Player rating for tournaments across all installments of Heroes.
But the calculations are more complex, and it's very difficult to verify... We'll see what he says after he has to process a lot of tournaments – whether this coefficient based on placement is actually needed.
This is difficult for you, as you've repeatedly said. Those who understand mathematics won't see any complexity in the calculations. And you probably just made a joke about "a lot of tournaments," right?
I don't want to go into the rest because you have a very narrow view of things, unfortunately...
You didn't even understand what my argument in the previous post was about:
What is the initial mistake? It's that you assume the current rating represents a player's skill. But that's not true. And we've been talking about this for a long time – the current rating has nothing to do with a player's skill.
The argument was against using the current rating of a specific player as a criterion for calculating the bonus. The reason is as above. It's all explained in detail with an example. And you've latched onto your rating again... You're ready to "punish" a player for missing a tournament (which is absurd), but you can't accept the fact of being "punished" for last place. :) And the second one is purely a game mechanic, unlike the first...
I didn't even touch on your calculations... But you keep seeing accusations that your theory is flawed... It's not even interesting anymore. Read my post again, and maybe you'll understand what I was trying to illustrate with the example... Honestly, I'm having a "déjà vu" moment. I stopped trying to have a conversation with you a long time ago because all your comments on any topic end up practically the same way. I don't know how to put it more simply... You're not capable of seeing the obvious flaws in your system, and I can't point them out to you because there's no argument in the world that would convince you – you've decided that for yourself. What else is there to say? The ability to critically evaluate your work is a big plus. You don't have it.
In history, there was a character – the Roman consul Marcus Porcius Cato the Elder, who became famous only for ending every speech he gave in the Senate on any topic with the words "Furthermore, I believe that Carthage must be destroyed" (Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam!). And he didn't care whether the Senate had gathered to discuss celebrating the upcoming New Year or, say, to pass a law on elections... In my opinion, you are his follower... ;)
