Greetings Smash 64 players! The Smash 64 Backroom is going to be kicking off a new ratings project designed to promote friendly competition among Smash 64's online community.
We will be calculating ratings using an adaptation of the Elo Ratings System. The basic premise of Elo ratings is that they compute relative skill levels using tournament results. Unrated players begin at 1200. Your rating increases when you win and decreases when you lose. The bigger the rating differential between you and your opponent, the more your rating will change after a match.
All TOs may apply for their tournaments to be rated! In order for your tournament to be rated, it must follow these guidelines:
Even though regions cannot be mixed for rated events, the ratings list will be universal. A rating calculated vs. European opponents is just as valid as a rating calculated vs. American opponents.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about making your tournament an official SBR rated event!

The bigger the rating differential between you and your opponent, the more your rating will change after a match.
All TOs may apply for their tournaments to be rated! In order for your tournament to be rated, it must follow these guidelines:
- Recommended Backroom rules must be used, including the stage striking procedure and stage list.
- Tournaments must be seeding according to rating. Obviously this won't apply until there is a ratings database.
- Tournaments must be submitted as completed tio files to nintendude1189@gmail.com. Click here to get the latest release of tio tournament organizer.
- All names in your tio file must be entered in such a way that there is no confusion about who the players are.
- All entrants of your tournament must be from the same continent (with reasonable exceptions). Having a single European in a North American tournament will invalidate it to be rated. Likewise, having Americans in a European tournament will invalidate it.
Even though regions cannot be mixed for rated events, the ratings list will be universal. A rating calculated vs. European opponents is just as valid as a rating calculated vs. American opponents.
