Template:Weight/doc

This template calculates the weight of a placement in a tournament. Achievement tables display the top 10 results by weight and sorts them by date in descending order.

Formula
Tier Value * Prize Won / Placement (* 0.65 if online)

Tier Value

 * Premier = 8
 * Major = 4
 * Minor, Monthly = 2
 * Misc, Weekly, Qualifier, Show Match = 1

Placement
If passed in a range, i.e. 3-4, the formula uses the best placement, i.e. 3.

A simple victory (in e.g. a showmatch or two-team qualifier; placement ) will be treated as if the team would have finished 2nd in an ordinary multi-team tournament.

Examples
1st place in a Minor LAN tournament winning $1,000. 2 * 1,000 / 1 = 2000

2nd place in a Weekly online tournament winning $300. 1 * 300 / 2 * 0.65 = 97.5

5th-8th place in a Major LAN tournament winning $4,000. 4 * 4,000 / 5 = 3,200

3-4th place in a Major online tournament winning $2,500. 4 * 2,500 / 3 * 0.65 = 2166,67
