I know, but if I was a p1600 player 300 days ago, I may be only a 1200 player today.
Somebody posted this guy already...User 311042 The highest rating is a rating he achieved while provisional.

it should not consider your ratigns as a preliminary. It should consider your highest rting AFTER 20 games (mine would be 1480, much much more accurate.)

I will shortly make a slight amendment to this 365 day rule, so the new tournament entry critieria will be:
(MAX(CurrentRating,HighRating-100) + HighRating) / 2
This will mean that it is possible to entry tournaments that are 50 points below your highest rating, if you rating has dropped 100 points or more from its height.
Where it has dropped fewer t ...[text shortened]... s, your eligibility will be based on the average of your current rating and your highest rating.
(MAX(CurrentRating,HighRating-100) + HighRating) / 2

Whichever is the greater of Current Rating or Highest ever Rating less 100

This doesn't seem to be working for me.. My stats say
Rating 1307
Highest Rating 1362 (Last 365 Days)
Tournament Entry Rating 1334
So I should be able to enter the Xmas grouped random 1200-1350 based on both my current and my tourny entry rating, but it says I can't, because of my 365 day score. What's up with that? Shouldn't it use the tourny entry score?

How does one find the date one peaked? One day after collecting skulls for about 3 years I claimed all my wins and made it to 1507. Now in nearly 5 years here I doubt I've ever had 5 days above 1400 never mind 1500. My average rating - far more salient I would have thought would be about 1250. Yet I punshed for claiming a bunch of Skulls back around Easter.

Adled my brain as well.
Current tourni's are still using the old 365 day system for now by the looks of it.

We are in the same boat. Think the rating adjustment needs to be nearer 200 rather than 100.
Maybe we need to start a petition 😉

* it is a little bit more weighted towards your highest rating though. Depnds on just how much worse you are than your highest rating.
I saw a tournament with a 900 rated player in it, while restricting it to 1300-1450 - - - so yeah maybe a little bit more weight towards the current.

It is in two parts. If your current rating is more than 100 below your max rating then the formula is (highest -100) + highest divided by 2.
If your current rating is lower than your highest but by not more than 100 then the formula is current+highest divided by 2.
This means that no-one gets a tourni rating less than 50 spots below their max (not 100)............I think!!
