Cool - good work. So far (ie this weekend and last year in the EC) the rankings are predicting correctly most of the time, which is what should happen if they're accurate!

Once we get the reports in for the two matches, we should maybe put a sentence at the bottom of each showing ratings changes for each team, and make that a feature on all future reports from 16/18-a-side internationals.

That sounds like a good idea. More work for you guys :-) would help make more people aware of the Ranks tho and maybe even add a little extra incentive to some of the matches.

I wiil try to continue to put out the various possible outcomes prior to these matches as well.

The important point is "MOST OF THE TIME" the system will predict the outcome, and if you go back even further it does just that, MOST OF THE TIME!

Nah, it isn't too much more work if we've worked out the possibilities beforehand. It definitely adds a bit of extra interest.

New Zealand 53.84 27
Ireland 47.93 +0.56 31
Nauru 47.06 13
United States 46.53 29
Denmark 44.21 +0.75 35
South Africa 43.92 16
Samoa 41.85 18
Great Britain 40.45 -0.56 37
Sweden 39.06 -0.75 18
Canada 38.01 29
Germany 34.37 9
Japan 33.33 18
Finland 29.02 12

Note: Denmark has snuck into 7th place over South Africa.

Provisional Teams No Change

Croatia 40.61 4
Tonga 40.00 3
Peace Team 39.88 5
Iceland 35.64 4
China 34.00 5

*last value = games played.

The Rank and rate for each is correct if Denmark defeated Sweden by more than 40 points.

Howdy Folks.

The new Rates for Ireland and Great Britain should actually be 47.48 and 40.99 respectively. The Rating Change for these teams was only 0.11 and -0.11 respectively. No change in Rank for either nation. I must have used an incorrect value some where on the home computer last night to get previously published result. My apologies.

Note that we'll have an "official" WFN release (story) of these results in the next few days, once Cam and I have both had a chance to double check each other's numbers.

Yep! Stuffed up again. Great Britain's Rating Points should be 40.99. No b----y idea where that 43.42 came from. My wife has been telling me for weeks to go and get new specs. Maybe I'd better take up her advice.
