Hey Slynky, my game with Simplify isn't listed. Oversight? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yes, BIG oversight since I created the game http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/blush.gif ! Let me fix it right away.

Just so ya know...I sometimes miss games but I don't mess up rating computations.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Bash Round 2 game - Asmala has defeated me.
Looks like my rating is starting to slip down to where it should be.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I'll post them tonight. Seems like there is a KOTH game ended, too. I'll have to check.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Slynky,

1 game ended:
Rating Bash - Asmala vs Baron Grazic
Asmala won

2 new games:
Ratings Bash - Asmala vs RexTorres
Ratings Bash - Slynky vs Baron Grazic

Thanks.

Please make sure I missed nothing of yours.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I missed a couple.

New game:
Ratings Bash - Steal Dragon vs Alneyan.

I see you already updated the game between Georgig and Alneyan.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Also, there was a second person who wanted the Great Experiment 3" to be rated. But I can't find the info. A little help, please.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I guess I should not ask such things in mails dedicated to our team game. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I asked to be rated in this game, but I don't know who else wanted to be rated.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I'm confused http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif (not a new thing, mind you). What game are you referring to?

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Well, I asked to be rated in the Great Experiment game. However, I asked this query in a mail where we were discussing strategy in the Ratings team game. Don't ask. (Hopefully, it will be clear. Hopefully.)

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Then YOU are the one I was asking about. I'll pop you in tonight. BTW, the other is already listed: Gandalph.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

How the games with more than two rated players are rated?

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I beleive that happened right after I finished the site (wouldn't you know it!) so I planned to update it tonight.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I beleive the answer is waaaaay down in the thread here (on what we finally decided). I've been "slow" to post it on the site since a game hasn't finished yet.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Actually, that might be my fault, Baron. I forgot to follow procedure and send an e-mail reporting my loss. I was merrily posting it in the RC thread and forgot. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/blush.gif

Looks like Slynky is the first to pass the 1100 plateau. Congrats! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Unfortunately for him, now begins the "Let's Get Slynky Campaign". We cannot allow this impertinence to continue! He will never let us forget he is the high exalted one and we are just rubes!

Let's stop him now, before it's too late!

... Hey! Doesn't he do the calculations himself. Not that I'm the suspicious sort... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Just haven't had my share of unbeatable opponents. One of the good things about KOTH and the "Bash", it puts you up against them. But a few below me are undefeated in the system.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Put me down as being rated in the Great Experiment 3 game please Slynky.

Two games ended:

Bbegmott won

Ratings Bash - Primitive vs Gozguy
Primitive won

Two new games:
Ratings Bash - Primitive vs Gecko
Ratings Bash - Tesco Samoa vs Gozguy

Thank you.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Thanks, Geo.

Before I update the site, I'm having a bit of a problem.

I have a message from Taikon before his KOTH game started saying he wanted to be in the rating system. The KOTH game (with Gecko) started on the 31st. I'm having trouble finding any notification that it was to be a rated game. I can't find it in my mail system nor can I find a message in the forum. So, someone will need to help me out a bit.

This points out the need to email me with information so I don't spend time looking around for it. Of course... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif ...if this game was NOT a rated game, then I looked for no reason and, of course I found nothing.

Welcome to the Ratings madness, 1FSTCAT!

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

Slynky, rules question.

In a multiplayer game in which not everybody is rated, ie Great Experiment 3, how do you handle it if a rated player combines with one or more non-rated players and achieves a "team victory"?

The way I am guessing is that as long as he is the Last rated player standing, it doesn't matter if he is teamed with non-rated players since they aren't considered for Ratings purposes anyway. Am I correct about that?

And if two rated players team up they will have to eventually fight it out, or at least declare one of them the victor at the end, right? No team victories between rated players? Or have you added some sort of formula for that that isn't listed in the rules.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I'd agree with what you have said below, Geo.

For example, there is a Pairs game afoot. Whichever pair wins, there will still have to be a single rated player to be declared the winner. I don't really care if they fight it out or one looks at the other and says, "Well, you are obviously the strongest of us two...I'm not going to waste my time trying to fight you...you win over all."

And in the first example, when we say, "Last Man Standing", we really mean Last RATED man standing. I don't care if he came in 5th place. For rating purposes, if there were 3 other rated players who went out of the game before him, he "won" as far as Ratings goes.

So, does it look like we are on the same sheet of music?

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Yep, seems reasonable and logical to me.

Thanks Slynky for all the work you are doing on the Ratings.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

At the moment, luck of starting positions within the map can effect the outcome of a game and effect the Ratings.
In future games would anyone be willing to using a custom map that gives both competitors 'exactly' the same start, same number of planets at the same distance from their home world, etc?
I've designed a small map layout (only system and warp points so far, no planets) that could be used for this purpose, but I don't want to waste my time if no-one will use it.
Continue or not?

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I think it will get used Baron. Probably not exclusivly or anything, people would get tired of it. But someone would used it probaly a few time at least. The UCT tourney had a map like that.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

This would be helpful and could be put up for others to download - perhaps if you encouraged others to use it give feedback and discussion with some effort you could get it into wider circulation.

Re: SE4 Rating System
 

I have created a map designed for Koth type games where both players have exactly the same start.
I have created it specifically for Rock None empires.
Below is the stats for the map. The starting planets are in the centre of enter side.
http://clients.net2000.com.au/~xanthea/identical.jpg

The map can be located at PBW in the map sector or here

It is free to use or change if anyone wants. Let me know if anyone has any suggests.
Thanks.
