The game is so much easier early in the week and gets harder closer to weekend. I get up to 1200 or so with little playing and a fun deck for mission and still win quite a bit, and later I need to play one of my better decks to improve my rating. The rule is designed to stop people farming early against the newer players and then sit for the week to milk the 10 credits.]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (URHunter)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[SoPunny-Zack]]></title><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jun 2010 23:14:21 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[00:13 <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">Elo</a>  you lost against LmL-MaTiAs, La Morada Legendaria (0-6): 1195 <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a><br />

Otherwise, people will simply play to 1300 (or whatever score) by Monday, and sit on their scores for the rest of the week.<br />
<br />
there is a a simple solution to your dilemma is to wait till Friday/Saturday to play your <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a> matches... and once you get to 1310 or so stop playing, you are safely into the 1300 and you will win the 10 credits on Sunday.<br />
<br />
Dont let this discourage you. When i started, the goal was just to get 1000 after 5 matches... when that got easy, the next goal was 1200, when that got easy 1300.... and now that is pretty easy.... but 1400+ still requires a lot of skill luck and time for me.]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (wasteroftime)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></comments></item><item><title><![CDATA[SoPunny-Zack]]></title><pubDate>Sat, 05 Jun 2010 23:05:26 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Im gonna make this a petition to stop it.

I was on 1300 <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a> and look what happened because of it:<br />
  23:53 <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">Elo</a>  you lost against RainReader B, CN Beans (0-6): 1219 <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a> <br />

It totally ruined my chances at FINALLY getting over 1300 on <a href="http://www.urban-rivals.com/game/rules.php?show=elo">ELO</a>, because of -2. So, just thought I'd say, thanks. <span class="sprite-smileys mini1_angel iepng"></span>]]></description><guid><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></guid><author><![CDATA[no-reply@urban-rivals.com (SoPunny-Zack)]]></author><comments><![CDATA[http://www.urban-rivals.com/community/forum/?mode=viewsubject&id_subject=1457687&language=2]]></comments></item></channel></rss>
