The idea of spectators is just another reason I've been working on creating an web page to play Maple's omok live with other players.

It is true that the difference between points is a major factor of how many points are gained and lost. Also the player that goes first plays is a major factor. *Buying exact formula*
PS. You would get quite a bit higher than 2250, I would suspect you would get into 2400s maybe 2500s before you stop gaining points without trading off lose mules. But you would need to have to have the loser rejoin the board each time. Once you get into the 2700s however you will stop gaining points from 2000pt players (even on their start).

My rule is simply that my wins must be greater than my losses.[/COLOR]

I have about 30% more losses than I do wins in Omok, yet my score is 225x or something.
But I guess if you're REALLY dedicated with the mules thing, you could probably get the medal.
