Relational K Values for Elo Calculation
I woke up with a bit of an epiphany relating to the movie rating system I built. The biggest issue with the Elo system is how dynamic the top rankings are. So what I actually want is not an evenly fair system, I want favoritism for the top 50 ranking. So what I am doing is applying bands to the k-value based on the position of the higher ranked movie.
So a top 50 movie has a K value that is 25% of the total K value, which is used for a bottom ranked movie.
