Sounds a lot like MX-S.

More likely a World Ranking based order.

The kind of match we believe will be the end of the world in table tennis: http://www.tennis.com/pro-game/2018/01/belinda-bencic-soars-through-venus-inside-20-year-olds-statement-win-australian-open-2018-wta-tour-williams/71262/

How so? And how is T2's success being measured? What are the stats that show it was a success?

My first degree is in Electrical Engineering and I have achieved a 2000 rating in both Chess and Table Tennis. I am extremely familiar with ELO systems and normal distributions, definitely not as technically versed with them as I was 20 years ago but well versed enough to know when someone who...

Ma Long always loses to FZD in Super league. Maybe you didn't like the way the match looked but it has always looked this bad to me. In elimination matches, Ma Long tends to be sharper and focus in Fan Zhendong's weaknesses much more especially his forehand flick gap and short pushing to get...

You are applying apples to oranges as zeio and brokenball have pointed out. But I think that is sufficient for most people who know enough about these things to understand why you likely don't understand these issues at all and are fudging them in some way.

Maybe you can explain to me how and why these probabilities should be applied to a system that is not an ELO system? LEt's skip the why for a second and focus on the how.

ERT, You made a very interesting claim that that Ma Long has a 15% chance of beating Dima based on the current rankings. How did you arrive at this result? Thanks.

That's probably where the estimate came from, and WTTC is the same audience for this, maybe smaller but not by much.

Happily looking forward to the Team World Cup, hope it is a great success!!

Go with faster rubbers on the wood blade. IF you have already do that, then just buy a faster wood blade. Carbon speed is not for everyone.

Over at mytt, people are pointing out that the ITTF system is not rating players or assigning them strength. In fact the old ranking system had a rating component and a bonus points component to get to its ranking. The new system is ranking tour performance. There is no rating component to...

Accurate at doing what? ELO systems are used in many countries, especiallyin chess where they were originally developed. Ratings Central had a more accurate ELO system than the current USATT system. But can you believe that for many reasons, Some political, but some also based in the fact that...

Try again - flawed by what measure? You have to decide what the criteria is for assessing the system before you call it flawed. Did Fan Zhendong have a better 2017 on the ITTF tour than Dima? Maybe yes. But maybe not. No one won more tournaments than Dima did last year. Is Fan Zhendong a...

Lots of players must have been happy with Timo Boll and Zhang Jike keeping high rankings through lengthy periods of inactivity. While they would do the best they could to play many events and come out with only a decent rating at best to show for it. That said, you cannot sell a tour if the...

NOTE: My goal is not to be an engineer (been there, done that). My goal is to help people improve their table tennis. Again, "aerodynamics" is a loaded term. That said, my main point is that *trying* to keep the blade angle steady when looping can mean a lot of things - the blade angle is...

You want to create yours? You could always use Ratings Central for the calculation and just store your match results.
