Formula Homework
These rows show the team ratings used in the adjustment calculation. The computed delta is the signed rating change produced by the current v0.6 formula.
| # | Player Team ( AVG ) | Opponent Team ( AVG ) | Winner-Loser VIPR Diff | Computed Delta |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2.9058 | 3.0334 | +0.1276 | -0.0065 |
| 2 | 2.9794 | 2.9672 | +0.0122 | +0.0096 |
| 3 | 2.8905 | 2.9938 | +0.1033 | -0.0071 |
| 4 | 2.9140 | 3.0671 | +0.1531 | -0.0059 |
Rating movement formula
Team VIPR = average - (average - lower partner) * CRF, with CRF = 0.40.
Adjustment = 0.02 / (1 + 10 ^ (2.5 * (winner team VIPR - loser team VIPR))).
Winning partners both receive +adjustment. Losing partners both receive -adjustment.
Score margin is recorded for context but is not currently part of the v0.6 formula.
First game check: winner-loser VIPR diff +0.1276 -> computed delta -0.0065; 2.8700 -0.0065 = 2.8635
