The Director Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 What percentage of these questions could you have answered without the internet? 0%... Because I need internet to be able to access this post... And therefor the questions... What is the correct algorithm of the Halo 3 ranking system? There are actually several. If someone has told you that there is only one, then they are mistaken. There are separate algorithms for nearly every gametype in Halo 3. Team Swat, Team Slayer, Lone Wolf, etc. There are also two separate types of rank as well, one has a very simple algorithm (1 win = 1 exp) and the other varies as stated previously. The algorithms for the second ranking system (i.e. 1-50) range from complex to rather simple. Why are we here? "It's one of life's great mysteries, isn't it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some... cosmic coincidence? Or is there really a God, watching everything, you know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don't know man, but it keeps me up at night." - Grif (or Griff according to Caboose) Or something like that. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Director Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Well duh xD umm... Who and what is Derpy I do not give out personal information. What is the 1-50 algorithm for Halo 3 MLG Playlist? If win then: (tslv+otsl)*(wp-tmsl)=SP SL+SP = CSL If loss then: (tslv+otsl)*(wp-tmsl)=-SP SL+-SP = CSL That means: SP = Skill Points, SL = Skill Level, CSL = Current Skill Level, wp = Win Percentage, osl = Opponent's truskill Level, tslv=truskill level, tmsl = team mate skill level. In Halo 3, your truskill level is based off of a 0.00 to 1.00 score that is determined from how good you are in the game. It's very similar to Halo Reach's BPR score, except with a decimal. That number is then added to your opponents truskill level (also 0.00 to 1.00). Then your win percentage is turned into an average (similar to k/d ratio) to eliminate "accidental wins". This number is then subtracted from your team mate's truskill level. The lower your team mate's truskill level, the higher the resulting number will be. This is why deranker boosting is effective. Anyways, you multiply the two numbers together to get the amount of Skill Points you earn from that match. As you can guess, that number is usually a decimal. If you lose, then the number becomes a negative. So here is how it would work. If your tsl is .5 and your opponent's is .4 and your teammates is .6 and your win percentage is 70% and your SL is 25 then: (.5+.4)*(.7-.6) = If win: 0.01 if loss: -0.01 0.01+25=25.01 -0.01+25=24.99 The number is not rounded up (the decimal numbers do not appear), so you would see a drop from 25 to 24 by losing that match. The max is 50, the min is 1 (as you already know). This is information that I have gleaned by the way that the ranking system in the MLG playlist seems to work. Bungie has not released the actual mathematical algorithm for their ranking systems, so we may never know if this is actually the algorithm or not.

The Director Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I think you might just be equal to or greater then god. Why does it seem like every Christmas is lossing more and more Christmas spirit? Because you are growing up. One day, Christmas will be only about buying people presents for you. Then you'll have kids and it will become stressful, oh so stressful. To Bacon? or not to Bacon? To Bacon. Also, an interesting little tid-bit, the original verse "To be, or not to be, that is the question. Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer the Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune, or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles, and by opposing end them: to die, to sleep no more; and by a sleep, to say we end the Heart-ache, and the thousand Natural shocks that Flesh is heir to?" is questioning whether it is truly wrong to commit suicide. Kind of odd that "To be, or not to be" became so famous when you think about it. Do you prefer summer sausage or honey ham? I prefer honey ham. I'm not a huge fan of sausage. Do you like Top Gear? Yes, but it's not my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, although my favorite interpretation of Hamlet is a tie between The 90's movie with Bill Murray as Polonius, and just this soliloquy read by William Shatner. Do you believe in ghosts?
