defend their title against the #2
: TBD
rules? BO? / KOTH? / demotion to #? / ... so much unsaid

qualifying games
working the same way as any games is counted for today? so bad watcher can spoil it?


P.S.
Also wondering why always spam this section when there (https://forum.war2.ru/index.php?board=18.0) is a more appropriate one. Maybe it would be worth starting to use it for its intended purpose?

what is TBD? prolly played the map but ive forgotten.

is this like june july august whole summer as i call the summer months here in the nortic circle. or only june?
i wont b playing much but occasionally yes. this is actually good. why not at least try? thats good that u dont delete old historic stats. this ladda has been on ages. it is golden history imo.

oh sorry  i read again. from june till august. too lazy to erase old text :]]

me and i think most of the others check out only this Server.War2.ru section. no1 uses rly other sections. me myself maybe post 1 post a year in the replay or tourney section. 99.89% time i just quickly look Server.War2.ru section. so no reason to post important topics elsewhere. other sections r kinda waste.


about ladder. maybe add DISC COUNT AS LOSS option? shouldnt b 2 hard to make technically. it would be fair. there is brassies n italianos for example who disc often. it is frustrating to search the game results and post it in the forums and admins fix the ladder stats if they bare do it. anyway im kinda used to find the game reports kinda quick due experiment :D





tip for ppl
http://ladder.war2.ru/reports/ (http://ladder.war2.ru/reports/)
there u can see all 1v1s played. just click some of ur latest games which if uve played from ladder.war2.ru site. then update the http://ladder.war2.ru/reports/ (http://ladder.war2.ru/reports/) site after hour. check out games played afterwards of the game u clicked earlier. there r ur newest played games. oldest games top, newest games bottom. use home and end buttons in kb to make it quicker :]

Title defenses work as programmed into the existing ladder.  I think it's a bo5.  Demotions are down to rank 10.

what is TBD? prolly played the map but ive forgotten.
Hah it's short for To Be Determined.  Map etc I'm listening for feedback.  I should be able to customize which games get recorded (not guaranteed, but I think so), however if I change from the standard to any custom settings, those will be the only games the ladder records during this season.  I think that's probably fine.

Looks like a lot of players are gone but heaps of inactive names remain, so no one can in theory climb the ladder. Needs to be wiped totally clean to work.

Don't worry, we are not erasing your wins/losses, or your game history.  You'll see it's all still in there. 

Yes though, I am seeing that some ranks were not fully reset or not reset properly.  We will work on that.

not counted by the ladder

I'm attempting to make this special Summer Ladder Season be gow free! 

the ladder should be counting BNE maps only, but not counting garden of war.   so i think it's correct it didn't count that game. right now i think gow BNE counts but we will remove that too in just a moment.

Looks like the ranks still aren't working quite like we want them.  We'll get it sorted out though... but just know if you're trying to get started on the season, that while games will be recorded, they won't get the rungs up and going yet.
Title: Re: ANNOUNCING: War2 Ladder Summer Season - Garden No More
Post by: WillTheRealKoorbStandUp on June 02, 2021, 02:43:10 PM
my suggestion is you gota make it more unique from normal ladder to make it interesting

i suggest every player can play every player in this league 3 or 5 times u don't have to complete all 5 games but premotes playin more

 the top 4players with most wins have play off with the same standard maybe 7 games each

this also premotes more active players the chance to win the league

there should be stats like the old league i made that you deleted the thread blid (back up stats this time)


i can help with stats just need a good reporting and fact keeping systen

so list for stats

Both players starting postion and strategy day 12, 2RAX RUSH, etc
what tier the game got to ( fort) etc other stat ideaz to be discussed


then at end i can work out what strategy won most. spot vs spot win ratios etc

this way also keeps communitu interested on other players outcomes
 and a deeper insight into match up imbalances
get jstin n others to cover league games etc

Koorb I think your idea is more in line with a league- also can be cool. This is just a “season” of the ladder, so it’s a lot like the regular ladder on purpose .

