My suggestion: Players in the Top Ten must play at least once every 2 days. If they don't they are automatically dropped five rungs and their inactivity counter is reset. There are no exceptions to this rule.

My other suggestion:

Top Five

Members in the Top Five are required to play at least five (5) Ladder matches per day. Tournament matches do not count towards this requirement.

  that can not work because there are a lot of players that have to work durning the week and some that work on week ends. and as for the ladder games go giovanna no one has to play ladder games and as long as they play gin on gdgin and supporting the ladder all should count
  myself i play a ladder game every so offten i play in tournaments and not ladders games. so what i am saying it is not fair to others.

  Top 5 suggestion:

  Once we are back to 300 games per day this could be of interest of putting in, but currently with a struggle to even get a match this wont help anything and we would sit with an empty top 5 and only count ranks from 6 and forward.

  Changing the dropping time from 7 to 2 days is also a huge step when the average games played is only at around 20 or so per day.

  We need more games played per day before we should look into those things and thats why we will put the 3 games per day into effect starting next week, to see if that will help on activity on the ladder.

  I agree with the top 10 rule as far as playing only once every 7 days, it does need to be reduced, but I think 3 or 4 days would be sufficient. Larger ladders have 1 day or 2 day rules for the top 10, we however don't have the numbers and whomever may be in the top 10 at any given time may not be able to play every day or every other day. This ladder is a little more laidback with play and trying to get the top 10 on at the same time would be difficult for some people.
  As far as the top 5 playing 5 non-tourney ladder matches every day, Heck I don't play 5 games a day regaurdless of where I am at on the ladder ... lol. My schedule is pretty hectic at times and there are some days I can't or don't even get online.
  I do understand why you would liketo see more action in the form of ladder play GIOVANNA, really I do, but this ladder at the moment just does not have the players to sit in the auto-report room waiting for another palyer to show up. The tournaments are the only time when the players know when each of the other players will be playing, and we still have a hard time getting 4 to play. I had to cancel all 3 of my tourneys lastnight because I had only 2 players come and sign up in the 2 1/2 hours that I sat there waiting. The only thing I can suggest as to more ladder play is too catch the players between tourneys which are spread at 45 minutes.
  I am not trying to go against what you are saying GIO, but we need to get more players on the ladder before start talking about GSR's. I am on your side as to getting more games for us, the more we play, the better it is for everyone. I just think we have a lack of players right now.

  Thats just my opinion ... I could be wrong

  Thanks for your suggestions. The Op team will take them into consideration based on what it seems the other players feel in response to this post.

  Thanks for your time, and for your concern about this ladder.

  Sincerely,

  My suggestion is that ladder should not be the only game to be played by top 5 players. Players should be participating in tourneys as well. We need the support to built our league to the way it was when I started so please play more tourneys.

    Please also remember that this ladder is made up from players in diffrent time zones, so what time is good for some is not for others so trying to make the top 5 play 5 ladder games a days is total stupidity in my view unless anyone want to play at 4, 5 or 6am EST thats good times for me.

    Might I suggest you also read my post on here from 27th of last month to your sugestion then.
