When you start off your rank is a Little Chick. The ranks that follow require a fixed (non-variable) amount of GP. During Season 2, Ijji changed the ranking system, previously including only 25 ranks, and the top 13 ranks were based on a percentage basis and the requirements for these would frequently change (usually increase) with each day as more people gained GP.

Finally, the Administrator rank was a rank specifically for GM's (Game Masters), and the Special rank was reserved usually for events.