Title: Re: ANNOUNCING: War2 Ladder Summer Season - Garden No More
Post by: Certified MENSA Genius Brain (smart) on June 05, 2021, 10:23:14 AM
Yeah, so there's two things:
1) We're only currently counting non-GOW BNE/classic maps.
2) The rungs currently need fixing.  We need to make it so unranked players (which will be everyone) get slotted into the ladder after they play a game that counts.  iL said I'm more familiar with the ladder so asked me to do it, but the ftp login info he sent me didn't work, so he tried something and I still can't get in.  I apologize for the delay.  Not 100% certain but I do think I can fix it quickly once I get access.

Very sorry it's taking so long!  my initial assumption was that it would already rank people correctly, as long as their current ranks were null.  But I think instead the code adds unraked people to the ranks correctly when they play their first game, not when their rank is null, so I think I just need to add like "|| rank = null" to the new player section of the code... and then reset everyone back to null ranks again.

Dont waste ur time nobody cares about the ladder since you remove the best map of the entire game.

theyre counting for your record and getting logged, but as far as the ranking system goes, ill be resetting the ranks again once we have the ranking system working, so you wont get anything out of any games except a nice win on your record.

i still couldnt get in so im just gonna see if il can email me the files and i email back and then he can put in the changes i ask for...  :omg:

I know nothing about this but I'm going to attempt to sound like I do. If this is such an issue, is it possible to restart everything but put it on a different URL so the old one still works and now you have a new one with everyone at 0-0-0.

Who decided to start not including Garden of War.pud games on the ladder? At minimum this should have been left to a vote, for actual active players.

Was it you Blid, the guy who hasn't even played in like ten years?

WarCrafft II = Garden of War. It's a bad move on so many levels to exclude it from the ladder. Whether temporary or not.

Was definitely worth trying i think assuming it was a seamless transition, but i think its been a month now and ive seen people like Lux playing multiple non-gow bne maps, and current rankings show only 1 person in the top 20 has played a game in the last 4 years.

Yah obviously ive failed pretty hard here so far.  In fact I haven't even gotten to look at the code yet though.  iL gave me ftp information but my computer is from my work and they have some bullshit on it that blocks ftp.war2.ru.  iL also gave me a link to where he uploaded the ladder code but the link doesnt work?  he didn't write back when i asked if he could just email it to me.  i will try to get to another computer so i can finally get in through the ftp :X  it would be a pretty spectacular failure to try to do something fun and end up just breaking shit, which has been the case so far.

Post by: Certified MENSA Genius Brain (smart) on June 25, 2021, 07:50:17 AM
yeah im sure il could and it would also be easy to take out the one small anti-gow change we made.  heres the shameful thing though, i do have another computer so id like to take a look at this first, it's just that with all ive got going on in my life right now the inconvenience of digging it out has kept me from trying that yet.  let me make an effort to do so today and then we'll see where that gets us

UPDATE: i got out the other computer and got on the ftp and got a look at the files... i think i can figure out how to handle this next time i get some free time.  in fact i even had an idea to improve the method we were using for this contest.  we'll see.  ill keep following up.

UPDATE 2: Threw in a first attempt at a fix. I figure this won’t quite do the trick but we’ll see

UPDATE 3: looks like it's working i think!  just need to make the standings page stop showing all the unranked/rank 0 people, but:

i changed it so that GOW games still DO get recorded.  however you see all those people sitting at rank 0 despite playing... the GOW games are getting recorded into your game history, because i figured you all would still want that.  however the only players that actually got rankings were the ones playing gseps.  and the winner got rank 1 and the loser rank 2.  seems right...?  it's working maybe!

oh yeah it's workin alright... although this emoji version of garden of war TE seems to have sneaked through:

There 45k players and smurfs in this fake ladder, new players see that ladder and when they com on the server they see 15 players log on, what a shame, we just look like old delusional server with fake ladder lol.

