Guys, I'm amazed by you... one moment you're talking about the "current" rating, and the next about how to calculate the rating for the VK tournament... you need to make up your mind because these are not the same thing!
Let's start...
First: to AmberSoler, please excuse me, but I perceive this post as mere sophistry and therefore arguing here is pointless...
Second: how to calculate the VK tournament? In my view, there are no problems here, since this tournament fulfills all the conditions I described here. Let's figure it out... if we calculate the VK tournament rating according to your system, what happens? It becomes more profitable to play only in the final stages because decay will destroy all the rating gained in the early stages... and that is wrong! All ten stages of this tournament are equal! And there should be no decay here!
If (for example) we look at how ratings are calculated in sports, where there are similar stages... then the final rating (very often) is calculated based only on the participants' placed positions (i.e., according to the second component of the rating presented by the esteemed AmberSoler).
In my view, the rating for the VK tournament should be calculated as follows:
First: for each stage individually!
At the same time, let's say n-people participated in all stages. Consequently, for each stage, the rating must be calculated for n-participants, regardless of whether only n/10 (for example) people sent their saves! The rating of someone not participating in a given stage will be zero. And the rating must take into account the number of participants.
Second: after the final stage, you need to sum up the players' ratings across all stages, and whoever has the higher total wins!
P.S. to IronAxe, I have a request: if you write my nick, please write it in Latin or in Russian, but correctly. Thanks in advance.
Respectfully.
