Done.

The newest update is so awesome again! Can't wait to see the lower half of my templates as well!

Latest feature from Muli:
Ability to track a player's win rate across their top 20 templates. This can be seen on the player page.
We'll add the ability to view the lowest win rates soon so that players can focus on the templates they need to improve on!

Thanks to AwesomeGuy for running this poll! I'll make these changes sometime this weekend. So watch for the settings on your games carefully.

I will look through all of your suggestions and incorporate them in the next poll as well. Thanks for participating.

Whoops. Really easy to miss that tbh. Seeing only 30 people voted in 3 days i assume i'm not the only one who missed the announcement. I suggest to make that more visible, a one-liner plus a link is rather unremarkable. Maybe some sort of image to make this more of an eye-catcher

To people who think everything is unicorns and rainbows if SR :

You can't just switch WR to SR on strat templates.
Example - hannibal : the whole template was balanced for WR and neither number of wastelands, their size,starting armies, armies pert turn nor reinf. card strength or frequency are necessarily appropriate for SR. Even number of starting territories is debatable. You are making broken templates by randomly changing single aspects you dislike.

Source : somobody who actually spent time making & testing the gorram template that I'll probably end up vetoing.

I don't understand why Numenor is there,I'm curious what others think. If enough people dislike it perhaps get rid of it?

@Plat Whats wrong with Numenor?

Update:
Add paging to the all players page.

I'm going to post the top 20 players once a week. After almost 3 months we have a new #1 on the ladder! Congrats Buns. But MoD doesn't seem to be too far behind :P

Weekly update

Top 5 games of the week:

 MoD vs Oh            https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12660898
 MotD vs Buns         https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12615752
 Wini vs Kezzo        https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12432030
 Pardon vs AI         https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12718490
 Buns vs Malakkan     https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=12740177

Current Top 20:



Rank 1-5

1. MoD posts 10 wins on the bounce to reclaim #1. His rating increases by 63 points!! 
   He is 2 points away from the best rating on the ladder which is also his personal best.
2. Buns picks up 2 losses and 3 wins to fall 16 points.
3. MotD picks up 4 wins, and rises by 25 points.
4. 2 losses for Wini as he falls further behind the top 3.
5. Pardon finishes an incredible 17 games with a 12-5 record. He only gains 16 points 
   though which shows how hard it is to gain at the top.

Rank 6-10

6. AwesomeGuy returns from the dead to rejoin the ladder. He has 3 wins and a loss.
7. Malakkan is another one who is running through games! He posts a 7-6 record to fall 
   14 points due to a few bad losses.
8. Yulian Provoke gets ranked on the ladder for the first time. He has a good week with 
   a 10-5 record.
9. Beren finishes 0 games this week :|
10. Panagiotis' poor run continues. He has a 1-3 record and falls 26 points.

Rank 11-15

11. Impressive week for Platinum who goes 6-1 to rise 60 points and waltz into 11th place.
12. Smileyleg has a 3-3 record and drops 4 points and 2 ranks.
13. TheRiverStyxie has a good week with a 4-1 record. She rises 9 ranks and 51 points!
14. LeQuébécois_Benoit wins one game to finally get ranked. He was one of the earliest 
    to join, so I'm surprised it has taken him so long to finish 20 games.
15. Tjoex loses one game to fall 9 rating points. He has also dropped 4 ranks as it gets
    more competitive at the top.

Rank 16-20

16. Muli has a 3-4 record this week. He rises 6 rating points.
17. Nemo goes 2-3 and yet rises 6 points with his big win against Malakkan.
18. DrunkenMasterMMB goes 6-1 to gain 72 rating points. He also climbs 14 ranks!
19. Cluster wins one big game against Smileyleg to rise by 19 points.
20. Nero posts an impressive 5-1 record to debut in the top 20 for the first time since 
    my updates. He rises 42 rating points and 8 ranks.

p.s - If you have any suggestions/improvements for this reporting format, please let me know.

2 (stupid) questions :

- What's the minimum game at a time ? Are they 3 days boot btw ?

- Where can we find a description of templates, showing if WR or SR, LD, MA and other unusual settings ? Or the only way is to click on the MD ladder page on a template which loads games, then pick a game on the list, then check the settings ; and then remmeber if i like or not this template and this for each of them, then hope this wont go past 5 ?

-min game is 2 till you reach a certain amount of games (i think 30), then you can go down to 1.

-3 days boot, vacations allowed

-on some templates there are description videos like here: http://md-ladder.cloudapp.net/template?templateId=944620

Not every template has this yet, so better check the template quickly before you pick so you get sure to have the right settings in mind.

Ideally an Excel file with check boxes on all king of settings would do lol. While reviewing each template ill probably try to do it so this could be used for others too and serve the ladder.

Shame for the 2 min game, but ill give it a go soon.
