Princess Place Riichi Night Seasonal Scoreboard

"You Can Never Hold Back Spring" Spring Season

Details are coming soon, but one big change will be the rating system. Spirit and attendance points are finally retired but new players will start with a presumptive rating of +51 which will go up or down after playing a game of mahjong based only on their placement. For a four or more player game winners advance +4 points, second place advances +2 points, and last place loses -2 points. For san-ma (three player games) winning is +4, second place gets +/- zero and third place is -2. This is roughly modeled on the way Tenhou awards kyuu and dan ranks.

Past Seasons

First "Totally Chill" Winter Season (January 1 - March 18, 2025)

The chill first winter season still rewarded spirit and attendence. While preserving attendance and spirit points we introduced "uma" to reward players based on their end-of-game placement. As a result players who came in first place recieved some very large point/rating increases over the course of the season. Unfortuneately I think the uma neutralized the importance of avoiding fourth place. Look for some changes in the rating system for the upcoming season.

Final top 3:

The season ended with Goul in first place for a second season in a row. Hanajo, the game host performed much better and earned a respectable second place. (Thanks to being the host she never missed a game). Season newcomer Interesting Interloper edged stalwart CaveDyke out of third place. But don't expect CaveDyke to take that lying down. Expect to see some exciting upsets and comebacks in the upcoming Spring Season.

Procedure for end game score.

Take the raw score at the end of the game and subtract 25000, (the starting points). Divide by 1000 and round to the nearest integer (0.5 rounds down). Apply a modest uma:

1st Place = +5
2nd Place = +3
3rd Place = +1
[if there are more than 4 players, all other placements before last +0 ]
last Place = -9

This is a relatively small uma compared to more competitive enviromnents; I still want spirit and attendence to be valuable.

Every player's seasonal rating will increase by their final end game score (if it is positive) plus any spirit and attendence points.

Let's all have a fun chill winter!!!

First "Forgiving" Autumn Season (October 20-December 18, 2024)

~A season of joy and forgiveness.

At the end of a game, players points are converted by subtracting 25000 and dividing by 1000. This should result in four scores that add up to zero.

Each player's rating is the sum of all their postive end game scores plus 1 point just for showing up and spirit points for other contributions to the joyful mahjong experience.
