shif6 Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 What methods are used to classify players in instant tournaments as A,B, or C? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 We order the players by points (BBO points for BBO tourneys, the greater of ACBL or BBO points for ACBL tourneys). The top 5 are A, the next 5 are B, the lowest 5 are C. For the players that come from the original play of the tourney, we use their points from the month that they originally played. The new player's current points are used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacto123 Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 What do you mean by "the original play of the tourney" ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 When you play an Instant Robot Tournament, we find an old Robot Duplicate Tournament, and select 14 other players from that tournemant randomly. You then play the boards from that tournament, and we calculate your matchpoints or IMPs by comparing your score with those 14 original players.
