Questions about Glicko2

(1/2) > >>

nhbearit:
So I'm hoping someone from MUSE can answer a few questions for me. I was about to post a rebuttal to something Keyvias posted when I realized that I simply don't have the necessary information to really dig into what I perceive to be the problem with his line of thinking. I apologize in advance if any of the questions seem rude or interrogatory. I'm working on a pretty limited set of information as well as quite a few assumptions. If you've answered any of these questions elsewhere, again I apologize, I must have missed it, and I would appreciate it if you'd repeat yourself here. Basically all of the information I currently have about Glicko2 comes from: http://www.glicko.net/glicko/glicko2.pdf

1. Why Glicko2?

2. Glicko2 seems to have originally been created to rank 1 v 1 matches, how have you adapted it to fit GoIO?

3. Do you still use just one variable to rank players? (here I'm asking about the end variable, the Glicko score itself.)

4. Does anything, other than wins/losses, effect the Glicko score in your implementation?

5. Why do you feel using a ranking system is necessary?

6. When calculating the balance of a lobby (I'm assuming the ranking of individual ships as well) what process do you use? (simple addition of Glicko scores, or average, or whatever?)

7. What (if any) is your end goal for your system?

8. How does playing with AI effect the rating of a ship/team?

9. When coming up with your system, did you take inspiration from other games, and if so, which ones?

10. What advantages does a Glicko score give you over other methods?

11. How do you feel about the community regulating itself? (basically players deciding for themselves if a lobby is stacked.)

12. How does your system recognize teamwork? (Here I'm mostly concerned about how well certain players work together.)

GeoRmr:
That last point is the one I really want to know...

Hoja Lateralus:
If you really want to get your answers you should e-mail it to Muse, they don't always go through forum (because they're working).

I'm really looking forward to those answers.

Bearit lists some really great questions since this is the topic of the week it seems. I would definitely like Muse to post the response to these questions on the forum so everyone interested can be well informed. 

Keyvias:
Yeah email is your best bet, most of the questions would be answered by Jerry, but he doesn't do much forum stuff at all.

If you send in an email I'll make sure it gets forwarded to Jerry and then you can post the answers here.

Sound good?
