And what if someone else was close to your rank, and won several fights.
Is it not possible for him/her to get a higher rank than you ?
What if you just stop playing ? No-one can get a higher rank than you ?
You said, you don't think that 79 people got higher ranking than you in one day.
But it is possible. Many matches take place in a day.
Remember that people not always play on servers related to their region of the world, so a server can be busy for 24 hours.
