showing peak of a game in profile

[jigglypuffan]

its would be fun to be able to see in a profile player, the best rating he got for a game..

right now we can only see actual rating

You mean the ELO over time? You can see statistics for all games in your profile (My statistics for this game).

[jigglypuffan]

yes but you have to search all game..

me i would like a elo somewhere on a game that show the best elo you reached.

[jigglypuffan]

oh i see what you mean.. we can see with the graphic.

Please keep in mind that maximum ELO is pretty meaningless as an evaluation of skill. The amount it differs from your current ELO is rather an indication of luck influence in the game (and your luck streaks playing it).

Initially your ELO will have wild swings that don't necessarily reflect your skill level. Some games where I had early wins led to 300-400 ELO, but my ranks have now settled back into 100-200 range (I don't claim to be amazing at any particular games, I like to play lots of different things, so don't probably spend enough time with any game to get to expert levels), which is more reflective of my actual skill level. You want to see when you get a reasonable plateau on your games, as opposed to looking at the spikes.

i agree at catan i already raised to 320 and get back to 100 lol..

but i feel its still fun to see your maximum rank in your profile.. its a cool archivement to see you get to X elo

[Poison Pink]

There are some Elo based achievements like reaching 300 or 500 elo

[jigglypuffan]

i still think this should be added

i just get to 301 to lucky number and i dont feel like playing because i dont' wanna lower my rating.. having a peak number would remove this feeling of not wanting to play

You should have gotten a trophy when you reached 300, not much of a difference with a peak telling you you reached 301
