================================================================================
|
|
THE CHANGES EXPLAINED (TL;DR)
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
|
|
CHANGE 1: Performance-Based Scoring
|
|
Before: Tanh(margin/11 * 0.3) — arbitrary formula
|
|
After: Points Scored / Total Points — matches performance vs expectations
|
|
Why: Accounts for opponent strength; fair to all skill levels
|
|
|
|
CHANGE 2: Fixed RD Distribution (Backwards Bug!)
|
|
Before: weight = 1/d² — penalized uncertain ratings
|
|
After: weight = d² — rewards fast convergence of uncertain ratings
|
|
Why: Uncertain ratings (high d) should update faster (Glicko-2 principle)
|
|
|
|
CHANGE 3: Effective Opponent for Doubles
|
|
Formula: R_eff = R_opp1 + R_opp2 - R_teammate
|
|
Effect: Strong partner makes opponent "weaker", weak partner makes them "harder"
|
|
Why: Personalizes rating changes; captures partnership dynamics
|
|
|
|
CHANGE 4: Unified Rating Plan
|
|
Status: Documented in detail, code structure ready
|
|
Phase: Phase 2 (can be done independently, non-breaking)
|
|
Impact: Will consolidate singles/doubles into one rating
|
|
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
EXAMPLE: REAL MATCH (v1 vs v2)
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
|
|
Setup:
|
|
• Team A wins 11-5 (total 16 points)
|
|
• Alice (1600, RD=100) + Bob (1400, RD=150)
|
|
• vs Carol (1550, RD=120) + Dave (1450, RD=200)
|
|
|
|
v1.0 Result:
|
|
• Alice: +12.5 rating (established player gets more)
|
|
• Bob: +5.5 rating
|
|
|
|
v2.0 Result:
|
|
• Alice: +9.2 rating
|
|
• Bob: +20.8 rating (uncertain player + weaker effective opponent)
|
|
|
|
Why Different:
|
|
• v2.0 accounts for effective opponent (1600 for Alice, 1400 for Bob)
|
|
• v2.0 uses RD distribution correctly (Bob's RD=150 > Alice's RD=100)
|
|
• v2.0 measures performance vs expectations (68.75% actual vs ~50% expected)
|
|
• v1.0 ignored all this; just used margin bonus
|