Reset this things to zero, keep it clean and updated, make it look profesionnal!

Don't you worry my friend, that is just what we're doing.  i will get all the unranked people removed from the main standings page - they will only be on a backup page.  so the only people on the main standings will be the active ones.  AND i plan to do a new season after this one with a different map requirement, resetting the ladder and making everyone unranked again, and so on.  So the ladder will keep getting cleared out for every "season" but all the old records and players will be retained on back-up

bug report: ladder seems to be counting the right games and updating the ranks right, but records/streak/elo are getting reset to zero.  I have backed up all the standings now so that records won't be lost. actually although this is unintentional i think I like records starting over? You can still click to see full PvP records and I can still make total record display also I think. either way it needs a look from me tomorrow, there’s a bug there

Everything seem to work fine now!
Thanks!

That Would be great if you also can delete the game report in every profile players... When you click on a name in the ladder it bring you to the individual games reports player, but old games reports are still there. Wich is really confusing!

Would be cool to only have games reports from this season.

Also for future improvement if you guys got time and motivation.

Wg always talk about IGL, and there something really great about igl..

http://www.igl.net/war2/ (http://www.igl.net/war2/)

THey call this hall of fame but i think its more like a records pages.

It would be great if someone could build a script for a kind of record pages like that on the ladder.war2.ru website.

We could make different records..

More wins with orc, more wins with humans, winning streak, Highest elo, Most win on gow ef, most win on pos, most wins on b2b etc etc etc.

This kind of records will bring peoples to be more open on different maps and races without banning old gow from the ladder.

After a season we could also make a Random map tournament with every winner of every different reccords..

This records pages will bring alot of new things to the ladder, alot of motivation for new players and will open peoples to play different setting race and map.

I dont think it will be so hard since the ladder is also link and relate to the war2ru server game report.

Anyway thanks for the work you done here, its already a big big step!

Is the elo system broken or not resetted for everyone? Some guys have like 100 points vs others 1300 points. Shouldn't everyone start with a base elo like 1200 or something?

Yeah when players get added to the new seasonal scoreboard, most people are moved in with 0 score instead of the default 1300, while a select few are getting 1300. 
if only my primary computer didn't block ladder.war2.ru I would’ve fiddled with it much sooner :/  Makes it much harder to do work on this as much as I'd want to.  I just took a stab at correcting it

I’m actually the most busy I’ve been in my life, and I can’t do ladder stuff while at work cuz the site is blocked, but JesK pinged me at the exact moment when I had a few minutes at home by myself to take a look. Definitely not trolling you bro, you were one of the main people who suggested seasons in the first place right?

What page do you get that error on, Ive never seen it. Is it the main standings home page?

The proof that you are trolling is the fact that you keep trying to act like if you did nothing and you dont even know wich error i speak, if you do a normal search on the ladder for my name it bring you directly to that error.

LOL, it is definitely not a troll, look:
http://ladder.war2.ru/?player=blid&Search=Search (http://ladder.war2.ru/?player=blid&Search=Search)
 
Same thing happens on my name.  From what I can see doing some quick poking, this happens if you do a search for any player who is not yet on the seasonal ladder.  I noticed search works for every player I tested that is ranked on it, and gets that error for every player who is not.  So, clearly, nothing to do with trolling you.

I'll have to see if I can find a way to fix that, it would seem the issue is the search is finding a match, but the match isn't part of the table being pulled, hence an error.  I don't know when I'll work on it since as far as I can tell it's not very important.  But is this stopping you from participating in the ladder, or is that a separate issue?  I would think you play one game on a non-gow bne map, and get ranked, you can search for your name too.

