Hi Pete, Don't worry about customizing our local rulebase for this. Just take this as a simple suggestion for future segregation to make it easy for new rulesets to be addressed differently in weighting schemes.
Thanks for all of your efforts!

There is no way to do this without completely reorganizing the result codes or defeating the competitive ranking mechanisms. If you feel strongly about it I can move these rule groups to lower numbers on your local rulebase or make some other numbering scheme - but I don't recommend it. Moving these rule groups to lower numbers would cause them to win competitions with other rules where they would normally not win. At some point in the future we might renumber the rule groups again, but I like to avoid this since there are so many folks that just don't get the message (no matter what we do to publish it) when we make changes like this and so any large scale changes tend to cause confusion for very long periods. For example: I still, on occasion, have questions about the gray-hosting group which has not existed for quite a long time. So far there has not been one FP reported on bot F002 and extremely few on F001 - the vast majority of those associated with the very first group of listings prior to the last two upgrades for the bot. _M This E-Mail came from the Message Sniffer mailing list.
