T/O Rank and Helper Rank?

TappedOut forum

Posted on Jan. 27, 2016, 6:51 p.m. by ninjaclevs13

I see on my profile what my T/O rank and helper rank are, what is that and what does it mean? Also, what are the 'decklords' listed under the Community section?

T/O rank is just a metric that measures your activity here. Helper rank is similar, but I'm assuming it's generated through stuff like good card suggestions on decks and new card submissions and corrections.

Neither of these things mean anything. If you're in the top 50 for either one, you spend too much time here.

Decklords and Helpers are the top 5 users in those categories.

So by TheDevicer's calculations, I spend too much time on here, as my TO rank is 11 and my Helper Rank is 46. Lol

I spend wahahaaayyyyy too much time here. I'm 4 and 8 respectively. If you're here half the time that I am, yeah, you're on here too much.

Card submissions no longer generate any points in any category, if OGW is any confirmation. Helper Rank is only for helping out on decks.

There needs to be a note next on the community page. Everyone asks this.

canterlotguardian I got you beat. I'm 3 overall and 5 helper. I spend too many hours on here as well.

Is anyone even a tad surprised about the number 1 in both lists? I've spent a solid amount of time on the site and I've almost never seen that user. Maybe because he/she is more geared towards EDH, but still...

Who is this Lanzo fella? Non-upgrade + forgettable name might make me glance over the person, but I sincerely don't remember ever seeing this user before. Weird af.

January 27, 2016 10:21 p.m.

Oh wait, I got it. For some reason, Lanzo doesn't have any points on his profile (like he literally doesn't have a line that says "Points: X"), and that must cause some problem in the algorithm for finding the top helpers and such. Strange. yeaGO?

That's because he is a non-upgraded user FAMOUSWATERMELON. You can't see the points of non-upgraded users. That is a perk of upgrading, people can see your points.

You just have to look at his recent comments to see his activity. I do see him around relatively often.

Sounds like a bug

Every non-upgraded user has never had their points available to be seen :o

Oh yeah XD Strange that he's first then. I mean, he might actually be very active just on EDH decks (looking at his profile), but I still find it weird that both me and Devicer haven't seen him around.

So here's a question a vaguely relative question since I have some admins in here.

I'd gladly give you all $5. Hell I'd gladly give you $20. Or a monthly.

But I really would rather not have to mess around with PayPal.

Can I be helped or do I have to swallow my pride?

January 28, 2016 11:40 a.m.

TMBRLZ you can just enter in credit card details, I believe. or do you have to have a card linked through PP?

TMBRLZ says... #20

Ah, I stand corrected. Looks like you can pay without a paypal account. I just saw the PayPal nonsense and assumed you had to have an account with them.

Thank you sir canterlotguardian. I'll go ahead and contribute some munz later tonight when I'm not at work.

Of course I'll be working at my LGS tonight... hmm...

I will give munz soon. Very soon.
