Pyramid Ladder vs. Linear Ladder

Submitted by Dragworm on Wed, 28/11/2007 - 18:55

All,

I'm currently running a hosted Linear racquetball ladder and all seems to be going well. However, I've noticed some of my ladder members near the bottom seem hesitant to challenge others.

The Pyramid ladder option says "dynamic challenge". I was wondering if anyone was running a Pyramid Ladder and if it automatically scheduleds matches between members (i.e. dynamically)?

If the Pyramid Ladder is truely dynamic, and automatically schedules matches, I would consider converting my ladder.

I'm intereated in your thoughts and ideas? Also, if I'd love to visit a site running a Pyramid Ladder. Therefore, if you're running a Pyramid Ladder, I would greatly appreciate it if you wouldn't mind sharing your URL.

Thanks,
Dragworm

Hi Dragworm,
I'm afraid the pyramid ladder isn't really working and isn't automatic. The idea of computer generated challenges is a good one and is in the to do list. I have seen a pyramid ladder in use (someone converted the code) but I can't recall where.
