Ranking

It would be nice if we knew the exact no. that we are ranked at on the basis of our rating. Now we only know that we are the top 100 or 50 player but giving an exact no. can boost the confidence of players if a players rating is say 11th best still he gets a top 50 player trophy and a player with 50th best rating also gets a top 50 player trophy so it would be great to know our rankings is well along with the trophies.
I'm not sure why this feature disappeared, but I suspect it's because there is no longer a "global" or overall rating.

Past a certain point, ranking becomes excessively complicated and pointless. Individualized top 100 rankings (maybe for when you mouse roll over the trophy) would be cool though.
