Anyone wanna do an alternative skill ranking yearly competition?

using a slightly modified version of moondust's alternative skill ranking formula:
((games*PPG)/1000)(4(% 1sts) + 3(% 2nds) + 2(% 3rds) + 1(% 4ths) + 0(% 5ths) - 1(% 6ths) - 2(% 7ths)) Basically, this alternative ranking is a weighted average. In a sense, you get 4 points for every percentage point you have in first, 3 for second, 2 for third, 1 for fourth, none for fifth, and you lose 1 for 6th, and lose 2 for seventh. Then the sum of your points is multiplied by the points you earn at regular tables, and divided by a thousand. The difference between this formula and the original is division by 100000 overall instead of 10000 (because I convert the percentages to decimals), since regular table scores are much larger yearly than monthly. I might also use a different weighting... the current 4/3/2/1/0/-1/-2 I think doesn't take enough for seventh. I propose 5/3/1/0/-1/-2/-3, keeping in mind that bad starts often cause 7ths. Would anyone be interested? I could do top 100 monthly if anyone would want to see that also. |

Did you just suck monte's dick in a public forum? |

at 10:51 AM, Friday August 6, 2010 EDT I want points for kills. 50 or 100? More? This should be implemented in general, because it would stop players from leaving the three people with 1 stacks from living 10-20 rounds behind a person with 10 stacks that they flagged.

at 11:01 AM, Friday August 6, 2010 EDT dammit, i came up with that idea like 2 years ago, when people were talking about leaderboard changes. and i realized it would be genius to offer people points for kills. but i think Ryan himself said no for some reason. oh well. anyways, shouldve copywritted the idea, but too late now.

at 11:48 AM, Friday August 6, 2010 EDT The TAPL and TAZD are designed to get people to play more games. Good percentages don't mean much if you have played only a few games, like a hitter who bats 1.000 in one game and quits for the season. So get out there and PLAY MORE GAMES!

A batting average of .005 over three thousand at-bats still sucks. A 7th percentage of 40+% still sucks, regardless of how many games you play. In fact, all those extra games just prove that you suck consistently... |
