Well. The only distinction i know is: Perfect Competition vs. Monopoly vs. Oligopoly vs. Monopolistic Competition On a side note, the previous statement being of greater importance to the world, what exactly is this debate on rankings for? Is it going to result in a universally agreed ranking system? Or is it going to result in a ranking system in AQ, which I highly doubt. From my point of view, and from a literary point of view, low inter high inter inter are all different degrees of inters, same for whatever tom dick and harry name they can come up with. In NSL or whatever, they don't give you the specifics, that's because they would, then, practically have to make a battle forum for each sub-class. If you really wanted a detailed rating, you wouldn't ask for a ranking, you would ask for a rating. Ranking, per se, simply means putting you in your position. Don't expect anything more than that. Of course, if the raters at NSL are kind, you can PM them to ask for a detailed "sub-class + rating", however you might like to call it. There is no scope for standardization, or a debate on standardization. Even if the ranks are fixed, it ultimately depends on the rater. Double standards, or triple standards for that matter, are INEVITABLE. Neither do these ratings restrict you from going anywhere. In fact, if you feel repressed about getting an inter under a non-specific system if you should have gotten a high inter in a specific one, question the rater. I'm sure he will give you an explanation, or a specific rate. If not, send them to me. I've no idea what I'm doing here anyway. Out.
