New Site

[Major BS]

The new site looks great. A couple of quick questions though:

1. When I went to my profile, I realized I had been "promoted" one rank sooner than expected. In other words, the last time I checked the table of ranks I didn't have enough points to get to where my profile shows me. Has the table of ranks scoring changed somehow?

2. When I tried to go to the table of ranks to confirm...I couldn't find it. I'm sure I'm just getting used to the changes, but it is still there somewhere, correct?

Once again, kudos on the website. It looks fantastic and I'm sure I'll while away more time from work than usual look at all the new eyecandy!

Yeap,the rank is correct ;) The current rank works somehow different than the old one(s).In the past you would have one rank for each ladder you played.You could have been Colonel on ladder A and a captain on ladder B.Now,there is only one 'global' rank which combines all your points from all the ladders you're playing and much more.You might regard the current rank as a 'site' rank(where all your contributions are listed) rather than a ladder rank.
In your particular case,i see you have 1079 on the CS ladder and another 65 from bonuses.You need 1100 to be ranked as a Sergeant.Obviously the bonus points did the trick :)
The table of ranks hasn't been converted yet to the new format.Expect to see it in the next couple of days,though.

Actually on second look Raz, that math is incorrect. I have 1014 points from regular play + 65 bonus points = 1079 total points. So I have not reached the 1110 points necessary to acheive sgt. yet.

The explanation that the ladders combine ranks is irrelevant as I only play on one ladder.

End result: There must be a bug here somewhere, as I haven't reported a game since the new site went "live." Yet, somehow, without making any score changes, I've jumped from corporal to sergeant. Weird. No new points should equal no new rank and the only variable is the change in the site.
