Post subject: Sad with the new casino's rules Reply with quote

I dont like the new rules for casinos, of bet half points only.
Since the player owns the account, I think HE must decides how many points he can bet.
Especially in my case, when I have about 10 accounts with 15k, losing all points in one or two of them is any probrem.
I suggest the end of this rule.

Post subject: Please bare in mind KRESO'S rating system Reply with quote

Quote:
Rating

When a player account is created, it starts with 1000 points. The players lose or receive points depending on outcome of the rated games they play.

Each player contributes a certain percentage of points, depending on his rank at the game end.

The following table contains contributing percentages:
rank
Number of players
at game start (plrCnt) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
2 0 16
3 0 13 20
4 0 11 17 24
5 0 10 16 22 28
For a given number of players and rank, a value from this table will be reffered to as Contr[plrCnt][rank].

A player receives points from other players with lower rank, and gives points to players with higher rank.

Let Xpoints be points of a player X at game start, and his final rank be Xrank.
Points of player X will be reduced by:

loss = Xpoints * Contr[plrCnt][Xrank] / 100 (rounded down)

For each player J who has worst rank than player X (Jrank>Xrank), player X receives:

gain = Jpoints * Contr[plrCnt][Jrank] / (Jrank-1) / 100 (rounded down)

where:
Jpoints - points of player J at game start
Jrank - rank of player J at game end

In any game, this system is made such that sum of all losses is equal to sum of all gains.

Additionally, a player receives 100 bonus points if he was playing the game for more than 10 minutes.

I strongly believe that we should NEVER forget Kreso's ranking system. Nor do I believe we should deviate miles away from HIS game plan.

The reason for the new restrictions is in part the number of users who were gambling away whole accounts. This goes against the grain of the ranking system kreso created. Whilst I believe we have to attempt to take GM forward in his absence. I do not believe we should forget, nor ignore the game format that he created.

I personally believe the new restrictions will bring order back to the unrated games.

I do know that the players who were getting used to staking whole accounts, and winning or losing large amounts of points at times will probably not take to kindly to these changes.

If I was used to it, and enjoyed it I would feel quite angry at the change also. But I think we should also bare in mind that perhaps it never should of been opened without these restrictions in place. That way nobody would of been angry at the change.

Also there is the issue of admin and making the point changes without causing dc's on the main game. I just caused a mini dc a few mins ago whilst trying to check past games on 1 account. Sometimes there seems no problems, then other times admin appears to cause dc's on certain tasks. So it is also in part in order to reduce the number of unrated games for points that we have to check. Although we will continue to keep an eye on this. This is not the main reason for the change.

I agree trace.

I think we should not stray too far from the original game. We don't want to completely change the way that players get better and work their way up in the rankings. Bezma helped me to see that.

Plus, the casino is still around. We didn't get rid of it or anything, so people can still have fun with the idea without taking it too far.

Moderation is golden.

No it simply shows just how point hungry some players are. I mean half of an accounts points being able to be betted is a hell of a lot more than standard games. If players are only interested in staking a whole account, I think this simply shows what class of players we have here Rolling Eyes

Post subject: the rule stands Reply with quote

this has been discussed at length and looked into. and for several reasons the rule will stay in place. If there is a large disagreement with it then we will have to look at stopping the casino game all together.
