Current Rules
This is the Darktide PK Ladder:
Its Purpose:
Right now, I see so many people talk about how good they are but they won't back it up. In this ladder, if you want to move up in rank you need to challenge someone above you. Whoever wins gets his opponents 100 mmds. IE: If I am ranked number 8 and I challenge the number 7 spots we will do a best of 3 fight for 100 mmds. If he loses, he goes down to number 8 and I go up to number 7. I get his 100 mmds. If I, the challenger lose, I owe who I challenged 100 mmds for wasting their time. If the number 7 spot secretly knows the number 8 spot is better than him, he can just forfeit his spot, go down to number 8, and save himself some mmds.
This system will do something fantastic. It will allow the good pks to make money off trash talking noobs. Also, it will cause the trash talking noobs to shut up. It will also allow no names who are better than people give them credit for to make a name for themselves. If you think you are the best, earn your spot among the best. 100 mmds is not much and if you are actually better than your opponent you would want to fight them for 100 mmds because you can earn money off them.
Putting the Ladder into action:
The goal of this ladder is that it will work out itself. So to start, the top 20 will literally be the first 20 people who /sign this thread saying they want their name on there and what number they think they should be. If a number is chosen, pick a different one. Just be prepared to defend your rank with MMDS.
Challenges:
There are 20 spots:
Numbers 1-10 can only challenge the pk directly above him. If you want to keep challenging again and again you may once per week or more often if they let you, however, they will keep taking your mmds should you lose : )
Numbers 11-14 can challenge the number 10 spot or among themselves. Numbers 15-20 can challenge numbers 11-14. Anyone in game can challenge numbers 15-20.
Also, number 1-10 can accept a challenge (only if they want to) from anyone more than 1 spot below them. However, should they lose everyone below them will be bumped up one and they will take the spot of the person that beat them. Ex: Number 7 challenges number 4 and wins. Number 4 becomes number 7, number 5 becomes number 4, number 6 becomes number 5, and number 7 becomes number 6. This will allow higher ranking people to make extra money off lower ranking people.
Writing up a formal set of rules: I will be dedicating a Wiki Page to this ladder. It will have a detailed set of rules and the ladder itself. I and a few other trustworthy people will be able to log in and edit the ranks as fights occur.
Welching: Take screenshots of you challenging and your opponent accepting. Then take screenshots of killing them. If they welch they are banned from the list and their names will be added to a thief list.
Avoiding Fights: I will put down the specifics of this soon. I understand sometimes people are right about to log off or are doing something and they can't accept their challengers fight at the moment. However, for the moment if I deem people are trying to avoid their fights then I will lower them in rank. I will post specific rules on this soon.
Rule on fights:
NO LEVEL 8 PROTECTIONS. Until the current system is fixed by turbine you can use any epics/new spells you have with one exception: level 8 protections are not allowed. After turbine fixes them I will allow them.
Fights can be best of 1 or best of 3. Whoever is being challenged chooses.
