You now need 2500+ points to maintain the first page. Which definitely means that competition is getting stiffer. More people are finding ways to rank up and maintain their rank. I remember when there were less then 20 majors total which was what 2500 pts used to get you before the change. Also only about 7 Colonels when 3000 pts was required. Now there is 190 something Colonels(majors before) and 40 or so Brigadiers(colonels before).

It isn't really so much as stiffer competition (there is a bit of that), but moreso the fact that there is some point inflation occuring.

I posted this because my brother asked me to. He can not post in the forums currently. He wanted me to make this thread so I did. Now let's keep on topic and watch it with the subtleties, shall we?

When I first joined 2200 was good enough for the top 50-100 easily.You had 10 or less over 3k.Those days are long and gone.Now everyone is scoring a ton of points.

I'd agree 3k is not what it used to be.

If 3,000 is "nothing", then why are you barely above that?

^Wow! You're from another timezone.
Probably, the new gold standard is 4000 or 4500 pts.

I suppose that it is due to new recruits coming to the place, joining 4 fremium games, and losing some points that "enter" the system. After that they leave forever, but the points stay.

Alright, but I've beaten you twice now and you still haven't taken me.
The score difference is that I have always had a very low game count, especially compared to JR. 3000 is much harder when you play a few 6 player standards at a time.
