G40 League House Rule project

I appreciate the interest
I normally wait for a player to cross into the next tier a bit so I don’t have to switch them back and forth as often if they win and lose back and forthAnyway, Snake needs to prove himself a bit more, because while he very consistently beats weaker players, he does not currently have a winning record against a single tier 1 player.
I am pleased to see his huge rise up the rankings over the past few months. I was one of the first to play him, in late February. I was pretty sure he showed a lot of promise, and I told him so. He made a lot of good decisions in our games. So I’m pleased to see that I was right about him :-) And that I didn’t get snake-bit! :-D
-
Since snake has only been defeated by tier 1 players so far, I wager than he’ll make it :-)
-
*that
-
Yes, should be just a matter of time. Plus, I think he’s improved rapidly as he’s moved along the learning curve, so another result or two and he’ll probably be in the club :-)
-
Looking briefly at the R7 map between RGP and Snake, it looks like a contested game, and Snake’s last post was July 22.
I’m going to wait a bit before I count it in my rankings…
RGP appears to be entitled to a league win according to league rule #5.
I will note it at the bottom for now -
To count it as a league win due to delay, it has to be posted to my inbox and/or to the league results thread.
-
I decided it’s time to count RGP over Snake in the rankings -
I only hesitated to count it before because it looked like he had barely timed out and he had been pretty active for several monthsAnyway, doesn’t matter, I’m counting it now
-
Man, it looks like I’m right where I belong in the rankings. I’ve won only a single game against players ranked higher than me and have conversely only lost a single game against players ranked lower.

I appreciate the observation -
I actually have noticed that this is quite true of several other players as wellIt’s amazing how well it works, considering it’s pretty simple
-
I count 346 results where a higher ranked player won over a lower one, compared to 73 losses
That’s .826, or nearly 5/6 of the games.
You could say that on average, a higher ranked player will beat a lower one 5/6 of the time.
Seems the rankings are very accurate! Who needs ELO?! :-) -
I’m only 1/8 against higher ranking players. :cry:
Need to turn up the heat some . . . maybe I’ll beat both you and RGP who has shot up the ranks to #2 atm!
-
Well you need to start rolling better for my defenders, and not so good for yourself! :lol:

-
Yes, no doubt. There are very few series wins of a lower ranked player over a higher one, and where there are, the lower ranked player is very few ranks below the higher.
It’s working out great. This system will no doubt be used for the foreseeable future

Just an FYI: Snake has been on holidays for the past 3 weeks. According to a post in our game it came up at the last minute so he may not have been able to send it to all of his opponents. That may explain the delay.
-
Thanks - I can certainly undo it if he comes back and they finish
-
not sure if I should post here but for the record keeper, I should have 2 victories vs mryogen. I guess one might not have been reported.

I found both of them posted in the game results thread, so I must have missed one of them. It’s included now.
I’m glad you caught it -
i see i have officially slipped to tier 2 status. if we stay with the tier we begin the year with, then i just want to apologize in advance to my 2014 opponents.
:-D
