Ideas for TougeBattles?

READ OR DIE

I am sure some of you know about GameBattles or were a part of the competition hype at some point in your gaming career (probably with Halo or Call of Duty). I am proposing a TougeBattles leaderboard on the Battle Lounge forum (I posted this here because this is only a draft).

What is the TougeBattles leaderboard?
Since a Battle Lounge exists for players to officially challenge each other, I thought it would be a cool idea to create a leaderboard where players are numbered in ascending order from the most wins to the most losses.

What would the TougeBattles leaderboard look like?
Example:
1) Bunta Fujiwara......................∞ - 0
2) Takumi Fujiwara...................15 - 0
3) Keisuke Takahashi.................8 - 1
4) Ryosuke Takahashi................2 - 1
5) Kyoichi Sudo...........................0 - 3

For the records to be legitimate, the battle results NEED to be recorded in the Personal Record Database OR the Team Record Database for a TougeBattles TEAM leaderboard.

I believe this is a great way to get drivers motivated for racing in the touge against competitive opponents who are also aiming to be at the top of the leaderboards.

The sooner this becomes official the better because as of now nobody has made a database in the Battle Lounge, thus making it easier to update the board when somebody makes a new one.

For fairness, people who have never battled before CANNOT be on the leaderboard. This is because it would be unfair to anyone who has battled and lost. Imagine being ranked lower than someone who has never raced, sucks doesn't it?

My fear is that people won't want to do official battles for fear of being ranked at the bottom of the leaderboard if they lose. I don't want this to happen so that is why this is a mere draft.

If you have any ideas on how to improve this then post it!

Also if you think this is a bad idea please post your reasons, I am very open to criticism

I have had the go ahead for a ladder on the Aussie gaming website cybergamer, just need to get proof of interest. Personally i prefer the layout on cybergamer.

Haha I love the infinity sign by Bunta's name! It's only right!

I know you've already said it, but I say do it a bit more like GB and start everyone at 1,000 XP and make a table for how much XP someone will gain and lose, depending on who they battle. The leader board is a great idea.

With the site i can get us a ladder on you can choose to have it as a points system like GB or you can choose to have a you win you overtake method. I.E. 5th place vs 1st, 5th wins, he goes to first, and 1st goes to 2nd.

It can easily be done in Google Docs. It'd look similar to this. Very easy to edit. Type in some numbers and it re orders it for you.

This is what I use for my Great Debate drift tourney over on FM.net.

I can also open it up so moderators can edit the brackets also.

Ryosuke, please make me a sig of Fujiwara's 86 like that. I'll get you a pic later this week.

^Lol @ the thought of Takumi's 86 with a RedSuns badge

What i was thinking.

Well actually Kraze, I was planning on making this or incorporating this.

On the player records, we were going to order them with the win % so it basically would be the same thing

^Ah that's cool I didn't know then that works out too I guess

How will you get Gamebattles to put this ladder up though?

I also have been using gamebattles for quite a long time so if ya wanna shoot some ideas with to me, we can think of a cool way do make it work, PM your ideas and what your thinking

That's what the cybergamer ladder will look like, if i get maybe 10 people sign something i should be able to get a ladder.

An Official Ladder I don't think would work and also be complicated, I've seen how gamebattles does it, and its something that would be difficult.

Making our own on here would be enough

Ah ok fair enough, it's just that i could probably get Admin on there.

Plus linking people to another site won't be easy, we need to get people on here first

Again I had this idea. You click on the series standings.

I was kidding haha. I wouldn't want that. I would like a sig with an 86 in it though.

The site I like to use is, http://forzastats.com/Player You can just type in a players gamertag and it gives you all the times they have set as long as they are in the top 300 on a certain track.

I think hardcore gets rid of leaderboard cars or something like that.

Honestly? I don't really know myself. Thought it was either certain cars or difficulty settings but that appears to not be the case.

hard core is based off of not using assists
but sim steer and braking only line don't count because they wouldn't have a leader bored if they did

i have 4 no1 times in hardcore because i dont use traction control or with clutch in higher classes
here is a good example of what i mean

Well that explains it, the site can be a bit confusing sometimes. Another question, whats with those circles near the top of someones profile? I can only assume they are gamertags or something.
