Need some clarification on this rating stuff

Postby Mad`Mozart » 24 Mar 2013, 17:14

Noticed some weird stuff happening.
Sometimes when playing consequent games rating points seem to disappear. Usually they are both wins and system message says "rating goes from X to Y". The thing is, those X and Y are always the same. Its like, last game stats were re-recorded with previous one's or some other kind of poltergeist. Restarting FAF doesnt help, rating still stays the same as it was before (Y)

So the question is: is it a bug? Or working as intended? (or i suck at understanding this trueskill system...)
And if this is not a bug, why does it always count from the same starting amount? e.g. if it was to give me 0 points, shouldn't it go from 1809 to 1809 but not from 1806 to 1809 again?

This is working as I want it to work, but this can be considered as a bug : viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3319

It's so trivial that I won't spend time to fix it.

Ok, sorry for making new thread on the same topic but i did not see that one.

At least good to know how it happens and how to avoid it, but its really annoying.

It's statistically irrelevant, and the fix is not trivial at all.
