A reasonable framework? No?

In Response To: Dropper solution? (Tom Keith)

Bottom line…. Drops have to be accounted for. The system must assume, until a "dropper" is determined to be a true "dropper" that it was not a drop.

In Bob's example adjust the dropper up and the drop-ee down. Or decide to only adjust the dropper down (if below 50%), or only the drop-ee up (if a favorite), or any thing you want to do.

Or… is it better to have people dropping and never having matches resolved?

This certainly addresses the most common drop situation where you're 90% to win a match and the bastard drops you. Right?

We're not looking for a perfect solution. Can someone game this method of addressing the drops? Sure.

But it probably fixes 95% of the issue. And certainly addresses the worst situations in a way beneficial to the system and the person dropped.

Isn't this a reasonable framework?

Or am I WAY off base?
