How Friday Rankings are calculated

Friday Singles Ranking:

• Everybody starts with 0 points.
• The points will be added up for one year, than start with 0 all over again.
• For just showing up and playing you receive 1 point
• For each game won on the winnerbracket you receive 2 points (incl. first game)
• For each game won on the loserbracket you receive 1 point

For beating a stronger opponent factors for each win will be added:

• 0.25 if your opponents skill level is higher by 1
• 0.5 if your opponents skill level is higher by 2
• 0.75 your opponents skill level is higher by 3
• 1 if your opponents skill level is higher by 4 (or more)

(e.g. you show up, play 2 games, 1 game you win on the winnerbracket against an opponent with a higher skill level of 2….for this evening you will receive 1+2+0.5=3.5 points)

(the higher your points, the lower your rank….therefore rank 1^st means best in class)

Fridays Doubles Ranking:

• Everybody starts with 0 points.
• The points will be added up for one year, than start with 0 all over again.
• For just showing up and playing you receive 1 point
• For each game won on the winnerbracket each member of the team receives 2 points (incl. first game)
• For each game won on the loserbracket each member of the team receives 1 point

For beating a stronger team a factor for each win will be added:

0.25 if your opponents team skill level is higher by 2

(e.g. you show up, play 2 games, 1 game you win on the loserbracket against a team with a higher skill level of 2….for this evening you will receive 1+1+0.25=3.25 points)

(the higher your points, the lower your rank….therefore rank 1^st means best in class)

(since we don’t play with constant team members, each individual will be ranked separately)

ELO- Singles Ranking (used internationally, but not on our weekly rankings):

Everybody starts first with an estimated ranking number:

•  Noob                250       Skill Level 1
• Rookie              750       Skill Level 2
• Amateur           1250     Skill Level 3
• Semi-Pro          1750     Skill Level 4,5
• Master              2250     Skill Level 6
• Elite                 2750     Skill Level >6

Every single game which is reported will be implemented into this ranking.

Depending if you win or loose your points will go up or down

(but beating a stronger opponent or loosing against a weaker one will have more influence on the points than against someone of your own level)

The actual calculation is quite difficult. If you are more interested in details please write us and I will be happy to explain.
