Correct :) I think we are using both the words "score" and "ranking" with two different meanings each :) Hence the confusion :) Maybe have a look here to make sure what I had in mind: http://forum.freeciv.org/f/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=75565 I've given up on LT Web scoring... for...

I think we have some noise in communication :D I'd rank them the obvious way. But for any possible FUTURE ranking, I wouldn't use the score (1000, 900 etc.), but the rank (A is 1, B is 2 etc.) For example, the table could look like this: A 1000 B 901 C 900 D 899 E 800 . . Then, still giving points b...

ith score ranking you mean that the player with best score is 1st, the 2nd is the one with the 2nd best score...? Not sure if I understand it. Er... what? Removing the migrants would solve some problems but that would also limit the options the players have. Not asm much as citymindist is limiting....

The scores. You would want to see the 5 first players on in-game score to ranked to tier 1, the next 5 to tier 2...? We can try that but since the scores are visible in any case, it remains to be seen what kind of effect this will have. No tiers. Simply, line up players by their rank, one by one. Y...

Regarding cities, I have a drastic solution that may displease some people, but it actually makes sense: disable pumping cities with Migrants and Settlers. It's basically an artificial action that has no grounds in reality. It makes sense if you are playing Warcraft, but not if you are playing Civil...

The in-game ranking is not connected the traditional LT ranking. It will only list the players and how they did on the game. This is based on in-game score for practical reasons. For the record, this may also result in general carnage. If someone wants a better score, he will go to greater lengths ...

The large citymindist together with a bigger work area for cities effectively change the moves to close to 2x. In previous games the cities were able to work 3 tiles away and the citymindist was 4. On LT40 the cities can work 4 tiles away and citymindist is 6. With previous games (without roads) it...

wieder wrote:All surviving players will be ranked with in-game score.

Just checking, what exactly does this mean? That in-game score (the number) will be simply added to their LT ranking?

Well, I can't really be sure about the numbers, but keep in mind that some people will immediately lag behind and not grow to their fullest before others take up "their" space, so there will be more than "average" space for an "average" player.. So, to make a completely...

Ok, let's continue here instead you-know-where, and, skipping the jokes about introvert Scandinavians (actually, come to think of it, passing through Norway was a pleasant surprise because I suddenly realised that when you smile at Norwegian girls in the street, they actually smile back; I was a bit...
