Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Drumm - 22-02-2011
Code for the ELU Rating system, explained here: http://mcompute.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=764&pid=6363#pid6363
Code requires math.h to be imported for the pow() and round() functions.
Updated for a who's won picker. Also for those wondering (Pack3t) I've done some thinking, and there is a technical limit. When it gets to a point where the percentage chance of the other is > 0.5% (Due to the round function, so really 0%) then nothing changes.
This program also allows for you to enter a long string, E.G I could enter 111 to signify Pack3t won 3 times or 2222 to signify Sharn won 4 times.

Updated the code so it doesn't produce warnings when compiling. I did this by changing \% for %% in the printf statements.
RE: Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Drumm - 24-02-2011
UPDATE: Changed my example of how the code can be used so that it allows you to pick a winner, see first post.
RE: Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Drumm - 27-02-2011
UPDATE: Added a configuration.txt option, It MUST be formatted like so:
Username
Baserating
Username
Baserating
Etc. etc.

Mark
10000000000000
RE: Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Drumm - 28-02-2011
I haven't got my same file with me, But if I remember correctly it's something like:
Pack3t
700
Sharn
500
Latch
600
Mark
250
Drumm
100
RE: Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Mark - 28-02-2011
Wait.. Does that mean Sharn is more likely to get rated over myself and you?
RE: Two functions for the ELU Rating system - Pack3t SynAck3r - 02-03-2011
It would appear that is the case.....but yet not over me.
As a side note it would seem someone quietly took a lot of suggestions from an old fart, good times.

You were my guidance on this Pack3t :tongue. When you ain't 100% confident in what you're doing, it's good to have someone that can say "Yeah, that will work"
