We have seen some cool suggestions from your side about skill rank names so we will present the final version of those and you shall vote for the thing you like most.

Because we have seen that many of like multiple of these, we might make another round after this, like the best two options get the voting again, so that all others that liked also those can vote for their favorite. But, this depends really. Don't consider this voting as final, more like we want to see opinion of the majority in DA.

well it stayed there for a day. who had something in mind they posted. Also, that suggestion from naito has teacher rank (and we got staff teachers here as well) and graduate rank as 3rd. graduate may mislead ppl, since we got two more ranks above it. those are the reasons for not using that one, but his other two were very reasonable for DA

fable and myth.... what do those have to do with ranking? I mean legend okay it is used when someone was so great and they call him a legend but fable and myth? I understand you like games but here we have to focus on interesting stuff for most ppl, not only strategy players lol. for a new user in DA, who likes ygo very much, seeing some people wearing myth or fable would totally be confusing.

Also, apprentice and student. Relation between those two is unclear. apprentice is mostly used as a student that is being trained by someone, like you got some sort of wise man teaching some kid stuff and we call that kid apprentice. Student is just student lol. I mean student is generally someone who is studying stuff. Apprentice is a beginner in some field that is being trained for. Leveling those two.... we cannot just merge random things or synonyms or very similar things together lol.

But I'll just explain them a bit anyway.

1st option is pretty obvious. Even though, expert would be more suitable tech-wise instead of professional, but since pro is used in many many things for these purposes, then we used pro as better option than expert.

2nd option. noob is just noob lol. rookie is also a starter but when you compare it to noob, rookie knows at least something, and if some ppl don't feel like that I added words "complete" to noob and "experienced" to rookie to additionally differ them and give them more interesting names ofc. Then there is meta boss, indicating that those people utilize meta decks very much since winning a tournament without meta deck is a rare case. Plus whenever we see someone winning we say usually its a meta player. Cardfather derived from godfather (the mafia meaning) indicating that these kind of duelists are so good that they are boss of the bosses. U know, meta bosses being all loud and praise themselves while cardfather sits behind in a chair full of leather and is above it all simply. King of games is obvious, no matter how much cardfathers be good and pro, you can't simply get over yugi. he draws cards he wants, speaks with monsters he wants, has its own spirit to talk with when he is alone, he simply always is one step in front of everyone. whenever kaiba screws the rules, yugi does that much more and beats the crap out of him again and again. never a ygo anime had such a boss protagonist than yugi and will never have one. when pot of greed was not drawing enough cards he used cards of consonance and modified its effect so he could draw cards until he has full hand of them lol. cards that are unbeatable, he has beaten with kuriboh.... LOL and after all these years of synchros and xyz crap, he still likes old fashion and fuses his gazelle with befomet LOL. classics are classics after all. In anime, he is the only one called the king of games and remains that title. That is why no better title will suit best duelist ever :D

3rd is naitos. metal names used in order based on their cost, this is very old fashion but as naito said still used very much. legend at the end indicates someone who is just so pro that he remains something special in DA and deserves to be called a legend. i know, it is a bit off of metal names but it is actually okay to raise last rank to higher grounds than the rest :D

4th school names, which is obvious and suitable for our academy needs :D


about discussions and such, usually we speak this in staff section but in general, these ideas happen just like that single person suggests and others like it or just suggest some small modifications to it or so. Its not like we all work on one name or so lol.

Bronze -> Silver -> Gold -> Platinum -> Diamond

Works better if you use those, Legend just looks out of place.
