May i ask you why The Wrong Alliance have 119 point? They won the match with flawless victory, that means didn't loose any ship.

Maybe it's me...but shouldn't the teams with a flawless points score be reversed in number order....currently the top rank team is in that position as their first round opponents finished higher than everyone else's....should that spot not be taken by the team with the 125 score who's opponents finished lowest from the 64 ?
ie.. Puppett masters are in top spot with 125...their opponents finished 33rd..
10th legion on the same points (125) had their opponents finish 63rd...should they not be in top spot ? due to the fact that they had less in points loss than appears everyone above them....the fact that their opponents were DQ's is irrelevant..they had no shiups lost... :-) |

Hmm. They didn't lose any ships and they used 100 points right on. |

Just a quick FYI. We will take down the schedule for now, as we will resolve any rankings disputes before finalising the matches.
We will post the schedule again in a day or so. |

Isn't this something to do with the fact it's based on this 'resistance' thing whereby the team that managed to beat such a successful loser must therefore be uber and not fail.
Tbh it does seem a bit borked after just one round, but it does make sense as a system. |

According to this model, the way to get highest ranking is to let your opponent kill a bunch of your ships before finishing them off.
Not really worth a big stress-fest over though, since all those 125s will be tie-broken by whatever they kill this next round. With this format there haven't been a lot of 0 point losses.

As I understand it "Last Opponent Rank" should be opponent points scored or something like that. Meaning those are the points you let your opponent score against you.

And as I understand it it roughly translates to "if points scored are equal, the team that had to fight harder against their opponent to win (figured by how many points they scored against you which translates to how high the looser is in the rankings) gets the higher rank."
In other words, a total wtfpwn is worth less in the standings than a hard fought close match.
You can argue it I guess but once it gets to the finals it won't matter as I think points are reset and it goes to single elimination brackets. |

Ya it's in the rules.
1. Each team has 100 points to select their ships. Teams must use a minimum of 75 points.
2. Each team may have up to 10 ships on the battlefield.
3. Unused points will be added to the opponents score.

I see us (the fourth district) on 105pts. As our opponents fielded 99pts worth of ships which were all destroyed and we won therefore claiming a 25% pt bonus (rounding up) I make our total to be 124pts. Which we can then add the 1pt unused by our opponents bringing us upto the magic 125pts. Not sure how you came up with 105pts... |

Oh, i see, you want to fight against PL to help out R.U.R., dont u? 
To my Hungarian mates in The Wrong Alliance: Although it wont change your ranking whether you have 125 or 119 pts, but you earned 125 pts and it does matter if points are not be reseted after the qualifying rounds, so you are totally right.

As mentioned by the teams in question, it looks like we made a couple of minor errors in the rush to update all the stats and get next weeks schedule out. As such, the following teams should be on full points:
- The Fourth District
- The Wrong Alliance
The teams rankings will be updated accordingly later today, once we double check the whole lot. This will cause a few of the matchups to change slightly from the schedule that was originally posted last night, which will also be placed back online later today.
If you are in an alliance other than the two mentioned above, and you think you have the incorrect number of points - please speak up now!

Wtf Hungarian hax?
Btw, I suggest you CCP next time to clarify how points should be calculated through examples as this time was a little bit confusing - or simply I don't have the brain to see clearly.

Total points are calculated by:
Unused points of opponent + Ships killed
If you win, you get an extra 25%

The rankings have a direct effect on that list. We aim to have the match listings for next week back online tonight or early tomorrow.
The match ups will be in order of rank, so 1v2, 3v4, 5v6, 7v8 ... 63 v 64. If the ranks change, the matchups change (only slightly at this stage).

I do not see how that match up system is fair. The better you do the harder the opponent you have. Doesn't seem right.

Welcome to the swiss matchup system. It works well for chess, Magic the Gathering and Warhammer tournaments.

The Swiss system is far superior to others in this case, who wants to see/listen to a match up called: Tyson vs Billy "The Beer Belly" Johnson?
Besides, with the prizes what they are I think most people are in this for bragging rights which you just don't get wading through weak-sauce to the finals
By the way, has anyone calculated the average match length this year, I have a feeling the no Logistics has had a massive impact .. some matches seem awfully short ... hahahaha

I would really hate to drag this out any further, but please tell me how the current second criteria is locical. Teams now, that had perfect matches - kind of THD from earlier tournaments are ranker lower than teams who lost half their fleet.
Swiss system says, having a higher score opponent lose against you must mean you are better than someone losing against a lower score opponent, which is fine.
But in here, especially in the first round, where all opponents are equal in score, having a higher 'opponents' score actually means you did suck more than those who did kill their opponents without giving them points.
I could imagine something like this instead: points scored - points the opponent scored. If thats equal, then go ahead with the other criteria, like the point total of the opponents BEFORE this round, whether you did fight eachother in the past, initial draw, etc.
Currently its just weird.
My post does not represent the general or official opinion of anyone else besides me. No matter what YOU believe.
