Dec. 21, 2014 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | You are missing something: This Message Board post from a couple of hours ago on the same topic ... __________ We temporarily adjust ratings for the TOC teams to what the teams were at the time they earned their bid .. Vacar Stars is playing in the TOC as a 70-Major ... The rating has been restored to Major for that tournament only and will revert to 70-Major+ after the TOC ... You might observe that phenomenon for multiple teams that qualified for the TOC at a rating below their actual rating across all ages ... |
Dec. 21, 2014 rtaven Men's 70 43 posts | the only reason i asked was the tournament was in oct.2014 and there rating was dec 5 2014 after toc and looks like they were rerated to major and not major+.the toc's are over for 2014 so i still must be missing something. i read all the posts.will there rating be changed again after end of year or will they remain major? thanks |
Dec. 21, 2014 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Rtaven, check the "Automatic Move Up" thread. This topic is discussed and answered there. Your "old" Virginia teammate from back in the day, Larry Lopez. |

Dec. 21, 2014 SSUSA Staff 3483 posts | rtaven - There are temporary rating changes for many teams to get the "proper ratings" in place for the upcoming TOC in February, including the Vacar Stars ... Teams play in the TOC at their rating when they earned their bid to the TOC ... Those teams were temporarily changed back to the rating they will play at in Florida ... After the TOC, the ratings will be reinstated to the proper levels ... This is done only to accommodate the TOC tournament administration for scheduling, pairings and related event-specific items ... Your Bailey Talent Cavaliers will not be going to the TOC, so this temporary, one-event-only re-rating should be of limited, if any, interest to you unless, of course, we somehow forget to move them back to 70-Major+ after it ends ... |
