Yes it did take a dump my little
Here is my proposed amendment to our challenging system:
Top 3 rule: Top 3 spots have to challenge 1 ahead and only #3 can challenge #2...(only #2 can challenge #1)
*This would mean that #4 cant challenge for #2, but #'s 4 and 5 can challenge for #3. And so on down the ladder as normal.
Most of the Ik barbs have already noticed how close all our duels have been. I feel this rule would add a little stability to the top
of the ladder and provide a more "clear path" to #1. Lets face it.... #1 loosing to #3 and not being able to re-challenge for the #1 spot sucks....
Im open for more ideas and opinions on this one.... just keep things civil.....

I disagree strongly with this.
Will bog down the ladder tremendously.
I'm 100% against it.
Respectfully of course.
Slow ladders are not fun.
The ladders work incredibly well as is.
No need to slow down ladders any more than they all ready are.
A level 1 or 2 barb should be able to drop 2 positions just like everyone else.
And like others said, if the loser wants their rank back, take it

Prove they earned that rank to begin with.
The 24 hour penalty after a loss is also needed to.
Removing that is just another way to make a ladder slower and prevent oppurtunity for advancement.
Once again....
If you get challenged immediatley after a loss... tough, defend yourself. Win and make the next guy wait 24 hours.

All this about falling to the bottom of the lkadder, it happens and we get back up and do the grind again.
We've all taken a few hard losses and dropped half a ladder before. We've all climbed back up too.
It's just something that happens. Can't win 'em all.
Minor changes like this aren't actually minor.
They slow the ladder down a lot.
This is why we have the 24 hour rule remember?
People couldn't crack the top ranks.
This will do the same thing guys.
I vote 100% no on this rule
No changes are needed.
The rules are as such to keep the ladder flowing and fair and it works well.
This will be my one and only rant about this.
