The star always appears by your own name so you can find yourself.
That's what I thought until there were two people with stars in front of their name in one game. Must have been a glitch.
I found this at Westwood site[http://westwood.ea.com/games/ccuniverse/renegade/english/tourn_help.html]
How are my points calculated?
Your points are calculated on a very basic addition/subtraction principle.
When you first being playing on the Renegade ladder, you will start with 10,000 points. With each laddered game you play, you will gain or loss ladder points based on your performance in the game.
The worst player on the winning side and the best player on the losing side always receive 0 points. If you were in the game less than two minutes, you will receive 0 points. Winners from worst winner up will score as such, based on the number of players in the game: 0 points, 1 point, 3 points, 6, 10, etc.
Your number of ladder points received is the sum of the positions below you (on the winning team) and inverted on the losing team. This is then post-multiplied by the ratio of gametime you were present. The winscreen will have scoring gaps for players who participated but were not present at game end. Such players are still scored
Does this mean that if I join a game with 20 players at the beginning, end up last on the losing team, then I will lose 19 points? Seems like I should stay with small games for a while!
