Just curious how the ranking system is formulated. I have a team 1 that's 7/2/3 with 153.02 ranking. Another team 2 that's 6/2/6 with 155.19? This makes no sense to me. I'm assuming td's and casualties affect this, however the first team 1, 26-19 (td) with +1 cas, second team 2, 27-25 (td) with -13 cas?? What else affects the ranking? Games played? What if team 1 loses 2 more games, 7/2/5, still a better record than team 2 yet the ranking would drop from 153.02?? Can anyone make sense of this please.

THANKS!

You can take a look at the ranking formula in the FAQ under Reference or click the link Very Happy .

If you want a summary rather than the spiffy 3d chart, it's based upon the relative rankings and strengths of the teams you won and lost to.

For teams which are ranked, 2. For teams that opted out of ranking (or stunty league, right?) it's 0.

Christer could alter those values if he wanted your Open games to count as 3 points while divX was 2 and Stunty was 1 point, for example. Then people's ranking would mostly reflect their Open record, but be slightly influenced by divX and stunty.

yer you beat higher ranked teams or coaches then you get more ranking points if you beat lower ranked teams or coaches, likewise you lose more points if you lose to a lower ranked team or coach
