Subject: Bro not being XP or Skill rise- and Bungie crash?

Been round to see my bro, Enuo9512 and been watching him own. Only problem is that at 15 in LW he has not been going uo as he should following consecutive wins over players all 8 skill levels above him. What is this about?

Same happened with me once- owned Level 45s at 40, in several games and not go up skill wise or even with XP. And oddly the same number of players in LW keeps coming up at 516.

Bungie, rank my brother up! And me for that matter, I want my 41.

how much xp do you have in the playlist? You could be rank locked

29. And he was RANKING up at 1 or 2 a game, and in the middle of a serious streak of beatng L23, the game is not ranking hi up. No way he is level locked.

level lock does not exist, and OP its because if you win all of your games the system expects you to win, so beating kids who lose more than they win will not rank you up. You have to beat kids that win more than you do

if level lock don't exist mind telling me how I can go up 18 levels while my friend only goes up about 3 or 4?

his sigma is different. Either he is expected to win, or he has been playing kids expected to lose

he's been playing the same kids I've been playing. He's at like 18 but were playing 35s

True, now he is, but in the past he has played different people. He has lost to people that he was expected to beat, and beaten those he was expected to beat. The reason you are going up is because you have beaten people you were expected to lose to. The only other explination is that your friend very rarly loses, therefore when he wins it is expected and he does not gain as much sigma from those who you beat

true. But if you are in his situation you might as well say he's rank locked.

but hes not, hes simply not winning the games he needs to win, see hes not locked at all, every game he wins adds to the probablility of going up, but beating randoms that lose 80% of their games really doesnt mean a thing. Once he plays against a team that he is expected to lose against and wins he will go up

I changed usernames to match my gamertag. My original account, wambo114, was created when I got xbox live. I'm a 2007 kid really!
