GA mis match making

Yeah GP is a horrible way of creating matches, but they want an algorithm that is basically set and forget.

If they had to take individual characters (Revan, Traya, Nest etc) into calculation then they'd be spending a ton of time changing it everytime a new powerful toon comes out.

It could be better, but will never be perfect.

My problem is that it could easily be better/improved. Just put weighted multipliers on character GP and ship GP:

Adjusted GP = x(toon GP) + (1-x)(ship GP)
x = total points from toons divided by total points

Essentially, if characters can provide 75% of the total possible points then characters would provide 75% of the adjusted GP.

If you apply this formula to the current GA, characters provide 100% of the total points so they would provide 100% of the adjusted GP, or you would be matched on just your character GP.
