    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do I become rated? Simply post, to this thread, the highest level of victory that you ever attained, (Chieftain, Warlord, Prince, King, Emperor, or Deity), in a "single player" game of Call to Power, along with the Nation and Territory that you presently reside. That's it! You'll see your name appear on the above list within a week.
    How do the ratings change? See the below CTP Ratings Links section for an in depth discussion.
    On whose turn should the Power Graph be reported? It doesn't matter because the Power Graph remains the same during the cycle of the turn. However, we recommend that the 1st player (blue) always report the Power Graph results.

    -----------------
    TENPL639_AM Report Legend:

    NAT.TR - Nation and Territory of Primary Residence.

    PBEM RATING - Starts with an initial value depending upon the highest CtP AI level ever honestly defeated: Chieftain=14; Warlord=16; Prince=17; King=18; Emperor=19; Deity=21. This rating changes by winning or losing to other rated players, (at the *9 turn mark every ten turns), while playing "rated" PBEM games. See the CtP Multiplayer topic "PBEM Ladders" for details on how this rating change is calculated.

    -------------------
    TEN619_AM Report Concepts:

    Win/Loss - A Win counts by having a "higher" Power Graph rating at the ten turn mark during a "rated" game. For example, in a five player game, at the ten turn mark, each player will receive four results - 4 wins and 0 losses, or 3 wins and 1 loss, etc.

    Delinquency - 24 or more hours late counts as a delinquency. Each delinquency deducts -0.1 ratings points from player's rating.

    Inactivity Adjustment - Players will lose 5/100ths of a ratings point (-0.05) for each month they go without a ratings adjustment, (i.e. remain inactive in the ratings for an entire month).
    -----------------
    Elimination Rule

    If, in a rated game, a player:
    a) resigns;
    b) changes status from "rated" to "unrated";
    c) gets annihilated; or
    d) gets "next turned" for three turns in a row,

    then every remaining player in that game "DEFEATS" THAT PLAYER THREE TIMES (as measured by the normal ten turn phase defeat).

    For example, in a 5 player game, the first person who gets "eliminated from the ratings in that game" would be "defeated" 12 times (as measured by the normal power graph 10 turn defeat), (3 multiplied by 4 remaining players.) This equates to an average decrease in ratings of about 2 to 3 points for the eliminated player. The second player eliminated would be defeated 9 times (3 multiplied by 3 remaining players), ... etc.

    In the case of resignation or three consecutive "next turns", then that resigned player's civilization will be "next turned" until a replacement player, (either rated or unrated), takes over that civilization's control.
    -----------------
    Alien Life Victory Rule

    If a player wins by completing the Alien Project, then that player defeats every remaining player three times.
    -----------------
    Rating Change Table: - (example +2 to -2)

    DIFFERENCE.. RATING
    IN RATINGS.. CHANGE (+ for winner, - for loser)
    +2.0 ........ 0.083
    +1.5 ........ 0.118
    +1.0 ........ 0.167
    +0.5 ........ 0.222
    =0.0 ........ 0.250
    -0.5 ........ 0.278
    -1.0 ........ 0.333
    -1.5 ........ 0.382
    -2.0 ........ 0.417


    *** NOTICE TO ALL GAME STARTERS IN RATED GAMES ***

    Please post all of your turn *9 power graph results to the latest CTP Ratings thread (this thread). (I don't look at all of the game threads in progress.)

    Also, a reminder that all APPLICATIONS FOR NEW RATED GAMES need to be posted here with:
    1. Official game name;
    2. Player list (in turn order) of all players' APOLYTON HANDLES (no nick names please). Place players that wish to be "unrated" in parentheses;
    3. All desired rated players must have a current rating -- (please state their initial rating if they do not have a current rating).
    4. The current turn number;
    5. The turn number you want the game to become "rated".

            Blackice, you will receive substantial penalties for changing status from rated to unrated in the rated games in which you are participating. We can make the adjustment and then remove your name from the list as we did Aaginor, if you like.

              Why? You are one of the highest rated players.

                Hey Quinns, did you update the Ratings chart? I need all the wins that I can get. I have the maximum number of losses, and my rating reflects it.

                    Blackice, do you want to share with us why you want to be removed? As Keygen mentioned you are one of the highest ranked players and I am very curious about the reasoning behind it.

                    I sure hope you will continue playing?

                        Yes, Birdman. I uploaded the new results to my web host, but they have an old version of the files for some reason. They won't respond (pitiful web host). I'm switching to Addr.com web hosting now. I'm transferring my domain name to them soon. In the mean time, I'm pointing directly to the new site now, so try it at 16:00 GMT today. It should be alright.

                          Quinns, your proposal sounds good but new people like to see their names in the ranking from the start. Perhaps you should add them at the end of the ranking (including their rating) untill they have played the number of turns you propose after which they get their rightfull place in the ranking?

                            Or more easily - put them where they belong (as you do now)!

                            But give them an * ín front of their rating, showing that this position is only "theoretic" until their first official rating.

                            Personal I have no trouble diving down to xxx-position as long as I know some of the players above are wannabees. And that we all know about this.

                            But surely I can see the difference, when the weekly list are made official at Apolytons. Then I would suggest "something different". I do not know what excactly but:

                            If you should consider any possible situation - games/wins/losses, then fx. Klair should have a kind of deduction (do not know the right term) but she is only playing in one game - and (among others) King Thor should have some positive regulations due to his many rated games. As it is now, if you are in only one game and in that game is a (safe) lead - then you cannot be kicked from the CTP-thrown.

                            And Blackice, keep your position here. I do understand you. BUT I have also taken some -points in DC, which I (still) do not think I deserve (turn 119 and a misreported position in turn 139).

                            But I can live with this and so can you - you are a very good player, I know it from the moves you do when you are subbing me!

                              I think it would be better to start a new topic where to post every weak point of the ratings. There have past at list 6 months from the beginning of the rating system. We have the experience to post some safe results for they way the ranking work after a long period of evaluation. There are many things to discuss in my oppinion. Either Solver or Quinns should post the new topic.
