Quick question for Totoca12

Are the week matches randomised, do we have to challenge someone or would the organisers fit matches to the Elo ranking of players?

Come on, man. It's all on the first post.

MATCH MAKING:
The match making works by pairing people together in a random way using a program. The matches will happen between people from the same ranks, with rare exceptions. Some of those exceptions might happen whenever we have 2 close ranks (only 1 rank apart) with an uneven number of players in each one of them. Whenever that happens we will have the last placed available (not in a break or a challenge) player in the rank above facing the first placed available player in the rank below, so it will still be somewhat fair. Other exceptions are the challenges (that will be discussed at some point below) and MAYBE some bonus rounds.

SCORING:
You'll start the season with 1000 points.
Anyone joining Ranked Ghosters after the beginning of the season will only be getting 950 points.
We will use an ELO scoring system (similar to Chess), and with this system whoever you are facing, using this calculator (https://www.omnicalculator.com/sports/elo with the K factor set to 100) will determine how many points you will lose/win.
Examples:
if player 1 has 1000 points and player 2 has 1000 points. if each player wins they gain 50 points and the other loses 50.
if player 1 has 1250 points and player 2 has 1000 points. if player 1 wins the match he/she will gain 19 points and the other loses 19.
if player 1 has 1000 points and player 2 has 1250 points. if player 1 wins the match he/she will gain 81 points and the other loses 81.
if player 1 has 1130 points and player 2 has 1090 points. if player 1 wins then he/she will win 44 points. and the other loses 44.
if player 1 has 1090 points and player 2 has 1130 points. if player 1 wins then he/she will win 56 points. and the other loses 56.
and etc...

CHALLENGES:
- You can challenge a player for a match (if he didn't took a break that week) to try to win more points than usual. But if you lose, you are going to lose more points than usual as well. The standard score for this will be gaining/losing extra points than what it was supposed to be. +10 or -10 points for challenges between people from the same rank or 1 rank apart. For 2 ranks apart we have +15/-15, for 3 ranks apart +20/-20, for 4 ranks apart it's +25/-25, for 5 ranks apart it's +30/-30 and for 6 ranks apart it's +40/-40 extra points. Right now, you can use up to 2 challenges for every 10 weeks and you can only challenge people from the same rank or ranks above you. Each player can be challenged 5 times per season and you have to announce your challenge at least one day before the beginning of a match. The player challenged is forced to accept the challenge.

PS: You don't HAVE TO use the challenges, it's totally optional.

No, because fuzzyman8 already challenged someone.

Yeah, you can make 2 challenges for each 10 rounds, so you can still use one until round 20.

Not this round, since I already challenged a_drain.

Nope. He already challenged DrChill.

You can't, Coated_Badger challenged him.

You can't, RubeGoldberger challenged him.

Ok, guys, we had enough. The next one who keeps spamming this thread with irrelevant posts will be prevented to post here for a while, so I would advise you guys to think about your posts first.

Edit: Might delete some irrelevant posts.
Edit2: LilChompy can't post on this thread for a day.

You only can consider challenging me in the next Monday, meaning it for Week 13, since I'm already on a challenge for Week 12. Also, you don't need to let someone challenge you. If they are in the same rank as you or in a rank below they can challenge you if they want (if you are not on a break).

and i was just 11 points away from reaching Gold, too...

congratulations Xenom, although you used a morally wrong ghosting contest tactic and i'm still quite salty about it, you won fair-and-square. in fact, i might have to challenge you again in later weeks just to get my revenge. you're definitely an up-and-coming ghoster, so i'd like to see you climb higher in the standings later on. congrats again.

all i'm going to say regarding this is keep in mind i "like" almost every post on this thread.

I had like no time, so I stole my dads computer, and got lucky, beat your time in only 5 minutes, lol

homie you can't be serious, how did you manage to beat my time by seven hundredths of a second one minute before the deadline?
i actually don't believe it, i will accept your victory only if T12's screenshots confirm it. your updated time is too close for comfort.

YourKidding exactly what i was thinking, except i thought it was pulling a Cerulean?
edit; nevermind, just read past FRWC5 posts and realized it was Cerulean who pulled a Backtwice on RedOrBlue in the quarterfinals, a tactic that DrChill and Giampitek also used. interesting.

I think we can all agree that this whole forum and ranked is the gnarliest community arranged thing on this website minus like one or two of the old ghosting collabs
