YOBA zizonists Posts: 1738 From: UK	01.03.2012 - 08:13 YOBA LOL, we (SRB) had more victories in total (and probably more points!) than BiteMe Too!. Are coalitions with 10 games played the only ones allowed there? Great system BTW. And I appreciate the news post. ---- YOBA: Youth-Oriented, Bydło-Approved Loading... Loading...

Barrymore zizonists Posts: 367 From: Falkland Islands	02.03.2012 - 07:46 Barrymore Whilst it's obvious that not playing the full 10 games is a disadvantage. I believe that basing the scores on gross SP earned rather than net SP earned is the cause of imbalances in the coalition system. First there is no downside to playing games as opposed to not playing them. Say a coalition is on 5:0 there's no downside to them playing the rest of the games (even if they lose them) because their overall score will be unaffected and they may even win some of the games. There should be risk associated with a loss rather than it just being a missed opportunity to gain points. Currently the only thing that happens when a clan loses a CW is a loss of compotence which only makes the next CW you win gain you more SP (relative to if you had won the previous game). Net scoring would associate a certain risk with losing however would not upset the system so much that a team could win a few games and just sit on their points for the rest of the season. I've redone the coalition scores to show net instead of gross SP (there's not that many major changes to the finishing positions). The Revolutionaries: 315 Stalins Martians: 222 Dalmati: 195 BiteMe! Too: 147 Empire SRB: 125 GORY FLORALZOOKA: 111 Dalmati Pups: 107 Dutch Pride: 49 (After this point all SP scores are in minus figures) Dutch Pride, Dalmati and Empire SRB are examples of Clans that did not play all their games but did not lose any. As you can see they have not risen to the top of the lists so it does not penalise too harshly those teams that lose some but play all 10 games with Revolutionaries and Stalins Martians respectable win:loss ratio still earning them the top spots. The clans that are punished harsly in this system are those that have lost more than they have won (moreover, lost more than they have won against opponents that have less compotence rating than themselves) and have dissapeared from the positive rankings entirely. BiteMe! Too are an example of a 5 wins 5 losses clan but those wins and losses have been against superior teams and therefore their overall SP remains positive and a very respectable 4th position. Sorry for the wall of text and possibly bad maths. ---- Written by Amok, 29.04.2012 at 08:36 Gardevoir, your obnoxiousness really baffles me sometimes...just leave for good already or stop whining.

Barrymore zizonists Posts: 367 From: Falkland Islands	02.03.2012 - 07:49 Barrymore An alternative to the above system is to base the scoring system on what is currently used in World of Warcraft Arenas: Instead of basing the scoring on the points earned from Clan Wars base it on the clan compotence (which would get reset at the start of each season) which would show a more positive correlation between wins, losses and abilities. Just some ideas. ---- Written by Amok, 29.04.2012 at 08:36 Gardevoir, your obnoxiousness really baffles me sometimes...just leave for good already or stop whining. Loading... Loading...

BASED Ironail zizonists Posts: 903 From: France	22.03.2012 - 20:36 BASED Ironail Barrymore's idea (akin to WoW arena rating) is a good one: a reset of competence every season and ranking based off competence would be far better than the system today. ---- Hello, I listen to Shakira and Rihanna and I support the multiculturalisation of Europe : ) Loading...

TDFall zizonists Posts: 228	23.03.2012 - 16:41 TDFall One hitch in making it based solely off competence is that a coalition could simply fight a bunch of random coalitions to gain an artificially high competence. ---- Qui non proficit, deficit.
