I just lost 25 points for beating a 5500ish rank player.  Oh, Goko.  *Laugh track*

[kn1tt3r]

That should be a bug.

No, no, it makes sense, because if the first game you ever play is losing to a 5000 player, that means you've got to be like 4000 or so. But then next you beat a 2000 player, well that's more like you're 3000, so you're just moving closer to your True Rating, it just happens to be a downward move. /s

But I thought they happily obliged to break their own ranking system by removed the whole lose-points-on-a-win thing, due to complaints.

No, you see, this sort of thing can't be just written down in a simple formula or algorithm.

This is the most respect-durable joke on the forum.

usually i defend the goko leaderboard, but not today.
Main reason of this is, that my rating dropped from 5.800 to 4700 during a 3/6 win/loss series.

i know i didn't play that much this summer, so uncertainty kicks in, but i was shocked yesterday.

I understand that it's theoretically possible, but it just shouldn't happen if a player at about 6200 (?) with a significant number of games beats a 5500-ish player. I did that myself yesterday and gained around 70 points.

At Goko the Ranking is unreal. There are so many Bugs. I played two Games and i won it and i got no Points. And there are so many other Bugs for example: Bishoph+Gold = 3 VP Whats up Goko ?

That is not true. It works ok. Just in log you can only see VP from trashing and not 1 VP which Bishop gives always.

1) Are you sure that you didn't get the points later?
2) Are you sure that you actually got only three tokens? The log doesn't mention you getting the first token, but you should still get it.

Nah, Scout jokes still do better.

[Watno]

Scout is so complicated, it can't be put in a formula.
