Adjust TR increase/decrease per match #527

Open Ads20000 opened 4 years ago

Ads20000 commented 4 years ago

Checklist (issue will be disregarded & closed if incomplete!)

[x] I've checked both open and recently closed issues to ensure this feature is not already requested.
[x] I am using the newest version of TETR.IO.
[x] I am certain this is a feature request, not a bug.
[x] I've thought this feature through properly.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

TR seems to increase and decrease too quickly - i.e. a few matches won (but more than lost in that period) results in a rank rise and a few matches lost (but more than won in that period) results in a rank lost.

Describe the solution you'd like

Reduce the amount TR increases or decreases each match (effectively multiply the current calculated change per match ( x ) by a number less than 1 before it is applied to TR, or similar)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Folks just need to get used to the current TR change per match.

that just means the game doesnt know your skill range too well

Like #262 this is another issue I've heard from people which I don't necessarily agree with, happy for it to be closed in due course, just keen for there to be a place for discussion rather than muttering behind your back!

it's pretty much based from your Glicko-2 rating; you shall really read more about those

In future I will link people to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glicko_rating_system then thanks for your suggestion

Actually, http://www.glicko.net/glicko/glicko2.pdf is the proper link to be linked.

Perhaps but I'm not sure how many people will want to read the academic-style paper whereas people may be able to grasp the Wikipedia article :P

(having said that, the current version of the Wikipedia article is not noob-friendly either)

The higher your rank, the slower you gain TR. If I am an A-rank player, 1 match won will give me... lets say 700TR. But if I am an X-rank player, a match won would probably give me something like 50TR.

because the article does not include Glicko-2, which TETR.IO is currently using believe me, the paper is simple enough for a non-native to read (because I am one)

It's how GLIXARE works. You did not state which kind of rank your opponent is. It's better if you give me a particular rank of your opponent, or better yet, their Glicko-2 figures. Having said that, you also need a high rating deviation (which is this issue's topic) to actually reach that kind of figure, assuming you're battling against a top-0.5% player.
