Win weight #102
-
Hi, I am looking for a rating system that can be used with tournaments using consolation/placement brackets. Consolation brackets are for players that have lost once and been eliminated from the main bracket, for example when playing for third place. Since the wins in the lower brackets are "worth less" they need to have lower effect on the ranking. Is this something that is possible with OpenSkill? What currently happens is that mu of 4th place is lower than the mu of 5th place because the 5th place has only lost once, but lost earlier in the tournament while 4th place has lost twice. |

I understand. I was hoping to find a system that can work for many tournaments over a season and provide ranks for players, especially if players change teams between tournaments. The same applies here that not all players play against each other which is why I'm trying to find some system that can work for this use case. If you don't see this as an alternative I thank you for your time and I'll look elsewhere. |

You shouldn't be using,
mu
alone to make your leaderboard. A leaderboard should be constructed using theordinal
method. or should be based on a formula that uses bothsigma
andmu
.
