Thoughts on MP

Great idea. We may not even need an entire league website after all. We could probably just dedicate a section of the forum to it where the game times are announced and the fitness reports etc. could be posted.

Why not assign a rank to the players on MP. You get points/promotions for scenario play that would be your initial rank. You could co-mingle this data with MP commander recommendations and then have the rank displayed with the players info. This would also allow some handicapping where a lesser player might player more advanced player, the lesser player on a easier setting and the advanced player on a harder setting.

I dislike the idea of handicapping. Not all scenarios are equal. Why not set up some historical OOB's where the less experienced player plays defense? I find that playing offense takes a great deal more skill, not to mention hand to keyboard coordination.

What I really need is to make the program output some sort of stat file that I can post. I'll have to think about this. But to have the complete stats available on the website could be very cool.
