Lately I've been seeing most people in the 10s of thousands ranks (I'm a Greenbelt playing on Semipro and Intermed.) and in most cases it seems this reflects nothing skill wise on the player.

I've seen complete shovel noobs with the movement of whitebelts in the 2000s ranking, while really good people who use advanced tactics are hovering around 20,000-50,000.

Now I may be wrong, alot of the times it does seem that extremely good people are in the top 5k, but I really don't know, which is why I'm asking.

Anyone care to answer? Does your rank mean everything (It determines how good you are), is it just a W/L ratio tracker, or is it just completely disregardable?

Thanks in advanced
