And I hear you on the adding one more tier - 5 is a lot - pluses and minuses

Big plus is, playas like Adam, AD, and Oysteilo are in a class of their own, not mixed with the 4.5’s

You know what might be cool and alleviate some of this speculation as to why certain high rate jimmies don’t play lower players? What if we had some kind of team game where it was one of the big 3 versus all the rest of us. Not for league points or anything, just for fun. This would allow a lot of players to learn a lot about the game. It’s kind of like those old USSR versus the Rest Of The World chess matches, but in this case the “rest of the world” would all, well, not be in the same class as the top rate.

Just a thought. I mean, the high rates not playing the low rates has been an A&A issue for well over 20 years now. It doesn’t matter the ranking system. Gamer’s system does predict results very, very well, so that part is impressive, at least to me. It would just be cool if we had more knowledge passed around. The strategy boards aren’t what they used to be.

But none of this is as complicated as trying to figure out how to put your own fishing line on a reel, when you’re a tax accountant lmao. bb soon. :D

I have played thousands and thousands of games of chess, so I totally understand ELO and what you guys are arguing, just so you know. How many hours of thought was put into that 55 move chess game? I’m no grandmaster, but I’ve never had a chess game come anywhere near the level of effort of an A&A game

Okay, you don’t understand old correspondence chess at all. I mean, there could be 200 hours in a game lol.

Of course now since the late 90’s there are computers. Sad days.

There could be 200 hours on a move. LOL

No hurt, I’m just kind of tired of defending my system for so many years.
It’s not chess, it’s not starcraft, there’s weaknesses in every system, but frankly I think this system is dynamite.

Length of game, I meant in hours of effort, not in how many years of correspondence - again, apples and oranges, you guys! lol

Again, this system is really good. The problem is that it discourages play between the ranks. Gamer, honestly, I think this only happened (as an issue) when the M was introduced, and then there were games where beating someone wasn’t as good as losing to someone. Maybe the losing to M equals beating a 3. I’ll have to look, but this change (5 years ago or so???) was the bad part. Otherwise, it’s really cool.

Yeah, that’s not how it works here. Unlike chess, we have a very small number of games played because this game takes a lot longer than chess. Not really comparable. This system really works well for our purposes, and if I get much more criticism, someone else is going to have to take over because I’m not even playing the game any more.

Okay, this is a slight fallacy. Back in the 1980’s when I started playing correspondence chess, there was an ELO system in place for both the USCF and the ICCF (international organization). My longest correspondence game (in time) ended in 2 years, 8 months (67 move draw). So, our games indeed do not take as long as that. ;)

For an ELO system to work for us, however, it has to take in account dice. So, a master beating a Class C should be minimal in gains, but yet it should be worth something, because the “master” is taking a dice chance of losing.

So, for those who want an ELO system, remember that this isn’t chess, it’s a strategy dice game.

Hey, I clearly finished 3 games. Just sayin. :P
