Seems a dumb question and probably is, but i never understood it: when it is ranked per level, how does the rankings work? I never understood how....it is not by alphabet, it is not by rank, it is not by followers....how does it decide who to rank higher between 2 chars with the same amount of exp ( read maxed level )?


Thanks for any info, i always been curious

err ?


are you talkin about the chars rank ingame ?


or am i misunderstanding you

No, i mean, when there are a lot of lvl 275 on the main page, why is the #1 one lvl 275 char and not another lvl 275 one? It's not ranked on alphabetical order, so what?

Probably order of being submitted to TS. It will pull in whatever order it was stored (my guess).

I don't think Elgarl, otherwise last submissions should be the top guys and that's not how it is.


Nice to see i am not the only one that has no clue of how it ranks the submissions

Not exactly true.

The database most likely has a coloum in the character row for last level change date.

It uses that in a DESC order to list the characters.

Or first submissions are on the top.


Or there is an ID for each character that we don't see and it is sorted on that.


Or it is random.


Only the programmer could tell us for sure.

Or that

I hope Akilla will find the time to answer sometimes: it's something i always wondered

It's lowest character ID, which has the side effect of making it also the first created character.
