Forgetting that they may win some, there is at least 1647 points in all; lost by them, gained by . . . whom . . .?
Plus the other accounts that have scores in the 40-100 range there is a significant amount of points floating around . .
How many accounts have been created to-date ?
(I noticed 2 of the lowest scores are the same person).
yea man that would be me when id get in the 2os or so id get a new account and i have around 3 -5 but im doing good now so no worrys
I need to play some more - maybe I'll get on that list =P

High Score List total: 10902 points
Average Score per high scorer: 545.1
^^^Thats who gained the points ;)^^^
Bored, so I calculated that out in case anyone was wondering. I know how much everybody loves math.
But I agree, Konig, that the 40-100s are picking up the slack.
Hello.
10902
- 1647
9255
Not withstanding the "losses/wins possibilities" and forget the guests who take and give points;
pretend everyone with a point score between 40-100 has 60 points (just a example).
40 points lost from that group - and gained by others. Now, (not including guests)
231.375 <--- People needed for approximate points in the total high score list
40) 9255
That is a lot of people playing . . . How many accounts have been created?
Wait. I almost forgot all the people below the top 20 list, there must be say 10-30 more users with somewhere under the lowest high score list, say 180-240 points
In summation, Where the Shisno (RvB reference) are all these points coming from?

All the hard working, honest duelboard players. Why? Is there a problem? ???
I would love to hear other people's thoughs on this post, if anyone is willing to share.
There's not much we can conclude without seeing the entire score-table with however many hundred people on it.
ok u guys..i hate to burst your lil learning math bubble.. but your forgetting about the points that are given out by players who are at lvl 2... they stay at lvl 2 and u go up.. theres also guests... they give out points.. but there points resest everytime they enter..

Guests have the POTENTIAL to both add points and take points out of the system. If a guest wins a match, that's less points. Again, the purpose of a guest name is to try the game. A few games is enough to determine whether or not a person likes the game. But I know of several players who play as guests and win.
And a player at 2 points still can win games. They still shouldn't be loosing vast amounts of points. Let's say a level two player wins 10% of the time. In 100 one on one games, that's 160 points lost. So, are you telling me that the bottom players are loosing hundreds of games?
Fact is duelboard doesn't have the ammount of active players to support all the points. The system isn't designed so everybody wins, yet that's the way things seem to be.
It's obvious, people are multi-naming.
Look at the Top 10, the majority of them have "disappeared". I know for a fact that skin and kaoss are one and the same.
And suddenly people like Waylan and Reg50 come along and zoom up the charts like wildfire. I have a feeling that Waylan and Reg50 have more than one name.
i dunno about reg but waylans not cheating... and whats more then 1 name have to do with it u cant give yourself pts can u? anyways waylan is just a good player... he was on top list on the old cyber wars too..
Bakster you ARE an idiot. i had about 3000 points on gamesdomain aswell and im good and i play a lot.. thats why im moving up the table fast. Just because it doesnt take me 700 games and 3 months to do it like you ive GOT to be cheating. Well done for wasting more of your time than me and still having less points ;D
People who play for points are pathetic one way or another. I know that sounds ironic coming from me, but just because I dont play for points doesnt mean I dont win.

Bakster, how do you "know for a fact" that skin and kaoss r the same people?
They act exactly the same way, and as soon as kaoss left, this person called skin came in.
The you don't "know for a fact". Its just an assumption... or maybe a coincidence.
I talk to Kaoss every once in awhile on MSN. I haven't talked to him in awhile. He is probably busy with his career, life, other games, etc. Why would he stop playing on his name and start over without informing anyone?
well for one, once you get a certain amount of pts ppl start teaming on you and say things like "well since abc is gonna end up winning in the end anyways, i say we just kill him now".
It really does make a difference if someone thinks you are a n00b compared to someone who is experienced.

It happens way too much on shizmoo, hiding on new usernames. Guess it's not the same here. My bad.
Bakster, im sure you feel outnumbered here, but don't worry about it, you said something controversial and started a good conversation/debate. I have played with Reg and Waylan though, and I can't see why either of them would cheat, they are both good players.Â
im at number 8 :)
heh wish i cud see a list of all the cheaters