Equinox can play in it.  He played Lux twice in non-gow maps, and was automatically added to the ladder by doing so.  it's counting players as it should.  Does look like i need to take another look at how elo is being added but otherwise it's all systems go

"64 points"-- Elo is meaningless except for fun. we're not ranking by elo.  but i already said i need to take another look at it.  Ill add the starting 1300 to your score manually and youll be fine.  meanwhile ill take another crack at fixing the issue when i get the chance.  i only have the opportunity to work on this once in awhile, and i put in some changes last time that i thought might handle this but i guess they didnt.  ill try again soon

Also, elo is expressly NOT how we are naming champions or ranking players, it's just a column at the end of the standings for people's enjoyment, but I'm glad you like it.

You shouldn't abuse people who are trying to contribute, because that makes it no fun to contribute.  You were added to the ladder as soon as you played a non-GOW game, which is how it works.  Same with Ripe.  I already fixed your elo score.  It's all good. 

Work is incremental.  I'm very busy and can't access the site on my regular computer, but we're making progress.  All the games get counted and players get ranked fine.  Your elo also will be fine from here.  The ladder and the season are pretty much in good working condition, and i should know how to easily reset the ladder and put in new restrictions for future seasons, which will be fun.  Winners at the end can be added to the champions page, it'll be cool.

Now I'm not a programmer, and never have done any coding outside of this project, but i learned a little and built this just for this community.  I thought I found the issue with the elo and corrected it but apparently not.  Again, this is not my trade and im not a pro at this, but I will try again.  Please try to have some patience and some manners.

Comming from someone who start a server 3 months ago.... It would sound good, but comming from someone whos is admins here since the last 15 years..... It just proof how all those admins and staff are irrelevant.

When the server cant fix properly the ladder that we have for the last 15 years, it just show how lazy and useless you guys have been..

The fuck are you kidding me ELO is the most important ranking, no thanks im not gonna support lazy trash working.

Elo is a shit ranking system and has been since the advent of modern online games.  It's designed for a completely different environment in an age where the internet didnt even exist let alone online games (1940s).  ELO is easily saturated/exploited by "grinding" points from lower ranked players which is backwards to how one should gain rank.  A ladder rating system is a far better ranking system for CURRENT players in an online environment.  ELO is nothing more than a fun aspect of modern gaming systems that suffer from the "grinding" problem.  When you're playing a game in-person that can take hours or even days to complete, ELO becomes much more accurate.  But when you're playing an online game that can end in 5 minutes,  it's completely worthless.  The original BNET SC/War2 ladders proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt in very painful ways.  The Champions of the BNE ladder were mostly no-name 24x7 point grinders with the exception of the first few ladder seasons.

Ladder systems reward those who actually beat higher ranked players.  Elo rewards those who have the most time to waste.  Modern games use ELO not because it's a good system,  but because its GOOD FOR BUSINESS.  What better way to make money than to encourage people to play your shit game 24x7 to grind points,  especially if it's a subscription based game (such as WoW).  It also helps the game become more popular as it keeps players online for as long as possible which can artificially increase a game's perceived "popularity".  The more people online,  the more likely you're going to stay online as well.  The fewer people there are to play with,  the more likely you are to log off also.  So dont confuse ELO with superiority when it comes to Ranking players vs a Ladder ranking system.  It's simply a pointless argument.

Im not gonna even read that because the first line you write is total lie.... Elo is a bad system into teams games, true, but elo is the most accurate and the best system ever to rate 1v1.

You just cant trick and cheat elo in 1v1, elo is base on ur personal performance, you can play whatever trash you want and try to abbuse it, but you will never reach best players if you dont play them and dont beat them.

Pay VERY close attention to how much emphasis it places on TIME rather than RANK OF PLAYERS YOU PLAY.

Nox,  ELO is not for online games.  It's a BUSINESS decision to attract players under the guise that it's actually ranking people when it really isnt.  All it does is reward those who have the most time to waste.  Thats why there are literally 100s of guides online on how to "grind" elo points for just about every game you can think of that uses ELO as a ranking system.  You wont find such a guide for a Ladder system because its NOT POSSIBLE to "grind" up a ladder without playing players above you.  Its mathematically not possible where as it's VERY possible with ELO which is why there are "howtos" on how to do just that.  Cheat the system.

