We are about to launch a rated game with several players, including me in, and also, all the players at Keygen's Alien Crossfire and Keygen's Classic PBEM games have agreed to be rated. I'm now waiting for their initial ratings.

1. Stuntman
2. Keygen
3. Nanuk
4. Reggy
5. Black Sunrise
Keygen's Alien Crossfire (2158):

2. Solver
3. Tau Ceto
4. Googlie
5. Big Canuk
6. Misotu
7. Mark13
CMN: Aeredhran
Game not yet in progess, just about to start.
For more on the rating system, refer to the Ladders topic by Solver in the AC-Multiplaying forum. And, here are some of the fundmental rules. All the rules are in one of my posts at Ladders, but I will include the rules here as well over time.
Initial ratings for the players: this depends on the highest SMAC/X AI level ever defeated by the player as follows: Citizen = 14, Specialist = 16, Talent - 17, Librarian = 18, Thinker = 19, Transcend = 21.
Delinquency rule:
If a player doesn't play his turn in 24 hours, he is delinquent, and gets a next-turn from the previous play, to send the turn to the next one. Each time a delinquency occurs, the player loses 0.1 (one tenth) rating points. If there's explanation present either on the forum or in my mailbox, no penalty is applied. Explanation include things like lost Internet connection, Windows problems, etc.
As in CtP, I have no time to monitor all of the rated games, so please, when a player is delinquent either post the fact at the respective ratings thread, or email that to me.
Know this sounds terrible, but as experience shows, it ain't that hard .
Elimination Rule:
Idea by Quinns.
If a player is:
a) Eliminated
b) Changes status in the game from rated to unrated
c) Gets end-turned three times in a row with no explanation,
then each remaining player defeats him 3 times.
Transcend Rule:
If a player completes the Ascent to Transcendence sequence, he defeats each remaining player three times.
This thread is also meant for all of you to post anything about the system. OK, enjoy, as for now, I have nothing else to give you.

You can add me at 21.0. I would be interested in participating in a rated game. Will do any faction except Believers and Morganites.

As I promised, I rate these games, and Keygen, you have the rating of 20, as I told you.
Now I go with OFFICIAL SMAC PBEM RULES ADDITIONS:
1. Initial Rating Rule
This is after what happened with Nanuk here. When a player is asked for his initial rating, a countdown laucnhes. Deadline is one week. If there's no response by that time, player will receive a rating of 18, and from now on his rating will change only due to wins-losses, he won't be able to change the 18 initial rating.
This is to prevent cases like Nanuk's and several similar ones in CtP, when I had to wait for even up to 20 days for player's initial rating.
2. Posting AC Score
First time that the SMAC game is rated, now with Keygen's Classic PBEM Game, everyone posts his scores to the forums. From now on, this will not happen again.
When the M.Y. 2**0 comes (2160, e.g.), CMN of the game will open turn of each player in a row, see what his AC score is, and either post that data in the current SMAC Ratings thread (this one at the moment) OR send this to my email address. This will make work of CMN a bit harder, I think, but that's how they will have to live from now on  .
3. Rating a game
Previously, also to be seen in the "Ladders" topic:
To rate a game, at lest 3 players must agree for the specific game to be rated. Players might continue to play unrated in any game, then they will not be counted in during calculations.
When a new game is rated, the game moderator (usually the game starter, CMN) should post it at the current ratings thread or email it to me.
Addition:
Data to be specified when a new game is rated:
Player's Apolyton aliases (NOT SMAC aliases), in sequence which they play their respective turns.
If a player has a rating. If not, either CMN can ask him for the initial rating, otherwise I will do that, as usually.
Unrated players are specified in parenthesses.
CMN of the specific PBEM is also to be specified.
Game's official name.
Turn on which the game should start to be rated.
Example:
Rated Game Example (M.Y. 2157):
Players:
AH - already rated
BC - initial rating - Librarian
OL - no rating data
IP - already rated
(SM)
Game CMN: CMN
For now, these are all the additions.
Rating supdated with Nanuk and Keygen.

I played my 2140 turn in the Keygen's Classic Game on Jan 31, and was not aware of having to post my score.
I'm still unsure whether we do this or a CMN does to confirm it is correct. I also have a save of a transcend victory if it is needed to varify my starting postion.

I don't have his score and I won't have it for 3 more weeks as he is on vacation!
And I don't see the reason why we sould punish him while he haven't yet started getting rated!
And I can't understand why we should force him to get rated. If he doesn't bother to reply then he doesn't bother to get rated too.
And I should tell you that he didn't care whether he got rated or not.
DO NOT RATE HIM!!!

Also Velociryx and Zsozso, if they ever decided to play PBEM again. Probably some ACOL guys too, but I do not know them so well...
