Perception of Top 10 Clans [Annually + Longevity]

[Blitzaholic]

why not? just not enough interested in your clan?

she is in vdll, they are out... sometimes you just have no idea what are you writing

Obviously not doing much background work on l4d, maybe I should change my prediction

lol, well, I thought they were, but when she said she is not playing in the cup, I got confused. Then, I remembered L4D just played them and was real close match if I heard right.

On the moment this cup started I was quite busy, missed it somehow. So I did not play this cup at all, next time better.

Where's our latest challenge?

It is not counted in this ladder, since we are now an A clan and they are a B clan. Basically means we beat them too bad for it to count.

Maybe it should not count fully, but, partially or half or something, I don't know.

[Blitzaholic]

year 2008 to 2010, JP's latest

Both Tier 1 (Gold) and Tier 2 (Silver) RPI Ladders use the following:

• Both use the RPI formulation of Win% (WP), Opponent's Win% (OWP) and Opponent's Opponent's Win% (OOWP)
• A ladder contains only the results of A vs A clans. If a B rated Clan defeats or shows A level status in a challenge (>=40 games) against an A clan (aka qualifying challenge), that challenge and clan will be added to the A ladder results. All previous results of the promoted B clan do not transfer over. B ladder contains all other results and all A level clans are hidden in the B ladder
• The A Ladder also includes Season 1 of the League (in total vs an opponent called Season 1), but is not included in the W-L-T record. The league is weighted less due to the amount of Doubles played in Season 1.
• Most historical data is grandfathered. A ladder results need a minimum of 40 games, B ladder results need a minimum of 30 games.
• There is a Decay Factor which lessens the impact of older challenges. After 2 years, the factor is 0 and that challenge is removed from the database
• The is also a Depth Factor. This factor places a higher weighting on larger challenges above the minimum game numbers.
• I have added total Games to show the experience levels of clans
• The A ladder has an additional factor call "Team Play". This factor is to promote a balance of Dubs-Trips-Quads. The target is an average of 2.85 to 3.15 players per game.
• The A ladder has an additional factor for winning after the RPI is calculated so that not only do you have to face good opponents, you need to win. This essentially lowers the need to raise your win% of games (eg 40-0 or 21-19) but does not eliminate it.
• Ladder will be updated periodically and after significant challenges

congratz to all who made it .

ok, thx Jp, great work, and I appreciate all the effort you put into this.

The League regular season should end in about 4-6 weeks. KORT, BPB should get some boost based on their success.

I hope so, they both near the bottom, only can go up from that you would think.

[Blitzaholic]

JP our last challenge should not be 0.1 months ago, it should read 0.0. I mean we just won a significant game for 41 just now.

Incandenza on Sun Mar 21, 2010 10:30 pm
Waterloo quads just went final, so the win is official. Just one more active game (tho that might go on for another month).

Thanks again to the Monkis for an amazing challenge, you guys are badass.

from Inc.'s post, you can see the date and time. Although I have 12:30am Mon March 22, 2010

[jpcloet]

You do realize that 0.1 = 3 days....

Anyways, the date can be modified but I'm using the significant completion date. Not going to make a big difference.

[Snowgun]

Is this seriously accurate for ++the legion++? 5.6 for last challenge? 1-5-0 WLT ratio? could we get this computed again?

I realize this, but, we do want it accurate It would be 0.1 on March 25th and there is still a game active.

I think he only counted the last 2 years, so this would be from March 2008 til present, does that seem accurate Snowgun?

I will verify. The inclusion of the league did mean a few challenges with the pivot tables so not completely automated.

ouch, but, those are some pretty good clans to be fair.

[Snowgun]

So we don't count the wins against any "B" clans huh? Most of those wins were before this A and B raking system anyway. Well, we'll have to make sure we put some A listers in the wins column.

Also, whats this "last Challenge" number. We are in a challenge right now!

[VampireM]

i believe its the last completed challenge, so once ur current challenge ends u will got back to 0 or 0.1 as ur last challenge

[Incandenza]

Just out of curiosity, why do Legion's wins against B clans get discarded, yet a loss to a B clan like the Wort (a disbanded B clan at that) get counted? Seems like some double jeopardy to me.
