TTaiR Rating and league points system used for scoring leagues in WLS:
(In WLS the manager gives new players an estimated Rating on a scale of 15 to 50 which factors into WLS’s estimated rating algorithm. After 8 matches in the WLS system players will obtain an official TTaiR Rating.If a player is at the professional level of 50 or higher email us at info@wlstt.com for manual adjustment. )
3.3 TTaiR Rating System
(These tables serve as a reference for users to understand certain outcomes based on their rating spread within the TTaiR system. The rating spread is a measure of the range within which a user's rating rewards and penalties can vary which measures player performance and controls seeding for leagues and ranking in the WLS System.)

3.4g HAT TRICK BONUS+ +.52 RATING POINTS (The Bonus in our league ensures accurate player seeding. If a player defeats three opponents who are within 1.5 rating points of their own rating, they receive a .52 rating bonus. This system helps to more accurately place players who consistently win against closely ranked competitors, ensuring a fairer and more competitive league structure.
3.4h. Tie-Breaker Mechanism in WLS: (The WLS employs a unique tie-breaker mechanism, utilizing a specialized formula that integrates the TTaiR Rating Points into the final League Point Tally. This formula adjusts a player's league points by adding points won or subtracting points lost during matches, essentially preventing ties by producing distinctive decimal outcomes. A higher TTaiR Rating complicates maintaining a top position due to diminished points for wins and increased deductions for losses, especially against lower-ranked players. For example, if Seed A and Seed F tie with equal league points, Seed A, with a higher TTaiR Rating, is disadvantaged, likely losing the tie due to the formula's scaled point adjustments. This system introduces a dynamic challenge, making league dominance strenuous for top-rated players while providing lower-ranked players a spirited platform to ascend in the standings, ensuring a competitive and engaging league experience for all participants.)
