MK25's Ranking SystemWe rank each map out of 500 points. For each game type or genre of map we have a rubric that we use to come up with your final rank. You will be placed into a group along with your degree based upon your rank. The rubrics we use are listed below. If there are any problems or concerns with the ranking system please tell us in the box to the right. We will gladly take a look and decide whether it needs to be changed or not.

Want to get re-ranked?Every two months the leaders of each group take a look at the newest map on their group's fileshare. You can either get recommended to go down or up in rank. Also if someone has not made a map in the past two months they are at high risk for being removed from the clan due to inactivity. At anytime you can come here and request to get re-ranked. This request will be looked over and you will either get re-ranked or not based on the leader's opinion.
MK25 Rules
|
Top TensTop tens are a monthly video that we put onto our YouTube channel featuring the ten best maps of the month. These maps are chosen by the leaders of the clan and will represent our clan. We try and choose a mixture of competitive and flood maps on the top ten. While MK25 sharing ten of our best maps with the rest of the Halo community we also accept at least one map from our two lower groups. This gives our lower ranked forgers some opportunity to show what they have to offer. To submit your map to the top ten fill out the necessary details to the right. Also below that you will see previous top tens ranging all the way back to Halo reach.
How we divide MK25MK25 is a huge forging clan that is still growing today. With that said we have to break down the clan into sections or groups. The clan is separated into 3 major groups. These groups are the Spartans, Forerunners and Elites. Each group with a different group leader and a different feel. The Spartans and the Elites are both the average groups. These groups consist of anyone who is still learning to forge to members who can put together a greatly forged map. The Forerunners is a group only consisting of the best of the best forgers. These forgers usually forge a consistent number of maps that are ranked a 350 or higher out of 500 points. The Forerunner group is the first group that is usually visited for maps to represent the clan. Within each group we divide it even further. For every group we have three ranks called degrees. Degrees show how good you are within your group. Degrees are shown through the MK25 clan emblem. The more triangles that are shown in the black triangle means the better the degree. Below are the degrees and how they are shown.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st Degree- Best of the best forgers within the group they are placed. This degree is shown on an emblem by 3 triangles of your group color with a black triangle as the background. 2nd Degree- This is the moderate portion of the group. This contains the middle section of a group. This is represented on an emblem by having 2 triangles of your group color on the bottom and 1 triangle on the top black, along with the black triangle background. 3rd Degree- This is where the lower portion of each group would be placed. This usually contains below average forgers who have potential but aren't just there yet. (Aside from the Forerunner group) The 3rd degree members in the Spartans and Elites will usually have to go to training sessions to improve up a degree. This is represented through an emblem by 1 triangle of the groups color on top and the bottom 2 are black, along with the black triangle as the background. MK25 Emblems and Ranks

MK25 maps
MK25 is a clan full of forgers that focus on both game play and aesthetics. Although some may argue that game play is much more important than aesthetics, we think differently. Most of our maps have a unique feature that is waiting to be captured. Each of these features can be potential candidates for showing off our aesthetic side on the top of the website. To get your screenshot up there take a screenshot and put t on your file share. Go onto halo waypoint and copy and paste the URL of your screenshot into the form below.
