How do points work?
Has anyone worked out how points are awarded and penalized in this game? I can't make sense of it!
I thought higher players were rewarded less for winning against lower players, and lower players were penalized less for losing against higher players - this is not the case. I'll beat guys an entire tier higher than me and get 9-11 points, while losing to guys a tier higher and losing 12-14 points, what gives? Does giving up make you lose more points? Does it matter? Does anyone have the hard math on this? |

A 1000 point Master Leaguer should be more skilled than a 300 point Master Leaguer (assuming similar time played). Unfortunately everyone plays outwitters at different rates, some playing a ton of games at once and others finishing a game once a week (or even slower). Ultimately this means that contrary to the stated goal, points don't tell you anything about relative skill within a league because there is no indication of how much players have played since the point system change. I thought the old system was better where a good player was still able to make it to the top from skill even if s/he didn't play as much as a worse but extremely active player. Oh well... If you're in the top 200 it shouldn't matter anyway because you have the true skill leaderboards once a week, but if you are not in the top 200 you really have no way to gauge your progress in league (unless you are mostly play people in the league above or below). ![]() |