Nox, you're not understanding the TIME issue.  Did you know that chess is a game that can take hrs, days, even weeks?  You cant "grind" chess wins in a chess league due to the time factor UNLESS the league implements speed rounds which is perfect for grinding ELO.  The standard time limit for a Chess game is generally 60 to 90 minutes.  The avg game time for an online 1v1 game like War2 is 5-15 minutes.  Your also not understanding that its POSSIBLE to grind out ELO points.  And if it's possible,  it WILL be done which is why guides exist to show how to grind ELO points for ANY game you want to mention.  Thats just how things work.

it's like this... you can beat up weaker players and never play anyone better than you, and this will still keep boosting your ELO.  You just have to keep playing a bunch.  On the other hand you can't climb a rungs-based ladder without beating people ranked above you.

Now, i will say, since literally every 1v1 game is recorded on our ladder and nobody cares about maximizing elo (and doesn't care much about rung rankings either) we don't really have the problem of dodging, so elo ends up looking pretty good as a measure of skill.

There a point where abusing of weaker players dosent work anymore, maybe an abuser dont play better then him, but the weaks players that he play would play against better player then him, wich allow better players to get over the abuser... If you wanna gain more points in a ELO systeme then you got to play better then you, if you only play weak peoples with poor elo then you gotta keep winning 3 points per games instead of 32.

You cant abbuse 1v1 elo ladder.

Maybe in begginning of season, but there always a time where elo gonna fix himself and gonna start to give more or less points for a win.

So keeping playing newbe with poor elo will not do anything.

You just proved my point for me.  This is called "GRINDING".  Look up the word,  I know english isnt your first language but the word "Grinding" means doing something repetitively in order to SLOWLY gain something.  IE:  Win 3 points instead of 32.   You just proved that the ELO system CAN be abused......... 3 points at a time (although thats not really correct, but its good enough to show you that you're wrong).  It doesnt matter if it's 3 points 300 points or 0.0000001 points.  The problem is that it's a number GREATER than 0.  Since that's the case,  people can and WILL abuse it by simply playing 1000s upon 1000s of games.  In a rung ladder system,  the ONLY way to climb is to play someone ABOVE you.  In otherwords,  the number is ZERO chance of "grinding" anything in order to cheat/abuse the ladder.

Well, this is the first season of a new project, and the new season model is basically fully functional and working.  Im very busy in my personal life and have limited access as well, as ive already said, so you will just have to bear with us with the small bugs.  That's just the facts and they aren't changing.

Just put the ladder back to how it was, this new "model" hasn't made anyone play more often. Then you wont have to tell us about your busy personal life etc.

gow games still are recorded, they just don't impact ranking

You know I have stayed out this thread up to this point but I think I do need to side with EQ.
This whole ladder redone has been a random zoo for weeks.

I get the premises  unfortunately aside u8 nobody plays anything other than Gow and have little interest to.
I think it is better to just put the ladder back to the way it was before all these changes came about but that’s my opinion.

i think the gow/ef community was what was the last bit of glue holding this community together.

i think creating this ladder had unintended consequences.

since it's implementation, i have not seen any of the "top 10" aggressively battling for rank.

i personally dont even look at the ladder any more.

not something i would have predicted.. but it appears to be what has happened.
Title: Re: ANNOUNCING: War2 Ladder Summer Season - Garden No More
Post by: Certified MENSA Genius Brain (smart) on August 26, 2021, 12:49:16 PM
Hmm I don't think anyone has "battled for rank" on the ladder in years.  When top players do a 1v1 series I don't think it's been because of the ladder for a long long time.  People liked having it so they could track their game histories but that's the only thing I think most anyone was using it for.  Am I terribly wrong?  If anything this should have increased interest in ranks because now there is actually an "end" to the ladder and someone will be declared a winner.  Normally there's never anything like that so there's even less point.

