So that was the rating period transition? I must say very little actually happened as far as I can tell. Did anyone actually move about? With the amount of games played last week and the ladder in it's infancy as far as people's strengths being similar during that week, I would have expected quite a...

I have noticed this on a few occasions. My hypothesis is that sometimes you will get the attempts ticking off when the server in question is taken down while you were attempting to connect. The lag on the private servers can often be worse, and the game doesn't quite "catch on" the server ...

I meant players on ranked servers can't turn off sudden death, thus making it such that there are no ties, thus making the column superfluous. I wasn't 100% sure if players could or could not.

Thanks Jelco, that's excellent. Explains it all. Might I suggest then you leave the rating period, but possibly have the daily score recalculations given a separate title and numbered as say 2.1 for monday 2.2 for tues etc (I know it's not decimal, but it could be like a cricket overs score. At 2.7 ...

Probably because the score recalculations happen periodically. ;) or because you beat someone who was higher/lower etc up the ladder than they did. As I understand it, glicko doesn't or shouldn't operate that way. If the score or rating is equal, then the ladder should check who has won the most ga...

Man, you do have some good hax xander!

Also , just then noticed on the board, 3 people on 1500, yet I was rated 33 the other two were rated 31 and I have the most wins. Not sorting properly or a hang up from removing the randoms?

Couple of quick questions/comments. I've been doing a little reading on Glicko. It's showing "rating period: 2". Does that mean we are no longer essentially static? I think your terminology "score" would be better off called "rating" to avoid confusion since score impli...

A rating period starts at midnight on the night from Sunday to Monday and lasts a week - this means that, for every game played in this week, people's ranks are practically frozen . Ahhhh. This being the relevant sentence. Thanks for that. Makes more sense. I'm also not worried about in game scores...

The scoring system is really bugging me. I did send an email to "staff", but I may as well sign up and address it as others may be able to elaborate. Please don't take anything personally if I mention your name, but I can't explain without examples. I am not trying to blame anyone, just tr...
