Spent a couple hours and built a site to track server rankings until gw2 does there own or something better comes along. Nothing special, no spam, just server rankings in a nice mobile friendly layout. Making updates throughout the weekend.
For now I’ll track Mike’ server ranking thread and update along with graphical data over time and rank position changes.
few minor updates, initial post updated with changelog. Looks like were starting to get more data from Mike, and will be adding in some fancy graphs along with updated data as were about a week behind right now.
And if you’re looking to add features, I think it would be helpful to have a percentage score, or ratio between scores, or some sort of graphical comparison. Nevermind, I just saw your latest post.
If you go back and look at scores from previous match ups it is pretty telling.
Prime example, On sept 9 Dragonbrand completely demolishes their 2 opponents. gate of Madness gets thoroughly trounced by their 2. Then on Sept 10 Dragonbrand and GoM are pitted against each other and GoM destroys them basically doubles them up n score.
So is that server transfers? Bad queues keeping the guys who did well out?
Hard to explain, but when you look at that, and other match ups and scores it is plain to see it is way too early to be setting up tiers right now and pitting certain servers against each other for a week at a time.
If that isnt enough look at Crystal desert and Maguuma head to head back to back nights On Sept 8 Crystal desert crushes them, then on Sept 9 maguuma crushes them. How do you explain that one? And how can you seed/tier/rank them off those kind of results?
