Roger-ua declined the challenge.
From here on out, a completely standard sequence of events is expected.
...I think that the rating does not reflect the strength of the players. This is not my problem, but the problem of the rating system. I think it needs to be changed давно.
The rating is primarily statistics.
It reflects only activity and success, nothing more.
Even in tennis ratings, where tournaments are held every 2 weeks, the rating doesn't reflect true strength. If a player gets injured and doesn't play for several months, they quickly start falling down the rankings.
Strong players generally don't actively participate.
I repeat to each "generation" of players:
If you...[insert appropriate nickname] want to change the way the rating is calculated, then your algorithm should be as follows:
- clearly define what you want to propose;
- write formulas suitable for programming;
- program it yourself or find a programmer;
- suggest discussing your system with the forum;
- calculate using this system for a couple of seasons, get concrete results;
- conduct a vote - which is better - your system or the one that exists now.
And only then, if your system appeals to the forum, will it become the official formula.
