Unreal Tournament

Steve Poldge has explained UT2004 server admins mailing list that Epic envisages to integrate a ranking system for the UT2007 players. This system would work such as games like BF2 or BG2142. But the plus is that these rankings will be used to help the players to find an appropriate server, given his skill. This system is analogous to the MatchMaking of Microsoft

We want to be able to use player ranking to help players find servers which match their skill level, to avoid the issues with wide skill disparities you often see in UT2K4 pub servers. However, it's easy to game the rankings if you control the server.

What alternatives to EA's approach can you suggest? We know our admin community is important to the success of UT, and we don't want to do anything to shut any of you out. In any case, it's quite possible to game the rankings even without controlling the server, if the players band together.
