Guild Wars 2

If matchups were shortened from 7 days down to 3, or maybe 4, do you think there would be some benefit to the game? I have been really down on the ranking system for quite some time because it doesn’t seem to really be able to reward victory properly. But absent a better suggestion on how to actually score the outcome, I was wondering if shortening the matches would be a possibility?

Do you think it would result in more movement in the rankings and promote higher focus for some if servers only had to sustain their effort for a shorter period of time?

If you look at the score fluctuations 3-4 days into the matchup they are usually greater than at the 7th day because there is a higher relative difference between scores with the lower totals. might keep matches a bit fresher? Also, not playing against the same opponent (potentially) for the entire week would change the pace of the game in matchup coverages a bit.

Thoughts?

Some servers would keep bouncing, strong during the week, weak during the weekends or the other way around.
