Ranking

I haven't paid much attention before to the Ranking, but now - at the start of A5 - it is too obvious that there is something wrong with the Ranking (see picture)

I would think that there are other factors (except those shown in the table) that affect the Ranking if it was not for my other hero Lada. I started Lada later than lucille and she is far behind in expansion, culture, research and solving puzzles. BUT Lada is № 35 in Ranking and lucille is № 85.

I was confused at the start too, but after some hours i realized why this is happening.

In the start, while novice protection holds, we all have 0 at Attacker, Defender, Plunder ranks since there is no pvp. This mean that we are all receive random ranks in those lists and those ranks keep refreshing and changing our position every few hours.

The "Top Country" rank is indeed the average position of one's other 12 ranking positions.

The people that were "mismatched" there must have had better positions at pvp ranking.
