This might be a bit off topic but I'll ask anyway, How often do you have to win to rank up? I'm still a fluffy newbie. There's 60 people in the Fluffy League and just about everyone except the top 13 actually have a score that isn't 0. Currently, it lists me as number 3 tied with some other guy with 17 and number 1 at 18.

I'll give you the short version., but also link a long version if I can find it in a min. can't find the one I was thinking of, but there are plenty on this forum if you search.

Your score that you can see has no bearing on whether or not you will be promoted ("rank up"). You can think of this as the more you play the more points you get.

Your hidden rating (a number you cannot see) is what determines promotion. This number is calculated differently from the score you can see and is based on your opponents hidden rating.

The only real way to tell if you're close to promotion is if you start playing those in the league above you (since your hidden rating is getting closer to theirs, the system will match you up). In your case, you will start playing players in Clever. I'm not sure how close the the ranges are for Fluffy -> Clever, though, so you may just be promoted without playing any Clevers, but in higher leagues this is more true.

That all being said, just keep winning games more than you lose them and you should eventually be promoted.
