<p>Just a thought. Why not create a sort of ladder system that gives you a fairly generous number of points (say 10,000 to start) and you gain or loose points dependent on match results. For each death, the killer gains 1/1000th of the looser's score and the dead looses 1/1000th of their score. The winners of a match gain the point difference between the two teams, and the loosers subtract an equal amount.</p><p>The score system is used to match teams for events trying to even the overall score as much as possible. So if a pre-made group enters the queue it might have a combined score of 120,000 (about 20,000 per member). The system will look for either another team close to their score, or try to make a group to match out of high scoring individuals. It won't select a group of 6-10,000 point noobs to throw against them.</p><p>Likewise, if your on a loosing streak your going to be thrown against people that have been doing poorly as well, or match up with some real winners to even the scores.</p><p>This shouldn't affect gameplay except for making the matching system more difficult on the BG server. It should result in more exciting matches.</p>
