Pokemon Showdown Leaderboard (Proposal)

[jonnysurvives]

Typing this on my phone, so bear with me.

You can probably already tell what I'm about to propose from the title- a ladder, similar to Soul's clan leaderboard, in which you rank up or down by playing people above or below you. There would ideally be leaderboards for a range of tiers, which means that there would have to be rules stopping players who participate in multiple tiers from being flooded with challenges. Matches would be either Bo3 or Bo5 (not sure which is better), and would follow Smogon rules.

I understand that many players here play for fun. However, this is not meant to be overly competitive- rather a way of keeping the 'MCG showdown community' more active. There would be no shame in being at or near the bottom of the leaderboard, as it would be clear to everyone that you just preferred using fun and original mons/sets.

I myself don't really have time to run something like this, so if anyone believes they are qualified and able you are more than welcome to pick this up. This thread is more meant to gauge how many people would be up for it, and to find out what concerns people have that would first need to be addressed.

[I_love_desk]

I'd love to take part, haven't played pokemon in a while so I wouldn't mind trying to get into it. I also don't think it would be too time consuming or difficult to organise.
