Spell-Weavers Assembly of Dietersheim: SWAD Online


SWAD Online


Clan SWAD is inviting you to join Online League play. The idea is very simple: We agree which league to join (League#ID), and all join at the same time (to make sure it will not fill up before we all get in).

Player info for current CSP league.

CSP picks for redeem.

Online DCI ratings.

Here report claims for reimbursement.

We then all throw one booster into a pool, and at the end all boosters won from that league by all of us are also thrown into the same pool. The boosters are then re-distributed to the players according to this scheme:

Relative distribution key is 1 : 2 : 3 : . . . : N --- (for 3 or more players)
Relative distribution key is 2 : 3 --- (for 2 players)

where N is the number of players. Example: for 4 players the player ending last will get 1/10 of the boosters, the second last will get 2/10, the runner up will get 3/10, the top cat will get 4/10. "Fractional boosters" will not be cut in pieces, but will go to the one with the largest fractional booster. Example: 4 players that win no prizes get to share 4 boosters. Last one gets 0.4 booster, second last gets 0.8, runner up gets 1.2, winner gets 1.6 booster. I.e. first winner and runner up gets one each. Largest fraction (0.8) is held by second last so he/she gets one, and the last booster goes to the winner who has a fraction of 0.6 which is larger than the two other players (0.4 and 0.2). If two fractions are identical then the two players decide by playing a match with the League deck. This match will also count towards the usual SWAD limited rankings.

The idea here is that if one player is lucky and strikes gold in the form of very, very good cards then all players get to share a bit of the luck because the many cool prize boosters go into the common pool. On the other hand, if all players get lousy cards, there is still an incentive to play and to do well, because there are always "some" boosters in the pool.

For the purposes of distribution of boosters, we count only "match points", not the tiebreak points. If two players end at identical match points, then after the league is over the two players will have a final "play-off" best of 3 match. That match will determine the relative ranking for the booster distribution (and will also count towards the usual SWAD limited rankings).

If/when players actually happen to play against each other during league play, those results will also be recorded as normal limited type matches for limited and combined SWAD ratings.

Turning online cards to cardboard

It is possible to get our online cards turned into cardboard, but only if we have complete sets. Therefore we keep track of which online rares we have, which we are still missing. To help making some fair trades to get the ones we are missing in the end, I am also trying to make a list of trade values.


In addition to the booster competition described above, we also record final rankings of SWAD leagues, and compute the "week-weighted mean rank" of our SWAD league players:

Here we list results of individual leagues. In some cases a league does not have a full set of 256 players. In those cases the "Rnk256" is calculated as the Rank re-scaled to 256 league players. The weighted mean Rank is calculated as the mean of "Rnk256" weighted by the number of weeks each league is running. It is a "sliding average" computed over the (ideally) past 25 weeks of play. In reality the sliding average is calculated over the latest N entries in the table for each player where N is chosen so that the sum of weeks is "equal to or larger than, but as close to 25 as possible".