I'll switch GOW back on for a one-month September season.  Maybe that will be a better introduction to the "season" and "champion" format we're trying here since as I well know GOW is mostly the only thing anyone cares about.  But that takes away the intentionality of playing these games and of it being a ladder-- then players kind of just get autoranked from playing normally.  That's fine I guess but then it's not really of interest that much, imo, so in October I would roll back out a Halloween themed season with no GOW.

That's my current plans anyway, unless we get a flood of people saying they actually care about rankings on the old format.

I like the idea and it looks like there’s a lot of activity on the ladder for maps other than GOW.  The season concept seems better than doing nothing.

Maybe throw some money at the season winner Tora?  Top 3 or something.

Flood in war2 speak just means a handful of people haha. But there's been a few people expressing some support too, so i'm not hearing a clear consensus to dump the project.  like i said, though, i will enable GOW for the September season which i think will satisfy a lot of people.  Then we'll go from there.

I think your ladder idea has been a complete failure. You're clutching at straws that there are people who agree with you. There might be 2 or 3. Seasons was a good idea but you need to include Garden of War. The only reason other maps have been playing was because of Duda's league. Nothing to do with the ladder. Change it back to how it was or run seasons with GOW in it.

with little fixes it works fine. and it was and it is a good idea. we have played gow enough. lets lets the real skills.

u can always play that ur gow and i do too sometimes. it just doesnt couunt in ladder. i dont rly feel that it is even wrong cuz old gow is unfair map with the 6-8 thing.

swift vs u8. every time each of them has s9 or 6 loses. it messes up the real series. the real statistics.

You answered your own question, most classic maps. No one plays the ladder maps and not all classic maps were remade there. Most people play Gseps which is very imbalanced in itself not to mention extremely repetitive. Without GOW as the staple map this game died 10 years ago and that's a fact.

Go read other forums and watch videos on youtube, since 2021 everyone complaint about moddler and peoples who try to play with code sources..

It's actually the most discuss topic on blizzard and alot of compagny at the moment, i could give you tons of forum threads and tons of videos on youtube where everyone complaint about it.

Blizzard are fighting moddlers like you everyday and find solution for those things to not happen anymore.

You are a little troll who have hacked this games for years, a little troll who have get ban from twitch, a little troll who have destroy this game by influence everyone to take bad decisions and now this server is barely reaching 30 players.

Server have never been so bad since my departure on the server and thats exactly why i left, so you all can see it by ur own eyes.

Why do you think blizzard get rid of all those games they have made around 1995 and 2000, cuz peoples like you where trying to moddling it and they were also using corrupted ports to hacks peoples, not only they get rid of it but they remaster it so peoples can enjoy new safe version without peoples like you.

You are a troll, a hacker, a liar, a manipulator and you dont deserve to be part of this community anymore by ur selfish and useless behavior.

I got every games of blizzard and activision and never have been ban from anywhere.

But i can assure you if you try to do what you do here on warcraft II it would take 1 months and you will get ban like twitch did to you cuz ur a coward cheater!

Being a cheater is part of you, cheat the game, cheat the twitch, cheat admins mentality weakness, and not only you are a cheater but you also think peoples are stupid cuz they dont have any interess in cheating the game.

Thats the truth!

When I came back 10ish years ago I was forced to play GOWF because nobody played anything else. Before that I NEVER played GOW and hated it because that is all anyone used to play back on BNET. At that point, there were a lot more people playing on RU. So, I don't think the lack of diversified maps has anything to do with it.

As SG basically said, people are getting old, the game is old, and younger people don't want to play this given the other choices out there. We can give it the ole college try in an attempt to revive it but let's face it, it is what it is. Enjoy it while you can.

that would be great! a fresh ladder with gow included would very good. i don't think old ladder stats still matter as long as the history is still there.
