How does the ranking system work?

Pure magic.

No, really, it does.

And your kills with each weapon, and deaths by certain weapons. It's quite the process.

I can't find my ranking. mike080697 Probably my score is to low to make the list?

I'm so amazing, I killed bluestar2 49 times. Mostly while he was helping me seed

Just wondering, why are there so many differences in my stats ingame and in psychostats. eg, I have about 650 kills / ~900 deaths in game but only 535/760 in psychostats. It shows that i have played 22 hours ingame but only 11 in pshychostats, and, most importantly, IT DOESNT REGISTER MY KILLS ON LIN. I have at least 15

I had a look. Gee, I killed Comet 8 times, he's like my #2 victim But you, only 4? It is also embarrasing because it shows my spade (thanks Noir) and fist deaths

It makes no sense why you are not ranked.

pyschostats must be old. It says im ranked like 455? but when i type rank ingame( i do often) im like 43rd?
i think it has to be a few days old, or something

Ingame is not the same at all. Totally different system working off totally different things.

Meaning, the in-game is processed much more, and has a weaker decay. It also tracks less players.

They are independent from eachother, mainly because the psychostats doesn't do ingame stats well for DoD.

The in-game ones update with basically each and every kill. The psychostats update every 2 hours, assuming a new log has been created since the last. This is different for CS:S, where it updates every 20 minutes or so due to contests and high player count.

They are both "right", they just rank differently. Psychostats has each kill you have ever done ever ever ever. The in-game ones only track the last X days (I forget) and might be less accurate.

I do like the fact that they show you where on the body you shoot most often
There is a lot of very cool little things they show you past deaths and kills

[mike080697]

Ive been following my stats for awhile and I'm more confused now than when I started playing.
I looked at page 13 of the psychostats <here>It just doesn't make any sense. Some have lower everything and they're above me. Bluestar2 should be way above some of the others. I'm not really caring about the stats per say, mine will probably always be bad. I just like to understand how things work.
I know Ryan covered this a few times but, I still don't get it.

[Why Two Kay]

Kill more people per minute.

Also if you have below 10,000 Skill points, you have LOST more than you have ever gained, since players start at 10,000. If you are below this, then you are (I can't put this well....) a poor player.

However, it also means a lot of people will be above you, since everybody starts above where you are now. You lose points for getting killed by lower-ranked players and weak weapons, and you gain more by killing higher ranked players with weak weapons.

[mike080697]

Now, that makes sense. I didn't know you started off with points.

And no, you didn't put it very damned well! Just kidding

Thanks

[WTBass]

Thanks Ryan...that does make sense. I have just spent some time really exploring the stats and they are very detailed!

[mike080697]

I just noticed my stats, they're not nearly as bad as they were yesterday. Did something get reset/refreshed?

I kick a-- now!

[Catfish]

Indeed, I jumped form like 900 to 200 something. Much more accurate, in my opinion.

[WTBass]

Wow...I got real good over the past couple of days...even though I haven't played!

[Fulcrum]

I'm guessing the decaying is taking effect.
