As you can see i edited it. I stopped editing as a wiki is no good place for 
discussion. My changes would be:

* In order to be able to change scoring later i would store all relevant 
parameters not asking the size up to 1kB per game.

(At my university we had a permanent Quake1 ladder that worked very good. The 
guy who made it stored each kill in a long text file for all time. that was some 
hundred  kills each day for some five years. He parsed this with perl to display 
the stats. It was fun to see who was the greatest axe murderer, who killed whom 
how often. you could have a matrix drawn of some chosen players and the numbers 
of who killed whom how often. also the scoring could be displayed according to 
different formulas (what i would not suggest for glob2 but the ability to switch 
at some point in time would be great).)

* ladder should be opt in. maybe separate lobby.

* handling of spammers could be done via irc? "voice on irc"="voice on yog". yog 
follows irc.

* how to deal with spam-joiners? games should have an optional password.
