I don't understand your issue. Please explain again with short sentences to let me know:
FFAs
meaningCan I get the full match result set to understand each number? I guess Player 2 has not finished enough games.
Without the full match history there's not comment to make here. sublee is being very patient with you jhansen461. The bottom line is if trueskill thinks player 2 is the best there are generally three possible reasons for this:
1) Player 2 has beaten Player 1 a lot (this effectively rewards Player 2 over Player 1 with mu growth) 2) Player 2 has beaten more people than Player 1 (this also effectively rewards Player 2 with more mu growth than Player 1 generally) 3) Player 2 has played more games than player 1 (over time sigma shrinks and so the ranking which is mu-3*sigma) goes up simply by virtue of recording results any results).
It's not clear from your info at all in which games player 1 and 2 are playing together and which ones they aren't, if the lists are exhaustive (i.e the whole history of Player 1 and Player 2) and what your external identifier is.
The only way to be sure of what's going on is to step through all the match results and appraise. But you can do that too. Find one that puzzles you look at the rankings and the updates and ask questions about that.

I ran multiple large FFAs. Some of the FFAs consist of large parts of the population while others are much smaller. I noticed that one player who only did a few of the smaller FFAs and performed relatively poorly had the largest mu of all the players while still maintaining a relatively small sigma. Does this appear to be an issue with my setup, this implementation of trueskill, or an issue with trueskill itself?
Here is my setup: draw_probability = 0, mu = 25, sigma = mu / 3, beta = sigma / 4
I have bolded the matches where both players competed. Matches are listed in chronological order.
