Nice thread bud. This is helpful

I don't know if you saw it, but a while ago there was another badge after the skull with shotguns.
This one was a sort of gas mask with knives if I can remember correctly?

Don't mean to be horrible but your theory is crap to get to rank 7 you need at least 160+ KD

Thanks for the post, but honestly, no matter how many theories are posted, no matter how many explanations people try to come up with, these things still stay the same:

Tally Marks = Days
KD For a Certain Rank = Unknown

There is no exact KD you need to get to get a certain rank. I have a 51.0KD and I have SkullKnife.

37,522 kills
726 downs
(I've been on this account since day 1 of Black Ops 2)

So KD is still a mystery and if you REALLY want to rank up, watch players who actually get to high rounds on YouTube, and then follow what they do.

You can even try what I did and play Solo. People kept backing out so I hardly ever play in Public Matches anymore.
Also a good tip for a high rank no matter what your KD is:

HIGH ROUNDS (35+ a game)
And don't get downed more than 5 times a match!

It helps.

Just keep playing though, rank shouldn't be your goal. If it is, you are not truly enjoying the game.

I can honestly say the way your gonna rank up is having about 10K per game in solo then end it I got my Shotguns in die rise and when buried 1st came out I kept dying lost and lost my shotguns Tallys are only blue eyes they don't matter and if you are bad or desperate go into a unlimited rounds glitch.

I didn't get my shotguns till I got a 165 K/D

Oh I'm sorry I forgot I'm not allowed an opinion. Next time I will post the same generic "great post" as everyone else.
How is it helpful to post false information? As it is now there is not one thing on there that can be backed up by facts. The post has also been edited since my first comment.
