Pairing system for the variants

Sort:
Kochira

So, the paring system for the variants does not allow the player to know who he or she will play against, and it seems like rating is irrelevant as anyone can join any created match. What is happening is that A LOT of players simply refuse to play against me(probably because of the rating difference) and as they dont know that the match was created by me, they just enter the room and leave without playing, and when they create a match and I enter they room(without knowing, obviasly), they also leave without playing.

I already tryied banning those players, but it seems like it doesn't stop them from entering my games.

As I do believe the ban part is a bug, I will really appreciate if this issue receives some attention.

The ban part is a bug? Also, you can't ban those members. Try to block them. But +1 to this idea you can't even know who are you playing against.

Blocking is not yet enabled in variants, we hope to get that up soon though, so you won't get paired with players you block (or that block you). The reason is that there are very few players on variants, and people tend to block a lot - which means it can take much longer to find opponents.
Also we will add the option to set a rating ratings in the future. As for now it's +/-400

It doesnt matter rating, if you play well. My rating is 1800+ and i can beat most 1900+ players and sometimes 2000+ ones in anti

you know, in 2200 antichess range there are only 10- 15 players, we have to farm using lower rated player(altough we might lose) so -1

If you just farm lower rated players then you can't improve much

Rating is relative to the base of players, I just want to play without losing my time to people that dont wanna play me

 we don't always farm, and lower rated players means people on 2k range
