We have talked about using NETFOOS to try to establish some sort of points system for WI players, and whenever the subject of points is talked about it's usually met with nothing but negativity... however with that in mind I picked up where Adam/Myles have left off and have entered in as many tournaments as I can get my hands on to try to give us some sort of base to begin ranking Wisconsin Foosers differently than the national rankings, which are currently IFP.
These are called the UNOFFICIAL points because at this time the WIFOOS committee has not yet got together and met to further discuss this, it was a project I picked up on to help better seed the 2013 Spring Bash tournament for our Open Singles and Open Doubles events.
It is our hope that over the course of 2013 we can meet as a group and try to further nail this down, but let's be real - it will never be 100% accurate and will never please everyone.
The more tournaments I can get brackets from over the past couple years, the more accurate we can try to make these rankings.
The points are calculated using your IFP points as a base, and then the ELO system is implemented based on the tournaments in the system. At this point I'm not sure how accurate it all is, but it's better than having nothing, and I feel that it helped greatly when running the 2013 Spring Bash.
Please see this thread for the latest points, we hope to have it updated as we continue to have WIFOOS sanctioned events.
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2055All discussions, complaints, and feedback can be housed in this thread, your input is very much appreciated.
Please remember that as far as the first posting is concerned, it's based off of the tournaments that I could get my hands on. Just because results are posted somewhere doesn't mean that's enough data for me to add to the system, I need to see the full finished bracket.
Please contact me asap if you have bracket details for a tournament that isn't listed.
