You really are thick as a brick, or are you incapable of reading?

Just an absolutely stupid comeback !!
How does any player have 2 ratings on one site !!

Several attempts by several members to try to reason with you have only resulted in you coming back with the same drivel !!

Are you a parrot ???

Finding a way to manage a player's rating in clan challenges doesn't solve the problem of your clan challenges
with Anti-Metallica, Breaking Bad or Arrow clan where your opponents
resign games after 2 moves or just let the clock run out.
Games less than 3 moves in length are unrated games anyways !!
Mctayto and Vespin do NOT lose rating points by resigning games in the first 2 moves.

The issue here is NOT your obsession with sandbagging !!
It is other clans handing your clan challenge points on a platter with pre-arranged challenges.

There is no software fix that will solve this.
This site needs referees, just like all sports do.

Of course, you will make this all about Metallica again !!
Have fun with that !!

OMG! how does a person have two ratings on one site???? that is your best line of reasoning? thats all you have? the pinnacle of your powers of discernment? It begs belief, it really does. To contemplate how dim you must really be is to go back to the stone age and see you chipping away at some flint rock trying to make a bone for your nose.

We have two ratings already, our present one and a tournament entry rating, duh? Did you really think about that post before you transferred it from one brain cell to the other through that overworked synapse of yours? My goodness you are dim!

Maybe the tournament rating and clan rating be the same one?

Silverstriker,
Lets say that was done. Now all players have to do is get their tournament rating down to where they are hundreds of points lower than their true rating. Then that can be used for their clan rating also.

The Clan Leaders would really have to be sharp,to weed out the SANDBAGGERS!!! As we know not all are that bright!

Luckily for us we have one of the best Clan Leaders/Captains I've played for on any site. I've been a co-captain myself on another site, so I know the work that is put into it. It takes a lot of your time, or at least it did mine. Not always easy to find the sandbaggers, especially if they have done so since joining a particular site.

Good point with the faults as i didn't consider the sandbagging (either innocence or stupidity probably the later on my part).

There has to be a way somehow that we can avoid lots of different numbers everywhere - i see they have it in the clubs where people play each other?

How about having the Matchup (the 200 point limit) to the highest rating over the last year or the average?

Genuine question from some "island lackey" that another of your clan seems to be calling me at the moment 😛

But as you say, Very Rusty, some of them, and I have one in particular in mind, are really not that bright at all. The history of such sandbagging and of their general inanity is there for all to see, especially when their name and even photo is out in public view on chess or social media site.
