Hi,
As far as I can see from the help I should be in the ratings list after I have an experience of 50 or more. Well my experience is over 50 and I'm not in the list, as you can see from my terminal. Anyone know if I have to wait for some kind of update, or whether there is some kind of setting I have to change.
Thanks

Oh and as some people have already asked, it makes no diifference whether I'm ready to play or not.
Perhaps if you asked between 1665 and 1675 ???? OK, no, it doesnt work like that either, if you do rankings - it will tell you what your ranking is - then you can look around that. It may be that it doesnt settle until after the 400 match point when your rating stops varying wildly.
Other than that - why is it so important? You know where you are and what it is.... ;)
It's not really important, I suppose. But it would be nice to be in the list, that's all. I just wanted to check that it wasn't anything I was doing wrong.
Seems to me the command is wee bit messed up...

hmmmm
:wacko:
The way to do it seems to be to command 'ratings', which will tell you your ranking at the end, then do ratings around your ranking, then it gets something more meaningful...
