Basing rating changes

[afghan]

Here's a thread to discuss basing changes based on last season. I feel like there was a decent bit of rating inflation with the 0.5 system so a lot of my suggestions are based on that rather than saying that someone is bad (just so that people don't get mad at me saying they should be 0.5 lower).

I don't think there should be any huge changes season to season unless completely broken and need to account for prior success as well.

I won't pretend to know anything about wb/jav. I don't think you have to be a 10 star to be able to evaluate talent.


MOVE UP
Autopilot 8 -> 8.5 (hesitate to go up further after just one season)
Dutch baser 7.5 -> 8
Groan 6 -> 7
Celly 6.5 -> 7
Kings 7 -> 7.5
Bacon 8.5 -> 9

Borderline up:
Sprackle 8.5 -> 9
Creature 8 -> 8.5
Diakka 9 -> 9.5
Terminator 17.5 7 -> 7.5


MOVE DOWN
Jack 8.5 -> 8
Public assassin 8 -> 7.5 (consistent player that seems to be on par with the other 7.5's)
Henry saari 8.5 -> 8
Tripin 8 -> 7.5 (good if he wants to be but would still take multiple 7.5 over him)
Lionheart 8.5 -> 8
Raples 8 -> 7.5 (same as tripin)

Borderline down:
Vehicle 8 -> 7.5
Renzi 10 -> 9.5 (clearly an amazing spider like any 9.5 or 10; would maybe better fit with the 9.5 group with solace/hk/kess/mouse)
Zapata 7.5 -> 7

Kings could be an 8, could be better than MC/Aprix who are 8.

[renzi]

Would agree with my rating, even at 9. I’ve never done anything special or have amazing stats/titles/twl history to justify being 10. I would say a few of the 9.5’s are much better than me in most games (Solace, kess, Mouse)

I agree with a lot of those ratings. Just a couple I want to comment on:
agreed on autopilot, I could even see him jump up to a 9. Consistently considered overachieving for his current rating, I dont know if .5 is enough, but a full 1.0 jump could be too much
kings -> 8. I watched a lot of his playoff games, and I think 7.5 still underrates him. Without many other low * terrs in the market, kings is a high value pick
bacon -> 9. The more I twd with him, the more confident I am.
I'd err on the low side for sprackle. Theres been a creep up lately for shark ratings, and I already tend to be very critical of my fellow sharkies.
A lot of the move downs are probably excusable, since these are people who dont usually get to play at their current ratings. 12 teams might fix that though.
Renzi -> 9.5 for sure. Fits in well with that group he mentioned.
Zapata, no change. I sharked with the dude most of the season, and while there is a lot of room for improvement, he just hasnt had the opportunity to shine yet. I dont want to bump someone down just for them to jump back up after an extra successful season.


Thank you for your suggestions, I think all of these players are worth a review.

Is there a raise in the cap star limit per game? seems like everyone is getting a raise in star but the inflation doesn't follow or vice versa. What the hell? same goes for wb and jav btw...

[Nipple Nibbler]

I agree with a big portion of what has been said already, here is my 2 cents worth.

Autopilot 8.5, maybe even 9. He did really well for first season competing in TW, and I have a feeling he can do better with experience.
Dutch baser, 8 no idea how he snuck in last DT at such a low rating.
Kings, 7.5 maybe 8.
heaven, 9 Been playing well these days.
celly, 7 he is unrusting.
diakka, as a spider 9.5
terminator, 7.5
mvp, as a spider 8, as a shark 7.5
blt, 8, he might be higher but, I don't feel like we need to rush it.
creature, 8.5
apt, 8
aggi, 8

henry and lionheart, down to 8. Everytime I play with either of these two I want to punch my screen they camp so much.
renzi down to 9.5, good spider, not quite on par with the other 10* though, close.

zapata and vys are fine where they are.

My base rating? Honestly I don't care. I am probably somewhere between 8/8.5/9 depending on the ship and activity in said ship.

The rest that were mentioned I either have no opinion on, or didn't get to see them play much.
