New Top 50′s and Quest Prestige

I added some new top 50 lists yesterday. One for each stat and one for each skill.

I also added a concept of Quest Prestige (QP). You can find these QP lists at the top of the Top 50′s page. QP is accumulated via your rankings on the top 50s. The points accumulate as follows:

1st – 100 QP
2nd – 85 QP
3rd – 70 QP
4th through 50th – (51 minus rank) QP. So 47 for 4th, and 11 for 40th, and 1 for 50th.
(Points are 10x for the top-levels list)

QP will mark the top players and, as I hoped, accumulated massively for the top players (Fing, Gray_Wolf, Bronse).

We also added a new concept of an account with more than one character in it.  These accounts are based on your email address. And since they are based on email address, you need to know what email address you created each character with. Look for that to be added to your detailed stats. Also, since this is a new concept, it would be fair to allow certain alts to be transfered onto an existing account if it made sense.

QP accumulation across alternate characters will certainly be a point of interest for top players. choosing alts wisely will be key to maximal all-time QP. For example, shadowjoe has more than one significant character, putting him third in all-time QP, ahead of Bronse who has one huge character, but no alts. I especially like the way this encourages top players to make alts, adding churn to the AH from proven intelligent players.

But this is just meta — no in-game changes here. We obviously have to do a lot more than QP to get the AH back to life and players playing.
