Ratings

*** As this was your suggestion Darrell how should it be presented? What
equations should I use? Note all ratings are factored by the 98% rule (on
page one of the ratings).

I like your suggested "Games Won/Games Played In".

If it is determined that drops want to be punished more harshley than losses, it could be "Games Won/(Games Played In + drops)". Notice that drops would already be counted in the "Games Played" so adding them in a second time would have the effect of making them count twice as much as a loss played to the end.

I'm fine with either.

I would like to see how you propose applying the win% to the 98% rule.

WHA? Did I miss something? Very cool!

So, now we have:
Win %
Voting
Games won - Games lost (with statistical analysis as to player strength)
Grudge Team win - loss (ugly numbers)
and finally The XP like one where it is a factor of turns played times teammates' ratings.

Glad to see VPs go. Only a couple more to remove and this won't be too bad.

Many players have been telling you, over and over again,
that VC's are gone. Similarly, the list has heard many
reasons FOR the ratings and have heard many different
interpretations of what effects the ratings will have on
the game overall... You have missed much, it seems.

And please understand the difference between VC's and VP's.
P is for Points and C is for Conditions. Very different
beast - one is still included in the Istari rating.

*** Not sure yet - what would you suggest? Points awarded can then degrade as per the Council rating?

VPs are still a part of the Istari rating system but no other. Note VCs aren't a part of that either.
