Question

How does the ranking in pool work. Seems like every time I beat someone my ranking is lowed instead of goin up

Answer 1

It shouldnt ever go down after beating someone. How much it goes up or down depends on your opponent's rating. Say your a 1500 and and you beat a 1050 player, it might stay the same. It will drop significantly if you lose to someone with that rating.

Answer 2

That is not the way it is meant to be. You should go up after you beat others ranked the same as you

Answer 3

its all supposivly put in a computer. it factors your score, innings and safety's. you can win every week but if you have a bunch of innings they wont change you. or say even if you lose but its a real close game and there are very very few innings you could get ranked up.  i've only lost 4 games in my last 24 and they still havn't changed my rank. we joke they accidently locked the save button on my file lol
