How long does it take to get a tournament completion rate?

No matter how many tournaments I play, my completion rate stays as "Unknown". I have mainly played the automated ones but I wouldn't have thought it would matter. This has been the case for months, yet no percentage. I have been playing tournaments over those months - not masses of them, probably 1-2 a week on average.

It matter mainly because I want to play the TCR80 tournaments and because I don't have a percentage it rejects me.

Any ideas what I can do to get a valid percentage?

Thanks,

Ian

I think it's 10 per 30 days, robot tourneys don't count.

Hi,

You need 10 tournaments in the past 30 days. The Express are a fast way to get there. Any completed tourney is +1, even if you join as a sub and finish the tourney instead of the original player. Robot tournaments do not count. The completion rates are computed nightly.

You have played 7 tourneys during the past month - so you only need 3 more :)

If I register for a tournament and don't play it (either because I am already playing/subbing in another tournament) or because I am not online - does that count as a negative? I am asking because I think I have played 10+ tournaments in the last 2 days, but my %age still shows as 'Unknown'.

No, if you haven't actually been seated in the tourney it will not count. Also, we tweaked the formula since this post was made. now you need 10 tourneys in the past 60 days, and robot tournaments count too if you complete them. Unfinished bot tournaments do not count.

I am pretty sure I have completed 10 in the last 2 days. Hopefully by tomorrow, my TCR is updated.

That's a shame... I think you should get dinged if you are not available to play in a tournament for which you have registered.

Maybe for pairs, because you're upsetting your partner. But why would it matter in individuals?

Zero tournaments from June 18 - August 24 is definitely not enough to generate a completion rate.


He posted his question more than a year back :)

I certainly think it matters if the player took a spot away from someone who was actually available to play (if the tournament reached its maximum enrollment).

What's the rationale behind calculating the TCR for last 2 months. What if someone plays just a couple of tournaments every month but completes 100% of them. His TCR will always be unknown. If the TCR is a way to determine who won't run away in the middle, then a better way would be calculate last 'N' tournaments played without any time period coming into the calculation.
