Rating Scale Adjustable in Multiplayer

[gstelmack]

In a multiplayer league, each coach can change their ratings scale option to whatever they want, rather than it being locked by the commish. This is a huge deal for MP leagues.

Why is a huge deal? What does it matter what the owner changes the ratings he sees? Other than being able to tell that a '5' on a 1-10 scale is a '56' on a 1-100 scale.

Other than being able to tell that a '5' on a 1-10 scale is a '56' on a 1-100 scale.[/QUOTE] It's a big deal, because everyone participating in the league should be using the same settings. A choice was made for the FOFC-BBCF league to use 1-20 for ratings and 1-5 for evaluation. The rationale was that 1-100 took too much of the guesswork out of the equation, since most of the time a player with an 76 rating would be chosen over a player with a 72. But with 1-20, both players might be listed as 15, which makes the coach do a bit more research before making a decision. That is why it can be a big deal. I think it was the 1.10 release that moved this setting from the initial setup screen to an in game option. It should be changeable for single player, but should be an option to lock for multiplayer.
