There has been many arguing about the latest ranking system for the score thing.
I'm gonna try to explain in my words, hope you understand it cause it is really easy, here we go:
How to do SCORE real and reasonible:
First of ALL, Individual Score:
1. Every tic change, in every gal, some calculation is required (easy for a comp), to get the 'media' of the total nw in the gal. That means sumarize ALL player's nw and divide it by the number of players in the gal. That way you obtain the 'tic media nw'
2. The Individual NW Score is obtained by dividing personal nw by the tic media nw.
As example, if you have 35k nw and tic media nw is at 45'6k nw then it means you are below media and your score will be below 1 point: it is exactly 0'7675. Other nw similar to media will get a score around 1 point, and those whose nw is superior to media will get a score over 1 point.
3. The Family Tic NW Score is calculated by sumarizing ALL the individual nw scores of the fam. That means a fam with 12 ppol and 12 points at the end of tic is a 'media' fam cause every player has got a score equal to media. It will be a midtable ranked fam.
This was for nw smile
NOW FOR SIZE, easy as hell:
4. For size we do exactly the same as for nw, we get the 'tic media size' by sumarizing ALL the owned planets and dividing it by the number of players in the gal. Then we obtain the Individual Size Score by dividing individual size by media size.
Now the Family Tic Size Score is obtained by sumarizing ALL the individual size scores in the fam. The so called 'media fam' with 12 ppol will get also 12 points.
5. The INDIVIDUAL TIC SCORE is the Individual NW Score plus the Individual Size Score at the end of tic.
6. The FAMILY TIC SCORE is the Family Tic NW Score plus the Family Tic Size Score.
This way our 'media fam' of 12 ppol is getting a total of 24 points at the end of tic and will be ranked at midtable. Fams over 24 points a tic are doing ok and fams below 24 points a tic are doing bad.
Also, I thought about Inactives, no problem, with this method Inactives can be counted since it is based on 'media', only thing is with many Inactives decreasing the media, the big players will get more points in comparison to others, but well activity has to be awarded in some way.
In case this can be a problem solution is easy, just don't count players marked as 'Inactive' when doing all the calculations smile
I HOPE FOR GOD SHAKE YOU UNDERSTANT IT wink
