TABLE Tantrix Tournament Seeding List (based on Elő Ratings)

The current table tournament seeding list can be found below.

Elő ratings are the best estimate of your strength from the evidence of tournament games (TGs) you have played so far, but are less reliable when based on only a few TGs or tournaments so to give the benefit of the doubt to players whose ratings have been 'tested' over more TGs and should be more reliable, Elő ratings from less than 36 table TGs/less than 3 table tournaments are reduced when calculating your seeding points, SPs. To allow for the large confidence interval around Elő ratings based on very few games/tournaments or only on tournament games ("TGs") played long ago, the rating for seeding purposes is the player's Elő rating reduced by by various factors:

- a reduction of (250/36) for each 'missing' game if G is less than 36
- G is capped at 18 (50% of 36) for this purpose if the player has played in less than two tournaments, or 27 (75% of 36) for exactly two tournaments

To find out the reasons for the above adjustments and for further information about the seeding criteria, please look at the seeding method and FAQ page. The figures on that page relate to online tournament seeding points, but the table tournament seeding adjustments will move towards those numbers over time as the number of table tournaments played increases.

If you did not have an"established" Elő rating before, your SPs will have risen by more than your Elő rating to reflect the greater confidence in the accuracy of your Elő rating now that you have played more tournament games - so newer players' SPs may rise even if their Elő rating has fallen.

To see whether or not your rating has improved it is best to look at how your rating has changed rather than your position. This is because the constant influx of completely new players and newish players (whose seeding deductions disappear as they play more tournaments and their Elő rating becomes established) may drop you down the table even if your rating stays the same.

Actual seedings for any tournament will depend on which players enter - in addition, 2 x lobby ranking - 250 is used for your SPs if higher than the SPs shown here

Apparent ties are separated by looking at decimal places even though seeding points are shown here to the nearest whole number
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR THOSE SEEDING TABLE TOURNAMENTS
Because only a few players have played in more than two table tournaments so far, it is not yet practical to seed a table tournament using table seeding points only. So:
1) If an entrant has played in a table tournament before, you should use the HIGHER of their table or online seeding points, i.e. the numbers in the BLUE column below.
2) If an entrant has never played in a table tournament, you should use their online seeding points instead - i.e. the numbers in the purple column on the online seeding list.
3) For all of the above players and also for players who have never played in any type of tournament, you should also calculate 2 x all-time lobby ranking - 250.
4) If (2 x lobby ranking - 250) is HIGHER than the highest value calculated in steps 1) or 2) above, use that as the seeding points for that player instead.
5) If you would like advice or to be sent any of the tables sorted by nickname, name or country, please ask Steven, tournaments@tantrix.co.uk.
Advance notice: Now that the number of table tournaments is increasing, we are looking into changing the way online SPs are brought
 into the calculation so as to skew the adjusted table seeding points even more towards table tournament performance than they are now.
N.B. Players below are ORDERED by UNADJUSTED table tournament seeding points because this is the best measure of table tournament performance so far.
However, the notes above imply that the seeding order for any given table tournament may not match these positions exactly.
**NEW** As announced on the Aug table, the established table rating threshold has risen to 36 games/3 tournaments & now works the same way as online
SPs. The change in table seeding points due to this is shown in the "Chg due to Thd", the other changes shown are changes before the rise in threshold.
This avoids anomalies such as, for example, the one where Tamas was ahead of someone who got a higher rating than him in the one table tournament Tamas had played in.

Key:
Pos = position in the unadjusted table seeding list - remember that seedings for actual tournaments may also depend on online ratings, lobby rankings and exactly who enters
Position Chg = change in position over the period/since the date/during the year shown - big drops near the end are mainly due to new players slotting in above
Player Name = the player's real name
                       - (u) = took the option to withhold surname because they are aged under 18
                       - (w) = played in tournaments before full names were generally obligatory for adults and withheld surname
Trn Mstr = tournament master title if any - TGM = grand master, ITM = international master, TTM = table master, TTM* = TTM & ITM
Country = country under which the player's most recent tournament entry was registered
Trn Pld (T) = no. of tournaments in which the player played, 1999-present - ADVANCE WARNING these will be deweighted like games at some point
T Games Played = no. of table tournament games played as follows:
                               - In Yr = actual number of table tournament games played this year
                               - All Time = actual number of table tournament games played since the start of 2002
                               - Dewtd G = no. of games after adjusting for deweighting of games from previous years - this G is before any seeding adjustments
Elő = overall Elő rating, the first one is before any seeding point adjustments
Adjusted G = max G to be counted in full for seeding after limiting to 15 if just one if just one table tournament played
Add so G>=20 = games (G) to be added at rating less 200 (Elo) to make adjusted G up to 20, i.e. 20 less adjusted G
Adj. if G LE 5 = -100 * (6 - actual G) if actual G is 5 or less - takes into account that ratings from very few games can be VERY extreme
Seeding Points G = 20 or the actual G if higher
Seeding Points Pts = the player's seeding points - Adjusted G x actual Elo + Add so G>=20 x (Elo - 200) + other negative adjs if any
- NB. In deciding seedings for tournaments, if 2 x lobby ranking less 250 is higher, that will be used instead
Change = change in SPs over the period/since the date/during the year shown - big drops near the end are mainly due to new players slotting in above
        - expect particularly big rises as the no. of games a player has played goes up towards 36 (and/or the no. of tournaments goes up towards 3)
        - expect particularly big falls if the player has not played for a while
Actual online SPs = the player's online seeding points
Adj. online SPs = the player's online seeding points multiplied by a factor (currently 1, but this may reduce as we see how table ratings evolve relative to online ratings)
Adj. table SPs = the higher of the player table SPs and their adjusted online SPs - this is the main figure used to seed actual tournaments for the time being
