Title: Exilian Chess Rankings
Post by: Jubal on July 31, 2013, 11:20:30 PM
Okay, this is the grand Exilian Chess Rankings Thread! Made a 0AD one so thought I'd make a chess one as well. There are lots of chess multiplayer thingies on the web

To enter the table, just post the result of any multiplayer game you've played. We're using an elo ranking system (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system#Mathematical_details) so your ranking change is very dependent on who you're playing and their rank compared to yours. Everyone starts out at 1000 points and goes upwards or downwards according to results. :)

Please do post after action reports too but ideally in separate threads - leave this for rankings discussion and banter.  ;D

Note that for these rankings a K-factor of 32 is being used.

Will snuck a quick win against me, followed by me beating him. I was narrowly winning a third game but had to go eat so we won't count that.

The quick win was a bit of a cheap shot. :)

I've not played before but I've read up on the rules. How do we set up games? Message me on skype if you want a game anyone.

A win vs Rob, very tight match  :)

EDIT: I need to write a python program to calculate ELO rankings really. Pain to calculate.
