Re: Skill Rating & Leaderboards Discussion [Updated Feb 17]
So it has just dawned on me about something. The new leaderboard system makes it slightly easier to sandbag in divisions.
Case in point: I have several low D7 scores; some that could easily be in my top 4 and bump me up to around that area. Specifically my 5-0-1-1 You Time score, had I not missed, it would be in my top 4. I want to say same to my 11-0-1-3 but probably top 10 rather than top 4.
Players who intentionally miss or boo on purposely such as players like aarrgghh are easily capable of sandbagging when people use the new skill rating system to place people (This would never be the problem in the OT but it's slightly a problem in the current user tournaments).
I know that a change to this would require raw scoring instead of combo scoring which lolwon'thappenforayear because of obvious asinine coding involved into combo scoring and I already know staff is somewhat working on unravelling that code.
Any thoughts?
