OK, copy paste from one of my earlier posts:

I would like to find a way to combine the good things of the ELO point days with the good things about the current point system. During ELO days, playing lots of games wasn't needed but there were other things that made me retire during those months anyway. What if, for the members, you could chose what your player profile is.

1) casual (but addicted) player: 2500 starting points, unlimited number of games allowed
2) semi-competitive player: 10000 starting points, only allowed to play 500 tables or higher, maximum 150 games total, 80 (or 100) games minimum with at least 20 (or 25) of 2500 games
3) competitive player with not much time to play: 25000 starting points, only allowed to play 2500 tables or higher, maximum 60 games total, 40 games minimum with at least 10 10k games

If you don't play your minimum number of games required, your score is not taken into account for the leaderboard. I doubt beginning players that take option 3 will end up with a lot of points in the end so what?s the harm. As a result of this new point system: we will have much more 2,5k and 10k games (woohoo for the people that like big stakes), beginning players won't complain any more about "elite" players roaming around the 500 tables, skilled players without the time to play 300 games a month have again a good shot at the leader board.

An average of 5-10 games each day isn't too much. The most important is what aren't you doing while playing kdice. I used to play instead of watching TV from 10 to 12 P.M.

The danger for me is the number of american friends I've met here, with his weird schedules... that really can affect my sleep time.

Btw, this month I'm not playing an it's healthy too.

I think the different league play is a great idea.

and yeah, there's more than a few people who have an unhealthy addiction to this game. I'm actually pretty glad I'm trying to get over it.

Or maybe you should create an alternate KDice universe for the insanely addicted. It could be called KLife.

I like the idea of having league play. Even maybe tournements that start with 49 players and the 7 winners play together and then the winner gets a certain amount of points? like poker? i dunno i just know that when i see people that waste 6 hours of their lives playing kdice...it scares me...

I am rather certain bombardier is actually like 10 different people, so its really only 36 minutes a day for each of them : P

and how much time have I wasted reading this post?

let people play if they want to play.

what would we do with our work day if kdice wasn't here?

PS - posted from work. :)

i was kinda hoping bombardier would respond to this and defend himself...like maybe tell us that his job is actually ryan's secretary and he's supposed to be on kdice as much as possible to make sure it's functioning properly

lol

ps fixed game amount competition sounds great.
