Title : pkrank

As many of you have noted, "pkrank" hasn't been behaving as expected. I've
updated how the de-rank function works a little bit in response. You'll
now be ranked down every day if you don't have at least 1 blood point
(i.e., you no longer gain blood points just for being ranked down.)

This change should make it easier for active players to scale the ranks,
at least when their competition is inactive. It isn't ideal to have
inactive players atop the rankings. However, I want to also explain that
this change won't necessarily cause inactive players to be removed from
the list unless there areactive pkers to bump them off.

Over the coming weeks this should make the top of the rankings more
active/competitive--if players participate. I hope you'll give it a try,
and send me your feedback on how the change plays out.
