I use the career performance tracker chart.
I reset the rankings every five cards for my legends and Indy Feds but for my GOTG fed I will run the entire season/year.

I do something similiar to Dalton ... +2 for pin/sub win +1 for DQ/count out -1 for DQ/ count out loss -2 for pin/sub loss This is what I do. I calculate the rankings every 5 cards and lead into each SuperCard (PPV) with a fresh list of the rankings.

When I used points for rankings it was +2 for win by pin/submission. +1 pt. c.o./d.q. win. Losses -2 or -1 pts. I think once you get a ranking list with whatever system you use, you have to be flexible. It's wrestling, most of the time no one ever talks about rankings or shows them on tv. It's just hey this guy is next in line. Otherwise I think it ends up all the same people being involved in the title picture.

See I am in 1987 of my legends fed and my only issue is if you start off poor it's very hard for you to go up unless you win a lower end title and get momentum. Each yeah seems like a totally different class so to speak at the top but they do seem to hang around for the whole year.
Example Don Muraco spent a couple years at the bottom of the rankings. I started 86 with him getting a world title shot, he won and then retaining it kept him at the top. Now new year and hes back at the bottom. I think my MegaTournament event needs to be more in the middle of the year or toward the end. But I wanted something simple and easy to use and q lot of it is me booking that determines things either way.

That's why I incorporate injuries into the mix. for example, Andre the Giant can be undefeated but suffer a major injury he can lose several ratings points either through forfeits or through working at less than 100%. Then he has to work his way buck up the standings when he returns. It adds a new element to it for me.

Couple things I did to stop the same folks from dominating was to (1) do rankings year-to-year, not career cumulative and (2) kept a tally of their record in the last 10 or so matches. Gave guys a chance to get on a roll and move up. I also looked at average points per match, which helped compare people mainly in singles with those who spent more time in tag matches.
As has been noted, you have to be a little flexible on this, but I was a big believer in earning the title shot at the main belt. Secondary title was a little bit more lenient.

Does anyone have a good system for assigning points for rankings? I started playing around with giving points for win/loss records, but saw some other posts about factoring in loss by DQ and other items. Curious if anyone has a recommendation for a system or could point me to any existing resource I could review. My current,simple setup (just to see how it would reflect where I "thought" guys would rank) was to give 3 points for a win and 1 point for a loss. I end up with a fair amount of under utilized wrestlers who fall to the bottom of the list so not sure I like this, but not sure how I would factor in someone who is 1-1 (4 points) compared to someone who is 0-4 (also 4 points). I enjoy the stat side of things so was hoping for a better system! Would match rating (based on fatigue tokens or otherwise) be helpful here? I saw one post about winning via finisher getting more points, that seemed like a good item to factor in since winning that way vs count out should count for something, right? I could probably argue that the win should be a win, and then the count out should hurt the loser too. I think I like adding a boost for 'better' finishes more if I go that route. Thanks, Anthony It's hard to explain by typing, but I'll try. I use a rating system similar to Rahl, but updated (this is going just on my Legends fed). My thought is a win versus Lou Thesz should mean more than a win versus Jim Duggan. What I've done is calculate my ratings and this is just the first set for Legends Animal 35 (57)
Bobby Heenan 14 (17)
Bobo Brazil 45 (46)
Bruiser Brody 51 (54)
Buddy Rogers 51 (52)
Curt Hennig 42 (46)
Gorgeous George 37 (40)
Harley Race 44 (47)
Hawk 41 (59)
Iron Sheik 40 (47)
Jim Duggan 32 (33)
Jimmy Snuka 52 (55)
Lou Albano 10 (18)
Lou Thesz 56 (58)
Nikolai Volkoff 31 (37)
Randy Savage 58 (61)
Rob Van Dam 49 (53)
Ted DiBiase 42 (45)
So I broke up the ratings into 5 sets. If you get a win against a wrestler with a 50 or over rating, you get +5 (2.5 for wins on a CO/DQ) From 40-49, you get +4 (2 for wins on a CO/DQ) from 30-39, you get +3 (1.5 wins on a CO/DQ) From 20-29, you get +2 (1 for wins on a CO/DQ) Under 20, you get +1 (.5 for wins on a CO/DQ)
Vice versa, a loss against Bobby Heenan should weigh more than a loss against Bruiser Brody Loss against a wrestler with a 50 or over rating, you get -1 (if you lose by DQ, it's -2) Loss from 40-49, you get -2 (if you lose by DQ, it's -3) Loss from 30-39, you get -3 (if you lose by DQ, it's -4) Loss from 20-29, you get -4 (if you lose by dQ ,its -5) Loss from a under 20, you get -5 (if you lose by DQ, its -6)
I hope that explains it and wasn't confusing, lol
This is really interesting. Would you be willing to share your formula?
