If you replace in, I dont think there should be any bonus point awarded. I think points should be assessed only if a faction wins the game.

In addition, i think that if your faction loses the game then no points are given to that faction other than the participation points.

Re: TWG 2016 Ranked Test Thread

bonus points give an incentive to sign up as a replacement which is something that should absolutely be encouraged

plus it's not like the bonus will overwhelmingly tip the balance for people who replace in so I don't see the harm in it tbh

My guess is the 13 all-stars will be the 13 people who played the most games

Re: TWG 2016 Ranked Test Thread

My goal is to avoid that.

What if I factor in points to win percentage?

I think to avoid that it would have to involve doing that pretty heavily, as it stands I think a hybridization wouldn't really stop that from happening

EDIT: I think to avoid players making the game by playing a lot, you would have to make win % a significant factor, while also decreasing the significance of signing up for games/replacing into games.

Re: TWG 2016 Ranked Test Thread

have a minimum games played requirement
if you meet the requirements, determine win/loss ratio

Re: TWG 2016 Ranked Test Thread

aka don't factor in amount of games played
someone with 5 wins and 5 losses is the same as someone with 3 wins and 3 losses

Re: TWG 2016 Ranked Test Thread

I think a minimum of 5-6 games is a good idea

See spreadsheet. I'm working with something that MIGHT work.

It factors in Win % to games played with total points. Hopefully by doing this it prevents "most games wins" and "play 1 game, win with 100% never play again" logic.

I don't think games played should matter too much, if at all tbh, aside from a minimum
