It's maybe quite late for such ideas, but...
The name 'Multi-day ladder' doesn't really give a clue what this ladder is about - there are 4 other multi-day ladders.
So, wouldn't something like 'multi-template ladder' be better and more informative?

Total lies!

For those of you who missed this post, https://www.warlight.net/Forum/106092-mulis-userscript-tidy-up-dashboard?Offset=666

So cool! thanks Muli and I suppose deady :P

Thanks for the template descriptions. Great improvement.

Just noticed on Belarus the Blockade is [21] instead of [19].

What a game for Buns, it seemed that he is going to lose with that position, but he did everything perfectly to break Makedonia.

interesting updates :)

Amazing, will join it soon enough

Timinator is currently on fire by having 2033 rating while Buns is still in the 1st place with 2038. Also they have common on-going game which should be interesting.

Once there was this forum:

https://www.warlight.net/Forum/260838-mdl-template-changes?Offset=0

It was mentioned that a panel was discussing issues regarding template changes, and the link to follow these was given as https://goo.gl/uwv6js

Now the link takes us to a different Google sheet. On that sheet there's the "Todo" tab. None of what's written there is related with changes in templates.

My question: Is the panel done with the template changes? It's possible that I missed the latest update.

The google sheet has been repurposed i think for other things related to the MDL instead of keeping it as the reasons why those specific template were voted out of the MDL but in the linked thread you can find the template links that were voted out of the MDL by the panel of 8 different players afaik

My question: Is the panel done with the template changes? It's possible that I missed the latest update.

Yeah they are done with the changes afaik. The template Voting sheet was hidden, but I've made it visible again.

Pardon will not be able to do the weekly updates anymore, and we need someone who can post once a week on this thread. The weekly posts increase MDL's visibility to new players and have resulted in greater participation. Any volunteers to take over from Pardon?

---

It's been a while since the new rating system(see https://www.warlight.net/Forum/216823-multiday-ladder?Offset=628) was implemented on MDL.

I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on the following(or anything else):

• Does it reward a player sufficiently for wins? I haven't been too active myself, so I'd like to hear from some of the higher rated players if their growth was too slow.
  
• Do you see abnormal fluctuations in rating which cannot be explained by results?
  
• Is the activity bonus per game fair(or is it too high or too low)?
  
• Does the activity bonus cap(current cap = 80) need to increased/decreased? Do you see any highly active players not reaching max cap? Are the slower players significantly disadvantaged?
  
• Is the activity bonus daily decay reasonable?

Just bugs report (i think)
That's clan leaderboard "First rank":

1	  MASTER Clan		3
2	  Outlaws		2
3	  [Lynx]		2
4	  Icelandic Turtles	1
5	  SNinja		1

Yet, there are only 4 players in (individual leaderboard) - 2 masters, 1 lynx and turtle

also:

All times highest ranking (clan)

2	  MASTER Clan	1977

and Motd was 2000+ for sure


Another thing: website is not working properly when accessing it during CRON job - it usually gives error 500 but i've also seen updated ratings with not updated positions. Maybe just disable for this time with some 'sorry, please come back later' message.

Noteworthy Observation:

Buns157 being such a try hard at 11-1 since the last update, Thankfully the 1 defeat was from a Outlaw (Facetroll) , Take that noob!!! Buns has risen 50+ points and to be honest.. He kinda looks unstoppable atm... Will he be the first person to break 2100? To be continued.... (Cliffhanger! ftw)

Chicken Curry is back at the menu at 2nd and it's a slow cooked one! He's only completed 2 games.. Should I be more impressed that he went 2-0 or he completed 2 games..

Timinator has come in 3rd going 12-7 , Defeating me in the process... Never really liked him..

Malakkan is 4th , When I saw him 4th my legit reaction was a mouth jaw-dropped wondering "How the fuck did he get there?!?!" the answer being.. He went an unbelievable 15-3.. Not so surprising given his CL performance. Glad he's doing it on the MDL continuing his quite strong CL performance.

Master of desaster went 5th , 9 fucking games at a time.. Making me calculate your stupid past games since the last update.. (9/3) -_- lets see you went.. 25 - 13 .. Very nice work! You are rewarded -8 points!

Thanks Edge for playing 2 games at a time.. Making it easier for me :)!! Edge has gone 6-2.. Also beating me in the process... Son of a bitch..

Krzystof going 23 wins for 9 losses to claim 7th, If we ignored his 1st page of results.. He would be 19-1.. Sadly we can't ignore..

Belzeblu comes 8th with a record of 10-6 , He breaks the top 10 but he has broken my heart in the process cause he blacklisted me in this period.. When asked why he blacklisted he responded with..

bad talking, higly offensive language , insults, childish conversation, and a whole serie of behaviors that denote a person with serious mental problems or a person eccessively immature andI stupid, but i think you already know.

Arkanton falls from 6th to 9th.. Almost like my grades... Doing MDL updates instead of studying.. My life in a nutshell.. Arkanton has went 28-15 since the last update. Fair play to him.

Krunx also debuts to the top 10 , Well done to him! it's what I wished for during my 18th birthday which happened this month and nobody noticed.......... 6-3 he has gone since the last month! raising a juicy 31 points.

Not So Worthy Notepoints:

• This update took me 30 minutes about to type up and decorate it like a cake.. I didn't get permission from curry god motd and kinda did it out of the blue since the MDL thread was getting old and stuff. Using my initiative ;)
  
• Being 18 means I should be thinking about driving.. Just one problem.. No money.. Solution? Here it is => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljPFZrRD3J8 I will ride a horse :)
  
• Bought FIFA 18 there, Awesome and really fun. Anybody have Xbox one and the game? We could play.. Maybe chat.. Maybe more??? ;);) Oh god... I'm so desperate ;(;(
  
• Shower thought: Community events should mean community effort, If you have free time chip in with a worthless update like this every so often ;)
  
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7MC8Lw5e9Q Banger for ya , If you were from Wales I would say "Here's a Bangorfor ya!! huh! get it? Amazing, I'm such a comedian!! (Bangor is a place in Wales.. Did I make you facepalm?? Yeah I have that effect alot..)
  
• This is getting too long.. Goodbye :)
