How do you "promote" from rookie to veteran? How many "promotions" are there and how are they named? And most important of all: How do you become "School Girl Pinup"?!?

Note to self: make sure to start every game with "PLEASE, DON'T KILL ME!!!!"

Current Honoraries:
Deathwing - Da gossapa (due to his having posted twice as much as anyone except...)
Galak Starscraper - Da Numba Kruncha (being the expert on BB history, and a general maths nerd - no offence meant Tom)
Norse - Da Organiza (one of the two men behind the TalkBloodBowl.com invitational tournament, which was won by...)
Marcus - Da Tulip Champ (who won said tournament, in Amsterdam last month. Bloody good fun it was too.)
Acerak, Neoliminal, Milo, Angus McKee, Andy Hall, Babs - Rulz Guru (these are six of the seven members of the Blood Bowl Rules Committee. The seventh - Jervis Johnson himself - doesn't, as far as we know, post here. I'd imagine he looks by occasionally though.)
Voyagers-UK, myself and Anthony TBBF are all getting towards the 1000 post mark...and only have four stars each. I'm wondering if there is something at the 1001 post mark...we'll see in a couple of weeks or so.
If there isn't then by that stage we might get our own honoraries, like da Paint masta for Anthony (best painted team at Ressurection, organized the TBB painting contest), Santa for me (my dwarf team were made famous on here a couple of months ago thanks to everyone deciding that my Deathroller driver looks like Santa Claus. A very pissed off santa claus. he's still on show...the thread is in the minitures section) and something equally silly for Voyagers...dunno what though.

Starting date is "soon"
We were aiming for August but we are a bit behind but working hard to wrap it up!
The ranking system is based on a formula that make me cry every time I look at it, but the simple explanation is that it's based on the world Chess ranking system. Basically you starty off withg a rating and can gain or lose points from that rating depending on the rating of the person you play.
Neo can explain it better, in fact if you do a search you can probably find on that's already posted.

Large tourneys will be more important in terms of ranking than small ones..
The basic idea is that for each game you play, you can change at max K in rating. K = 2*sqrt(num_of_coaches). So, for a 16 team tournament, you'll be able to win or lose at most 2*4*number_of_games rating.
The actual change in rating per game is based on result and win probability, so the only way you will be able to win/lose the max number of points is if you have a 100% chance of winning and lose or if you have a 0% chance of winning and win.
Very nice formula if you ask me
