Why isn't x a format here? - dglunt34 - Oct. 06, 2024

I may be posting this in the wrong threads but has it been asked or answered as to why X isn't a format listed for rankings? It's just burst and metal...

Rankings take a while to process, in time they will be added.

Hasn't it been around for over a year now though? I mean I don't know what goes into it but I figured it would be available before it's been out for a year.

True, I feel you, but we have to consider X is reaching very popular heights on this website as to the point as to where we had 3 pages of tournemants. Thats a lot of sorting, editing, and troubleshooting to get through. There's also a lot of other work to do here that doesn't relate to Rankings, not mention the Staff is volunteers who aren't paid to do any of this, and have a life outside of the WBO. With a bit of patience, I feel the Rankings will be here in no time flat!

One of the main reasons is because WBO's backbone, MyBB, is outdated and allegedly hard to code(likely without screwing everything up. Maybe because it's using an older version of PHP?). This is a nonprofit organization, meaning Staff would have to pay out of their own pockets to hire someone to code for them(which I imagine is expensive), or they would have to do it themselves, if they're able to.

They mentioned X rankings last year and in last month's Organized Play Updates, so at the very least we know that they're working on it to some extent. it's best to just wait patiently and it'll happen whenever it does, since complaining will just stress the staff team out more.

Yep! Exactly!
