Rankings Calculations
Overall Score
Only a player's top four scores in the season count towards their overall score used for the Leaderboard.
Event Scores
Scores for a given event are calculated using:
Score = ((round_points + list_points + attendance_points) / players) * (players + 1 - position)
Round Points
In general, this ranking system is design to reward the most rounds played and won over a season. Rounds are worth points according to the following formula:
round_points = (10*rounds) + max(0, 2(rounds-2))
So greater numbers of rounds within a tournament are worth more points:
- 3 rounds = 32 points
- 4 rounds = 44 points
- 5 rounds = 58 points
- 6 rounds = 72 points
- etc
List Points
List points are a small addition to reflect the greater diversity of potential opponents lists at higher points levels. Each tier is worth a cumulative 5 points over the tier beneath it, starting at 5 points for 100 tier, the tiers being:
- >= 250 = 20
- >= 200 = 15
- >= 150 = 10
- >= 100 = 5
Attendance Points
Larger events offer a greater potential opponent diversity in general, and winning a multi day event vs a large amount of players within a large amount of rounds at a high points level should be the most valuable. Each tournament tier is worth the following points:
- Gaming Event 8+ players, 3+ rounds = 5 points
- Tournaments 16+ players, 4+ rounds = 10 points
- GT 32+ players, 6+ rounds = 15 points
- Super Major 48+ players, 6+ rounds = 20 points
Event Specific Bonuses
To keep the ranking system as level as possible, results will only be calculated using the Ranked Scores (not including soft scores).
