New Tournament Rating Calculating method
to determine ratings of players with rating's above 1800, when
there is an "under 100 game" total game sample size and
Where the players next highest rating has a greater number of games played".
To find the RC tournament rating:
We will proportionally blend the 2 or 3 ratings.
The next highest rating - will "weigh" that rating with a 100 game history weight.
The above 1800 small sample rating's will be weighed with it's game total.
The more games played the higher it affects their rating(rises the average) and
the fewer games played will conversely, only slightly rise the larger game sample rating.
see Formula and Examples below below:
Formula, to find a RC Tournament Rating:
(>1800 rating x # games) played +
(Lower rating x 100 game weight) = Combined ratings #.
Combined rating #, divided by combined # of games = New rating.
Example: First time this rule has been used "so far" in this tournament:
One players RC tournament rating was determined by:
Golbal rating (1714 x 100) games +
4v4 rating (1874 x 26) games =
Combined rating (220,384/126) total games = 1749
RC tournament Rating = 1749
