I know how the Danisen battle ranking system works, but I am unsure how places run their battle to begin with. It is a tournament style elimination where you just log wins/losses? Or do people play on one cabinet the whole time until they get kicked off and take stats from there?
From the looks of it, maybe round robin seems more appropriate for Danisen Battles (as long as they are in range of their Dan).
SSF4 players in Alaska are looking forward to some kind of Online league since we’re all lazy and don’t wanna gather in one place to play. Figure Danisen Battles were the way to go.
I understand that part, but when does it apply? Do you have a certain time of play that Danisen Battle points are counted? For example, at an Arcade, Danisen Battle points can only be logged in from between 8pm-10pm. Something like that?
With concerns to online, I was thinking of a system for our battles 2 times a week, and each player has 10 matches (each 2/3 rounds), and is randomly paired with players until each player has played their 10. Every match is reported back to me and I log in the stats.
In that case, that player would be required either to:
Wait until someone reaches +1 or -1 of their Dan OR
Play a new character (since that character will start at 1st Dan)
So just run a regular Double Elimination tournament and record wins/losses? That means some players will only get to play a few times, and people who don’t make 1st place are guaranteed to get -2pts. Also, what if players in Semis get paired up with people who are nowhere near their Dan?
no. each setup is dedicated to a rank or maybe a number of ranks. And on that setup people just play a regular winner stays rotation. Get 3 points you move up a rank, get -3 you move down.
