Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to commonly asked questions

Rating System

What is the Elo rating system?

The Elo rating system is a method for calculating team strength based on match performance. The same system is used in chess and other sports worldwide. Every team starts with a rating of 1500, and the rating goes up when you win and down when you lose.

What is the starting rating for new teams?

Every new team starts with a rating of 1500. This is a neutral rating that allows the system to calculate the team's true strength after a few matches.

Why did my rating change a lot/a little?

The amount of rating change depends on several factors: (1) Rating difference between the two teams - winning against a stronger team = bigger gain, (2) Goal margin - winning by a large margin = more points, (3) Match type - friendly vs competitive, (4) K-Factor - maximum rating change limit.

Can my rating go down even if I win?

No. Your rating will always go up when you win and down when you lose. Only the amount of change varies depending on factors like rating difference and goal margin.

What is K-Factor?

K-Factor is the maximum rating change limit per match. For GengMantap, the K-Factor is 32. This means the maximum rating can go up or down by 32 points in a single match.

Match Logging

How do I log a match?

Go to the 'Log Match' menu, select the opponent team, enter the score, date, and venue. After submitting, the system will send a confirmation request to the opponent team.

Can I log past matches?

Yes, you can log matches that have already been played. However, the match must be within the last 7 days. Matches older than that cannot be logged to prevent manipulation.

What happens after I log a match?

After you log a match, the system will send a confirmation request to the opponent team. They have 48 hours to confirm or dispute. If there's no response after 48 hours, the match will be auto-confirmed.

Can I edit a match after logging?

No, you cannot edit after submitting. If there's an error, the opponent team can dispute and an admin will review. This is to prevent data manipulation.

Why do I have to wait for confirmation?

This double-confirmation system ensures that match results are valid and agreed upon by both teams. This prevents manipulation and ensures the integrity of the rating system.

Match Confirmation

How long do I have to confirm a match?

The opponent team has 48 hours to confirm or dispute a match. After 48 hours, if there's no response, the match will be auto-confirmed and ratings will be updated.

What happens if I dispute?

If you dispute, the match will go into 'Disputed' status and an admin will review. Both teams can upload evidence (photos, videos) to support their claims. The admin will make a decision based on the evidence.

Can I cancel confirmation after confirming?

No, you cannot. After confirmation, the match is final and ratings have been updated. If there's a serious issue, contact an admin for review.

I didn't receive a confirmation email?

Make sure your email is correct in your profile. Check your spam/junk folder. You can also check pending confirmations in your team dashboard.

Teams

How do I register a team?

Click 'Create Team' in the dashboard. Enter the team name, select a division, area, and upload a logo (optional). Each user can create and manage multiple teams.

Can I change my team name?

Yes, go to Team Settings to edit the name, logo, and other information. However, name changes will be recorded for transparency.

What's the difference between divisions (Open, Semi Veteran, Veteran)?

Divisions are age/experience categories: Open (all ages), Semi Veteran (35+), Veteran (40+), Under 18 (under 18 years old). Ratings are calculated separately for each division.

Can one team play in multiple divisions?

No. Each team must choose only one division. If you want to play in a different division, you need to create a new team.
