ELO System % Correction Factor proliferates selfish players

[GEN_Schwarzkopf]

Hi eSVau,

I can see what is already posted on the ELO http://league.btanks.net
Plus I can see the relation between the stats posted for each game and the corresponding % correction.

If all variables are approximately the same except one in a data stats comparison, then you have isolated it and can extrapolate it's weighting, especially if the factors are linear. (Linear/Matrix Algebra) (I'll bet dollars to donuts they are linear.)

This process can be repeated for each variable. Given enough data stats to mine you can determine a formula just from the data.

But let's not beat around the bush here, do you have the formula or know who does? Perhaps then the real discussion can begin.

Are you able to post the formula eSVau?
