Divisions » 2015 Fall Thursday » View

This is the recommended choice for large divisions (16 teams or more), divisions where there is a large variation in team skill levels, or divisions where there are not enough games in the season for every team to play every other team.

Division standings are based on team ratings, with rating points either transferred from the loser of a game to the winner, or regularly recalculated based on all known results.

NOTE: If you use this schedule type, be sure not to select the "None" rating calculator.

The Wager ratings calculator is the current recommended choice.

This uses a wagering system, where the final score determines the total amount of the pot. It's based around a winning score of 15 points and tweaked to produce the same ratings change for similar point differentials for higher/lower final scores.

Each team contributes a percentage of the pot based on their expected chance to win. The losing team always takes away the same number of rating points as their game points, while the winning team takes away the remainder.

Thus, the point differential change amounts to:

(total_pot - loser_score - winner_wager)
