Hm.. what are you expecting ? I think it is impossible to make it. :/ Maybe previous !lp system but without table here, surprise gift - S1. ? :D

Author:  Dave [ Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:30 am ]
Post subject: 

No it's not impossible.. In fact I am almost finished. Not With TrueSkill (too complex and not enough info for PHP at this moment) but with an basic system called ELO. Modified for multiplayer.

It will be OK, relax :D

Problem is that I have weekend too and that gives some problems :lol:

can you tell us how the new system works?i mean how its calculating the points.
3 hours ago i had 400lp or so and after couple of races it became 371 :o

another thing, is needed to wait everyone complete the race and 90 seconds to restart the race, why dont allow restart the race or make the counter have less time to we wait?

Author:  Dave [ Sun Sep 12, 2010 12:36 am ]
Post subject: 

I need to finetune the charts, will do that tomorrow. Lets see if that is satisfactory. ( I think not, actually :/ ... Maybe improve the old system instead, don't know yet )

Will explain later.

Because when number one finishes there could be a delay before the last one finishes of up to one lap. (90 seconds).

And also its a time to change things, another setup. Go to toilet, discuss an incident. A short break is not bad :wink:

The delay is actually 120 seconds. Or 2 minutes. If you finish first you have the longest pause 8)

Just a question, why i lost 100 lp in just 1 day?
I won one race, and the others i spectate by crash or flip motives only...
Also, i have more than 500 lp from the leader of ranking, who have +100 lp from the second. How the points are made or lost?

Your voucher code has been accepted and your account has been upgraded to S2 licensed racer (see the "drivers license" in the top-right corner of this website).

Congratulations to Carbon and ZnoCz ! :thumb: :) They are latvian demo drivers that I called here, cause I knew they are potential winners. Now Carbon is S1 driver, but ZnoCz is already S2(S1>S2 voucher) 8) Now there are many latvian drivers on S0 server. Let's see what they can. :lol:
@Si Mclaren
Go go, you can do it ! :thumb: :)

As long as you don't make the mistake to 'help' by driving for them, it's OK. :wink:

Post subject: 

what happens if i finish 3rd and Carbon and ZnoCz are still 1sta nd 2nd?
i think carbon is affraid that i steal his points, every race he did with me he didnt finish, he always spectated near end of race.

Author:  Litro [ Sat Oct 02, 2010 8:28 pm ]
Post subject: 

Carbon is not worried about his points, but maybe he is giving it for another driver. And you should't worry about them, because they are not participating anymore on S1 winning. :wink:

Author:  Dave [ Sat Oct 02, 2010 8:30 pm ]
Post subject: 

Doesn't matter anymore, they are S1 and S2 now so they don't count for the league.

But I will do a system change after this weekend, need to think about it. I don't like that spectating behavior.

Author:  delta s4 [ Sat Oct 02, 2010 8:54 pm ]
Post subject: 

its kind annoying, i'm racing fair, trying to get as many points as i can get and he spectates... thats not fair play
maybe eliminate those with S1 and S2? just an idea

I will implementing some old code back which gives a penalty for every day you do not race.

Author:  Dave [ Tue Oct 05, 2010 5:55 pm ]
Post subject: 

True, but it makes no sense to explain it if I am changing it anyway. First change, then explain.

And yes I am slow the last days with changes, sorry :oops:

Alright, I recalculated everything from 1st day of the month. You can't loose !lp anymore but it gets harder to gain when you are on top of the list. Amount of races done are in the table now also. The more races you do the chances you have a high score increase but it does not say everything.

Author:  delta s4 [ Mon Oct 11, 2010 5:11 pm ]
Post subject: 

changes look good. yeah, its way harder, i'm only getting 1 to 3 pts per race. how the pts for winning race are calculated? by fast laps? time of race?

Author:  Dave [ Mon Oct 11, 2010 5:43 pm ]
Post subject: 

Ehhhr no.

It's based on ELO's quick calculator.. Here;
http://www.kosteniuk.com/EloCalc/elo.php

But you need the current average ELO of the racers participating, points earned.. Blabla. It's not easy to calculate the 'delta'.

Maybe I display the results per race in the future.

Generally saying; you earn more points if you rank high in a race with a high average ELO and you gain not much if the average ELO is low. Or, if you finish bad, or the average ELO is just extremely low.. You score nothing...

Or even have a negative delta, which I do not count anymore.

(ELO is !lp (league points) ... I just named it different :D )

If some of you don't follow what I'm saying... Just race! :lol: :wink:

Author:  delta s4 [ Mon Oct 11, 2010 6:01 pm ]
Post subject: 

ok... i think this is more complex than i thought, i guess i'll just race and hope for the best :D
but thanks anyway...
sorry to bother you so many times

Author:  Dave [ Tue Oct 12, 2010 9:35 am ]
Post subject: 

:D

No problem.

I did a final recalculation now. I noticed a bug, the race counter only went up if you scored a positive delta. Now the race counter always goes up if you finish a race.

Scores are slightly different now because that counter is part of the process, doesn't matter much, just a bit.

Post subject: 

This is awesome :D
In the old system, i had +700 points from the leader, now it is less?

Author:  Dave [ Thu Oct 14, 2010 2:08 am ]

Only 13 races, start racing :[

Another question, at month end the points are reset or they continue as they was in the month end?

Author:  Dave [ Sun Oct 24, 2010 10:48 am ]
Post subject: 

It will be reset, otherwise newcomers won't have any chance.

Btw, you have two accounts?

Si Mclaren
Si mclaren

???

Didn't knew that was possible.

edit: It isn't possible, it's the same account. Did you re-registered/re-installed your LFS?

Your account name is spelled different in replay's and that is very unusual.
