Scoring and Ranking
How is the scoring done, when determining rank? It looks kinda random to me right now......

It would seem that games are for a total of 32 pts. If the two players have equal rating, they both risk 16 pts in a winner-takes-all bout. The amount of points risked goes up or down by 1 by a difference of 25 ratings, to a minimum of zero and maximum of 32. If the game ends as a draw, each player gets the average of the results of a win and a loss.
For example, if two players face each other at a bout, one with rating 1,000 and one with rating 1,200, there's a difference of 200 pts in ratings. Divided by 25 gives eight. So, the points risked are: lower-rated player: 16 - 8 = 8 higher-rated player: 16 + 8 = 24 The results would be, for the lower-rated player: * lower-rated player wins: 1000 - 8 + 32 = 1024 * lower-rated player loses: 1000 - 8 = 992 * draw: (1024 + 992) / 2 =1008 The formula predicts these correctly. However, for the higher-rated player, things get a bit messy. * win: 1200 - 24 +32 = 1208 (actual: 1205) * loss: 1200 - 24 = 1186 (actual: 1183) * draw: (1205 + 1183) / 2 = 1194 (correct) Apparently there's a damper effect here to make bottom feeding harder? |

There's one on this site as well. But it only gives the numbers, not the formula - where's the fun in that?

Edit: kensai, look at the post date for this thread.

No wonder there's such a clump around 1200 and 1400. It's like a hill that gets steeper at those two points. So people can get just about to that point, but it's harder to keep getting higher.

It's really hard to get to 2000...we just had 2 players get to 1900 a couple of days ago.
