updated elo scoring so there is a maximum user tau #189

Closed eddycurry closed 4 years ago

eddycurry commented 4 years ago

Because there is no ceiling on user tau, some user get to a certain point where they can no longer really gain or lose elo. Setting a ceiling allows games to still be meaningful. chess.com uses a similar methodology.

LGTM, but does need tests, please and an entry in https://github.com/dblock/slack-gamebot/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md?

Perfect, thank you.

Do you use playplay.io @eddycurry? I'll deploy this soon and you've earned a free license if you want.

eddycurry commented 4 years ago

Awesome! Excited for the new scoring. Yes, my office uses it to record our ping pong games. We would definitely take a free license 😄
