Nah, PMs would work, just be open and receptive to matches. As always, the more ways to contact someone the better.

[adsman]

I tried to set up an AIM account for CHUMP but it didn't work cause I live in Europe, but if we can do it with PM's then I'm in.

In keeping with the spirit of the college football such and such, me and Kurt decided ELO was a no go. The way we're going to do it is much simpler and is easily updatable. I'll explain

Everyone is input into a spreadsheet in EXCEL. Column A is your name, B is your wins, C is your losses, and D is your win percentage. Column E is where it gets fresh. Column E, for those of you who use excel, would look something like '=average(d3,d7,d6)' That would give you the average win percentages of the players in D3, D7, and D6. Your opponents. Then column F would be '=average(e3,e7,e6)' That gives you your opponent's opponent's win %. Those are then all averaged together with '=average(d1,d1,d1,d1,e1,e1,f1)', meaning your rating is based on 4 times your win %, 2 times your strength of schedule, and 1 times your opponent's strength of schedule.

It sounds ridiculous, but it is 1) incredibly easy to maintain, and 2) very accurate. During last year's college football season I used the same spreadsheet and found it to be frighteningly correct. It takes a few games to converge, but that's life.

Edit : Anyone (let's face it, just Eeegah) who wants to do ELO ratings can, and we'll find a way to work them in, but the basis for this is going to be the ranking system.

Actually, you know what? Anything that keeps Eeegah's clothes on is just fine by me. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I have to think more about if I want to do this, but this is just to note that the start of this doesn't mean you last few CHUMP stragglers don't have to finish....

I WANT MY WINNINGS!!!!

I'm on vacation and happily almost completely poker free at the moment, but as per my last post in the CHUMP thread I can probably make time for a match. Drop me a PM with your availability. I should be even easier to defeat than usual given my squishy pokerless brain and lack of anything resembling motivation. As if you needed easier.
