Suggested changes to Weekly Online Tournaments

Post by Jussi Koskela »

I have now setup a server "World Cup - Experimental" which introduces my suggestion of the new structure of Weekly Online Tournaments.

Each tournament will consists of:
  • 4 ski flying hills
  • 22 large hills
  • 6 normal hills
The hills will be chosen randomly based on odds derived from the historical data from real World Cup / Continental Cup / FIS Cup / World Championship / Ski Flying World Championship / Olympic competitions. Oberstdorf HS137, Garmisch-Partenkirchen HS140, Innsbruck HS128 and Bischofshofen HS142 will be competed always using the KO mode.

The available hills and the relative odds of their occurence:

Ski flying hills
  • Planica-HS240-SLO: 13.14
  • Vikersund-HS240-NOR: 8.50

Imagine getting Örnsköldsvik, Pyeongchang or Eau Claire in first possible WOT... :lol:

But anyway, good change to be honest. Finally no medium hills on WOTs.

Sounds really great, let's play and see how it works. Thanks for the effort!

EDIT: Played the cup couple times today and the hill selection is great! Very good mix of originals and customs.

I made small adjustments to the list of hills / odds to take the Olympics and World Championships into account and to fix some errors. The changes are listed in my original post. "World Cup - Experimental" server has been updated accordingly.

Are you also planning to update the non stop world cup and warm up rooms with this new selection system? Would be nice :)

All the servers which have a pool of 71 hills are already using the new system.

I already classified Trondheim HS138 as a retro hill, so it is part of the retro hills server.
But it's still also part of the WOTs (like few other recently rebuilt/still under construction hills ). Once/if we get new rebuilt versions of the hills to DSJ4 I will replace them in WOT.

The odds for all hills have been updated according to latest competition data.
