Say you're on a losing streak and your score gets too low, eventually you'll bounce back (be patient it can take time)...
This one is missing from the list:A&M League 2015
Thanks for your tireless efforts keeping these up to date Jéré. I have a question though: a friend of mine, lets call him IanisFifty, is obsessed with this game called Barkassonne (it's a bit like Carcassonne but with dogs) and is an admin at www.barkassonnecentral.com where he takes place in the occasional tournament against other members of the community there. Anyway, although he likes to pretend that he's actually pretty good, his Elo rating has been falling steadily over recent competitions and he just wondered what would happen if/ when it reaches 0? Is it possible for it to go below 0? He really wants to know...
Jéré, shouldn't this update include results of the BCB expansion league? It apparently doesn't.E.g. you lost a game before our basegame league match in the BCB league so your initial rating should be lower than it was after the 2nd round of the basegame league. If I'm not mistaken than the order of the games is significant in terms of calculating Elo.
Just a thought, Jéré:As a -yet not that good- table tennis player in an official competition, i have a ELO-ranking for that sport. All the participating players can watch their ELO-points, results and statistics online all of the time. All every club in that league has to do, is charging their own results in the system and ELO-points are automatically recalculated. Even when there is a tournament and those results are charged later than other later results, the date of the game is taken in notice so the ELO-ranking is all of the time updated and recalculated. To exclude 'fraude' with the results, the opponent of the player/club who gave in the results in the system, has to confirm those results.An exemple of my not so marvellous season, for the moment:http://competitie.vttl.be/?menu=6&sel=31902&result=1&category=1Pretty sure you'll understand the language in the link, given the fact we speak the same language - yet, in a totally different way. :-)For the record: i'm not suggesting to make the same kind of platform yourself - that would be way too time-consuming and keep you away of the real deal: playing Carcassonne - but I wonder if there isn't a platform online somewhere that we could use. In that way, results and ELO-rankings would always be up to date.And if there is a way the participants to the league games can give in themselves the results of the games online, that would decrease your work a lot - which is much appreciated by the way.Maybe this is a helpful link?https://www.quora.com/Is-there-free-Elo-rating-system-softwareGroeten,Thodekey
