Not impossible, quite doable.

Two 0 point accounts on their first game.

Maybe someone should go try that out on LAN or something, and see if it's random or not.

COMMANDER SCORE

my impression anyway......

it selects who applied with the highest commander score, who doesn't hit page up when it ask you, then the second one in line gets the spot

I'm still pretty sure it's the one who hits apply first.

It does this to me all the time, that just means he applied a certain ammount of time before you.

The thing appears at the bottom to ONLY 1 PLAYER AT THE TIME. After checking ranks, if they are the same, I'm pretty sure its the last one that applied that gets it. The servers probably dont import badges, points, etc. when u join, only the rank, the name and the unlocks. Also, once i was fking around on an empty unranked with a friend, then i applied to commander spot, and told him "hey i just applied for commander" so I gave him the idea to apply too, he did apply and got the commander spot, and he applied after me for sure (note that we were 2 privates on an unranked).

Who hit the button first has more to play in who gets it then rank a lot of the time. I get shafted by people all the time who I out rank by a lot, and have like 150-200,000 more points then them. It doesnt happen *all* the time, but it happens enough to be rather annoying.
Wow, wouldn't have expected that. And you get the same message us lower-rankers do, right?

See, we have to be careful about making suppositions because that's how myths get started. Like you have to score a point in SF to get the tier-two unlocks.

It could be as simple as that.

1. Rank
2. Global score
3. Who applied first
4. If same ranked players with same score apply at the same time I think server can crash...

Ive had other 1st Sarges get the job over me, and it says 'A player with a higher rank than yours has filled the commander position.'

So points only.

global score has nothing to do, I've commanded enough to know that, only the rank matters, i got beat by players with the same rank as mine just before getting a promotion many times, so it is very unprobable that the players had higher global scores than me.

As I said there, I have good reasons to think that when the ranks are the same, its the last one that applies that gets the commander spot, whatever are the player's global scores. Maybe some people can try this, go on an empty server with fresh accounts and apply many times trying diffenrent ways, like one can apply first one time and another one applies first the next time. Then, make a few points with an account and see if that account has an absolute priority or not on the commander spot. I'd like to hear about the results if someone tests it.

Its whoever presses the button first.  A funny thing happened to me back in 1.12 when they added the 2nd Lt. rank in, I could get commander position from my mate who was a 2nd Lt. while I was still a Sgt Major.
