Battle Points (BP)

    Just went into VF.TV and looked at Battle Points. It seems that the rankings are more based on battle points than actual ranks.
    Don't know if anybody here really knows what's the point of BP but figured it be something to talk about seeing as how some unlikely players have a lot of them along with a lot of good and well-known players.

    Looks like our boy Blahzie is in 4th right now with 52,766 BP.
    Killa Ken is in 9th and, get ready for this one, BdoubleBlade is in 10th place with 40,501 BP /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif
    It gets better, right behind him is TMG Cyber7 with 39,901 BP /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif

    Our boy Ayufanboy is in 19th place with 30,948 and VFnumbers (come back bro) is in 23rd with 29,574.

    Anyway, since it seems kinda hard to rank up with people hiding with their ranks and Master being a pain to pass with hardly any 10th Dans around, I wanted to bring a little bit of interest to BP.

    Maybe it was designed to give more of a reward to those that play the most and win the most as opposed to those that get highest rank.

    What's your BPs? Mine is only 3361 but I just barely broke 1000 matches not too long ago (wins+losses) so I know I'm not going to catch up to a lot of you anytime soon.
    To check your BP just go into VF.TV->Rankings and go to VS: Battle Points (toggle rankings). Once there press X and your rank should pop up along with your BP.

    Hope this gets your competitive flames burning for some ranking matches, see you online /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

    Lol I didn't know you can press x I scrolled down to the bottom which took like 10-15 mins! I think I'm in the 1500 range can't check the accuracy right now, interesting to see where everyone's at indeed.

    You get 4 pts for a win, 1 point for a loss. It's just an accumulation thing... the more you play ranked (win or lose) the higher you'll be on the list. The order has nothing to do with skill.

    That's why I did this a couple of weeks ago:
    http://virtuafighter.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/237290#Post237290

    I was more interested in finding those who had achieved high ranks with very few battle points. i.e. they had a very high win percentage.

    VFnumbers being listed so high is starting to become like CreeD on VFDC. CreeD hasn't posted here since 2004 but he still has more posts than any one active here nowadays will ever get close to. (He showed up on the shout box late last night out of the blue.)

    Appently lurking off and on.... he didn't want to be too specific about where and what he's doing now... must be running from the law (again) /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

    So basically all the top 50 so are super n00bs, they have played 20,000 matches but can they win one? ....Nope /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

    I think Blahzie has like a 20% win ratio, kind of goes against that "the more you play, the better you get" saying.

    I don't know my Battle Points, can't check either. Will take me about 3 days to load the disc.

    EDIT: Just calculated my BP roughly from my wins/losses using the power of maths, seems about 8000ish.

    Myke is in front of him and Josh and Plague are just behind, they'll both pass him soon.... Unless CreeD starts posting again /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

    You're still in the top 20 AFAIK VFnos. CreeD used to live this site like you lived on XBL ranking... freakn roll out of bed and he's online argueing vociferously in CreeD's case or fighting Euros in yours. I bet CreeD will always have the most posts all time for a non-moderator here.

    Not that it matters, but my win ratio is over 69%.

    That's all. Carry on.

    Lmao!
    Smb, you could get soo far with Brad with just 2K+G and DMP+K. I suggest that you make a separate account though, cuz people WILL hate you, lol.

    But yeah, out of all the guys in the top of that list, Blahzie is one of the few who actually knows how to play.
