"3. The loser of the game drops to the bottom of the ladder."

Sounds more like Snakes and Ladders.

yes i agree, just a swap of positions in the ladder is normal and best.

..this ladder was years in development.. fair enough it is just in its testing phase now.. but believe me - you do not have a better grasp on its conceptual and logistical aspects than its developer

..a swaping of rungs would just lead to the loser automaticaly re-challening and the person having to play them over and over and over and over and over ........

[Saragossa]

challenging Miranda.

[Miranda]

challenging Miranda.

OK, how/what/when do you want to play?

Well if you have playchess that is great. Chesspark is quick and easy. Any other suggestions I am pretty flexible so it dosen't really matter but probs not corro cos it's too slow for me.
