesting a separate ranking tab for Achievements anyway.
Also I'd NOT want it having the "friend" and "message" and "profession" buttons on the player ranking screen.
Main reason for this is that it takes up space meaning that more Player and Town names end up getting abbreviated to unreadable names, especially with the introduction of "Titles" in front of a player's actual name, so leave unnecessary items that aren't related to ranking off of the Ranking list and just have them on the actual player profile.

However I would like to see an additional 'ranking tab' for "Alliances" whereby any alliances on a world are ranked by their total player points, town points, fort points, duel points etc etc - would make alliance rivalry more fun and give people something to aim for

I'm sure we could have a drop-down for those buttons on the ranking page.

yep, was thinking the same thing Firefly. Fort rankings are good, lots of silly options (like messaging) on the ranking is bad. Perhaps the route to take is presenting clear fort rankings, indicate what type of rankings. If you don't, the developers will figure it on their own, and you may not like thr end results.

Thanks for all your replies

EDIT: On your opinions i made a new idea, a bit different.

Abuse Prevention
People could invite everyone by clicking on the '+' knop. You kan avoid this to make a pop-up with a text like 'do you want to invite this player?'.

As you see i made a new ranking for alliances, and I deleted the achievement points out of the experience ranking. I kept the friend-request and telegram button because it's a part of my idea.

greetings

I wouldn't even mind if ALL statistics were ranked as well. I could see nuggets used being confidential, but I think even comparing how far everyone has traveled by donkey would be interesting.

So you're thinking a ranking for all of these?

Filtered: Meaning every column sortable in order from highest to lowest.

1.General(fILTERED)Jobs finished/Gone to pray/Building levels completed/Used construction points/Amount deposited into the bank.Completed quests/Number of crafted items {Shortened terms with legend for example NOQC = Number of Quests Completed)


2.Distance travelled(FILTERED)/by foot/ donkey// horse/ Quarter


3.NPC Duels ( filtered) (npc duels won/NPC duels lost/NPC duels won/money won/money lost/ko'd/experience gained)


4.Duels- Perhaps extend to include if not already(filtered)
Knocked out in a duel,Knocked out opponents,Duels as challenger,Duels won,Duels lost,"One-Hit" Duel victory,Failed duels

5.Bounty(Filtered)Highest bounty/Lowest bounty/Wanted persons caught/Bounty received/Highest bounty offered/Wanted posters created/Wanted Dead posters created/Bounty offered

6.Fort Wars(filtered)Fort battle completed/Fort battle won/Sole survivor of a fort battle/Held the flag/hit count/missed shots/damage inflicted/hits taken/dodged shots/damage taken/average damage done/passed out during fight

Click to expand...

7.SKILLS Separate skills tables disappears. Useless skills removed(those we cant see) new single table with shortened mnemonic abbreviations(think thats the term) with legend or yellow tooltip For example fms = Fine Motor Skills STR = Strength DEX = Desterity. (AP IN UPPERCASE/Skills in lower case)(Filtered)/ ABUSE all players skills are now visible or keep it as current only top 50 or whatever. Players own skills fully shown.. Skills ranking would be bit controversial Ok but you decide.

Therefore 6 new rankings in total with renovated skills ranking. Other stats can also be included if they would be deemed to be popular.

Jobs fini......during fight

Click to expand...

(If the game can do stupid abbreviations then so can I!!)

Well Hell not sure if Elmyr wanted it all but....all that info is already stored by the game now and is viewable for/by each person within the Achievements sections of player profiles now, all you'd need would be an Achievements Ranking screen a bit like the existing Skills Ranking screen.
So by default you'd click into Achievements in Ranking and it would have everyone ranked in order of total achievement points, but then at the bottom you'd have a drop-down or scroll section where you could choose to view a comparitive ranking of 'miles travelled by donkey' or 'jobs finished' or whatever and it would then show that ranking info instead - (similar to how you can in the existing skills menu change to view ranking of players Vigor/Trading/Swimming etc etc)
Ranking heaven since 2011

What I mean with filtered firefly is that you would click on the top of a column the "title" it will then sort the table according to that category. There is no need to bring scrolls or other stuff in. Just a simple click. For example


Anyway lets say I click on fms The table then shows John as the player with the most Fine Motor Skills(Current view) but if I click on stm Peter will be displayed first as the player with the most Stamina. So there is no need for anything but the table.

The most simple thing what they can do if all statistics would be ranked is do what they have done by achievements.

ye that would be awesome

I really like your opinions. I'm going to make an update of my idea. I will post it in the evening

EDIT: I don't really know the rules of the English forum, are they different than in the Netherlands? My question: Can i post my updatet idea here in this topic, or shall I open a new topic with the new updatet idea, so we can close this one? Thanks
