Think about a general metric for ranking players of an event

Inspiration:

• Great Canadian Board Game Blitz
• Kniziathon (organizer), Kniziathon (player)
• Rating System for Multiplayer Boardgames Tournaments with sporadic attendance

Points mechanism based on GCBGB. For time, use an half-an-hour basis (nb_hours can be 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0,....)

Classical games:

1. 5 * nb_hours points
2. 4 * nb_hours points
3. 2 * nb_hours points
4. (and more) 1 * nb_hours points

Ties are broken by game rules, or if not possible, each player at a rank receives the rank points. For people playing in teams (e.g. because the game allows max 4 players and we are five). I suggest that they are assigned the same rank, and therefore get the same number of points.

'One vs rest' games (all games where players are ranked in two groups)

1. 5 * nb_hours points per player
2. 2 * nb_hours points per player

'All vs game' games (all games where players are ranked in one group):

• [win] 5 * nb_hours points per player
• [lost] 2 * nb_hours points per player

Note that, in the API, the duration associated to a game is in minutes
