[HLL]Point System

[Vazdru]

Personally i prefer 2 because of following reason:

It mustn't be a strategical instrument not to play a match so anyone else is gonna be excluded from the league. It should always be better to win a match as to wait if anyone else drops or is excluded from the league.

But i won't decide this question on my own - so everyone else is welcome to post his opinion.

The second question is the game-scorce 2:0, 1:0, 0:0.

Votes do not count without leaving a message on this board.

My vote: 2 Pts (1:0)



Edit: Opened till Friday.

I assume that any such points to be awarded would occur after a player drops, and before the match in question even occurs.

I think I would vote for 0 points.

Under normal points system, a player earns 1 point for a tie, which - excluding all factors of luck, of course - means that he played at least well enough to stave off a defeat. To earn more points without even having put in that effort seems counter-intuitive to me.

I think there should be no points!
If one doesn't play all of his matches, thats his fault.
I try to play each match, and I want to have an advantage from that. If I would have gotten 2 points for each match, I would have more points than I have now.

0 points, otherwise the system becomes even more exploitable.

Even now nothing stops a random scrub from registering several aliases on the tournament, play some games and choose eventually the ones that are winning.

Ok - the votes are clear.

Should i post repairings for the guys who can't reach 14 matches instead? Sounds fair to me. Otherwise those guys are unable to reach the same number of matches like e. g. Georg or me due the drop of Ludwitch - that would be unfair too!?

[Georg B]

I think that should be fair.
If the number of players is odd I think the one of those with the fewest points should get a bye.

We have more than one player in Season VII with same match-points like a season before (in season VI there have been three players with 27 points each).

The ranking has been settled for season VII and VI as follows:

* match-points
* match-win-percentage
* game-win-percentage
* direct comparision
* more wins


Should we value the direct comparision higher than game-win-percentage or even match-win-percentage in season no. 8??

Opinions?!

The ranking will be settled for season VIII as follows:

* match-points
* match-win-percentage
* game-win-percentage
* direct comparision
* more wins

*closed*
