What in the world does it take to gain a rank in this game?? In my profile I see all the other numbers change as I win or lose but the points to next rank number never seems to change.

it probably is changing but it takes so many points to move up one rank that unless you play a lot of games it will take forever. The rank you have is only determined in the "experience" point total--Your "skill" point total is different and that is what is used to place you in the list of "ranked" players and by "ranked" i mean what there place on the list is not what meaningless rank they have obtained thru the experience listing

Ja, I had the rest pretty much covered but made the mental mistake of tying the number of points I get for a game to that shown as points needed to next rank. So either Im playing nothing but low rent two bit players worth less than the AI (You know who you are!!!) or you need to make a hundred points in a game to advance your "to next rank" points by one. Makes it tedious for those of us who only have 5 or 6 games going at any one time. Anyway, no big thing, just one of those "Dho" moments.

And while Im at it, whoever is in charge of these things, WE NEED NEW MAPS!
