top 20 scores because no one has registered scores on it yet. Also, this is implying average rank, not skill rank.

Skill should not be determined by 15 scores that you have gotten. Skill should be determined by active scores. Someone who gets 15 top scores like Myuka, then leaves the site forever shouldn't be ranked number 1 if others play consistently. It's basically like saying someone who was once good at something stays that way forever.

Show me where in your 'top 30' scores that you score 'consistently'.



Based on my interpretation of your argument, you should actually lose skill rating and drop in rank because your 'active scores' are worse than your top 30 lol.

Why would they be ranked higher than, let's say a level 84 player who is all around good at every pattern? The system doesn't care about that, or active players.

Not really an argument here unless you make a case for Grandtotal ranking taking the place for 'active players'. Doubt there's going to be a situation where the game just actively purges leaderboards because people aren't active. That moots the point of acknowledging really good scores on high levels of play for EVERYONE, regardless of their skill.

How about just play the songs that you're good at instead of complaining about others being good at a particular skillset different from your own?


Your arguments on ranking is basically boiling down to 'I play more than anyone else, therefore I should be on top of the leaderboard'. You are rank 21 in Average rank, and rank 4 in Grandtotal rank. That's absolutely devastating in comparison to a lot of people on the website, and merits their own bragging rights. But, wanting skill rank to be levied based on these other rankings is just not going to happen.
