At this moment in time there are very few features available (to me or in general) to check for double squadding. If i can get myth to let me have a "search on player/IP" then it will be simple. I also have no idea how myth has dealt with players signing up to squads. As of this moment in time, the only way to check for double squadders is too manually view each roster. This is almost impossible not to mention tedious.

Theoretically once a player is signed to a squad, then he/she shouldn't be able to sign to another, and maybe some kind of time period should be implementated. So that a player who quits Paladen, can't immediatley go and stick his name on Cripples roster.

I also don;t know how "vets" who create a fake aliased squad can be spotted straight away. Im making the presumption that each "vet" is under a differnt alias. Meaning we need another form of identification. Such as IP, however this isnt solid, as a vast percentage of the TW population work off a dynamic IP from their ISP.

We do have the tools to check doublesquadders (IP and other information of each player is being logged), but it isn't made available to you yet

So...how does the system work now? Does K change or what? Also, in the probability equation, is the 400 that the difference_in_ratings is divided by a constant?

[Mythrandir]

at this moment K doesn't change, keeps 50 all the time.
During this season, I might change the rating formula if it doesn't work as wished


and the '400' indeed is a constant.
