But, Elo is a 1 on 1 rating system isn't it? How would i implement it for 9v9 and 6v6?

@MR_SLIN: What is an ELO rating system?

Hello! I'm Marty, the co-creator of TF2Center.

TF2Center will be a new TF2Lobby site that will launch sometime this April or May.

I need some help from you guys, to figure out how to rank people. What we're planning to do, is make it so that the teams will be made to be as fair as possible when the lobby is full. That means, we want equal skill levels on both sides of the game to prevent steamrolling/teamstacking.

My question is, how can we make ranking system for players? We were thinking using the logs from the servers to make a 1/10 star system for players, but how should we rate the classes from their gameplay? How would it be the most balanced?

Questions regarding TF2Center can also be asked in this thread :)

Thanks for the feedback. This site is all about the community. We want all of your suggestions for the site, and we have already taken quite a few!

The launch for the site is most likely going to be in early 2013, probably something like March. But if anyone of you out there is or knows a web designer, it might help speed up the process! Please add me on steam to discuss if you do, since it would really help!

Hello everyone!

My buddy and I are developing a new tf2 matchmaking site, similar to the well known tf2lobby.

After playing a decent amount of lobbies, we grew tired of the buggy and slow site, and decided to make our own.

The new site will be called tf2center, and will focus on the same as tf2lobby, but also feature tournaments, and a decent ranking system, so you can play with people with around your exact skill level.

Prizes will also be featured, for winning a tournament. You can get a random matchmaked team tournament, or an already set-up team tournament. We could charge an entree fee of 1 Reclaimed metal per team, and the winners would win a few refined!

We will also have a bunch of stock gameservers, so anyone can create a lobby without needing to have a server of their own. A better reporting system will also be applied.

My question is, if this idea seems interesting to you, or if the regular tf2lobby.com is good enough, paired with the normal tf2 tournaments?

Also all suggestions would be appreciated!

The site can be found here(under construction) http://tf2center.com
