Had some nightshifts with nothing to do, so I decided to download ELO-software (link for download) and input all RAGL S02 (+qualifier matches), RAGL S03 (+qualifier matches) and DoomHammers 1v1 Tournament games. Alltogether ~500 games!
Note: I've only added games that where posted in black font (played games). I decided not to use scores of players that have forfeited the season or dropped out because of strikes. Simply because SoScared edited out those scores, I think. Also didnt input scores that have been won because of failed contact and thus have not really been played.
A little introduction: the ratingsystem that is used is the USCF system, used for the American Chess league. Here's a PDF with an elobarate explanation. Alot can be said about the reliability of ratings and which system to use, but I decided to use the USCF-system because the software was userfriendly and in general I think it can be used for Red Alert 1v1's just as well as for chess. As for a proper show of skill: the more games that are entered into the system, the more accurate it becomes... more or less.
I will keep updating the ratings!
Whenever there is a serious 1v1 event/tournament I will enter all played games. Also you can have your casual Online Multiplayer (1v1) games entered into this ratinglist. If you haved played a game against a player and the both of you decide it to be a rated game, then both of you comment "Rated game" in the first 30 seconds of the game and upload the game to Gamereplays.org. Also post the result to this topic as a comment. If you do all this then I will enter the game. Please note: a maximum of 3 consecutive games per person is allowed. Wait before at least one new game is entered before you can again submit rated games.
The list as is on 22th of July 2017
Initial playerrating 1300.

I think the asterisk [*] next to a name means that it's still a provisional rating (played less than 25 games) and that means the rating is more volatile than those who have a more established rating - not sure though!
So if you want to enter a rated game (with a maximum of 3 consecutive games) to the list:
- decide together with your opponent before the game that the game is rated
- both players have to comment "Rated game" in the first 30 seconds
- upload your game to gamereplays.org
- comment the result in this thread
PS: if you want to see the file with all games, download the list here. You will have to install Elorater through the provided link above and then manually place it in the folder. Please note that once a game is entered it cannot be deleted! (you'll have to replace the .elo file)
