ranking by pair Why not create a ranking by pair, at least for speedball.

Dear BBO colleagues,
At the moment, BBO has all sorts of rankings for individuals but surprisingly no ranking for pairs, although the pair is the basic unit of the bridge game.
I realize it may be a bit more complicated to manage such a ranking than the current ones but may be it could start with a simple speedball pair ranking. I am quite sure that would entice people to play in more regular partnerships than at present.
I have myself locally sponsored a pair challenge in my club and within a year we have seen strong partnerships forming while before only a couple of pairs were regular partners. The level of the game has benefited from that action.
If I receive positive feedback, I will make a formal suggestion to BBO management.
Looking forward to your comments.
DonMario

It does? Can you point out two or three of them? I don't know of any.

Agreed,
could we also have a ranking for girl pairs, between 18-21years old, living in California.
NB:
Edited after DonMario's remark (raking changed to ranking)
