Display the ranks close to you on scores list, not top 50.

I have this idea,

So there are local scores, global scores and country scores (ranks). To get to the point, add a "in my bracket" or a "near my rank" selection.

As a casual player of 2 years, I am kind of tired of not seeing my name rise on the left with flickering blue. So I thought, WHAT IF the scoreboard held 5,10,25k players scores above you (or for the sake of post/get requests and bandwidth, just chunk them up so you don't have to load them every time, don't re load the scores on pp gain, only do it when they pass a milestone)

This would give even more feedback to the player, and its what everyone enjoys, knowing how they matched up against others and being able to feel some form of accomplishment.

If you're supporter you can just add people close to your rank to your friend list and have that selected all the time so you'll see when you pass your friends' scores.
That's good enough, a feature like you proposed would probably require quite some processing power as the server has to find new players around your rank all the time, collect their scores, send them to you etc.
If you're looking for competition you can always play multiplayer.

Why do people care about ranks in maps if they are out of top50?

I understand a bit what he means.

I love to watch replays, but often the top 50 are HD DT HR FL and more, I don't always find them pleasant to watch.

I would also enjoy watching people closer to my level play on maps, see if they make the same mistakes than I do, or just to be able to watch replays without any mods on, or at least not as many.

So yea, there are reasons, I would appreciate the addition, but I don't think it's that vital imo.

replays that aren't in the top 5 are hardly ever watched, i doubt replays in the thousands will be more likely to be watched. This is also a huge waste of data, and if you want to watch someones replay close to your rank then just ask them to upload it.

^ Yep. You probably wouldn't find it very useful though. Unless those people played the map recently, there's a decent chance of the score not being up to par with their current play. You'd probably be better off trying to get friendly with some people near your rank and having some friendly competition with them on specific maps.
