Because StarCraft is twice as awesome and is modern so it honors the 21st century. Don't you guys know anything.

that was very witty of you.
How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano

The all-time record could be broken tomorrow! 3-0 would surely give Bisu another 24 points. Don't know about 3-1. 3-2 shouldn't be enough.

What are the K-values/etc used in the TL elo system?

3-0 wouldn't give him 24 points. ELO does not work that way.

well, we could just simulate it and see

1-0: 2321
2-0: 2329
3-0: 2336 (tied with Flash for highest peak)

bisu would definitely lose points if he went 3-2, 3-1 probably breakeven or slight increase. obviously, if he loses the series he'll be down below 2300.

Just because I thought it made for nicer looking numbers, basically . What you start with doesn't actually matter.

From the numbers Hot_Bid posted, it looks like TLPD uses a K value of ~20 for their scoring. (or at least when the players are close in rating)

So with WLWW for Bisu, his new ELO should be approx 2325.


edit - ah, looks like they've added the games already

have you guys considered a bayesian prior distribution in order to prevent inflation?

Inflation hasn't been a significant issue in practice with Starcraft Elos, according to my checks (and at any rate, Elo systems may actually have a tendancy towards *de*flation - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating#Mathematical_details). But a Bayesian model might be ideal.

Bisu can go to hell. If this keeps up he is only setting himself up for the fall later when him and savior face off in the finals (Savior destroy obv.).
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
