THE CONSTITUTION

Rules

1. Match result

The player winning the most games wins the match. Results are entered as the number of games won by each player, for example 2–1. Draws are not accepted by the bureaucracy because somebody must eventually take responsibility.

2. Participation

Each player receives 0.5 participation points for every completed match, regardless of the result. It rewards actually arriving and playing, without allowing attendance alone to overpower the results on court.

3. Season Points

Season Points equal games won plus participation points. A 2–1 result therefore awards 2.5 points to the winner and 1.5 points to the loser. A 2–0 result awards 2.5 points to the winner and 0.5 to the loser.

4. Office Champ

Players are ranked by the Office Champ rating, which uses the Elo system. Beating a higher-rated player earns more rating points than beating somebody below you, while losing to a stronger player costs fewer points. This measures playing strength rather than simply rewarding whoever has played the most matches.

5. How the K-factor Works

The K-factor controls how quickly the Office Champ rating changes. A higher K-factor creates larger movements after every match, while a lower value makes the rankings more stable. This league uses a K-factor of 24: upsets are rewarded properly, but one unusual result should not completely rearrange the table.

6. Corrections

Incorrect results may be corrected by Dave's administrator login. When an old result is changed, the system recalculates every later Elo movement in chronological order so the current table remains consistent.
