Player rating for tournaments across all installments of Heroes.

But wouldn't this thing work?

Or maybe we should just calculate the total rating of all participants in the tournament and divide it by the number of participants. This would be the coefficient. Maybe it would be simpler for calculations.

Where it is higher, it means it is more difficult to play for anyone :)

Quoting:
"It's not the absolute strength of the players that matters, but the relative one! For example, if only mega-dinosaurs, the strongest players, participate in one tournament, then the tournament coefficient is equal to 1. In the second tournament, only beginners participate. The coefficient will also be close to 1. Because everyone is equal and no one competes with a stronger player, and in both cases, everyone has the same chance of winning."

What does "it means it is more difficult to play for anyone" mean?

In my first example, the average rating will simply be off the charts, but the dinosaurs won't find it "more difficult" to play compared to the second example, where the average rating will be low... In the second example, it will also be "not easy" for everyone to play - at their level... But if a beginner gets to the dinosaurs - that's what is called more difficult! :) And only in this case does he (and no one else) need support...

Otherwise, it will turn out that the dinosaurs gathered, calculated the average rating, rubbed their hands, and set a high coefficient for themselves - what a joy!

Announcement: "In order to hold the P. Lumumba Memorial Tournament, a group of players invites all those who wish to participate in the tournament with a rating of at least 950. Those with lower ratings are asked not to apply."

Should we apply it like this?

The whole point is this. The same coefficient always benefits the leaders, increasing the point difference between the players.

I said: "It is possible to take this into account in such a way that the coefficient provides more support to the weak than to the strong... we just need to think about it..." This means - NOT the same coefficient, which means it does not benefit the leaders, but supports the lagging players to a greater extent... :)
