erm, If you have 1 kill to 0 deaths you actually have an infinite KDR, meaning it can't be beaten, so that wouldn't work
Err  no, you have a ratio of 1:0.

I think we can come up with something suitable and fair but as I said it's there to indicate that kills and deaths are gonna be important, not team points or flags.
try doin the maths: 1 divided by 0 is undefined or infinite. 40 divided by 1 is 40, therefore lower KDR
we can figure some way out, like if a person goes 7:2, we give him 3.5 'points'. if someone goes 7:0, instead of giving 7 points, we could double that and give 14 points. or something along those lines

time has been names, the place needs to be tested. Get on the server I named and check you're ping, If we don't get any unplayable pings (or only a few) then I'll give you an IP and port for that machine. If it looks no good then I'll set up a server on the other machine (shouldn't be a difference but you never know).

Or we could avoid any chance of irrational numbers and subtract deaths from kills.

Good point, I need some way to know who the serious competitors are.

I have started a thread to gather the names and stat links of all players who think they will be one of the best on the day. I've had to put it on my forum so I have the appropriate control over the posts, sorry but this will mean registering.

Here's a link to the thread and the contents:

Ok, you probably know about the sniper competition that we're hosting (if not read about it here or here).

This thread is for serious competitors to make themselves known.

Anyone can join (up to the limits) but by putting your name here you are saying that you think you stand a shot (pi) at proving to be one of the best on the day. We will be looking out for you in particular, we will make sure we mix you among the teams for each round and we will be expecting great things of you.
Please post your player name and a link to your stats. If too many post to be tracked then the best stats will get priority over the worse.


If you just want to come along for the fun the please DO NOT POST HERE.
Comments and the like can be posted in the threads linked to above but will be removed from this thread.
So if you want the preferential treatment please put your name on the list, otherwise we'll just assume you're along for a laugh (more than welcome).

Don't forget that the UK is NOT in the GMT timezone at the moment, we're in BST. GMT is there for reference only (unless you are in Iceland).

We can review at the time.

Are we reserving slots or something b/c wats with the profiles. As far as I know though, for the most part everyone has decided on regular conquest with the best KDR to figure out the winners. I could be wrong though. Well, just to join in:

Son let me tell you one thing. I'm on the east coast of the U.S. with 512 ram and a 256mb 6600 Nvidia GeForce....the server is in Europe or something like that, do you think that I stand a chance? No....but will I quite? no, why? because I have spent countless minutes trying to find dont_be_ss to kill him. I did once, but the lag was unbearable.

So my advice is....yeah this post is pointless.
