| − | == CSW Ratings ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Tournaments played to CSW in North America and sanctioned by NASPA are rated under the <a href="http://www.scrabbleplayers.org/w/SOWPODS_rating_system">NASPA SOWPODS</a> rating system. Thus:
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Playing a CSW tournament has no effect on your regular NASPA rating.'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | As well as the national systems, all CSW tournaments in North America are eligible to be rated by the <a href="http://www.wespa.org">World English Scrabble Players Association (WESPA)</a>, the governing body of the English game worldwide, under their international system. In other words, if you play a CSW tournament, you can get a world ranking. However, non-NASPA CSW tournaments in North America cannot be WESPA rated.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The <a href="http://www.scrabbleplayers.org/w/SOWPODS_rating_system">NASPA SOWPODS</a> system is described further on this wiki, but is essentially identical to the regular rating. Those with a regular rating start with that rating under NASPA SOWPODS, but with zero games. Existing tournament software such as <a href="http://www.math.utoronto.ca/jjchew/software/tsh">tsh</a> and <a href="http://www3.telus.net/director">Director!</a> can handle this. Hence, adding a CSW division to a tournament is straightforward.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The WESPA system uses a different formula to NASPA, but the resulting distribution of ratings is broadly similar. A WESPA rating's value is slightly higher than NASPA, so that, e.g., 1950 in WESPA is more like 1900 in NASPA.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Several players are rated under two or more of the rating systems. Here, we list all players who have a NASPA SOWPODS and NASPA rating, plus their WESPA rating if they have one. Currently, this list is compiled manually, and is up to date for the dates shown.
